Praises Mrs. Culbertson.
This hand Immediately followed the
bidding and making of small slam In
clubs by Mr.. Jacoby. He opened the
bidding with two hearts which I passed
Mr.. Lenz, in the north bid three clubs
and my partner made the beautiful de-
fensive bid of three diamonds. Mr..
Jacoby bid five clubs and I bid five
diamonds. Mr.. Lenz then called six
clubs, my partner six diamonds, which
Mr. Jacoby doubled. l passed. being
perfectly satisfied with the sacrifice,
but Mr. LenZ thereupon bid six hearts,
evidently feeling that the penalty to be
expected would not compensate for the
loss of the slam, I opened diamond,
which Mr.. Jacoby took with his ace.
My partners discard was the eight of
spades upon our opponents first trump
lead, and when I took by inevitable
trump trick, l led a spade which set
the contract one.
Mrs. Culbertson's bidding this hand
is beautiful demonstration of the rea-
son why she is my favorite partner.
She saved our side 750 points, the
bonus which our opponents would have
scored for vulnerable small slam, plus
the 100 points for a set of one trick.
The bidding on the above hand under
the approach-forcing system would
have arrived at an eventual six no
trump contract. I should have pre-
ferred the following bidding:
South. west. NOrtn, East,
heart Pass clubs J diamonds
4 no trump Pass hearts Pass
clubs s diamonds Pass Pass
6 no trump Pass Pass Pass
- South is just short of strength for a
forcing two bid. North, in view of his
strength in hearts, should make fore
ing three club bid, and over East's three
diamond bid South should show his ad-
ditional honor strength together with
his shoppers in the adverse diamond
suit, by four no trump declaration.
When North shows his support in
hearts, South should bid. the slam in
clubs. Over Vests sacrifice bid of six
diamonds North, having no new values
to show, should pass, leaving the deci-
sion to South as to whether to double
for penalties or continue the bidding to
a slam in hearts or no trump. North,
knowing that grand slam is improb-
able, passes his partners bid Of six no
trump.

PURE ANARCHY
BRAND TAGGED
ON U. S. TARIFF
Blast Fired at Act by Car
negie Foundation After
Survey.
By -H0,0ard Netospoper AlIiance

By Scripps-Howord Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. April 8. - "A
handful of men sitting aroUnd a
table in Washington. in an autmos-
phere heavy with ignorance and
cigar smoke, crippled the chief in
dustry of country 5000 miles
away"
Such is the characterization of
the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill in the
new world economic survey of the
Carnegie Foundation for interna-
tional peace, just of the presses.
Citing the limited" tariff revi-
sion of the United States last year
as a primary factor in the exist
ing worldwide depression, the book
denounceS the methods by which
the new rates were achieved as "a
throwback to the age of savage
conquest
James T. Shotwell, general edi-
tor OF the Carnegie Foundations
history of the World war, is general
editor of the economic series. The
volume contains foreWord by
Nicholas Murray Butler, president
of the foundation, and president of
Columbia university.
The analysis shows that the
Hawley- Smoot bill increased United
States import duties on 800 COM
modities.
Following the passage of the act,
there came from every corner of
the world volume of angry protest
and retaliation which has not di-
nlir1ished to this day. The act was
blow struck by one nation at the
economic stability of sixty nations.
It was a blind, desperate effort of
a great country to hang on to the
top OF the ladder by kicking at
every other country"
The history OF the Swiss watch
making industry is cited as typical
example of how the American tariff
wall contributed directly to the
breakdown of business.
1.-THE Swiss republic is, to a large
extent, a nation of watchmakers.
She has no natural resources. She
imports all her raw materials.
"She has been shipping to the
United States approximately Sill
100000 worth of watches every year.
Our new tariff closed the doors of
many of her factories.
"Tllis is not world order. It is
world anarchy

FULLER DOOMED
FOR FIGHT JOB
Leslie to Be Approached;
Two Tentatively Picked.

Governor Harry G.. Leslie is to be
faced directly with the proposal to
give one of the three boxing COM
mission positions to Bert Fuller, who
managed the successful Leslie cam
paign for Governor, it was learned
today.
About sixty applications are on
file now for the position Of COM
missioner, With but three commits
sion positions to be filed.
Fuller's appointment is to be
sought by mutual friend of both
the Governor and Fuller.
Fuller at one time was a prize
fighter and sparring partner of the
heavyweight champion Jim Jeffries.
He was also an early-day dirt track
automobile race driver.
Leslie already has made over
lures to at least two persons for
commission positions, it was re-
ported at the statehouse today.
They are Lee Persise, Salem banker,
and Andrew Weisberg, South Bend
hotel man and hacker of the boxing
bill.
Others who have been reported
as being sought by the Governor
include Norman A. Perry and the
boxing professor at Culver Military
Academy.
In addition to the numerous per-
sons seeking positions as commits
sionners, there are at least fifteen
applicants for the $4,000 secretary
ship and the position of attorney,
which also pays $4,000 for part
time.
Louis f. Markum, former Indi-
annapolis member of the house of
representatives, is. seeking the Sec
rotary position, after having been
disappointed by Leslie previously in
an appointment with the depart
nent of conservation. Today it
was learned that he will not get
this job either.

CRAWFORD MAKES
HIS BOW AT INDIANA.

A new master of ceremonies at
the Indiana always demands atten-
ton because that theater is known
as the home Of the master of cere-
monies.
Jack Crawford, the new repre-
sentative of that tribe of enter
tanners, belonging to that division
known as clowns with ability"
am beginning to believe that the
fat or even f1eshy man makes the
best sort of a master, especially
when they have brains.
Crawford does not try to sell that
''it'' attribute because he is too fat.
In other words he is no sheik. But
he is an entertainer and knows how
to do certain things.
His singing with two other boys is
real harmony and makes his intro
duction an easy one. Crawford has
a good and a clever dancing show
around him.
The Punch and Judy part of the
stage show has the services of a
real entertainer This sort of fun is
as old as the hills, but the man be-
hind the Titles curtain is an artist.
The background for the dance
numbers, the ones from which the
girls step from a large bouquet, is
beautiful. The dancers as we'll as
the set reflected class.
The movie is ''The Man of the
World and the only good thing
about it is the polished work of Will
liam Powell as male blackmailer.
Not a pleasant story. miles from it.
Often l became peeved because
the director or someone allowed the
scenes to change on a second notice.
This is just carelessness.
And several of the voices recorded
spotty. AS said the only redeem
ing factor is the polished work of
William Powell in an unpleasant
role.
Now at the Indiana.
