Bishop Brady Pays Tribute To Successor
NEA Telephoto.

Boston, Jan. 3 - (U.P) - The Most Rev. Edward F. Ryan. chap lain of the famed 89th Middlewest division in World War I, was con- secrated fifth bishop of the Burling- ton, Vt., diocese today in the Cath edral of the Holy Cross here amid the traditional resplendence of the Roman Catholic ritual.
 The conservation marked the first time that Archbishop Richard J. Gushing of Boston had raised priest to the fullness of holy orders, and also the first time such cere- mony had been held in the Cathed- ral since the archbishop himself was consecrated by the late William Cardinal O'Connell in 1889.
 Bishop Ryan, for the past l2 years pastor of the Holy Name church in Roxbury, succeeds Bishop Matthew F. Brady, a native Of Waterbury, Conn, who becomes head of the Manchester, N. H., See. A native of Lynn, the 64-year-old prelate was named to his new post several weeks ago by Pope Plus XII.
 Assiting Archbishop Gushing as co-consecrators were Archbishop Francis J. Spellman of New York, Military Vicar for the United States, and Bishop Francis P. Keough of Providence, R. l.. native Of New Britain, Conn. Attending the cere- mony were more than 20 members of the Catholic hierarchy including all the New England Bishops, as well as numerous monsignori.
 The chalice used at the Pontifical Mass was the vessel cOnsecrated by Pope Leo XIII for Archbishop John J. Williams on the latters silver jubilee 53 years ago. The chasuble worn by Archbishop Gushing was made in Rome 38 years ago on the occasion of Cardinal O'ConnelPs ap- pointment as co-adJutor head of the archdiocese.
 In his sermon, Bishop Brady paid tribute to his successor both as a gallant chaplain and as a zealous parish priest.
 Cambridge and other cities of this commonwealth knew Him as a zealous young curate. and West Concord and West Roxbury as an outstanding pastor and administra- tor" said Bishop Brady. The bat- tle-flelds of the last war witnessed his courage and priestly minstra- tIons; city hospitals knew his com passion as a eonsoler of the afflicted

Poles Decree Affects U. 5.
BY HENRY SHAPIRO United Press Staff Correspond

ETcSS AOAACopOAuChN
 Lublin, Jan. 3-(UP)-The pro vis: .nal government of Poland served notice to the governments and busi- ness firms of the world today that 1t would not honor any financial undertaking, commitment or loan negotiated by the rival exile regime in London
 The announcement was in the form of a decree that proclaimed the provisional government the sole legal authority expressing the will of the Polish people and carrying out the task of liberating the re- mainder of Poland from the Ger mans.
 The decree obviously was designed to cut off the exile government frcr' any financial support at time when it hardly was in a position to realize any revenue from Poland It. self. It appeared bound to have far reaching consequences in future economic relations between Poland and the United Nations, principal ly the United States, Britain and France.
 The decree warned that any goy- ernment or private organization negotiating an economic transaction with the exile regime would do so at it's own risk and at the same time would ieopardize Its own in terests, in so far as the provisional government were concerned.
 The measure does not apply to past commitments of the London government. but h all present and future negotiations

Lawyer Says Court Erred On Sentence

Claiming the Winchester town court had no jurisdiction to sen tence Emil Prociewicz, l6-year-old Torrington youth, to the state re- formatory, Attorney Hyman Silver of Torrington today presented a demurrer in common pleas court to a claim the youth was found guilty of taking a motor vehicle without permission.
 Judge Miles F. McNiff reserved decision on the demurrer following a lengthy hearing, at which Assist ant States Attorney Walter w. Smyth appeared for the state and for George c. Erskine, superintend- ent of the correctional institution.
 The demurrer was entered as part of the pleadings in habeas corpus proceedings instituted in an attempt to get a discharge from the re- formatory for the youth.
 The defense counsel claimed the jurisdiction of the town court is limited to offenses punishable by a fine of not more than $l,000 or im- priSonment in states prison for not more than two years, or both. He alleged the penalty was prescribed for first offense, and that the youth was charged with a second offense which carries a higher max imum penalty and which can not be imposed in the town court.
 Judge McNiff noted the absence of any statement on the second of fense claim in the papers and was told by the defense counsel the fac- tor was brought out by "indirec- tion."
 The states counsel claimed the second ofense angle can not enter the case. since there was no record to show the motor vehicle charge involved a second offense. He claimed "the greater penalty in- cludes the less, and stated the re- formatory sentence was proper since it did not exceed the maximum penalty the town court could im- pose.
 The boy, who was brought to the court last Wednesday at the start of the proceedings, was not in the courtroom today, since the hearing was only on the technical phase of the case

