when Friedrich was formally in

between Admiral Horthy, Regent Of

were a sorry-looking lot. But things

"The SavinofF restaurant was a

customers gave me an inspiration
for more than one bas-relief, from

ing If their partner makes the first
bid. These three belong to the de-
clarer and have been counted on by
him.
In looking for these three tricks,
lin order to lay them aside, mental
ly, as it were, high cards in plain
suits should be counted as usual, at
their attacking values-aces worth
two, kings one, and the combinations
as already given. The only differ
'ence to remark is that if the adver-
saries call suit any high cards in
that suit drop at once to defensive
value, or one-half.
The high cards in trumps, when
the partner bids that suit, also drop
to half their value. For the trump
holding, the values vary with the
number, and the following table
should be carefully memorized and
practiced with by dealing out hands:
Dummay's Trump Values
Three small trumps, or two, one
as good as the queen, are worth
nothing.
Four small trumps are worth a
trick.
Three trumps, one as good as the
queen, are worth q trick.
Four trumps, headed by two
honors, are worth two tricks
No combination Of trumps is
worth more than two tricks, as
trumps.
When short in trumps, one or two
small only, deduct trick in count
ing up the hand.
The ability to ruff the first round
Of suit Is as good as an ace; two
tricks.
The ability to ruff the second
round Of suit is as good as q king
one trick.
The ability to ruff two rounds is
as good as an ace and king, only
when holding four trumps or more.
In future articles we shall see how
these values work out in practice.
The solution Of last weeks prob
lem, No. 20, in which hearts were
trumps and w wanted six tricks,
is as follows:
z leads the club queen, A plays
the six and Y discards a diamond.
q leads diamond, which Y trumps,
and leads the spade queen. If B
covers, z trumps with the ten of
hearts, and leads the jack, followed
by small trump, which puts B in.
Now B must lead the spades to Y.
Observe that if z starts with the
club queen and then leads another
club for Y to trump, B will under
trump. Now must lead two rounds
Of trumps to exhaust A; but he can
not put B into the lead after doing
30, because B will discard the jack
Of diamonds on the last trump lead
and A will make two diamonds.
New-York tribune., 1920-09-26

perfect right to change. II A could
have defeated the heart contract, but
not the spades, she should have passed,
it being a good rule not to double one
suit unless prepared to double any
thing else.
Question-The dealer bids one no.
trump, and the only four-card suit
held by the leader was hearts-queen,
ten, nine and trey. We have q little
bet as to the correct card to lead from
such combination.-H. B. W.
Answer-While these suits, headed
by honors not in sequence, are ad-
mittedly bad ones to open, one must
lead something, and IL such suit is
selected, there being no high-card COM
bination from which to lead, the proper
opening is the fourth-best; in this
case the trey Of hearts.

lowed by cries, and sometimes by ap-

bombardment from the air. It is
on these grounds that the Italian
government the other day demanded
his extradition as a war criminal.
Prior to this he figured on the atroc-
ity list of the Jugo-Slav govern
ment, which demanded his surrender
because of a decree of his ordering
the execution Of threescore discon-
tented Jugo-Slav sailors.
The murder Of defenseless Italian
women and children and the mas
sacre of unarmed Croat sailors,
however, were mere stepping-stones
in Horthy's career as a mass mur-
derer, preliminary training course
in atrocity as it were. "Der Tag"
came for Horthy in August, 1919,
when the Rumanians defeated Bella
Kun's red army. Horthy, who had
been commander in chief (minus an
army of the Hungarian counter
revolutionary government at Sziget,
organized his so-called national
army, which was originally no army
at all, merely a loose federation Of
a number of observation-disclosures
gangs of royalist officers who had
lest their jobs through the dissolu-
tion of the old ro-Hungarian
army and now sought to combine
pleasure and business by the mas
sacre Of communists and the mur-
der and plunder Of the Jewish
population of the Hungarian coun-
tryside.
Never Faced an Enemy
The prestige Of this national
army was founded mainly on the
fact that it never faced an armed
enemy. After it's cheap victories
over the Jewry of western Hungary
this army entered Budapest on No
vember Is, 1916-two days after the
Rumanians evacuated.
Since then this officers army has
been the real government of Hun
gary-with an authentic record of
atrocities far surprising that of the
Turks in Armenia in wanton bru-
tality. The officers began by muir
dering communists for revenge !;
they proceeded to murder Jews for
loot; then they hit upon the happy
idea that the best way to perpetuate
their regime was to exterminate
everybody-Socialists, trade union
lists, liberals-who was likely to
dissent from them politically; final
ly, having fed on the blood of their
victims for some time, they took a
fancy to the taste and went in for
numbering and torturing people as
fine art.
The Budapest government had
neither the will nor the power to end
these horrors. Its policy was first
to deny that these conditions ex-
listed; when, however, the publica-
tion Of the report of the British
labor delegation on the White Ter
ror made further denials impossi-

