ance for a no trump 1t was still pos.
sible that the game might not be won
with diamonds and he trusted his
partner.
The latter repaid the trust by his
excellent play at trick L. 1t was
easy to reason that the declarer could
win the first trick with a knave of
diamonds. Had he done SO no other
diamond trick could have beer won
by dummy's hand nor could the de-
clarer have secured game against
careful play by the adversaries.
With two reentries in dummy the
declarer could afford to allow the ace
and queen of diamonds to win and by
so doing made eleven tricks a certain
ty against any possible nay by the
adversaries.
A very pretty pay for games is
shown In the next deal.

and were hopeful that the prospect of

TT is authoritatively announced at
L the White House that President
Coolidge believes industry throughout
the United States Is generally pros
porous, that business conditions are
promising and that the outlook is
highly satisfactory. He has received
reports of the satisfactory condition of
many agricultural products, especially
corn. of good markets for cattle and of
fair prices for hogs. The fruit situa-
ton has been handicapped by a car
shortage. but the Department of Agri-
culture is cooperating with the rail
roads, growers organizations and
others to relieve the strain. The tex
tile and steel industries are doing
fairly well some mining industries
are not so prosperous; the Oklahoma
oil region is having difficulties owing
to the large oil production farther
west.
