CHURCHILL'ST TALK
 SCORED SAMUEL
Evidence of New PrOpa- ganda Noted By Jewish
 Author, Lecturer

A renewal of isolationist propa- ganda in the United Nations and a strong resurgence of anti-Semitic feeling in this country were scored last night by Maurice Samuel in a talk at a Zionist forum held at Beth-El Synagogue. More than 15O persons heard the noted Jewish author and lecturer.
 As examples of his assertion re- garding isolationist propaganda, MT Samuel cited Winston Churchill's statement that he hadn't become Prime Minister to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire, {" a recent article by Harvard's Pro- lessor Bushnell Hart advocating the annexation of Canada to prevent Russia from doing the same, and the general attitune of the Hearts newspapers.
 Joseph G. Gober, district chair man, was in charge of the meeting, held under the auspices of the Wa terbury Zionist district.

Local Traffic Reported Hard Hit By Visit
No Serious Damage to Util- ities !; Only 20 Telephones
 Out of Commission

Another in the series of fec storms that has plagued Water- bury in its worst winter in recent years today brought dangerously slippery conditions that caused busses to run far behind schedule, made walking hazardous and cut auto traf1c to a minimum. Electric and telephone service in the city has escaped serious interference up to early afternoon but continued freezing in suburban areas brought fears of widespread stoppages. High- ways in nearby New Haven county towns and throughout Litchfield were described as sheets of ice, and the town of Litchfield was one of several in which school sessions were postponed.
 The drizzle of sleet and freezing rain turned to heavy rain in the city proper late this morning, but streets oil the main thoroughfareS were still covered with a glaze of Ice. Last night and this morning gave pedestrians their most hazard 01is period of the winter, with walk Ing almost impossible on many streets.
 Conditions are pretty tough. but were doing all we can," said A. J. Drunrnond, manager of the Water bury division of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Co. He said that buses on several routes were running behind schedule. Crews of the bus company and of the street department were kept busy sanding streets and intersections. In many cases, points became ice-covered agaiI1 within a short time after they had been covered with sand or cinders.
 The Southern New England Tel ephone Co. said that only 20 sta- tionS were out of service in the city this morning, a very small number.
 The Connecticut Light and Power Co. reported no service calls for any important trouble caused by the storm.
 Interstate bus lines cancelled a number of runs last night and early this morning as reports of danger ous read conditions came in.
 Travel conditions last night were 50 bad that the Zion Evangelical Lutheran church cancelled its 52d annual meeting.
 Capt. William Duggan, head of the police motor patrol, urged mo- torists and pedestrians to use ex- treme care.
 Weather forecasts indicate that fain will probably change to snow squalls this evening, with increas- ing winds and low temperatures.

TWO FINED FOR
 TIPSY DRIVING Grand St. Driver Escapes Evasion of RespOnsi-
 biIity Penalty

Two drivers found guilty of oper- ating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, were fined $10O and costs each this morning by John L. Gaffney in municipal court.
 Donat Michaud, A, of 31 Grand street, received suspended sen- terce on an additional charge of evading responsibility, to which he pleaded nolo contendere. Officer Conrad Baril of the motor patrol told the court that he saw Michard's car strike another vehicle on Meri- den road, but said the driver did not stop. Baril stated that he gave chase, and finally apprehended Michaud on East Main street in front of. the Sacred Heart Church.
 Delay Byrd, 35, colored, of l35 North Elm street, arrested yester- day noon by Motor Patrolman Thom- as Bedding after he sideswiped a parked car on Meadow street, en- tered plea of guilty to the drunk en driving count. Prosecutor Fred Palomba said that the car, owned by Mary Babinetz of Southington, was damaged on the left side, while the bumper and fneder of Byrd's truck were smashed.
 Four other court cases were con- tinued until later dates. They in- cluded: Edward Roberge, 51, of 19 Madison Court, violating the motor vehicle law, until tomorroy; Mary Collini, 38, of 178 Edgewood avenue, breach of the peace, unti ltomor- row; Walter Wasilauskas, 50, of 16 South Leonard street, drunkenness and breach of the peace, also until tomorrow; Thomas Daniel, 29, of 23 Sheffield street, non-support and breach of the peace, until Jan. 2l.

