WORLD court
POLICY STANDS,
| SAYS COOLIDGE
Doubts If U. S. viii Become
Member Except Under
Senate's Conditions.
BY HUNT CLEMENT JR.
United Press Steg .Cn<respondent

WASHINGTON Dee. 14.-Presi-
dent Coolidge doubts this nation
will become associated with the
world court except under conditions
already laid down by the Senate.
In response to recent appeals
from a number Of citizens that the
country'S foreign policy be broad
ened, Coolidge has instructed the
State Department to study COR
respondence from foreign govern
ments and learn whether ANYTHING
might be secured through further
negotiations.
This correspondence developed
from this country's rejection of the
world court and comprises foreign
official comment on the conditions
to United States participation set
up by the Senate.
The President feels that no en-
couragement for further negotiations
is to be found in the papers.
The policy of the United States
has been clearly defined, the Presi-
dent believes. Furthermore, several
Senators friendly to the court have
informed him that no modification
of the Senate's position was in
prospect.
The Senate took the position that
members Of the Court ought not to
be permitted to give advisory
opinions affecting strictly American
questions, and perhaps jeopardizing
American interests. It was on this
reservation that the entry of Ameri-
ca foundered.
Appeals to the President for ac-
ton have come from several sources
recently, notably from the Women's
International League for Peace and
Freedom, which presented an arhi-
tration petition signed by 10000
persons. A petition from certain
prominent individuals including
writer's and others, also urged a
broader foreign policy.

Lederman either must play his King
or allow Dummy to win with the 10.
= q
TN either case Whitehead would
4 make the extra trick needed for
game. Game, therefore, was wholly
dependent upon the location of the
Jack Of Hearts. Lederman played
his King of Hearts; Dummy won
with the Ace.
Dummy returned the 2 Of Hearts;
Adams played the 3; Declarer the
Queen; Lederman the Z.
Whitehead then led the z of Dia-
monds; Lederman played the 10;
Dummy trurnped with the z of
Spades: Adams discarded the 6 Of
Hearts.
Whitehead then claimed the rest
Of the tricks, as he had nothing but
trumps left in his hand.
The adversaries conceded the
claim; and Whitehead scored So
trick points for game in Spades,
and 40 in the honor score for four
honorS divided.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-12-14

Whitehead had the Queen. Had
Adams allowed Lederman to hold
the Club trick, Lederman, after TAX
ing a second Club trick, would have
been compelled to lead away from
his King of Hearts up to White
heads Queen; thus giving White
head two Heart tricks.
To have the Heart lead come from
Adams hand might prevent the loss
of one trick.
Before leading Hearts, Adams led
his King of Clubs. Whitehead
played the 8; Lederman the q;
Dummy the Z.
Adams then led his Of Hearts;
Whitehead played the 8; Whitehead,
like Adams, placed the King Of
Hearts in Mr.. Le-lerman's haISt.
Whitehead further realized that II
Lederman held the Jack also, there
was no way to prevent the loss Of a
Heart trick.
But if Adams held the Jack, then

for opening either Hearts or Clubs.
T. fact, there seemed to be more
reason than ever for leading a
trump, in view of Whitehead's ap-
parent desire to ruff Diamonds.
Dummy played the 6 OF Spades:
Adams the Queen; Declarer the
Ace.
Whitehead then led the Jack Of
Diamonds; Lederman played the 8;
Dummy discarded the of Clubs;
Adams played the Of Diamonds.
Whitehead continued with the 8
Of Clubs; Lederman covered with
the 10; Dummy played the 4; Adams
overlook with the Jack. Adams
knew from the bidding that his
partner held the Ace and Queen Of
Clubs; and since but two Club tricks
could be taken, he decided to take
them himself in order afterwards
to lead Heart.
TINE fact that Lederman opened
J. trumps originally in preference
to leading a Heart clearly indicated
that he held the King Of Hearts
without the Queen.
Therefore Adams knew that
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-12-14

