GOOD HEALTH LEADS TO
SUCCESS

In answer to the question,
why do you eat?" the follow
ing answers were received:
/. eat because the food tastes
good.
2. eat because / like to eat.
3. | eat because my body
needs the energy that food
gives.
4. / eat because / want TO
live.
5. l eat because my life work
depends upon my body.
If more peoples answers

less, each would have been
worded differently but i'll reality
all would point in the same di-
rection. Each man vies with
another for success in some
achievement and each mans sue

of his body. A starved, under

Every man and woman, boy

need not be written on our walls,

Our big job is to conquer our

hours playing poker, who in
dulged in intoxicating beverages
or violated in some other ways,

But let US resolve: that as

will do all within our power to
win the victory by keeping
healthy. We can If we will.

recent announcement of his ap-
preaching passion. They were
going through a process OF adj
justment In their own thinking.
They were convinced that Jesus
was the Christ, but they could
not understand why the Christ
must suffer. They needed fur
ther light and assurance at this
point.
1t is not without significance
that in Luke's account of the
TRANSPORTATION (Luke 9-31) he
tells us that Moses and Elijah
on the mountain spoke "of his
decease which he was about to
accomplish at Jerusalem. This
reference to the inner sources
Of such an experience does not
detract anything from the di-
vine meaning Of this hour Of
exalted inspiration. The order
ly will of God works through
human and natural processes.
The cause of a moment of high
vision may often be traced to
what has previously occupied
the mind. Whatever may be the
explanation of these hallowed
hours on the mountaintop, the
experience resulted in needed
encouragement for the disciples.
1t doubtless had its value, too,
for Jesus himself, whose faith
and courage must have been
sorely tried in those days pre-
ceding his passion.
Peters remarks on this occas-
ion give us an insight into his
character. He had capacity for
leadership and usefulness. Jesus
recognized this when he said,
Thou art Peter, and upon this
rock l will build my church"
(Matthew 1919. But he did
not always think clearly or show
good judgement. "He knew not
what to answer" on this occas-
ion. He was bewiidered and
amazed. He offered the we'll
meant suggestion of the three
shelters, intimating that 1t was
a good place to stay for a while.
He did not realize that such ex-
periences are OF value only as
they prepare us to return to the
lower levels of daily living,
where we may render better
service. The essential thing in
the story Is the presence Of

Jesus on the mountain or in the
valley. Though the mood Of ex-
ultation passed, the three dis
ciples were still aware of Jesus
only with themselves.
For Peter, James, and John
this experience must have re-
mained in their memories as
something to fall back upon.
Their thought must have re-
turned to 1t again and again as
a source of assurance and
courage. Years later Peter re-
fers to 1t in the paragraph from
one of his letters recorded in
our lesson: This voice we our
selves heard when we were
with him on the holy mount" :"
He could not forget this Incl
dent. 1t was like an anchor for
his faith. Faith based upon the
presence and power OF God is
the most valuable possession of
the Christian.

Kansas Labor Opens
Federal Court Fight
AGAINST State Control
Union Attorneys Expect
Thousands Of Arrests
Unless New Law Is Stuyed
BY the Associated Press.

Sy the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY. Kans., April 29.-
Kansas new labor union-control
law. upheld by the Republican legis-
lative majority as a model for the
Nation, headed into two Federal
Court tests today, with union at
torney's claiming thousands of ar
rests are inevitable unless its ap-
plcation is stayed.
The law, enacted month ago, re-
ouires licenses for union business
agents, specifies unions must report
their dues, officers salaries and
status of union funds. and restricts
picketing and the conduct of strikes.
Two Bills in Equity Filed.
Two bills in equity were filed in
United States District Court yester-
day challenging constitutionality of
the act. Union attorneys filed the
Identical suits on behalf of the
Kansas City Building and Construc-
ton Trades Council, AFL. and the
United Mine Workers of America
Cliff Langsdale, attorney for the
AFL building trades group, said that
If application of the law were not
stayed he anticipates several thou
sand arrests, due to inability or re-
fusal of business agents to apply
for licenses.
Judge Richard j. Hopkins said he
would hear the petitions today. He
has authority to issue restraining
order but constitutionality of a
State law can be determined only
by three-judge decision, he ex-
planned.
Charge Free Speech Denied.
The suits asserted picketing re-
strictions in the act deny constitu-
tional freedom Of speech. The law
prohibits picketing by force and
violence, or beyond the area of an
industry, or to prevent ingress or
egress from any premises.
The suits contend requiring pub
lie reports of union finances de
prives the union of its constitutional
right to conduct its affairs in its
own way" They add that it is un-
reasonable to single out labor unions
In this way.
Licensing of business agents, the
petitions said, "abridges the privi-
leges of citizens" and would include
nearly every member of a labor
organization.
Attorney Langsdale called the
financial statement requirement
class legislation, and said it would
require every business agent in the
United States to file reports in
Kansas.

