ARGUMENTS FILED
 ON COMPENSATION
Appeal Heard on Award Granted for Amputation
 of Finger

Judge Frank P. McEvoy reserved decision today in superior court af- ter hearing more testimony and ar- guments by counsel in the long wrangled appeal of William D Munson from a finding of Compen- sation Commissioner James M Lynch, who awarded compensation to George D. France. Both sides appeared today seeking Judgments
 The litigation arises from an in- jury received by George D. France, who was employed as hand man for William D. Munson, at several Quassapaug cottages. The injury resulted in the loss of finger, and a long period of disqualification due to infection. The defense claims the compensation award is illegal because Munson did not come under the terms of the compensation statutes, which require that man must hire five men to be 8 regu- lar employer. Commissioner Lynch in his finding stated that Munson did hire five men, and the defense is seeking the courts permission to demand a specific statement of Commissioner Lynhc as to who the five men were and in what ca pacity they were hired.
 Attorney John H. Cassidy repre- sents the Munson side of the case, while Attorney Michael V. Blans- field is counsel for France.

CHINESE Y. M. C. A. SECRETARIES
Secretary Purinton Relays Address of International
 Secretary Barnett

~250 Chinese ex-Y. N. O. A. sec- re...ries are holding important p0- sitions in the ranks of the new re- glme in China" according to Eu- gene E. Barnett formerly head of the "" work in China and now secretary of the World Service pro- gram of the Y. M. o. A., whose re- cent talk in Bridgeport was review cd by Secretary Arthur L. Purinton at the regular weekly meeting of the CwoanS Club at the Central Y. M. o. A. last night. For many years according to Mir. Barnett, the Y. M. c. A. has been helping Chinese people to overcome the i'll effects of the lack of education and other ele- ments that have made for rapid progress in the western world. The genius of the Y. M. c. A. program in China and in other parts of the world is that American secretaries are sent in to stay only until they can train native secretaries. An in- teresting example of the "" influ- ence in China is the fact that when Sun Yat Sen, founder of the Chin csc Republic, was preparing his book on international Co-opera- ton in the ReconstructinR of China, three Y. M. c. A. gecretar- ies met weekly with him to discuss the material to go into the book. Program Committee
 The program committee of the Cwoans Club is planning to bring before each meeting of the club from now on some item of current interest for discussion. The Social committee of the club has planned a visitation to Worden's Dairy next Friday evening. About twenty cou- ples plan to attend. President An- gelo Mancuso presided at last nights meeting of the club. Re- treatments were served by 8 com. mittee composed of Harvey Lemieux and Frank Ranando.
 | New Course
 A new course in Federal Tax Law" will open at the Central Y. M. c. A. Tuesday, February 2, ac- cording to an announcement this morning by Chairman Robert E. Platt of the educational and indus- trial committee of the Waterbury Y. M. c. A. The instructor will be AL fred F. Meyerhans, local public &C., countant. who is also the auditor of the Waterbury Y.

SNOW OR SHEET
 HERE PROMISED
Weatherman Predic ts Freezing Temperatures
 Early Tomorrow

Steady rainfall through the night and continued mild temperatures washed away most of the remnants of Wednesdays heavy snowstorm. Automobile travel was easy in al- most all sections of the city, with only few outlying streets reported in hazardous condition.
 Though winter sports addicts were glum as they saw the snow melt away, the weatherman indicated to- day that they may yet have skiing and tobogganing for the weekend T. e weather prediction is rain this afternoon, probably changing to snow or Sleet tonight, accompanied by colder weather. Sleet or snow with freezing temperatures is the prediction for Saturday.
 The mercury stayed up close to the 50 mark all through the night and morning and was bit over 50 at noon today. A dense fog blanket ed the city late last night and early this morning, interfering with auto travel. Police reported no serious &C., 1 cidents.
 If the weatherman's prediction Of probable snow tonight or tomorrow meterializes, there may be weekend skiing both about the city and at the resorts in the Litchfleld and Berkshire hills. Resorts all over New England today reported no skiing possible, with the exception of La- conia, N. H., where hope was held out that skiing might be possible for Saturday and Sunday. Most week. end ski trains in the east have been cancelled.
