For instance, we all know that
open kettle canning requires less
time than cold pack, or hot pack

tables, such as beans and corn,
cannot be canned alone by the
open kettle method But if either
beans or corn are combined with
an equal amount of ripe tema-

canned without processing When

Unusual Tricks for Victory canners

- HIS year, fulfilling their part

campai ign, thousands of
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-11-22
Make Religious Freedom Real

One of the strongest national cam
paignS to support religious freedom
began yesterday and will continue until
December IL. It is the United Church
Canvass. Endorsed by President Roose-
welt and sponsored by list of prominent
citizens it reaches into thousands of local
communities to present the wartime
services of the Christian Church.
Although local churches will hold
simultaneous financial drives during this
period, United Church Canvass is much
more than financial campaign. Through
press and radio it will ask for the support
of its total religious ministry, and this
includes Roman Catholic, Protestant and
Jewish. The public will be reminded of
its ministry to service men and women,
the supply of chaplains which it has
furnished the Army and Navy, and its
vast world relief work which, it should
be noted, was not included in the National
War Fund.
It will also remind us that worship,
the weekly services of churches and syn
agogues, is playing great role in the
building of morale both at home and on
the fighting fronts Millions of people
are finding comfort in prayer The Bible
has become a source of strength to those
who have special burdens. preaching OF
the eternal nature of spiritual values give
us hope as we look toward the postwar
world. The truth of religion creates men
who are free.
Religious freedom is part of our ma
tional heritage. 1t is worth fighting for.
1t is also worth supporting financially,
and by attendance at the church of our
choice. Let us do more than believe in
religious freedom as a great principle;
let us help keep it alive in our own
hearts by standing behind our religious
institutions. Empty churches and cur
tailed budgets have no place IN a COM
munity which claim to honor God.
It is because we believe that freedom
of press, freedom of speech, freedom OF
assembly and freedom of religion all de-
pend upon the moral and spiritual
strength of a people, that we are glad
to support the detectives found in the
United Church Canvass. We unite, there
fore, with President Roosevelt in saying:
"The constructive value of the United
Church Canvass is readily apparent. An
nual stock taking 20 determine our
church memberships and other spiritual
resources is most essential. What grand
thing if our religious impacts can present
a united front"