Nothing remained but a trump
lead, which is conventional when
holding honor combinations such as
Lederman's, or guarded honors in
all plain suits.
Lederrnan, therefore, led the 9 of
Spades. Dummy went down, and
Whitehead played from it the 2 of
Spades. Adams played the 3, as he
correctly placed the Ace-Jack-10
with Whitehead, and knew there
was no reason for going in with his
Queen. Whitehead won with the 10
of Spades.
Before proceeding with the play,
Whitehead estimated his chances
for game. Apparently he had to
Hose two Club tricks, one Diamond
trick, and one Heart trick, which
wo1ld leave him one trick short of
game.
Only crafty finesse could save
him. Should the adversaries, at first
opportunity, lead Clubs, game was
impossible. Whitehead's problem
was to induce them to make some
other lead.
The best procedure seemed for
him not to return the trump suit.
Whitehead reasoned that his failure
to do so would induce the adver-
saries to believe that he did not
wish trumps led, possibly because he
wished to utilize. Dummy's trumpS
in ruf1ng Diamonds.
What then more natural for the
adversaries than the lead Of a sec
ond trump, instead of switch to
Clubs or to any other suit?
AS the first step in his plan of
play, Whitehead opened his Dia-
mond suit, leading the Queen in
order to induce the adverSarieS to
hold off on the first lead so that
he could lead second Diamond.
Lederman played the 6, thinking
that his partner might hold the
King, If he did not then White
head must hold it, and there was
no danger of losing the Ace. Dunn
my played the q; Adams the 8.
~ u u
WHITEHEAD continued with
w the King of Diamonds, con-
cealing his Jack. LederWan played
the Ace; Dummy the 4; Adams the
5.
Lederman, quite naturally deceiv-
ed by Whitehead's maneuvers, I'M
suspectingly led the of Spades.
Lederman could see no more reason
at this point than in the beginning

XXTILBUR @. WHITEHEAD of
Wv s

|WnBUR 9. WHITEHEAD Of
W New York, proved his right
to be called "the genius Of the game
in his play of the Radio Bridge hand
broadcast from Station WFTBM
Tuesday night, under auspices of
The Times.
Whitehead, as dealer, South,
opened the bidding with one Spade,
on these cards: Spades, A, j, 10, 5,
4; Hearts, @, s; Diamonds, K, @, j,
z; Clubs, 8, 6.
The West playe:: was Harold Led
erInan of Kansas City, Mo. He
made a legitimate defensive bid of
two Clubs on this holding: Spades,
9, 8; Hearts, K, 7; Diamonds, A, 10,
8, 6; Clubs, A, @, III, s, 2.
Work, North, went to two Spades.
His cards we're: Spades, K, z q;
HScs:=55S, A, 10, 4, 2; Diamonds, 4, q;
Clubs, 7, 4, 8. His four Spades to
the King, his side Ace and his abil-
ity to ruff the third round of Dia-
monds were all elements Of strength
justifying his assist of his partners
bid
Charles T. Adams of Chicago, the
East player, was forced to pass on
this hand: Spades, @, g.; Hearts. j.
9, 6, 5, 8; Diamonds, 9, 5, 8; Clubs,
K, j, 9. His strength in Clubs, in
the absence of side tricks, did not
justify a raise of his partners Club
bid.
Whitehead passed. So did Led
ernan, as he had no rebid strength
in the face of his partners failure
to assist.
Whitehead therefore became the
Declarer, with a contract of two
Spades.
Lederman was confronted with an
extremely difficult problem in the
selection Of a blind opening lead.
Should he open the Diamond suit,
he must lead the Ace lest he lose
it; and an Ace, if possible, should
be reserved for the capture of an
honor instead of the low cards that
would fall upon it If led. Moreover,
an Ace lead often sets up the suit
for the Declarer.
4 y
A HEART lead from his singly
IA guarded King was out Of the
question, as it would have been al
most the sure SIS of a trick. Leder-
man also Jobjecs,d to opening his
Club suit, as he held in 1t the Major
tenace-Ace-Quee 10.
