the fourchette.
The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES rule is
especially important when q Queen IS
led and the next player has KING
Jack; thus in this hand ninety-nine
Declarers out Of every hundred would
have played the King from Dummy as
a matter of course, failing to appre-
ciate that with the 3 failing to ap-
precirte that with the 2 falling or
the trick from the East hand. North
would not continue the suit up 20 the
exposed Jacks.
OF course the play of the King
would make the Jack OF Hearts a
winner. but il would mean a shifting
from that suit. Dcclarer could be
sure that il a shift took place il
would be to Clubs; and If South held
the Ace of Clubs, the shift must cost
game. Consequently the hand Illus
trates q case in which IL Is advisable

usual situation up to North. North

Carol REFUSES
TO FIGHT MANU-
Rumania Liberals Plan
Coup d'etat

PARIS, France, April 3.-At-
tempts of members of the Rumanian
liberal party to bring back Prince
Carol from exile and, under his
leadership, overthrow the Manu-
regime, have been disclosed here to-
day
The liberal emissaries urged the
former crown prince to return and
lead a coup d'etat against the
Manu- regime. Carol was promised
a military dictatorship with the
solid backing of the liberals.
For political reasons Carol re-
fused to accept, it is reported.
Manu- government of the national
peasants party, representing rich
peasant, merchant and professional
elements, came to power after the
fall of the government of Vintila
Bratianu, the liberal leader.
The change in governments has
made no difference, however, to the
workers and poor peasants of Ru-
mania, scores of whom are lying in
fortress prisons without any legal
form of detention, but merely on
suspicion of revolutionary activity.
