POLICE ALERT AS PARADES
OPEN TONG MEETINGS

Arouses Fears as Rival Factions
Gather for National Conventions.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 27.-The Hip
Sing and On Leong Tongs opened their
national conventions today with dragon
parades and revelrieS through the Ian
tern-strung streets of Chinatown.
Although the affair promised to be
orderly, police watched for possible
outbreak of tong warfare, because Of
the failure OF the two tongs to form
formation OF the association, which
would have jurisdiction over tong dis
putes in the Eastern United States,
failed largely because members refused
to sign the clause wherein white po-
lice" would be called II disputantS re-
fused to abide by the peace associa-
tons arbitratorS.

his partner bid. The declarer is confronted with an interesting sit- uation. He can win this trick and be in his own hand, but his prob lem is how to stay there to run the diamonds. He should win the first trick with the ace of clubs. His diamond suit looks pretty well set up, therefore the ace and king of diamonds in dummy are useless to him and on the ace of clubs he should discard the ace of diamonds. His next play should be the king of clubs, and on this he should dis card the king of diamonds from dummy, thereby unblocking the diamond suit.
 It is now very easy to run off six straight diamond tricks, dis carding from dummy three small spades and three small hearts. West would follow with two diamonds and two small clubs, a heart, and if he had nerve would bear down on his king of spades. The declarer wo.< then lead a heart or a spade from his hand, but should not take either finesse. as he wants to make sure of making four no trump.
 While this hand shows in an ex- aggerated manner the unblocking play, similar situations, perhaps a little more difficult to recognize. will come at the bridge table and you should be very careful not to block off hand that has winning cards.

A grocer once showed me 9 taranaula which had reached him in such a manner The spider was alive and was being kept in a paper bag. s Tarantulas are dangerous--when they bite. they send poison into the victim, sometimes causing death Among the wasps of Texas are those called < 'tarantula- killers They are not afraid of the big spiders.
 Here Is an account of a typical battle between such a wasp and a tarantula:
 "The wasp saw tarantula, and began flying in circles around the enemy. The spider reared up, ready to bite the wasp when it came near enough. Suddenly the wasp darted in and stung the spider, avoiding being bitten. Again the wasp flew in circles; again it darted in to give a sting. "The spider was trembling, but was still able to fight. A third sting sent 1t down, unable to resist The wasp managed to drag it to a hole in the ground"
 The wasps are not always victors. One case is on record where the fight ended with the wasp dead and

 Boston.-Division of the United States into family" groups of states |such as New England as means of organized promotion of sectional development along economic lines appears a probability of the not dis ltant future.
 The first step in this direction was
 taken in 1925 when the New Eng land council was created as perma- Inent organization to promote indus ttrial, agricultural and commercial growth to stimulate more effective economic service, and to promote a healthy regional consciousness among the people of the six states. Recent and current develop tion point to the grouping of other states, under economic cove nants, after the fashion of the
 Praise from President
 Concerning the New England |council, President Hoover has said: "Your steadfast application |of research methods to the eco- homie needs of New England, your encouragement of more business like agriculture and more effective industry, and your patriotic efforts ito help stabilize employment deserve hearty commendation.'
 And the idea of other states with kindred interests banding to- |gether after the New England pattern has the endorsement of |the U. $. department of com lmerce.
 Seven states in the southeastern section of the country have taken lsteps toward forming the South |eastern council, an organization with
