came from can be filled up by continuing the
run with other cards.

4 S WE saw in the last article, it is
~ good rulo not to support secondary
L.. l....e ck 4,xe hor-

A S WE saw in the last article, it is a
~ good rulo not to support secondary
bids unless you have at least two hon.
ors in the suit, because it is quite likely that
the bidder has only one and that may not be
he acc. In such cases he may never take
trick until the game is saved.
But there is often an excuse for supporting
secondary bids if you have length, as the high
cards, although against the caller, will prob
ably all fall together in two rounds at the
furthcst. 1t is when you are both short and
weak that it is best to say nothing if the
secondary bid is ovcrcallcd. To deny sec
ondary bid is risky, unless you have pretty
good suit to do it with, as the very nature Of
the bid is to show that the hand is good for
little or nothing unless that suit is the trump.
If it is left in it at least saves the game.
Another point about these secondary bids,
when they arc tho first bid made, is that it is
usually bad policy to lead such suits, unless
you have two honors, il you have to lead and
the secondary bid is overcallcd. This again,
Of your own worth leading.
All these secondary bids arc ticklish things
to handle, but if they arc sound as against the
bids they overcall, they should not go down
much, even If they do not make the contract.
In any event, as already pointed out, they post
pcne the loss OF the game, which is usually
called saving it.
Here is a rather interesting and instructive
deal that~came up in a duplicate game, which
shows how differently some players Will bid
up a hand. It is curious from the fact that

FIRST WOMAN JUDGE
URGES WORLD LAW
MAKING WAR CRIME
(By Associated Press.l

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, April PA
world law making war a crime and
providing suitable punishment for it,
was advocated today by Judge Flor
ence E. Allen, of Cleveland, in an ad-
dress before the national convention of
the Young Women's Christian associa-
ton, in which she declared America
should call meeting of the world for
the express purpose of outlawing war. "
When there is no law against war
we cannot even begin to enforce the
greatest rule of equity between ma
tons, the law of the sacredness of
life" said Judge Allen, who was the
first woman judge of common pleas
court in the United States.
Those who rely completely upon 4

that such a court cannot stop war I'M
til there is a law forbidding war. It
is so in our ordinary courts. If I
have before me the most heinous muir
dered, l cannot try him, much less
sentence him, unless there is a lew
defining and providing for the punish
ment of murder. Any fighting, unless
in self-defense, between individuals is
criminal; any killing unless in self-de-
tense is murder. We have to make
the world agree that international
fighting, unless in self-defense, is Grim
