-How is the beginner to know
II when not to bid no trump
initiallyP 1t is conceded the hand
must contain some high cards.
How many7
If the cards were evenly dealt,
every player should hold one Ace,
one King, one Queen and one Jack.
A hand containing an additional
Jack or other high card would be
above the average, and, from these
facts the rule is deducted that you
may bid a no trump If the hand
contains three suits stopped and is
worth a Jack above the average.
A. typical hand holding Jack
above the average and sound in
itial no trump is as follows:
Spades x x x
Hearts A x x
Diamonds @ j x K
CluDS Il X
All that is said here is based on
careful calculations. However, as
guide for beginners, it may not
be definite, and may leave them
in quandary.
Until you have developed the fac
ulty Of judging a no trump imme-
diately upon inspection of the cards,
it is simpler and safer to rely on
the point system, which is applied
as follows:
Count the Ace for seven points.
Count the King for four points.
Count the Queen for three points.
If the hand contains 81 points,
distributed in three or more suits,
you may bid no trumps. Illustra-
tion.

thus smoothly, there was small
cloud on the wedding horizon in
the form of report that court
Injunction had been asked to
restrain Shankarcharva from per-
forming the conversion ceremony,
pending decision of suit to that
effect which already has been filed.
OGtwardIy, however, there was no
indication of uneasineSs in the en-
tourage of the wedding pair.
The magistrate, to whom the
application was made, said he
did not desire to interfere with
the conversion ceremonies. He did,
however, order Shankarsharva not
to style himself "Jadadjuru Shan
karcharva of Kervipith" in exer-
cising any ecclesiastic right. This
title is supposed to carry with it
the authority to convert outsiders
to Hinduism. The wedding mana

MUSCLE SHOALS
AMENDED
BY U. 5. SENATE
Norris Resolution for Gov
ernment Operation Sub
jected to Changes

WASHINGTON, March IL (H9-With
the senate partially afloat again after
its long hang up on the verbal mud
flats of Muscle Shoals, and the house,
despite terrific outbreak of static,
getting action on the bill granting the
radio commission another years lease
on official life, congress engaged IN
vigorous furry of legislative function
ing today to open the new week.
Proceeding under its own power, the
senate made several amendments TO
the Norris resolution for government
operation of the Muscle Shoals plant.
1t wasn't able to get entirely clear OF
the delay, however, and will reopen
tomorrow the effort to make up its
mind to O. form of legislation it can
approve and transmit to the house.
Senator Norris decided it would need a
new print of the bill, embodying the
amendments, if anybody was to under
stand just what its all about, and 1t
was so ordered.
The house agreed to defer execution
of the radio commission for IL months
but settled it's act on clemency With
~ condition that makes it. doubtful
that the commission can survive be-
yond wednesday, when it expires by
law failing new legislation in the
meantime The fight was waged over
the drive of southern members par
ticularly, with well solidified demo-
cratic backing, to bring about re-
distribution of radio station power and
wave length permits to broadcaStlng
stations on basis of population,
It had to override a ruling that the
amendment was out of order and then
grind through roll call vote 236 to
1873, to send the bill back to the senate
in that form. Unless a conference
committee can REACH agreement be-
tween the two houses and get it ap-
proved, and the president signs the
resulting act before sometime on We'd
nesday, the troubles of the radio COM
mission will be at an end anyhow. 1t
will have perished, and Secretary
Hoover will take over its job.

houses, tn. Teapot Dome Oil commit

Treasury Secretary
Accepts Committee
Call Ii, Bond Probe

the physical aspects of his refusal
to accept the Sinclair bonds sent to
him by Hays as security for his own
contribution of $4,000 toward ex-
tinguishing the party deficit.
What the committee desires now
to know is details Of the conversation
which Mellon had with Hays and
after which the treasury secretary
declined to make use OF the bonds
as Hays mad suggested.
Chairman Nye said the investigators
would insist upon knowing Melons
reason for that rejection and whether
Hays had in any way indicated that
these particular bonds figured in the
Teapot Dome oil lease to Sinclair
Hays has testified that when nc
solicited the huge contribution from
Sinclair he had no knowledge as to
the ContinenuaI Trading company,
some of the bonds of which Sinclair
had delivered to Albert B. Fall, in
terror secretary at the time Teapos
Dome was leased.
Besides the half million dollars
worth of Continental bonds which
Sinclair is now known to have
handled the committee has traced
100000 to Harry M. Blackmer and
100000 to James &. O'Neil, wealthy
American oil men. who are self
exiled from the United States and
under court and committee subpoena
in connection with the oil cases.
At the moment, however, the COM
mittee is pursuing that aspect of the
trail of the Continental bonds which
ramifies in and out of the republican
national committee deficit settlement
in 1923 in advance OF the presidential
campaign OF 1924.
Secretary Mellon will be the first
witness at the re-opening of the
hearing tomorrow. He probably will
be followed by Hays. who was chair
man of the republican committee
