Everyone agrees that we live in times of transition and peril and that the established order of things fin this modern world is shaken to its foundations" stated Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, Second Congrega- tional Church pastor yesterday morning in his sermon entitled, But We See Jesus.

 Dr. Walker said in part:
 I want to point out to you in the Epistle to the Hebrews few short words which sum up well as anything could the import of the book as a whole and because the book is a reasoned and convincing philosophy of Christian faith, much of the Christian philosophy of life. can give you this morning, on the authority of this namelesS saint, a watchword for your living, magic key to unlock the door to the larger life. If you will take these words with you as you go out from this service this morning and carry them with you down the days of the fu- ture, life itself will take on richer meaning and fairer promise. The words are these, "Bue We See Jesus. These words are very touchstone to life, abiding, victor ious, eternal.

BATTLE
 SMOKEY BLAZE
Seven Companies Called to East Main Street Build=
 ing; Traffic Tied=Up

Fire, caused, so it is presumed, by an employe discarding a lighted match or cigaret, was extinguished by seven companies of firemen Sat- urday morning in fire in the base ment of the Schneider's bakery, 85 East Main street.
 Occupants of seven apartments were forced to make hurried exit as smoke poured throughout the four-story brick building shortly after 10 o'clock in the morning. The first floor is occupied by a business establishment, with the Anchor grill, Paris Luncheonette adjoining the bakery, the upper three apart ment houses offices and apartments.
 The fire started in the south corner of the east section of the building and spread between a double floor to the easterly side of the store. Bremen had difficulty in reaching the blaze, and hoes were chopped in the flooring of the bakery to enable them to get at the source of the blaze.
 Fire Marshal Den J. Lahey said that the fire was one of the "smokiest" in many years the fire men had to battle.
 The street was filtered with empty carton boxes used by the store for foodstuffs. Fire autos blocked traffic.
 Miss Vivian Mole, an employe of the bakery, saw smoke drifting from the floor and notified Gusto- vac Schneider, who summoned the fire apparatus.

 A. F. of L. Wins
 Washington, Feb. 3.-UP)-The supreme court today held that fed eral antitrust laws do not apply to restraints of commerce caused by inter-union jurisdictional disputes.
 The court set forth this ruling in sustaining the dismissal of indict- ments against four officers of the American Federation of Labor Car penters' Union who had been charged with Sherman act violations.
 The decision was setback to the campaign of Assistant Attorney General Thurman Arnold to bring unions within the scope of anti monopoly laws when their activities in pursuance of "unjustified' ob- jectives interfere substantially with interstate trade.
 Men Indicted
 The indictments had been re- turned against William L. Hutche- son, president of the United Broth- erhood of Carpenters and joiners, and St. Louis officials of the union, in connection with their alleged na- tionwide efforts to restrain the trade of Anheuser-Busch, Inc, St Louis brewers and thre e concerns engaged in expanding the brew cry plant. The district court quashed the indictments on the ground the acts alleged did not vio- late antitrust laws.
 The government charged that the union sought by strikes. picketing, and boycotts, to force the company to have millright members of the carpenters union install machinery in the new plant. The company had a contract with the International Association of Machinists, also an AFL union, to do that work. The government asserted that the unions activity was not to advance legiti- mate labor aims but to deprive members of another union of work"
 The 6 to 2 decision was written by Justice Felix Frankfurter. Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes and Justice owen J. Roberts dissented. Five other justices joined in the majority opinion. Frankfurter said that the unions activities were within the free scope accorded to workers" by the law.
 Frankfurter implied condemna- ton of some types of jurisdictional disputes, saying that they have been an ohdurate conflict in the evolu- ton Of so-called craft unions and have undoubtedly been one Of the potent forces in the development of industrial unions.
 "These conflicts have intensified industrial tension but there is not the slightest warrant for saying that congress has made section % map. plleabie to trade union conduct re. sulting from them" Frankfurter's opinion said,
 Frankfurter held that the role Of labor under the antl.tflikl laws must be considered in the light Of the sherman act, the clayton act and the Norfik.Lanuafdia act restricting the Use Of InJuncslons in labor dIss " = sss~As AA Ahu.ssbA.as kaaasaaS

FOUR SIGN UP
 FOR U. s. ARMY
Reserve Officers Arouse Interest in Local Youths;
 Radio Program

