New Britain evening | 1098-5 ASKINQURY ABOLT BELLEAU WOOD PLOT | |Clim 15 Made That Graves Are| | New York, Oct. §.-—~Rebert L, Ba. {con, former service man and now | | representative In congress from the | Wirst New York district, sald that, unless there 1s & good explanation for the condition of the American mill- | tary cemetery at Pelleay Wood, | France, the subjeet should be taken | {up promptly with the secretary of war for action, Mr, Bacon, who visited the ceme- tery last February, expressed great surprise that improvements had not | been made during the summer, He sald he was told by those in charge | of the Belleau cemetery that plans had been drawn, money appropriated for the work and that the condition- | ing would be started last spring. | The description of the cemetery | contained in the artigle in The Sun and The Globe is exactly as I saw It in Vebruary,” sald Mr, Bacon today. “I don't think the ‘poor box' was there then; at least I don't remember it. 1 cannot understand why the plans for Iimproving the Belleau cemetery were not undertaken this | summer. They showed me sketches | of the landscaping schemeo, ineluding | gravel walks, grass and flowers, and | sald everythl: was ready to begin | work as soon as spring weather per- mitted. Hero it is October and noth- ing done.” Conditions in Belleau Wood this summer brought about indignant pro- tests by homecoming Americ The absence of any plan of beautifica- tion and the general barren expanse of rows of white crosses proved & shock to visitors. They could not understand why' the work had been delayed, and the result was strong protests to the authorities at Wash- ington. More Money Is Needed Mr. Bacon said that if by chance insufficient appropriations have been provided, this should be rectified as soon as possible. “If, however, appropriations have been voted and the work left undone, an explanation from those responsi- ble is due,” continued the congress- man. “Unless there is some good ex- |plunnthn I believe the case should be laid before the war department. If the Graves Registration Service has been negligent, the matter cer- tainly should be taken up with the secretary of war.' necessary to put those graves in proper shape for all time should be provided promptly by the government,” said Mr. Bacon. He told of visiting other American mill- tary burial grounds in France. That near Paris and the one in the Ar- gonne, he added, were in splendid condition, with grass, walks and shrubs appropriately arranged. Mr. Bacon pointed out that with- out a beautiful landscaping scheme the scene at Belleat Wood cemetery is particularly harsh because of the war devastation in the background. “What is left to the woods where so.many Americans gave their lives forms the background for the ceme- tery,” explained Mr. Bacon. “This makes the need of grass and shrub- bery in the cemetery proper all the more marked. The remnant of the forest is a fitting background, but it should contrast With the landscaping in the cemetery itself.” FASCISTI ARE LOYAL Big Mass Meeting in Naples Votes Pledge of Loyalty to ‘Premier Mussolini Naples, Oct. 8.—At a great meeting qf afscisti held here last evening, it was unanimously voted that an ad- dress of loyalty and esteem be sent to Premier Mussolini, = expressing the wish that on the coming occasion of the anniversary of the fascisti march on Rome, Captain Padovani be rein- stated as commander of the Naples fascista zone. It was pointed out that as the commanders of the fascista militia were not permitted now to take part in politics it would be im- possible for such an incident as that which caused Captain Padovani's resignation to oceur. Captain Padovani and his adherents comprising a large section of the party in Naples, tendered their resignation iast May because they considered the decision of the fascisti to admit the nationalist deputy Rocco to member- ship meant the introduction of révo- lutionary elements in fascism. In re- taliation Premier Mussolini decreed tire expulsion from the fascisti of Cap- tain Padovani and his followers mak- ing an_example of a man who had been one of his close friends in order to maintain discipline in the fascismo ranks, THIRD BAD VIRE.

It has been the custom of the company to give a sheep roast dinner each fall to the members of the Corbin Foremen's club, but this year the office force was included, together with the hus- bands and wives of members of the Corbin organization. Transportation was by automobile. The picnickers assembled at 1 o'clock to partake of a light lunch. Follow- ing a group photograph, there was a baseball game—factory V5. office— and a number of field events, which cccupled the time to 5 o'clock, when one of Pierce & Norton's noted bar- becue dinners was served.

THE NEW MINISTER ALSO TAKES CHANCE — o Dr, Hill Gives Otber Side of the - Story Ater 10 Years Not only does the official board of a churchfind it nccessary to look over a new minister before engaging him, but it often is nccessary for the new minister to look over his prospective congregation and the community be- fore he moves into it,according to Rev. Dr, George W. C. Hill in his sermon yesterday forenoon, eptitled “A Dec- ade in the South Church.” He said: “Very frequestly, when a church pastorate is vacant, and committees are wondering who will be best fitted for the place, they act and speak as thought the church is risking some- thing in the selection of a pastor, when, as a matter of fact, there is another side to be considered, and that has to do with the feeling of the prospective pastor when he is con- sldering the call to the vacant place. He, too, is taking a chance, because he does not know that he will We in congenial surroundings if he makes a change, and nobody can guarantee that he will have reason to be hap- py after making the change as he is in his other location. While church committees are looking up the past record of the prospective, pastor, and worrying that their choice may not be a wise one, the man with whom they are negotiating must also do some thinking, and there are as many things for him to consider as there are for the committee and the peo- ple of his future charge to bear in mind.” Dr. Hill said he feels, after ten years in the South church pastorate, that there is every reason for him to be thankful of the change that brought him there, He has been given freedom and independence in the pul- pit. Often one hears on the street that pastors are merely mouthpleces, that they dare not speak their mind, and, their utterances are framed for them by an individual or a group having control of the church. This condition does not exist in the South church, Dr. Hill said, for in his ten years' pastorate, there has never been an attempt made to dictate to| him, and he has spoken from the pul- pit exactly as he felt, and there has not been a single occasion on which he sald one thing and thought an- other. In fact, he said, while there are “rubber stamps” in the pulpit, it is by means the rule that preach- ers al merely tools for influential groups or individuals. Very often, it develops that those who complain of being restricted in their utterances are those who mistake impertinence and brutality of speech for frankness. It is very possible, he said, to bhe independent and enjoy freedom, and at the same time receive and accept wige counsel. 10 WEw—qME PASTOR HOME Members of St. Peter's Parish Plan Reception to Rev, Charles Coppens Next Week, Members of St. Peter's parish of which Rev.
