 Power Plant Started
(. L. P. Company Officials Present at Ceremonies at Devon New Generator to Produce 5000 Kilowatts

Milford, Conn, June 17-State of- flcials and officers of The Connecti- cut Light and Power Company were present yesterday afternoon when Col. Samuel H. Fisher, chair man of the State Defense Council turned the first shovel of soil for an addition to the company's Devon power plant The addition will house a huge new generator capable of producing 45,000 kilowatts of electricity. The plant at present has capacity of 75,000 kilowatts.
 "This is one more instance of Connecticut's preparedness for the national defense program" Col. Fisher asserted at the ceremonies. Reliable sources of electricity are of the utmost importance to the States industrial production and a substantial amount of that pro- duction Is now devoted to the needs of our national defense program"
 Chairman Joseph w. Alsop of the Public Utilities Commission said:
 "This new unit will help greatly in keeping Connecticut's power supply ahead of the needs of the State. Connecticut utilities have followed a policy of expanding fa- cilities in anticipation of needs, ra- ther than waiting for the needs to demand additional facilities. This polcy has resulted In Connecticut's s present position of being able to furnish all power necessary, instead of being in the situation of some sections of the country where there is a reported shortage of electricity"
 It was explained by o. L. Camp bell, president of The Connecticut Light and Power Company, that the additional power from the Devon plant will be available almost any, where in the State through the inter-connected network of trans- mission lines which covers the ter- ritory. While the Devon plant

 CATHOLIC AdIDSHIPMEN
 Last week we wrote of the Cath olic cadets ct West Point. At the United States Naval Academy one sixth of the midshipmen are Cath olics. According to the 1899 figures given by United States Senator David I. Walsh, Chairman of the Naval Affairs Committee of the Senate, of the 2,312 midshipner then ct Annapolis, 1860 attended religious services on the Academy grounds, 264 attended seven Prot estant churches in Annapolis and 406 requested permission to attend Catholic services. Of these 406,395 were Catholics.
 St. Mary's Church, in the care of the Redemptorist Fathers in the city of Annapolis, is the church of the Catholic midshipmen. Every Sunday morning the Catholic party marches off to Mass in formation and when they arrive five of the Fathers are available to hear their confessions, This convenience makes possible frequent Coninunions and the rec ord shows that ninety-three per cent of the men receive at least once a month.
 During the evening recreation every Sunday the Newman Club holds its meeting. There is always a Catholic speaker and up to 200 of the men attend and take part in the informal discussions. On Sunday afternoons during Lent from one to two hundred of the Catholic mid- shipmen attend the Stations of the Cross at St. Mary's Church. But the outstanding Catholic event of the year is the annual Communion breakfast held on the morning of Thanksgiving Day. After High Mass at St. Mary's where, as on Sundays, they serve at the altar and sing in the choir, the nidshipmen and the Catholic Navar officers at the Academy march to 8 Annapolis hotel where Q prominent Catholic laynan or prelate Is always the principal speaker.
 The faith of the Catholics at Annapolis is very much alive. Proud of their faith they practice 1t with edification and manly piety. One incident often related by Senator Walsh Illustrates both their faith and their devotion.
 On the occasion of an official visit to the Academy, he stopped at one of the classrooms where the boys were dressed in fatigue uniforms and around the neck of one of the boys he noticed a chain with a Miraculous Medal attached to 1t. It was fully exposed, though not intentionally. Calling the midshipman aside he asked him about the medal, what 1t was and why he wore 1t. Briefly the young man informed him and then added proudly, "Every Catholic midshipman at the Academy wears one of these"

 'The preliminary engineering es- timate," MT. Campbell added, "in- dicates that The Connecticut Light and Power Company will spend ap- proximately four and half million dollars on the entire project, whic hextends pretty well through out the state.'