BILE, the government changed its
tactics by disclaiming responsibility
for the massacres, which, it is said,
were the work Of irresponsible
elements.
1t is on this army of Terrorist
officers that the power of Regent
Horthy actually rests; the National
Assembly is joke and everybody
knows it. The officers even 20 TO
the length of beating up" members
of the Assembly who have incurred
their displeasure.
When Admiral Horthy was elected
Regent by this Assembly (the cleo
ton was prompted by the presence,
with fixed bayonets, of the so-called
Ostenburg detachment of the
army he stood on the platform of
Hapsburg restoration. He indicated
that he acted merely as lieutenant
Of King Charles, who would return
to the throne as soon as the political
situation at Paris would permit,
Moved to the Palace
But very soon there came signs
that Horthy was not anxious at all
to hand over the supreme power to
Charles. The Regent took up his
residence at the magnificent royal
palace and surrounded himself with
all the ponnp and circumstance of
royalty. He initiated in every sense
the traditional ways and attitudes Of
"a king of Hungary.
The National Assembly passed a
law declaring the person of the
Regent sacronsanct; thus all offenses
against him partook of the quality
of lese-majeste. Finally, in April,
the whole national army had to
render the oath Of allegiance TO the
Regent-a measure deeply resented
by the Legitimists, who still felt
themselves bound by their oath to
Charles.
Horthy's growing power and pres
tige was viewed with jealous rage
by Friedrich, whose one desire was
to seize the dictatorship once more.
AS between Horthy and Friedrich
and their respective followings there
is absolutely no divergence of prin-
ciples or purpose: both stand for
reactionary nationalism, for anti
Semitism in its extreme form, for
militarism, feudalism, monarchy and
the reconquest Of Hungary's lost
territories. The only disagreement
between the two arises from
the fact that both want to be "It."
Source of Rorthy's Power
Horthy's chief support comes from
the chiefs Of the two most dreaded
detachments of the army, Major
Pronay and Captain Ostenburg.
Friedrich's mainstay is the Society
Of Awakening Magyars. This body
is closely initiating in purpose
and methods the Black Hundreds Of
czaristic Russia, only it is much
more ferocious and bloodthirsty than
its late Russian counterpart and its
power in the state is comparatively
much greater.

a s WE have seen in preced-
IA ing articles, the foundation
4 " for any original or free bid
by the dealer, or by the
second hand if the dealer passes, is
four tricks, counting the high cards
at their attacking value. Hands that
are stronger than this we shall come
to presently. The first thing to i'm
press on the mind is that four tricks,
unless unusually distributed, should
be bid. II the four are in 8 very
short major suit, or In the two major
suits, both Of which are short, the
holder must pass and await develop
ments.
Four tricks is the minimum for a
bids but the minimum contract is
seven. In order to carry out such
contract the three extra tricks
must be found in the dummy. This
is on the assumption, Of course, that
the hands will produce in play what
they are worth in theory. Some
hands that count for four will be
worth trick more; some a trick
less, but they will work out to the
average with astonishing precision.
While il is a simple matter to
count up hand and 80 to arrive
at its value, it is quite another mat
ter to get out of it all the tricks
that are possible. The theory Of
the count does not vary, and the
only thing that is likely to vary, not
only materially but continually, is
The ability Of the players to get out
Of the hands all that there Is in
them.
II the original bid ls based on
four values and no more, the aver
age for the dummy, or assisting
hand, will be three, as that is his
share, one-third, Of the nine that re-
main to be decided, there being thir-
teen tricks to be won in every deal.
Leaving the initial declaration for
the present, let us move across the
table to the partners position and
take look at the cards that will
form the prospective dummy. If the
initial bidders hand contains only
four tricks, we must be able to de-
termine whether or not dummy has
the three that will be necessary to
fulfill the contract.
It ia quite true that dealer who
starts with q bid Of only one may
have six or eight tricks in his hand,
but his partner has no right to as
sumo that he has any more than
four. This being the basis Of all
sound logic in assisting bids, we
come. naturally, to the statement
that three Of the tricks in the dunn
my have been discounted; have been
included In the dealers bid, and
! nanss not be counted on as worth
anything in advancing the contract
to 8 higher figure.
Overlooking this consideration,
and regarding three Of the tricks
m dummy as worth nothing, 80 FAR
as assisting is concerned, leads to
more penalty scores at the card table
thsn Anything else in the game Of
auction. Almost every defeated con-
sraes has been unjustiAably assisted.
IL as remarkable that 30 MANY ner-
sons who have played auction almost
svsF since 1t was invented, and who
pasy as ie almost every day Of their
lives either never stop TO think or
90 noe realize that three OF the
tricks tn thsir hands arc worth moth.
