CLIP. COMPANY
 ANNOUNCES PLANS
Five-Year Program Calls for Expenditure in Ex-
 cess of $22, 100000

c. L. Campbell president of The Connecticut Light and Power Com pany, announced today that in the next five years the Company es- inmates it will spend $22, 2,000. 900 for additional electric generating units, generating unit replacements. ad- ditions to transmission and distrib- ution system facilities, and equip ment rehabilitations. MT. Camp bell estimates that the company will be able to finances practically all of the above expenditures without having to raise any additional ca pital.
 The proposed additions to the company's generating capacity in- clude the installation at the Devon power plant of an additional 45,- 900 kw high pressure steam unit to be followed by the replacement at the Montville power plant of two 10000 kw low pressure units with new 3l,250 kw high pressure steam unit. The new Devon unit will be practically identical with the fourth unit which went into service there in October 1922.
 The Bristol load has heretofore been supplied by power purchased from The Connecticut Power Com pany. This contract will be term mated and a new 69,OOO volt trans mission line will be built from the Southington substation to Bristol to enable that load to be supplied thereafter from the Company's own system. Voltages are now being raised from 69,000 to 115.000 volts on the Company's Southington- Montville transmission line and a new 115,000 volt transmission line will be constructed from Devon to a junction point with the Southing- ton-Montville line, in order to de- liver to load centers the increased electric power made available by the additional generating facilities.
 MT. Campbell said that the speed with which the $22, GOO. 900 improve ment program can be gotten under way depends largely on the avail ability of essential materials and the time in which new power plant units can be constructed. He ex- pressed qualification that the Com pany's sizeable 5 year construction and rehabilitation program will provide work for returning veter- ans and help alleviate possible un- employment in Connecticut.

 Washington, July 10 - U.P.) - The methods by which the United Nations propose to assemble mili- tary strength to prevent future wars came for review today before the Senate Foreign Relations Commit tee.
 Continuing its apprisal of the United Nations Charter, the com mitte turned its attention to the provision for joint military action the teeth" to prevent future breaches of the peace.
 Dr. Leo Pasvolsky, State Depart ment expert on the charter, was called to resume the point by -point review on which he spent four and one-half hours at yesterdays open ing session.
 Unlike the Covenant of the Old League of Nations, the new charter contemplates specific measures fol prompt action by its security coun- cil, including the use of force, tc prevent international disputes from growing into war. It proposes that member nations make armed forces available to the council, particularly fast-strikine air-force contingents and sets up a military staff committee to advise the council on the size of force needed and how it shall be employ ed.
 One phase of the terms under which such force would be employed was discussed at length at the close of yesterdays session. It involved the question of using council en- forcement measures to force bound ary changes over which there may be an international dispute.
 Senator Warren R. Austin, R., Vt. pointed out that the charter gives the council authority to recon. mend specific measures for settle. ment of disputes. This could include a recommendation that the boun. ary between two nations be chang. ed.
 Austin raised the question od whether the council could employ military force to see that such 6 recommendation was carried out.
 Pasvolsky said the council could not. He conceded, however, that such boundary dispute might leac to eventual use of armed force by the council.
 Pasvolsky's testimony also cleared up senatorial questions on severa other aspects of the charter. They included the rights of the proposed general assembly to make recon. mendations on international dis puteS and where the United States would stand on the matter of dis armament and withdrawal from the organization.
 Pasvolsky said under cross exam ination that the assembly would have no enforcement powers but would have the right to make any recommendation it desired to the security council, including recon. mendations that the council take enforcement measures.
 The other two questions-disarm- ament and withdrawal-were set tied principally by statements of Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, R.. Mich, who served as delegate to the San Francisco conference where the charter was drafted.
 Vandenberg pointed out that the

MORE TESTIMONY
 IN GAUNT TRIAL
Insurance Company Em- phasizes Violent Death
 of Waterbury Youth

Evidence was introduced by the John Hancock Mutual Insurance Company in Hartford federal dis trict court yesterday and today in an attempt to show that the death of James A. Gaunt, Jr., of Water bury was the result of violent act.
 The insurance concern is defend- ant in a $30,000 civil action brought by Mrs. Rhoda Gaunt, mother of the youth whose body was found on railroad property in South Dakota in August, 1943.
 Under terms of Hancock policies the firm is freed from payment of double indemnity if death results from the intentional act of another person"
 The concern, however, claims that policy was never actually issued to the Waterbury youth, although it admits that he had applied for one and had paid the first premium three weeks before he died.
 Arthur L. Wholey, manager of the Waterbury office, is among the witt nesses who have testified. The ap- plication for the policy was made through Morris Kelman, local insur- ance agent.
