House convened.
Churchill dashed out at political"
efforts to effect far-reaching social
changes under the pretext Of war
time necessity, and inferentially re-
jected proposals that the Beverldge
Social Security plan be adopted
while the war Is still In progress.
II could not be responsible as
presently advised for undertaking
any further great change, and GER
tainly not q permanent great
change, In ten mining industry dur
ing the war" he said, because I
think 1t would require to be ratified
or preceded by a popular mandate.
Therefore, we must resist all such
proposals"
Churchill said that at the end Of
the war there would either be gen.
eral agreement among the nations
political parties or, more probably,
a general election along party lines.
"A11y body Of men who succeeded
In breaking up the unity Of the
country in time of war would incur
the censure of the vast majority Of
the people," he warned.
Not Alarmed
II earnestly hope It may be pos
sible to preserve the national unity
after the war, but I quite frankly
would not be alarmed for the future
Of the country II we had to return
to party government"
Churchill defended the record Of
the coalition government, recalling
that II had been organized TO extri-
cate the country from q "forlorn
and somber position"
II think we have not been alto
gether unsuccessful in our task" he
said.
The prime minister assured the
miners that he was ready to nego-
tiate any improvements In the ex-
isting system Of control for the dur
alton Of the war and urged that
changes be deferred until parlia-
ment can decide on the future
structure Of the industry after the
war.
"The fifth year Of war weighs
harsh upon our minds and shoul-
ders," he said. Don't let US add to
our difficulties by any lack Of clar.
ity In thinking or FESTIVE wavering
in resolve.
ION the whole, with all our faults
and inflrmities, OF which we are
conscious, this island Is O model
throughout the world In It's unity
and perseverance towards the goal"
He told the house that only $780,.
600 tons Of coal had been lost as o
result of strikes during the past IL
months, out Of more than 200, 000,-
900 tons porduced in that period.

fellow employee at the Commercial
Scrap Company, who succufnbed to
injuries incurred when an air-hose
was played on his body.
Stating that he had carefully stu
died the evidence, Judge Cornell
said the state did not prove beyond
reasonable doubt that Dzidsevich
was guilty. A discharge was Or
dered. Dzidsevich, who Is also
known as Davis, was said to have
turned on an air valve while Che
repinsky held the air-hose, but he
claimed he did not know the hose
was placed against the victim.
In asking for leniency for Chere-
pinsky, Defense Attorney A. Henry
Weisrnan, pointed out that there
was no criminal intent when Chere-
pinsky placed the hose against his
fellow worker. He said the two
were friendly and had been seen
every day going about the grounds
with arms around each other.
Assistant States Attorney Walter
w. Srnyth In asking for q penalty
pointed out that there was no EVIL
dence to show that Cherepinsky had
intended to harm Rinchiuso physic-
ally.
MIR. Weisman said the accused
had no idea that large amount Of
pressure would be released from the
air hose.
He said the employees were ac-
customed to play the hose on one
another In order to cool off and
blow off dust, and that no harm
would have been done on the day Of
the incident If the pressure had not
been brought UP. He pointed out
that his client did not handle the
air valve throttle and did not know
how much pressure had been re-
leased.
/ The incident was compared by the
defense lawyer to q football game,
to pulling Of a chair when another
is ready to sit, and to dunking I'M

sue In any such incident, but that

Victor COty to Be Guest al Second Church Forum
 Sunday Evening

Victor Coty, sportsman, natural ist, explorer, photographer and lec- turer will present one of his finest, if not the best, of his illustrated lec- lures at the Second Church Forum on Sunday evening, January 10 at 7:30 p. m. The subject is Big Game Fishing at Cat Cay" This film was made in 1922 at Bi1nina and Cat Cay and is one of the most beauti- full and thrilling color films ever to be shown at the Forum. It covers Blue Marlin, Giant Tuna, Sharks Barracuda, Dolphin, and many other interesting fish, as well as mammals like porpoise and whales and huge turtles. The Atlantic coast offers Deep Sea Fishing of all kinds OffQ incredibly beautiful Bermuda we catch the Wahoo, fastest fish of all, barracuda, dolphin and other species. Of Ocean City, Maryland, besides finding porpoise, water SpoutS, and whates we fight the most spectacular fish of all = the white marlin. Up in Nova Scotia, we fish for Swordfish off Louisburg, where killer whale provide some beautiful sequences. At Jordan Bay and Wedgeport we find giant tunas up to a ton in weight. On Man. tucket Island we accompany the Nantucket Harriers riding to the beagles and watch the beautiful sailing races of the island.
 Victor Coty in private life is pres- ident of the Coty Machine Works in Watertown, N. Y. It has never in the past interferred with his going places any time, anywhere, and get ting the most gorgeous movies in color of hunting, fishing, skiing, swimming = anything. Now those machine works are turning out armor plate for tanks, sub-chasers, anti-aircraft equipment, etc. and Victor Coty is considered far more valuable at its helm than anywhere else. Second Church is very fortun- ate in having scheduled MT. Coty early in the Spring.

The modern chaplain is 8 man of valor, sincere religious convic- tion and softness, but he is always a man, ready to take it with his arms bearing soldiers, and here at the headquarters of the 78th Lightning Division one discov- CTS the reason why.
 If some congregations could see their Soft-spoken preachers of the woman's auxiliary socials tossing each other about in morning judo classes, church attendance likely would show an amazing incerase.
 The army chaplains, decorous as ever in the pulpit and friendly and sympathetic in conferences, resem- ble wildcats as they practice this Americanized version of ju jitsu.
 Chaplains don't carry weapons, the judo instructions explain, but they often may face attack and must be prepared to defend themselves with their second best weapons -bare hands.
 "We want to be able to handle ourselves in case anyone gets rough" Maj. T. H. Reagan, Divi- sion chaplain, explained, "and these classes help greatly"
 The classes are like any other field instruction meetings which are molding the combat teams of the Lightning Division. Not only chap lains but their clerks and orgat1iSts
