demanded his partner to keep 1t
open. Now If West has a broken
spade distribution, it may stop him
from opening it. North responds to
the two spades with three hearts
showing that he has nothing but his
five-card minimum heart bid. South
then goes to six diamonds which all
pass. Some players might want to
double with Vests holding but it Is
too dangerous.
The Play
II South had not bid spades, West
in the majority of cases would open
with the jack of spades-the top OF
the two touching honors. But now
that South has forced with spades,
he is afraid that he may be leading
into the ace, queen, therefore 1t
looks as though the proper lead would
be the queen of clubs which was
opened In this case and it Is now
rather simple for the declarer to
make six odd. He wins the first club
trick in his own hand with the ace
and then lays down the ace and
queen of diamonds granting West the
king of diamonds. Now regardless OF
what West leads the declarer is bound
to win, pick up the trump. discard his
two losing spades-one on the queen
II hearts and the other on the king
Of clubs.
While this psychic bid has assisted
declarer in making small slam al
low the writer to again warn you that
there are very few times that a psy-
chic bid will pay. Do not become toe
enthusiastic with psychic bidding. It
Is too dangerous.

Many Scientists Believe That

SPLIT BY EARTH's ROTATION

Washington, April 9.-(R-<lraduai
drift" of North and South America
westward may be the underlying
cause of the earthquake that destroy
ed Managua, Nicaragua.
Father F., W.. Sohon, ologist
at Georgetown university, explains
that many scientists believe the
Rocky and Andes mountains were
folded upward by resistance to the
Pacific ocean mass to the westward
drift" of the continents.
These mountain ranges and the
mountain chain that connects them
across Central America still are IN
process of being uplifted. according
to this theory. Earthquakes usually
accompany this uplifting process.
All One Continent
The so called "Wegener theory
holds that all the continents once
we're part Of one great continent. per-
haps near the south pole. The force
of the earth's rotation. according 70
this theory. split this single centinent
into several smaller ones. which grad
ually moved away to their present
positions and still are moving.
AS North, South and Central Amer :
lea drifted westward. they met resist
ance from the great mass OF the Pa
cific ocean. The crust OF the CONT
nents was folded up into mountains
against this resistance it is believed.
The rock mass Of the continents
offsets the rock mass under the ad-
iacent ocean, so the two are IN bal
rance. The pressure upon the heavy
basalt rocks believed to underlie
oceans and continents Is the same,
because the weight of the rock masses
above is the same.
Mountains Worn Down
Wind and weathering wears down
the mountain tops, however, and this
disturbs the balance. Pressure OF N",
basalt rocks beneath the ocean Is
greater than the pressure beneath
the land. Some of the rock under
the ocean is forced to flow over be-
meath the land, where pressure Is less.
This forces the lighter rocks OF the
mountain ranges upward and restores
the balance, says Father Sohon.
Sometimes there is friction in the
upward movement of the mountains.
strains accumulate, then suddenly are
released. The resulting shock is an
earthquake.
The earth's crust in some places Is
divided into great blocks. TIE lines
of division between the blocks ar:
known as faults" One or more OF
these blocks may be pushed Up separ-
ately by the forces below.
Water pipes. railroad tracks or
paved roads that cross such a fault
line may be broken when one block Is
lifted higher than the other. In gen.
eral earthquakes are more likely to
occur near fault lines.

North and South Dakota will see
May Day demonstrations. A preli-

at Frederick, S. D, with delegates

air--if raining at the Court House;
third, at New Home Township Hall,
May 3, at l pm; and the fourth,
at Belden, Community Hall, May 3,
at 8 pm.
The farmers here are hopelessly
going about the task of seeding-in

year will be worse than ever for
them. I'VE must keep on planting

SyndiCaIiSt Trial
in Portland Apr. z
(By a Worker COrrespondent,)


PORTLAND, Ore, April 21.-The
"triap of John Moore, 81, Portland
International Labor Defense secre-
tary and third to be tried of thirteen
workers charged with the crime" of
criminal syndicalism, is set for April
%.
Moore was one of those originally
arrested in September of last year,
when over a score of workers were
arrested in preparation for visit Of
the Fish Committee in this city.
Thirteen have been indicted for GRIM
inal syndicalism and twelve are held
on deportation charges.
Ben Boloff, first tried, was SEN
fenced to ten years in the peniten-
tiary. His case will be appealed by
the International Labor Defense.
Fred Walker, Young Communist
League member and secretary of the
Unemployed Council, was acquitted
Of the same charge a few weeks ago.
Eight of the foreign-born workers
have been ordered deported and their
appeal for writ of habeas corpus
will be heard by the federal circuit
court of appeals in San Francisco,
May II.
Comrade Moore has been active on
the coast as an organizer of the ma
rine workers and the bosses will use
every means that they have to rail-
road this worker to prison. The
workers throughout the country must
see that their organizations send
protests to President Hoover and the
secretary Of labor on the deportation
cases; to Governor Meier, Salem,
Ore, and District Attorney Langley,
Portland, on the criminal syndicalism
cases.
