 Arrived Last Night.
 Ribbentrop and Oshima arrived together last night. Hours before they arrived the report had spread that Bulgaria would sign here to- day an agreement making 1t, along with Rumania and Hungary, 0 sub- ordinate member of the Axis, as part of the Nazi "new order in Eu- rope"
 Both here and ct Berlin all in- formation regarding the Bulgarian situation had been refused.
 Spokesmen at Berlin would say only that they knew nothing about the reports that Bulgaria would ad- here to the Axis and that German troops were already marching into the country to occupy 1t as they had occupied. Ruinania.
 ... Ignored Situation.
 A United -Pfesls Berlin dispatch said that the Berlin newspaper. this morning ignored the Bulgarian sit- uation. Instead, they devoted thels' most prominent space to stories of the sixth anniversary yesterday of the new German air force, with pic- lures of cir force leaders and fiiers.
 Well informed Nazis at Berlin had said, however, that they believed the interruption Of telephonic cominuni- cation with Sofia was voluntary on the. part of Bulgarian ofilcials. and was not due to storms or other dis turbances of Q technical nature.

NEW FUND MAY
 NOT BE APPROVED
Judiciary Committee Re. ported Opposed to Blans.
 field Proposal

(By Democrat Legislative ,Reporter)
 State Capitol, Hartford! March An unfavorable report is expected to be submitted by the judiciary committee on Senator Michael v. Blansfield's bill to set up c state workmen's compensation insurance fund. The bill would, in effect, place the state in the compensation in- surance business.
 Senator Blansfield and Attorney Harry Albert of Waterbury spoke in favor of the state. fund plan at a hearing here Wednesday, claiming that It's adoption would react to the benefit of both employer and em- ploye. The plan, which would in- volve contributions by workmen as well as their employers, would pro- vide full pay during disability in- stead of the half-pay now received A new state agency would be set up to administer the fund.
 The Connecticut Federation o, Labor, represented by Secretary John J. Egan, has shown only . lukewarm interest in the Blansfield bill and in similar measures. Senti- ment within the judiciary committed indicates an unfavorable report though the bill, along with other compensation measures, has been referred to Q subcommittee for fur- ther study.
 Two years ego the General As- sembly rejected bill largely similar to that of Senator Blansfleld. That measure also was backed by Attor. ney Albert, as well as by other com. pensation attorneys.
 Senator Blansfield said today thai an unfavorable report on the com. pensation fund bill will have no eff feet on his efforts to secure the pas. sage of another compensation meas. ure-the one establishing the post of compensation commissioner at. large. The extra commissioner would replace any of the regular five com- rlissioners during illness, vacation or in cases of disqualification. He would receive the same salary as the regular commissioners, $6500.
 The extra commissioner would serve as sole adjudicator in cases oi disputes over doctors and hospital fees in compensation cases. Should the new post be created by the legis- lature, Q leading candidate for ap. pointment would be Attorney James M. Lynch, who retired as compen- sation commissioner for the Water. bury district Jan. 1. He is regarded as one of the states leading author. ities on compensation law, and would have considerable Republican as well as Democratic backing fo, the post,

Last summer the Republican al- dermen demanded @ police depart ment probe but were voted down by the Democrats.

The policeman Patrolman Edward Dunn, required medical treatment and all members of his platoon were threatened with loss of privi- leges unles sthe man responsible confessed. No admission of guilt was ever Inade.
 Democratic aldermen may at. tempt to forestall one of the c. O.. P. moves by having Q report on the fire apparatus accident ready for submission Monday. They will probably oppose the proposed po- Ice department probe.

One of the Bulgarians arrested was Peter Radoen, who has been seen frequently in the company of Miss Ann Rendel, daughter of the British minister.
 Reports published abroad of inove- fnent of German troops in Bulgaria apparently originated in the uncon- firmed runor that 17 busses loaded with German soldiers had been seen ct varna, the chief Bulgarian port near the Rrinanian frontier.
 The German legation and Bul- gariail ofiicials denied that any Ger. man troops had entered the cosntry.

There had been signs that the French Indo-C Chinese delegates here were weakning in their stand against the Japanese terms.

 The delegates had sent long telegram to the vichy government yesterday.
 The Japanese had reported that Foreign Minister Matsuoka had de- cided to summon Charles Arsene- Henry, the French ambassador, and charge his government with "insin- cerity."
 According to the newspaper Ashi, Masuoka had intended to demand an immediae favorable reply to the Jauanese terms.

 Saigon, French Indo China, March 1-(UP)- French authorities told American consular officials today that France had rejected the latest demands by Japan for territorial concessions to Thailand.
 The foregoing dispatch did not coincide with previous dispatches from Vichy and Tokyo, which indi- cated that France in e reply to Ja- pan had at least left the way open for further negotiations. It was not improbable, however, on the basis of these dispatches, that France had refused to concede all the demands made by Japan.