ChampIinBoxCo. Is Fined $50 For Labor Violations

Although charged with 28 viola tions of the State Labor Laws by Factory Inspector Earnest Certz, the ChampIin Box Co.,, which was charged, among other things, with causing a woman to turn in a re- port of lOl hours work in one week, was found guilty on only two charges in the Hartford Police Court.
 Judge Abraham A. Ribicoff fined Plant Manager Earl H. Hodge, $25 on each count and permitted the change from original charges of 2S violations against the company March 16, by the factory inspector because of extenuating circumstances.
 The Labor Department had charged the Box Co. with the em- pIOyment of minors and of women i'm hours in excess of the legal limits that existed before Gov. Baldwin suspended the hour law for women. It also charged the company with failure to keep true and accurate records.
 A woman worker was reported tC have turned in time records showing 101 hours in one week, in order t( receive money due her for overtim, work
 Hodge testified that a shortage of experienced workers necessitated overtime work on records for the company. He entered plea of nOlo on the two counts on which he was fined.

War Contract Brokers Still Collecting Unconscionable" Fees

''In spite of all the fanfare, there still flourish in Wash ingtOn and throughout the country many war contract brokers who are receiving an- nual compensation going we'll into six figures-amounts so excessive that they will shock the conscience of Congress and the American people,"
 That statement came this week from the House Naval Affairs Committee, which list ed g ''brOkers'' in Washing ton who a few months ago started on shOestrings and are now headed for the million aire class.
 Many millions of dollars have already been paid in commissions and they will col lect additional millions unless the business is Outlawed, the committee said.
 HEAVY COMMISSIONS
 A former electric rate clerk, w.. Lester Baker of Washington, was shown to have obtained $26l ,947 on commissions on the sale of mattresses to the Navy.
 Three brokers doing business as Shirley, Olcott and Nichols cleaned up $972,S86 last year, $6O9 ,OOO in l94l, and will collect even larger sums this year.
 William ScrimgeOur and his son William were paid $43O,259 and have only fairly started.
 Alexander H. Stone was paid $25, 1925 last year and will receive $429, ,259 this year.
 These were cited as samples of brokers" who have been investigated by the committee and who have been shown to have collected commissions totalling $15,000O00.

Hartford School Workers Submit Their Contract
(Continued from Page One)

(OOIllIlueQ l1Olll age OllCJ
 In a determined but unsuccessful effort to secure just wages, the school workers in 1940 organized an inde- pendent union. Last fall they disbanded this organization and organized, 1T its place, a local in the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.
 The wage schedule submitted by the school workers to the Board of Education is as follows:
 MatrOns - from SLIGO to $I,15C.
 Watchmen-$l, 500 to $l, 600.
 Janitors, messengers firemen Glow pressure bOiler)-$l, ,56O to $l, ,68O.
 Bremen (high pressure boil ers)-$l,7OO to $l,85O
 Building custOdians-Class 2, $l,92O to $2,O4O; Class 3, $2,22O to $2,34O; Class 4, $2,7 ,76O to $2,82O.
 General repairmen and me- chanic helpers = $l,74O to $l,86O.
 Licensed mechanics-$2,O4O to $2,22O.
 Last year Hartford city employees were given $60 annual wage in crease to help meet the rise in living costs. This raised the maximum for ,anitors to $1,560. Other janitors whose wages were not cut in the 1884 and 1885 reductions to less than $1, ,560 did not participate in this raise.
 The Board of Finance has given the Board of Education an addi- tional $14,OO for l943 to operate lhe schools.
 The school directors have said they want to use this money to pay overtime wages to the members of the greatly reduced janitorial force of the school system.
 Local 556 contends that this allotment plus money saved by various economics put into effect by the Board would take care of proposed increases in wages. School workers estimate that the new schedule would incur an additional cost of $l9,OOO.

 after completed and approved by the Area Committee, to Joseph A. Smith, Boston, director of the New England W.M.C.
 Mrs. Marshall declared that the adoption of a stabilization plan for the New Haven area would not mear that labor will be frozen on the joh in war plants. She pointed out that stabilization plans permit a change oi job under various circumstances wher the change tends to ease unnecessary hardships on an individual and enables him to contribute more to the wal effort
 "Stabilization tends to put brake on unnecessary turnover of labor," she stated. Accordingly, provisions are invariably made in these plans where by an employee may change his jot for acceptable reasons" >"
 Among the acceptable reasons, she listed:
 CD To permit the worker to use his highest skill.
 CD To provide a full-time position where the workers is on a part-time job.
 (3) To overcome transporta- ton difficulties that arise for various reasons.
 (4) For compelling personal reasons.
 It is expected that the plan which will be devised and approved for the New Haven area will be as liberal as similar plans in other communities having similar problems with which to contend.

Workers Robbed ByCompensation Frauds In N. Y.

NEW YORK.-ThOusands of in- jured workers in this state have been robbed of thousands of dol lars in insurance by conspiracy of physicians, attorneys, fixers, commercial laboratory operators, insurance employees and state labor department officials.
 The big fraud was exposed at the opening session of state in vestigatiOn into the WOrkmen's Compensation Act, which also re- veaIed that compensation practice is held in such low esteem that few reputable doctors or lawyers will handle such cases and that ma jor reform of the act is necessary to protect the workers.
 Testimony before the investigators revealed how the fraud worked:
 CD Because individual fees are relatively small, a physician, attorney or state licenses representative could n't proftably afford to practice in the compensation field, so physician would then seek out lawyer or rep resentative who had the volume.
 @ Kickbacks of 20 per cent to 30 per cent had to be promised by the doctor to the lawyer or the state representative in order to get a part of the business and because of such a big kickback the doctor would natu- rally pad medical bills to increase his cut.
 (3) Officials of the state insurance fund, which does B per cent of all compensation business in this city, had to be bribed to assure that the inflated medical bills would go through un- challenged.
