HAND TO HAND

On the Sevastopol front, the IL
Vestia correspondent said that the
fighting, which began three weeks
ago with long-range artillery and
dive bombers, had settled down to
hand-to-hand encounters in which
Russian marines excel.
For almost the first time in the
war, there has been much close
contact with the enemy" the dis
patch said. Trench and dugout
fighting lasts for hours.
"A daring counterattack on the
main northeastern sector thwarted
enemy efforts to deepen a wedge
driven into our front. On the south,
two German divisions failed to break
through and later attempted 20
storm our flanks. The battle is still
raging, with third enemy divisions
brought up. Only small groups of
machinegunners have managed to
penetrate the defenses at some
points"

DELEGATES REPORT REFUSED BY LOCAL
Scovill's Union Disap- pointed Over Failure to
 Oppose Communists

The Scovill Brass Workers union. Local 569, International Union of Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers, yes terday refused to accept report submitted by its three delegates to the international convention at Denver because the delegates had voted to table resolution barring Communists from office in the union. The local had instructed the delegates to vote for the ban.
 ''This means that we are prepared to fight this thing to the bitter end, '' said Secretary-Treasurer Neil Grif- fin. Workers of Waterbury do not want the Communist party to get control of labor units here and we're not going to stand for 1t. We may be accused of not being patriotic, or of being Fascists, but we're going to fight the Communist party as far as possible"
 The convention delegates were Jo- seph Beck. Philip Bertrand and Mrs. Edna Kane. It was claimed that they had voted in violation of the in- structions given them by the mem- bership.
 Dennis McGrath, unit president, presided at the meeting. Another session will be held at 2 p. m. next Sunday.

Social Insecurity
 An Evil--D Dr.. Walker
No Royal Road to Freedom or Liberty Claims Second
 Congregational Pastor in Sermon

Tt seems to me that one of the things our generation must re.earn is the use of the word 'neverthe- less'," said Rev. pr. John c. Walker, Second Congregational church pas- tor, yesterday morning in his ser- mon entitled Nevertheless"
 Dr. Walker said in part:
 T think it is true that too many people, particularly of the younger generation, took 1t for granted that if all the good things of life did not come easy, that they ought to come that way. No sensible person will deny that economic and social in- security are desperate evils and bring countless other evils in their wake and that we cannot do other than labor to abolish all such in- security wherever possible but there are certain perils and insecuritieS that can never be legislated out of existence. For the individual and for the nation there is no royal road to high achievement, to freedom, to liberty. If we will not pay the price of eternal vigilance and statesman like international cooperation we shall have to pay the price in blood.
 'Tae second overtone in that word nevertheless is the note of patience. This is not the weak resignation which is the foil of courage and de- fiance but the patience of the Scrip lures that yields the fruits o1

l26 STARS ON
 SERVICE FLAG
Impressive Services Held at Dedication in St.
 StanisIaus Church

The St. Stanislaus Kostka parish dedicated a service flag honoring 126 men from the church who are now in the armed forces of this country. Over 1000 persons attended the impressive ceremony while 300 more stood outside the church.
 In dedicating the. flag, the Rev. John M. Balasa entrusted the men in the service to the Blessed Mother. The flag was then blessed at the sanctuary and was unfurled by the Children of Mary. A soldier, sailor and marine carried it to the choir loft to its permanent place at the rear of the church.
 A name-tag was placed on each star as each of the names of the men in the service was called. The parish honor roll was also blessed at the service.
 At the Statue of the Blessed Mother two votive seven-day lamps were placed. They will be replaced every week for the duration of the war. Plans are being made to erect immortal and bronze tablet in honor of the parish men in service on the church grounds at the end of the war.
 The St. StaniSlauS Fife and Drum corps, two representatives of the Polish Army and a guard of honor of eight servicemen on furlough also took part in the ceremony.

Checking Landlords
 On Tenants Copy
Latter Requested By OPA to Notify Local Director as
 to Complete Observance of Law

ists the definite possibility that their landlord did not register with the Area Rent Ofice," Bowles sad.
 we are, therefore, starting a campaign today in which tenants of. houses, apartments, tenements and similar dwelling units will play a major role. This is the first step to be taken by ,the Ofice of Price Administration to determine the ex- tent of compliance or non-compli- ance in the state," Bowles asserted, "and we are depending on the CO., operation of tenants as well as land- lords" f
 The registration statement which the tenant Is supposed to receive is printed form marked TENANTS COPY, with the letters DD-1B or DD-2B in the upper right-hand cor- ner. Among other things, it shows the maximum legal rent for the dwelling unit. In most cases, this is the rent charged, for the same dwelling on April 1, 194l. The ten- ant is supposed to keep his copy unless he disagrees with any of the statements, in which case he is to list his objections on the reverse side of the form, and return it to the Area Rent once within fifteen days.
 Although tenants are asked to re- port to the Area Rent director in the event that they have not re- ceived their copy of the registration form, they are cautioned not tc jump to any conclusions concerning their landlords.
 Fairness To All
 "It is possible that landlord may have registered in accordance with the law, but for some reason tht tenants copy of the form has moi yet gone through the regular chan nels," stated Bowles. Tn fairness tC all concerned, therefore, we are ask ing tenants simply to report to tht Area Rent Ohice, if they have no received their copy, but to refrain from further action or expression of opinion until the matter is in vestigated by the once of Price Ad- ministration."

righteousness, joy, peace, victory, ensuring the triumphant faith Turning now to the New Testament and to the Epistle to the Hebrews, we find the writer pleading for con- stant faith, for patience, for godli- ness. Some of the people to whom he was writing had been complain ing of their misfortlineS and difi- culties. He reminded them that they had not yet resisted evil unto blood, that they had endured nothing comparable to the trials and suffer ing of their, Master. Then the un- known writer appeals to their com- mon experience. Now no christening for the present seemeth to be grevious: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby
 ''The third overtone in Scriptural usage of this word nevertheless is sacrifice. There comes time in life when nothing else will serve the purpose. There comes a time when man must acknowledge that sac- rifice and sacrifice only will answer the need of the day and the hour. If we turn back again to the life of David, the shepherd king of Israel, we have the story which comes much earlier than the successful siege of Jerusalem. It is a tale which helps us to understand how David endeared himself to his men and won their literally undying loy- alty. In one of his campaigns things had not gone well with Dvaid and his men. The Philistines were in possession of the cities of the land, among them Bethlehem, the town where David was born. One day David in a tit of homesickness, said, oh that one would give me to drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem which is by the gate And three of his warriors overheard that wistful word and broke through the line of the enemy. presumably at night, and brought back water from that seifsame well.''
