Building Industry is Chief
Consumer of Finished Steel

Washington, D. c. (ILNS)-The
construction industry took first rank
in 1881 among the consumers of fin
ished steel, repeating its perform
ance of 2930. The second largest con-
sumner was the railroad industry,
while the automotive industry ranked
third. The standing of these three
consumers has remained unchanged
for two years In 1929, however, the
railroads took first place with the
automotive industry second and con-
struction third.

100000 Unemployed
Turning to the volume of unem-
ployment, Mr.. McGrady said the
American Federation of Labor esti-
mates that there are at least 100000
unemployed, with 6,00O,0000 more
working from one to three days a
week.
"This is conservative estimate
and represents the minimum unem-
ployment," he said. at compares
with an average of 100000 out Of
work in 1929, or an increase since
then of over 100000 Of this num-
Der there is large percentage who
have been out of work for very
long period, and whose resources are
entirely exhausted.
Plight of the Miners
81 want to particularly call your
attention to the conditions of the min
ers of Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee,
Ohio, Kentucky and Pennsylvania.
More than 100000 of them have had
no work for year or more. In five
anthracite counties in Pennsylvania
we informed the officials that $5,000,-
900 would be needed to feed and
clothe the people. In all the mining
sections of Pennsylvania they need
not less than 100000 to carry
them through the winter"
Twenty Billion Wage Loss
Mr.. McGrady declared that Amer
lean Federation of Labor statistics
show that wage earners' income in
1881 was $11 100000 below their
income for 1929, and that their loss
in earnings during 1880 and 1882
compared with 1929 totals from
eighteen to twenty billion dollars.
Wages Below Decent Standard
He said the average wages paid
today are hardly more than half
enough to support family in health
and decency, consequently the work
ers who have held their jobs cannot
give much more help to the unem-
ployed."
"If employers are not going to pay
their workers decent wages he
warned, "then we insist that a large
share of their profits should be taken
away from them by taxation and
given to impoverished workers
through relief agencies"
"a survey by the United States
Children's Bureau" he went on,
"shows that relief payments in the
first half of 1881 in 88 cities were
greater than relief paid by 100 cities
for the full year in 1880, and nearly
four times the amount spent for fam.

Rigid Selection Matter OF

1t Is possible to select and breed
Leghorns to increase body weight,

these increases to bring about any
of the others, says the Cornell uni

While it is said to be q normal
tendency for the weight of the egg
and the weight of the hen to de-
crease with an increase in the num-
ber of eggs, rigid selection. the sta
tion says, will overcome this tend
ency. Not only that, but the tend
ency was also to lengthen the egg
laying period and to put off the
time when egg-laying diminishes
through the maturity of the birds.
The studies made a careful com
parison between birds of high-lay-
ing capacity and those of low ca
pacity. The high producers ate.
more than the low producers but,
nevertheless, it took about twice as.
much feed to get a dozen eggs from
the low producers. When costs and
incomes are balanced, the evidence
is all in favor of the pullets from
a long line of ancestors selected
for egg production. "When the an

per cent of the cost of producing
eggs, is deducted from the gross in

Rebidding After a Take-Out
With No Opposition

With no opposition bidding the re-
appraisal of your hand after a take
out from your partner is a more
simple matter and the decision as
to your response usually clear cut.
If he has taken you out of ma jor,
bidding just high enough in another
suit to cover your declaration, his
take-out may be read as a definite
denial of trump support. In such a
case your suit should not be rebid
unless it promises at least trump
tricks.
If you have opened with a minor
suit, which your partner has over
called with another suit or no
trump, he may have help for your
minor suit, but is, correctly, seek
ing to improve the situation. Your
best chance here, if you have addi-
tional strength, Is to cooperate
with his effort to find a shorter
route to the desired game-goal. AL
ways remember that the road to
game via a minor suit is long and
hard.
After you have opened a suit bid,
II your partner takes out with one
no trump, he tells you that he has
less than 21z honor-tricks. So, un-
less your own quota is very high,
or you are blessed with a good two
suffer, you may as well abandon
hope for game. Next to a pass, the
one no trump take-out Of your suit
bid Is the most discouraging re-
sponse you can receive from your
partner.
Whenever you have bid and your
partner has taken you out with any
thing less than a forcing bid, the
primary question. to decide is
whether or not your hand contains
any strength additional to that al
ready shown. If your initial bid
was made on the minimum re-
quired strength, and you have no
added distributional support for
your partners bid, your cue there
after is silence, and a lot of it.
After a partners suit take-out,
however, it frequently happens that
with no additional honor-strength,
your hand may justify a rebid be-
cause of distributional tricks in
support of your partners suit.

Crossing breeds or varieties of
poultry is not recommended. The
birds from the first cross may have
the good qualities of both parents
but further crossing will result in
"a degenerated mongrel flock.
Heavy breeds of poultry, such as
Rhode Island Reds, Plymouth
Rocks, and Wyandottes, have been
more profitable for the last three
years than have the lighter breeds
of chickens, according to the cost
records of some 200 Ohio farmers.
Fully matured pullets should
have good width between the legs
to allow the heart, lungs and egg
organs to work satisfactorily. In
fact, width of back and width be-
tween the legs are two essential
points to be considered in a good
layer.

Modern Contract

No. 13.
Rebidding After a Take-Out
Against Opposition

Against Opposition
a T CONTRACT, a keen ability
n IN appraising a hand according
to differences and deductions is alb
solutely essential if one hopes to
win games and slams and escape
the payment of severe penalties.
In opening the first bid of a
deal you are Of course in the dark
about all but your own individual
holding. Starting without a clew
to the location of the outstanding
strength, you can only surmise that
it is divided and that the play Of
the hand will produce an average
break of luck. For instance, in
making an original trump bid 1t
may be assumed that the outstand-
ing trumps are evenly distributed
and so can be drawn in three
rounds of play. On this basis it Is
reasonable to expect that a four
card trump suit will furnish one
end trick, a five card suit two end
tricks, etc. Again, holding two
cards which stand about a fifty
fifty chance of taking a trick, it can
reasonably be expected that one
will win and the other will lose.
Thus If you were opening a one
spade bid with the following hand ::
S-AQG42 H-K SIG DIX 1913 &C
your trump suit would be valued
for 315 tricks, your heart king and
end card for l, and your diamond
king for II, a total value for the
hand Of 5 playing tricks. The
singleton at this time would have
no significance.
So much for the original declara-
tion. The important point Is that
subsequent bidding may reveal the
necessity for a complete shift in
the appraisal Of your hand. For in
stance, with a raise from your
partner and a diamond bid by the
opponent ON your right. your expec-
tation In trumps is strengthened
and your king of diamonds may be
counted as sure trick, justifying
two sound rebids In spades.
Should your partner, however,
take you out with two hearts and
the same opponent overcall with
three diamonds, your hand would
have to be entirely revalued. Now
your spades revalued as a side suit
lose one length trick. But your
king of hearts becomes one full sup
porting trick, with the length the
same II. The king of diamonds
over the opposing diamond bid can
be counted for a full trick. But the
most significant shift in valuation
occurs In the singleton club which
from no value whatever is raised to
2 full supporting tricks. Thus In
reappraising this hand you gain suf-
fcient additional supporting tricks
to justify a jump raise Of your
partners bid to four hearts.
But suppose that after you have
opened the above hand with a bid
of one spade, the opponent on your
left should overcall with a no
trump. The original valuation of
your hand is greatly deprecated,
with both the queen Of spades and
the king of diamonds diveStad Of
their trick taking probabilities. So
that your hand would no longer
justify jump to game even though.