 In Excellent Health
Armed Forces Enjoying Best Health Record of Any
 Body of Troops in World; Preventives Outlined

supplies of this drug, we had fortu- nately built up large stock prior to that time. This, together with the greatly expanded production of atabrine, will meet our needs in even 8 protracted war"
 The statisticians point out, how ever that no body of troops ssta- tioned in the tropics can escape an appreciable amount of sickness from malaria. "But intensive antimalar- ial procedures will reduce such dis ability to minimum and prevent serious complications and deaths" !" they say. Thus, in peacetime, ma- laria was a major cause of sickness among our troops in Panama and the Philippines and among British troops stationed in the Orient and Africa. Fatal cases of the disease were, however, infreqeunt. The sit- uation in India is of special interest. Normally, cases of the disease among natives are counted in the tens of millions, and deaths exceed million 8 year. The current shortage of quinine has aggravated the situation there. Thus far, however, only rel atively few cases have been reported among our troops in India. In the South Pacific the malaria situation is less favorable, particularly in the combat areas like the Solomons."
 Troops located in the tropics Nke- wise cannot escape a good share of intestinal disorders, especially where active military operations are in progress. The amount of disability from these causes can be held with in bounds only by rigid adherence to prescribed sanitary procedures. together with systematic instruction of men in measures for self-protec- ton.
 Typhus Threat
 Typhus is of little danger to our troops, even those fighting in Northern Africa where there have been recent epidemies in the native population. The staticians say that relatively simple and tried sanitary procedures should keep them free from that disease ln Africa as well as in other endemic areas. Inocu- lallon has also been used, but It's efficacy ie still uncertain.
 The statisiiclans conclude that it would be foolish to minimize the health problems that our troops are facing. but point out that our mil- itaFy authorities are working At top speed 10 build np the facilities 10 meet these problenla, end that they have already achieved much.

With the large number of physi- clans drawn into the armed services. and with the intensive application of every possible preventive measure, American soldiers, sailors and mar ines all over the world probably have @ better health record today than any other body of troops, &C., cording to the statisticians of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Con- pany. Even in the Tropics this rec ord is better than that of any other troops under similar conditions.
 In the cold regions of Alaska, Greenland and Iceland, the health problems for the American troops are not particularly different from those with which American medical men are familiar, although these are naturally somewhat intensified. In Great Britain, conditions are quite similar to those in the United States. Available reports show that the health of our man in these areas has been extraordinarily good.
 Tropical Areas
 The far-flung tropical areas, in which American troops are fighting, present serious and varied health problems. In these regions are found not only malaria, typhus, dysentary, yellow fever and other diseases more or less familiar to us, but also some whose names even are scarcely known to most Americans
 = such as kala-azar, dengue fever, and sandfly fever. Molaria presents the most serious problem of all. Our troops. who are at all likely to be exposed to yellow fever, typhus and cholera, have been in- oculated against these diseases. Against many others, chief reliance has been placed on sanitary meas ures. The climate itself is a specific hazard in the tropics, although sea- sohed troops suffer far less from the heat than new arrivals.
 Malaria is the outstanding killer in many tropical countries" the sta- tisticlans declare. 'Its control s difficult. Under normal conditions, this depends chiefly upon destroying the breeding places of the malaria carrying mosquitoes. These mosqui- toes, however. are % prevalent that lt is impossible to prevent infection, though ita ravnges can be checked by routine administration of qui. nine or synthetic drIigs-princlpally atabEino. These do not prevent the disease, but merely keep it dormant However, in combat areas they are lho only dependable measure"