 (Unlted Press Staff Correspondent Washington, Jan, 3-(UPl-Plans for another Big Three" conference to iron out mounting differences between the big Allied nations ape peared today to hinge chiefly on definite word from Soviet Premier Josef 6talin,
 Prime Minister Winston Churchill has called repeatedly and in strong terms for a quick meeting with MT, Roosevelt and Stalin. The pres ident has been somewhat less fer vent, but hos said repeatedly that he hoped conference could be ar- ranged, From Stalin. however, there has been no public expression. It was well 'nown that he was loath to leave Russian soil while his armies are engaging the Germans, and Mir.

New Benefits For Vets Aim Of Governor

Hartford, Conn, Jan. 3 - CU.PO In his third inaugural address, Governor Raymond E. Baldwin to- day called for continuation of the war production which has made Connecticut first among states in per capita output of war materials, and outlined 8 legislative program before a joint session of the l945 General Assembly.
 We should place the success of the (war effort) above every consid- eration of party or personal adyan- tage," he said in his prepared talk. Three years Of wartime working and living must not make us callous to the sacrifices that are daily being made nor to the duties and obliga- tions and the great tasks that are yet ahead.
 We can keep our industries with us so long as we can keep our people with us. To keep our people with us, to always have a sufficient num- Der of skilled and loyal working men and women, and able and capable managers, we must strive to make  Connecticut an ever better place in which to live and to work and to raise our families"
 His program Of recommended leg islation included additional bene- fits to war veterans; enactment of a state labor relations act; state aid to municipalities in educational programs; continuation of the state war council to coordinate war actiY- ities and Of the state post war plan ming board to coordinate post war projects, and special help to farmers.
 He endorsed a proposed amend ment to the state constitution which provides four-year terms for state officers, beginning in l950, because elections in the state should not be bound up with national elec- tions.' He also recommended re- vision Of voting machines so that

Casualties
 Not Issued
BY JAMES McGLINCY United Press War Correspondent

Paris, January 3. - (UPD - Su- preme Allied Headquarters remained adamant today in its refusal 10 tell the American public one Of the bit- terest results of the Germans break through on the western front - the extent of American casualties
 The Germans already have claimed that four American diyis- ions, including the l06th, were de- stroyed and six others cut-up in their smash through Belgium and Luxembourg Some 30000 prisoners were taken alone and the number of dead and wounded ranged even higher German accounts said
 Whether these figures We're pure propaganda or not, the German command obviously knows how many dead it has recovered, and probably could make q shreBd guess as to how many dead and wounded were taken away by lhe reueatiD2 Americans
 But supreme headquarters still bans any detailed disclosure ol cas- ualtles despite the fact that Ameri- cans at home have been told that production and draft calls will have 10 be increased to replace losses snf- fered in the oonnier-ottenslye.
 The Id on this perhaps darkest side Of the German eOunter-ofiens- i've gas lifted just slightly at . press conference yesterday by Big Gen Anthony C, McAullfie. who rejected German demand for the surrender Oi Bastogne.
 He disclosed that one unit al Bas- togne known as "Snafu" - Army slang for situation normal. ail ionled mp was comprised ol bat- tered stragglers Of American units dispersed and forced to make a fighting and by no means always organized retreat from the break through front.
 Censorship prevents disclosure of the units represented in "Snafu",
