at the Third Internationale con-
gress today for recent activity in
bourgeois. religious, sports and
other organizations, calculated to
tend toward united front"

Gil Greene, delegate of the United
States to the Communist Youth In
ternationale, said American Com
munist youths were following the
true American revolutionary ira
dition of endeavoring to tear the
wealth of the country from pluto
Gratis. He emphasized the impor-
tance of real proletarian youth
Communists-whom he called the
backbone of the united front Sc
curing control of the anti-Fascist
fight.
Once, he said. religious youth
groups in the United States were
afraid of cooperation with young
Communists because of their athe-
ism. But this was ended, he said,
by recent joint conferences at
which the Communists, Without
sacrificing their principles, made
no objection TO religiously-inclined
youths attending religious services.
VASTLY Chemodanov, of the exc
cutive party of the Youth Inter
natonale, complimented the Ameri-
can youth for what he called their
proper approach to the united
front" problem. He urged the ne
cessity of a similar policy through

BANK TO ANSWER
 IN MELLON CASE

Pittsburgh, June ?7-(UP)-The Union Trust company of Pittsburgh today was given until July to an- swer federal demands for records which Washington considers im- portant to the Andrew w. Mellon $3,000,000 income tax case. The hearing, by which the government seeks to collect more than $3,000.- 900 additional taxes on Mellon'S 1881 income, was halted in Wash ington recently because the Union Trust fiatly refused to submit the records. Robert II. Jackson. chief government counsel, went into fed- eral court here today to ask an or. der compelling the bank to submit tho records. He appeared before Judge Nelson McVicar, who said tho bank must answer Jackson's petition by July 9, when Q date for . hearing would be set.
 Tho court order, if granted, will support a subpoena issued by Ern- est Fl. Van Fossan. of the federal board of tax appeals. The bank contended the subpoena had no ef- feet and that it's records were not pertinent to the eMllon income tax case. The hearing is in recess pending result of Jackson's action.

RAW MILK FEVER
 GAINING IN STATE
Health Officials Explain Cause of Brucell0sis,
 How Contracted

Brucellosis Is on the increase In Connecticut, according to D. Mil- lard Knowiton. director of the Bu- reau of Preventable Diseases of the State Department of Health, who in the departments weekly broadcast today explained that while the name of the disease may not be familiar 1t is nevertheless a new health problem which can on- ly bo solved by using milk which has been pasteurized or which comes from a herd that has been tested and free from Bangs obor- ton disease.
 Dr. Knowlton said that "raw milk fever" might be q better name for this disease, of which 55 cases were reported in Connecticut last year as against SC the year before. It is often known as undulant fe- yer, since ono symptom is . fever that comes and goes in waves, that is, the graph on the temperature chart looks like series of waves. Malta fever, Mediterranean fever and ''goat" fever are still other names for tho same ailment when caused by the goat type of germs. No matter what the name may be, Connecticut now has more cases of 1t than 1t has of typhoid fever.
 Man contracts the disease by as- soeiating with animals or by hand ling or using animal products us food, pr. Knowlton said. The an- inials become infected with the abortion disease and pass 1t on to man, whose reactions to the In. foetlon ure so different from those of the animals that 1t was many years before science connected the two.
 In Connecticut most people con. tract Bruccllosis by drinkink raw milk from infected cows. Pastuer- ization kills tho germ which caus- es 1t. and, therefore, to be safe t is best to drink only pasteurized milk. Persons who handle meat occasionally become infected. Vet. orinarians who handle diseased an. imals, or workers in slaughter houses arc liable to have the dis- ease.
 Brucellosis among dairy cattle constitutes an exceedingly impor. tant problem> for tho dairy farmer. It is possible by blood test to pick out the cows that arc infected and should be removed from the herd. The federal government has made funds available to reimburse owners of cows that are removed because of infection, the funds be- Ing administered in Connecticut by the Commissioner on Domestic An- imals. When the State Department of Health in Investigating a case of undulant fever finds no source of infection except raw milk, the matter Is brought to the attention of the Dairy and Food Commission. CT, and he in turn takes the mat ter up with the dairymen. As a re. suit of this activity anumber of dairymen have removed infected cows from their herds or have ar- ranged for pasteurisation of tho milk.

AUSTRIA WILL
 MERGE MILITARY

Vienna, June 27-(UP)-Merger of picked men of all semi-military organizations into a unified defense corps, armed, uniformed and form ed on military lines, was decreed by the government today. DissoIu- ton of the organizations must be- gin July and be completed by Oct. 1. Members are to apply in- dividually for membership in the defense corps. The decree was re- garded as another victory for Prince Ernst Rudiger von Starhem- berg, vice chancellor and organizer of the Fascist Heimwehr.
 It was said authoritatively that Starhemberg contemplated forma- ton, with the defense corps men, of n national militia which his Heimwehr will dominate. Starhem- berg, only SC, head of one of Eur. .ope's most iliustrious families, is practically Q dictator. Indications were that in necessitatihg indivi- dual applications for membership In the defense corps, he would seek to weed out all men who showed Nazi Jennings or are not, in fact. loyal to him and his ideals.

Faced with the almost inpossl- ble task of obtaining employment during the past four or five years, thousands of unemployed Water bnrians In the 1925 years of age classification will bo benefitted by the new $50, O,OO0.0 relief program it was estimated today.
 Pending the completion of the survey recently conducted~here as an EZRA project, which will be of considerable aid to relief author itlcs in the institution of the local program 1t is impossible to obtain authentic statistics, but the number ot unemployed In Che younger age group Is believed to be consider ably higher here than in many communities because of the failure of local factories to assimiiate the usual proportion of young men during the depression years. Survey Unfinished
 According to Dr. Thomas J. Con- don. superintendent of schools, work on the survey is still in pro. gress ae Hartford under the super vision of Paul D. Collier of the state department of education.
 Dr. Condon said he understood that several of the clerks employ ed here on the project had been transferred directly to Hartford. 1io said he was In no way con- nected with the work here, al- though he had been promised q copy of the survey on It's comple- ton. He has been given some in- formation on the survey among graduates of several local schools for use at the recent convention of school superintendents in New Britain, but points out that the issuance of statistics of a partial nature would be premature and probably misleading.
 Enthusiasm Reigns
 Dr. Condon is particularly en- thusiastlc about the new program as t concerns the training of youth for employment in the local fac- tories. This development in ,an industrial city. like Waterbury he believes will prove of inestimable benefit not only 10 the boys re. ceiving the training but to indus- try as well.
 Local manufacturers. due to rec auctions in apprentice schools as Q retrenchment measure during the past few years, will be confronted with . serious shortage of skilled labor in the event of m upturn in business.
