NEW YORK-A Committee OF

speech opened his talk bg agreeing
with PROVIDERS analysis of the situa-
ton in this crisis.
Brazenly Altman denied that Tho
mas had cooperated with Morgan in
the block-aid campaign. His attempts
to convince the audience that the
Socialist Party was more revolu-
tionary than the Communist Party
and that the Communist Party was a
reformist Party drew derisive laughter
from the audience of workers.
Altman said that the Communist
Party in supporting the veterans de-
handing the bonus were strength
ening the fascist movement in the
United States Praising the Socialists
who in 1917 were Conscientious objec-
.orS, he said that the men who are
now veterans helped keep the con-
scientious DIRECTORS in jail. He de-
nounced the 100000 veterans as
iascists, whose demand for their back
wages endangered the chances to win
unemployment insurance.
ITO Hell With Veterans"
"The Socialist Party stands for no
bonus to the veterans; they are all
fascists," Altman declared, 40 hell
with them"
Answering the demagogic phrases
Of Altman, B1owder exposed the re-
dictionary and treacherous character
Of the Socialist Parry and It's war
record. In reply to Altmans charge
that the Communist Party had no
program, ErowCe- contrasGed the be-
trayal of the German workers by the
Socialist Farty beginning with 1918
end eliminating in the Socialist
ralty election OF hindenburg, with
/ The victory OF the Communists in the
Soviet Union and the successful
| building socialism. He also pointed
out thai while the Communists Party
leads the workers in the United
States in their daily struggles, the
| Socialist mayor in Milwaukee APP
proves the clubbing of unemployed
workers. He cited the arrest and i'm
prisonment for one year of Sam
45asseGt who on March 6, 1880 led a
demonstration of unemployed in the
Socialist" city of Milwaukee.
"A Dig vote for the Communist
Party said Browder in conclusion, 9
will be threat to the capitalist class
which, backed by mass organization
and actions, will force it to give more
unemployment relief. Failure to OBJ
tain big vote for Communist can
didates will make the capitalist class
feel secure because it will feel that
the workers are not organized in a
revolutionary mass movement for
fighting exploitation
Socialist Can't Answer
Finding that his arguments failed
to convince the workers and that the
sentence had been deeply stirred by
what Browder had said, Altman in
his rebuttal ignored all questions
asked Of him, including a question
from member in the audience as to
why the Socialists in Germany helped
elect Hindenburg and started a
speech Of mud Singing at the Com
munist Party and some Of it's out
standing leaders.
Many in the audience who had up
to now listened to the speakers in
fine order showed their disgust of
Altman's tactics by leaving the hall.
The meeting ended with loud
cheers for Browder and the Com
munist Party.

Although all parties were invited to
send speakers to this symposium,
Earl Browder was the only one to
appear at the scheduled hour. The
Socialist speaker came late in the
evening, while the Republican and
Democratic parties completely ignored
the invitation.
.r Fights Wage Cuts
Brpwder analysed the condition in
the. building trades, particularly the
conditions in the carpenters trade.
In contrasting the political programs
of the other parties with that of the
Communist Party, he showed that
only. the Communist Party recognized
the Importance Of the growing strug-
giles of the employed and unemployed
wc2kers. Only mass demonstrations
by workers and mass pressure exerted
under the leadership of the Commu-
mist Party forced the authorities Of
New York City to give additional re-
1ef. to unemployed workers, BroWder
pointed out. He cited the unemploy-
ed demonstrations in the past three
years as examples, which caused the
giving, and later increasing Of relief.
Norman Thomas, Browder pointed
out, was designated by the Tammany
tool, James Walker, in 1881 to serve
on an advisory committee to prepare
the budget for New York City. The
Socialist press then announced that
Thomas would persuade the city to
provide an adequate relief program il

heart.
This is a weak bid, but the most
advanced players are now opening
hands of very moderate strength in
third position to protect a partner
who may have passed considerable
strength.
East doubled, South passed. and
West responded with one spade. OF
course North would have suffered a
heavy penalty had the double been
passed. but he was not vulnerable and
the ultimate result was much more
profitable for East and West.
East bid two clubs. but West now
responded with four clubs. This is a
highly constructive bid from which
| East could draw wealth Of infer
ences.
1t showed at least four clubs in the
strength. West apparently had sui
! ficient strength to have bid two
, spades over the double and his reason
for not doing so must have been a
spade suit of only four cards.
The strength shown by the jump
! in clubs could only consist of the
ace and king of spades or the ace
! and a queen of spades plus the king
| of diamonds.
Furthermore. West must be short
in hearts because nearly all of the
hearts are accounted for by previous
! bidding and EaSt's own holding.
Having thus formed complete pic
! ture of partners hand. East was fully
/ justified in bidding six clubs, which
became the final contract.
The Play
Souths lead is immaterial. but he
elected to open a trump rather than
| to lead through his partners obvi-
| ously weak heart suit. East won
| with the ace and dropped the re-
naming trumps by leading the king
His next lead was the nine of
spades to dummy's king. and he fol-
lowed with the ace of spades on
| which his losing diamond was dis
! carded.
3. He now led dummy's singleton
heart and finessed the queen. A
novice will often refuse to finesse a
singleton. but Mr. Coffin realized
that if he went up with the ace, he
must still concede one heart trick.
| The king of hearts is practically
marked with North by his opening
bid and successful finesse will give
an extra trick, which, in duplicate
play, is very valuable.
| When the queen held, he led the
ace Of hearts followed by a small one
which he ruffed in dummy. returning
to his own hand with the ace of dia-
mOnds.
He ruffed another heart and when
| Norths king dropped. declarer's re-
naming heart was established for
| the 18th trick.
This hand illustrates how good
tournament players manipulate the
play to realize every possible trick,
+, yet they do so in such a way as to
run as little risk as possible.
In this case Mr.. Coffin assured
himself that the finesse would in no
way jeopardize his small slam con-
tract, and that while he might gain
nothing by play, it could not pos
sibly result in loss

The Bidding

The Bidding
South passed and West opened
with one spade. While the hand con-
tains only 2a4 high card tricks. the
six-card suit and the honors prob
ably justify the bid.
North passed, and East bid three
hearts, a game-dema;nd force, and
strong slam invitation. West bid
three spades, a sign-off bid, show
ing a suit of at least five cards, but
no additional strength.
East now bid four clubs, a highly
constructive bid, still urging West to
proceed toward a slam if possible
West again denied any desire to con-
tinue, and bid four spades, very
strong Sign-off.
However, East now could count his
partner for five or six spades headed
by the ace-king, plus king on the
side. and short hearts and clubs, SO
he bid six spades in spite of Vests
warnings.
The Play
North opened the king of dia-
monds and dummy won with the ace.
Declarer can insure his contract by
taking the club finesse early, but
must give up a possible extra trick,
if South holds the club king. The
extra trick is extremely important at
duplicate play, and by careful timing
/ of entries, the declarer can make it
without the club finesse.
He led small heart to his king
at the second trick, and ruffed q dia-
mond in dummy. He then led the
ace and small heart, ruffing with
the three of spades.
The last diamond was ruffed in
dummy, and another heart returned
to be ruffed with the six of spades.
Now East drew all the trumps and
dummy's established seven of hearts
afforded a discard for the losing
club.
BY taking his tricks in exactly the
right order, declarer made his small
slam contract and an extra trick
winning a top on the deal.

One Of the most pessimistic sign

Is a minimum re-bid of the same
suit.
When a player is forced by his
partner. and continually responds in
the suit he first bid. he shows posi-
