 Costs Tuesday Night

Dr. Alphonse Perren, Finance Of- ficer of Nestle -Unilac of Stamford Connecticut, will address Hartford Chapter, National Association of Cost Accountants, on the subject of International Cartels and Costs on Tuesday evening, January 18th, at The Elm Tree Inn, Pennington
 To many statesmen, economists and leading business men of this and other countries, the choice to be made between private enterprise under it's present imperfect, and often monopolistic, form and gov- ernment-controlled economy seems, after winning the war the most important problem of the day. Dr. Perren has made a comprehensive study of this subject as well as that of the historical development of costs, and will, in his address, ex- anime the relationship of these two subjects.
 The speaker holds the Doctors degree in economies and commer- cial science from the University of Neuchatel, Switzerland, and was at one time Professor of Banking and Finance at that institution. Prior to the war he served as Vice Pres ident of the Swiss Banking Com mission (the Swiss Federal Re- serve BoardD and since 1939 has been connected with the Nestle Urilac group in Switzerland and this country as Officer in charge of Finance. pr.

 Dr. Judd entered U. S. Army as private in 1918. Discharged as 2nd It. in 1919 and has been a 2nd It. in the Field Artillery Officers Re- serve corps from 1919 to 1924. Dr. Judd carried on his professional work in the United States for he Is the kind of doctor the Mayo Clinic asks for on Its staff, and at the same time spoke throughout Minnesota and other parts of the United States. His voice was heard over the air many times and in special conference at Washington. All who know Dr. Judd call him the most unaffectedly honest man they have ever met. Nothing shakes Judd in his Christian belief that the way of love works. He tested it out again and again in China in the face of death. Being sent to Washington as a congressman hasn't changed his ideas. Both he and his wife are faithful workers in the church there, and unless he is of on a speaking trip he attends church reg ularly with his wife and children. When Dr. Judd starts to speak in the House We are told that even if the members are scattered abouJ the chamber, they begin to come in and take their seats.