Four men joined the U. s. army here last week through the efforts of the recruiting campaign spon- sored by the Waterbury chapter, Reserve Of1cers' association, Capt. Walter J. Lynch, chairman. This week Capt. Lynch hopes to enroll at least eight men, particularly since Sergt. James Deuth, recruiting offi- cer stationed here, will leave the Y. M. c. A. recruiting headquarters in day or two to be gone for the duration of the present and suc- ceeding induction periods.
 The men signed up are Louis Guerrero, 12 Irion street, for the air corps, Savannah, Ga.
 William Joseph Moriarty, 330 East Main street, for infantry in Hawaii
 Frank Anthony Lasalata, 139 Or ange street, for coast artillery, first corps area.
 Joseph Yamin, 98 Sylvan avenue, for air corps, Maxwell field, Ala.
 After the recruiting office closes here applicants may go to 341 State street, New Haven, or to 555 Asy- lum street, Hartford, where they will be given all information, examined and swarm in.
 The army recruiting program to be heard over Station WATR this evening pays tribute to the army test pilot with description of the de- velopment of night flying and early altitude tests.
 Shortly after the World War, Capt. Donald Brenner of the Air Corps made night landing at McCook field without the aid of any ground lights or flares. A light was attached to the plane itself and that light cast team of 100000 candle power. Capt. Brenner succeeded in landing the plane without injury to the plane or himself.
 Another incident described on this program is an altitude flight by Major Schroeder. The plane was flown to a height of 31,0OO feet. At that altitude the oxygen tank re- fused to function and Major Schoe- der became unconscious. The plane dropped five miles in two minutes, coming out of the dive when the pilot regained consciousness at 5000 feet.
 The Army Air Corps has cooper ated with airplane builders and de- signers since 1909 and the courage of the Army test pilot has greatly contributed to the success of com mercial and private aviation as we know it today.

BENEFIT PARTY
 PLANS COMPLETE
Proceeds to Aid War Vic- tins in England, Canada;
 Keen Interest Shown

Citywide interest is being shown as a result of the announcement that the Maple Leaf Fund of Wa terbury will sponsor a card party Wednesday evening in the auditor ium of St. Margaret's school on Willow street. The proceeds of the worthy affair will be used in pro- noting relief among Britain's war sufferers, particularly among the hundreds of evacuated children now residing in Canada. The receipts will make possible the purchase of yarns and other materials for the making of sweaters, socks, mittens and other garments needed by England's thousands of homeless families.
 Attractive table prizes will be awarded to addition to eight special prizes obtained by the committee on arrangements. Incidentally friends of the Maple Leaf Fund which has worked so diligently for relief among the people of Greece as well as Great Britain, are requested to cooperate by bringing their own playing cards to Wednesday nights party. This little act of cooperation will be greatly appreciated.
 Tickets for the affair may be ob- tained by telephoning 4-4940 or 3-2203. From present indications the announcement of the party has struck most responsive chord in the hearts of many Waterburians. They are not only in sympathy with Great Britain's magnificent fight. but are anxious to promote the friendliest of feeling with their neighbors over the border in Can ada.
 A very representative gathering is expected to award the effort of the committee. Clark H. w. Newton is chairmsn of the Maple Leaf Fund which includes in its membership many prominent Waterburians. former residents of Canada.

course many many accidents are
 the results of carelessnesS but even
 in such cases very often 1t is not
 the careless men who causes the
 accident but teh unwilling pasSerby
 who suffers the consequences. Doc-
 tors. nurses, ministers, social work
 CTS see great numbers of people
 every week who, as far as human
 judgment can determine, are suffer-
 ing through no fault of their own. Indeed in many cases they are suf- fering as a direct result of the fault, in some cases the original negli- gence, of others. You can let your self get bitter about all this if you will. This world of ours is shot through with injustices, at least so it seems.
 Again you have to be reasonable about your attitude. We have to remember that if we suffer often times without seeming right or war rant, we also inherit, blessings and favorS and good fortune without right or warrant. If you say you don't deserve your ill fortune, we may ask, what did you do to deserve your fortune? Moreover anyone can see that our world was never in- tended to be paradise for weak lings but a hard and difficult world where men are made perfect through suffering, toll and struggle. Above all else we see that God honored our Master. not by making Him immune to injustice and suffering but by let ting Him bear the heaviest possible burden. If we see suffering, unde- served suffering in this world, we see also Jesus suffering, yea, and con- quering. The final answer to the heard so frequently, what have I done to deserve suffering like this?" is But we see Jesus suering" He suffered and conquered"
