How best to utilize the services of the disabled worker in the prepared ness program will be among the many subjects considered at the Clinical Congress of The Connecti- cut State Medical Society which opened yesterday in New Haven. Edward P. Chester, the State Su- pervisor of Vocational Rehabilita- tion, will speak before the Congress at 8:15 this evening in the Surgical Amphitheater at the New Haven Hospital. MT. Chester's Subject is, "The Vocational Rehabilitation of the Disabled Connecticut Worker" l" The public is invited to attend.
 Great Significance.
 In commenting on the occasion, Dr. Clifford Kuh of New Haven, chairman of the Medical Society's Committee on Industrial Health said: There are two reasons why the matter of vocational rehabilita- ton is of great significance now. One is national defense. We need to find place in industry for all individuals who are capable of do- ing any work whatsoever. If. thruogh injury or disease, e man cannot do the job to which he has heretofore been accustomed, he should be retrained to carry on within his physical capacity. This will increase industry's productive ness as well as provide self-support for the Individual.

In speaking of "the kingdom of

pray, he said "this kingdom of
peace between peoples and
nations of the world is based on an
equitable adjustment Of differences
and or that union that comes with
right and order"
"At the present hour men are
far removed from this peace" the
pope continued. "The intimate
sense of common values, both in
the natural and supernatural order,
threatens to abdicate from many
hearts to opposing principles.

It is already evident, with the IN

the new order in Europe will be

Then he warned:
"But nobody who remains aloot
from throwing in his cause with
the Axis need be surprised if he
finds, afterwards, that he has mis-

The commentator expressed be-

BY CHARLES S. FOLTZ, JR.

GENEVA, Switzerland, Oct. 10
CB-Thirty belligerent butchers in
the little French mountain town OF
Belley, went to Jail today, giving
the first definite hint of a civil dis
obedience campaign which for some
time has been reported spreading
through France.
Publication of the official version
of the Belley battle in censored
newspapers throughout Southwest
ern France showed that authorizes
were acutely conscious Of the I'M
plications. Belley is in ~unoccupleo
France near the Swiss border.
The butchers, it was reported, met
Thursday night and decided the
vichy governments new meat tax
was the last straw. The next day
. every butcher shop in Belley was
closed.
When police ordered them to re-
open, they refused. This morning
they all went to jail.
'"This is only the beginning" they
announced from their cells.
Signs are still posted on their
butcher shop windows, mo o
meat"
Citizens, already disgruntled at
shortages of sugar, cheese. choco-
late, eggs and milk, appealed to the
authorities, who said army butchers
would take care Of the trade twice
a week. They said the butchers had
meat on hand, but rebelled because
they saw their profits vanishing In
the new taxes.
Friends Of the butchers, however,
were reported beginning a boycott
of the army butchers.
