a winning team, and possibly quail
ity one or two men for the state

OF May.

 League Admits Failure
 Geneva, April Ie.-(UP).-League leaders assem sled today to confess their failure to stop the Italian war on Ethiopia, their impotence to en- force new penalties against Italy and their inability to make good tehir pledges under the league covenant to protect each other from attack.
 A meeting of the committee of 13 the council without 1taly-was called for this afternoon. Its chief business was to adopt formally a report by Salvador De Madariaga of Spain, its chairman, admitting the fact that peace efforts had fail- ed.
 The meeting was postponed for an hour to give Madariaga additional time to draft his report.
 MussOlinl Triumphant
 On the surface Premier Benito MusSolini of Italy was triumphant in his defiance of the league and particularly of Great Britain, lead- CT in the demand that Italy be punished.
 But Anthony Eden of Great Brit ain continued his fight. He obtained agreement that 8 committee of ex- perts should meet Monday to ex- anime the application of penalties now in effect, with a view to mak- ing them more effective.
 This indicated that Britain, as 1t has said 1t would, intended to con- tinue its opposition by all legal means of even tact recognition by the league that Mussolini has won.

The men that both policemen wished to question, and if possible bring to America, were Jacob Schwarz, Q Czechoslovakian, and Bernard Klein, Hungarian. It was Klein who had $400, ,000 worth of the Bank of Manhattan com- panys bonds when arrested in Monte Carlo several days ago.
 Marchioness Queried
 Assistant District Attorney O. M. F'rankel of New York county ques- tioned the Marchioness Davico yes- terday. The Marchioness, who is es- tranged from her husband, said she established contact with some of the suspected men on Q trip to Europe last year and another this year. She said she heard of David Frank, one of the men arrested here, several months ago through Anthony De Pasquale, e since slain former res- taurant owner. Later, she said, she met Frank at the bar of 0 Park ave- nue hotel. and he gave her a list of serial numbers of some securities he wished to sell. She sent the list to an investment broker, who discov- cred that the securities had been stoeln. He notified the district ate torney ard the justice department. Authorities believe that De Pas- quaie. whose staying by gunmen had been . puzzle to police for . year, was the messenger who struggled stolen bonds and motes out of the United States Co salesmen in Eu- rope.

 Memorandum in Case
 Commissioner Lynch appended the following memorandum to his decision:
 The present claimant was within that class which gave him the bene- it of a conclusive presumption as to dependency at the time of his fathers death, were there no sur- viving dependent parent. The fact that the widow survived suspended the benefits of the act, so far as the claimant was concerned, until the time of his mother death. He was then over eighteen years of age and lost the benefit of the con- elusive presumption provided in section 5235 of the General Statutes. Nevertheless he was entitled to com- pensation as @ dependent, if in fact he was such a dependent.
 The claimant is pursuing a nor- nal course for his education end had relied upon his parents, his mother and father, for such educa- ton. The fact that he works, when ever he can possibly find 1t, in or- der to assist him going through cole lege, indicates hS ambition but does not make him less dependent in Q partial sense if the fact war rant such conclusion.
 Precise Point
 The precise point in this claim, so fas as I am aware, has not been passed upon by the supreme court of errors. A somewhat similar claim came before the commissioner for the first district, and is entitled Alfred Uric Rivard, son of Mrs. Adeline Rivard, vs. City of Hart ford, and is reported in volume 3 of the Connecticut Workmen'S Com pensation Commission digest, part l, 167. It is true that in the case the claimant was a minor at the time the claim was made, but the prin- ciples of law involved are set forth at some length in 8 memorandum of decision by the commissioner and also in a memorandum of the su- perior court of appeal. Compensa- ton was allowed and am constrained to follow that case as a precedent. Of course, the position of de- pendency may change before the SIX year period has fully elapsed and 1t will be proper for the respon- dents to seek modification of the award, should the conditions change in their favor.

 Commissioner.

against the state WPA, IVA and the internal revenue department of Connecticut. Assisted by State WPA Administrator Matthew A. Daly of New Haven, State IVA Director Thomas J. Dodd of New Haven and Internal Revenue Collector Thomas Smith and some of his deputies, the Robinson forces have used pres- sure on delegates, 1t is being openly charged. Another who has grieved the Robinson faction is Dr. E. G. Dolan of Manchester.
 Waterbury is one of seven cities that will have two delegations on hand. The fight over the seating of the delegates from this and the other cities is expected to be a bitter one. In every instance the Robinson group, which controls the executive committee, has voted to disqualify delegations from clubs that are anti Robinson and has voted to recognize the delegates from pro- Robinson clubs.
 Two Clubs Here
 In Waterbury there are two clubs. One is the original Young Democratic club of Waterbury. It is opposed to Robinson for reelection. The other is a trump" club made up of pro-Robinson supporters. The trump" club membership comprises many who bolted the regular demo- cratic organization here last fall to support the independent demo- cratic ticket, nearly bringing about . republican victory in Waterbury.
 James Madigan of Hamden heads the credentials committee which will recommend to the convention which of the two local delegations Is to be seated. Attorney Cullinan of Bridgeport heads the rules committee. The resolutions commit tee is likely to be the center of bitter attack this afternoon, also. It is made up of IVA Director Dodd, Attorney Bowling of Meriden and Miss Edna Purtell of Hartford. Op- position is likely to arise to a plank in the platform calling for an amendment to the state constitution so as to have the governor directly name minor court judges and to prevent members of the general assembly from holding judicial posts. Another controversial plank will be one calling for ratification of the child labor amendment to the federal constitution.
 Platform PlankS
 The platform to be acted upon this afternoon will also call for the erection of new institution for the feeble-ninded, the setting up of a state jail farm, the balancing of state receipts and expenditures, the qualification of the state labor laws, the strengthening of the workmen's compensation act, establishment of an eight-hour day and 40-hour week for both sexes, state unemployment insurance and jury service for wo- men.
