Speedy Justice

If the promptness with which
George Hassel was tried, convicted
and sentenced to death were more
common we would have fewer such
crimes committed.
1t is a matter of weeks since the
atrocious murder of wife and eight
children were discovered.
Though he probably gave 1t no de-
liberate thought, the laws delay
made him less afraid.
1t makes all criminals less afraid,
inspires them with hope OF escape
and holsters up the belief that even
if caught, they can avoid punish
ment.

Horse Racing

Though automobiles are supposed

A FEW WORDS
CONCERNING LAUDER

Am speaking for myself-Harry
Lauder is one of the dearest and
sweetest personalities of the stage
He is an institution of the heart to
millions of men and women the
world over.
Yesterday before two nearly ca
pacity houses at the Murat, this CO.
median of song sang at his fourth
farewell tour" and promised to make
some more farewell tours.
I need not talk Of his ability to
create character in song. 1 need
not tell you with what consumate
ease he reaches the heart with such
a song as 1.-The End Of the Road"
And I do not need to tell you how
he reaches the heart with his love
songs such as "Soosie Mclean"
"Roamin' in tn Gloamin' and
others.
And for strict Characterization
you see his artistry reflected in his
souse number, when Meet Mack
aye and Mackaye Meets Me-" and
his 'Iate wife" song, 1.-The Boss O.
the Hoose."
Below and under all Of his charac-
terizations is the spirit of real art
istry as we'll as his reflection on
lies journey. His characters in song
actually live.
Lauder was on the stage for more
than an hour last night. He found
time to tell several corking Scotch
stories. And he can tell them.
And when Harry Lauder himself
reaches the end of the road, millions
and millions of people will think back
and keep thinking Of this jolly heart
of song. (By Walter d. Hickman)

Doctrine of the I1old-Up
Rudimentary in No
Trump.
BY Milton G. Work

AAAC ICAiAbNl LII lOCety
With but one winning card Of che
suit originally led at No Trump, De-
ciarer usually should hold that card
until the third round if possible.
The doctrine of the hold-up at No
Trump is one of the most rudiman-
tary and yet important Of the many
that the Declarer must understand
in order successfully to manage the
twenty-six cards he is called upon
to play.
The adversary who has the lead
will open his longest suit in the
hope Of establishing it and winning
enough tricks to save game; the
object Of Declarer's hold-up Is to
block the suit after It is established
and kill what would otherwise be
one or more adverse winners. The
opportunity to do this blocking
arises when the partner of the origi-
nal leader has no more Of the suit,
and the original leader can be kept
from winning a trick and getting
in the lead to cash his winners; De.
clarer often can bring about this
condition by holding up his winning
card Of the adverse suit until the
third round of 1t.
OF course the hold-up should be
made only when 1t does not endan-
ger the winning of that one trick
in the adverse suit. With Ace-x-x
either in Dummy or Closed Hand
Declarer may be sure of winning
either Of the first three tricks; with
King-x-x in Closed Hand when the
Ace is played by the Third Hand
and the suit returned, Declarer NAV
be sure Of either the second or third
trick at his option. But when the
holding is King-X-X, Dummy having
no support in the suit, and the Third
| Hand does not play the Ace, the first
trick obviously has to be taken with
the King, or the King surely would
be lost; so the advice In today's
pointer applies generally to the
Ace-x-x holdings. The following No

West would lead the Five Of Clubs
and East would play the Queen. IT
will be noticed that should Declarer
fail to plan and should he take the
first or second Club trick, East
when he won with the Ace Of Dia-
monds-would be able to return his
partners suit, which would save
game; but If the Declarer hold UP
his Ace Of Clubs until the third
round, East would not have a Club
to lead, and Declarer would make
game.
How should Declarer plan the fol-
lowing No Trump hand after look

Surfman on Leave, Apparent

Lake and Jailed.

GAINESVILLE, Ohio. June s.
John A. Sadiowski. surfman in the
Coast Guard service, who terroriZed
the Lake Harbor at Fairport yester-
day by firing several hundred shots
unfortunately from a rum chaser
lying at anchor. was held a prisoner
for Government authorities in Lake
County Jail today.
Fishermen went busily about their
tasks in the harbor yesterday Many
women and children were out walk
ing in the warm afternoon sun. Sud
denly Sadiowski climbed aboard the
rum chaser and procured three guns
from a locker. He began firing at the
pier. Almost before the echo of the
shots died away the crowd of 200
persons was under cover. No one
was injured.
Sadiowski continued firing until he
had exhausted 100 rounds of ammu-
milton on the nearby Coast Guard
station and on the harbor tug, Ohio,
which was moored nearer the rum
chaser.
He had turned to the machine gun
aboard the Government craft and was
getting ready to train it on the pier
when Sheriff Ed. Rasmussen and two
deputies overpowered him. Sadiow-
ski shot at the officers when they
appeared, but none of the shots took
effect.
Sadiowski apparently was under
the influence of liquor. the county au-
thorities said.
He had been on leave for one day
and had Just returned to Fairport.
The sheriff placed no charges
against him pending notice from

AIR DEPARTMENT
URGED BY LEGION
Committee Backs Mitchell in

The American Legion's committee
on national defense will recommend
to the Paris convention of the Legion
a national policy favoring creation of
a separate department of aviation
headed by cabinet officer. Decision
to this effect was reached by the COM
mittee late yesterday after hearings
which lasted two days.
The decision is in line with the
policy Col. William Mitchell has
fought for, and was adopted by unani.

fered. The decision of the commit
tee is expected to result in the
Legion's taking a definite stand after
two conventions had been no-cQ nit.
tai on the subject.
Witnesses before the committee
Yesterday generally opposed the uni
fication of defense into one depart
ment and expressed satisfaction with
the present progress of aviation. AS
sistant Secretary of War Hanford
MacNider told the committee that
there was no need to build up a
greater air force until the manufac-
ture of munitions had been increased.
AT present the country has only
enough ammunition to last through
three months of a war, he declared.
The quick agreement of the COM
mittee was unexpected. 1t had been
expected that the problem would be
debated for several days. and plans
had been made for night hearings to
conclude the sessions this week.
