 Attorney Wynne, secretary to Governor Cross recalled the days he spent Tn the Legislature with Judge
 McDonough and Commissioner Lynch. He mentioned that the Compensation Act was signed by Governor Baldwin in 1913, who, a believer in bipartisan representa-. ton in administrative bodies, named two republicans out of the five commissioners appointed in the
 state. over considerable objection by democratic leaders. The late Commissioner Frederic M. Will
 jams was one of the appointees,
 MT. Wynne pointed out. Another one of the appointees was Dr. Don- ahue, who was present at the speakers table, MT. Wynne re- called. MT. Wynne paid nice trib- ute to the late Commissioners Will
 Hams, stating he was q man be- loved by all with whom he came in contact. He said 1t was pleas ure for Governor Cross to recog- nize an outstanding member of the law profession, in the appointment of Attorney Lynch. He said there was a very great bond of sympa- thy between him and Attorney Lynch whom he had seen develop as a lawyer. Tt gives me very great pleasure to be here, Jim; wish you long life, prosperity aud a good measure of success in the life to which you have been called," said Mir. Wynne.
 In closing, MT. Wynne facetiousiy mentioned that if Governor Cross is only kept in office long enough, there will be jobs for every mem- Der of the Waterbury Bar.
 Judge McEvoy. the next speaker. stated that compensation com- missioner is placed in a difficult position. "What can be harder" he said. "than for a commissioner to deny relief to claimant, when the COIlIHlSSlOHeT IS pTcVeHlco from doing so by the law" Judge McEvoy said 1t is essential that the claimant be assisted and not placed at disadvantage. The speaker said the late Commissioner Williams has set most estimable standard and had considerable to do with placing the act upon high scale. Judge McEvoy said the highest wish he could offer to Con- missioner Lynch that he follow the path so ably set before him by Com- missioner Williams. He said not only this district, but the whole state should be congratulated upon the appointment of MT. Lynch. His record shows he has the grasp and that he Is now in position to exer- else the we'll grounded knowledge be has attained. He suggested that MT. Lynch apply the law, not strictly according to the letter. but with a good measure of common sense.

The injured were returned here this morning by the destroyer U. S. s. Barry which answered a radio call for help from the Nauti- Jus.
 Those most seriously hurt were: R. W. Bradsaw, seaman, first class. M. A. Bowman, chief radio man. H. S. Young machinist's mate. H. M. Springton, fireman, first class. All were expected to recover. The three other men were said to have sustained burns.
 The injuries resulted, it was un- derstood, when a crankcase on 0ne of the engines exploded. The first mishap was followed a second later by similar explosion on another engine. It was believed that gas pressure caused the explosions. Bowman, although cut severely a. bout the head and suffering from a chest injury, sent the wireless message thatFbrought the Barry to the submarines aid. The Nautilus, one of the largest and finest of he navy's submarines, proceeded to port under her own power.

it's contract with Sears. Roebuck &,
Co." were described at a Federal
Trade Commission hearing yesterday

for alleged violation of the Clayton
antitrust act, said he met Litchfleld
at New York in January, 1882, and
again in January, 1888.
At the first meeting, Martin said,
Litchfleld was "evasive and made no
direct reply" At the second, Martin
testified he would call Litchfield' 5
reply "fllppant because he referred TO
some hobby of his"
Goodyear is charged by the COM
mission with price discrimination in
favor Of Sears. Roebuck. Martin said
Sears was able to undersen inde-
pendent dealers on tires ofScompara-
BILE quality.
Martin testified the Goodyear-
Sears contract was "the most devaS.
tating and ruinous to a great number
OF independent dealers"
He said one of the most vicious
price wars that ever existed in the
industry" in the last 80 days started
in the naaii-order field. A truce, he
said, was arranged, but was not being
kept at all markets..
