Inc bluulng
The bidding was South one spade,
West pass, North three spades.
South then bid four no trump, in
viting a slam. North accepted the
invitation and went to six spades.
The Play
Vests opening lead was the three
of clubs, which was won by the
declarer with the ace. Declarer
then led small trump and West
played the ten.
The drop of the ten spot warned
the declarer that west was out
of spades, and that the four miss
ing spades were all in the East
hand-he therefore planned his line
of play accordingly.
The ace and a small heart were
played from dummy, declarer win
ing the second heart with his jack
He then played his queen of hearts,
discarding a diamond from dummy
The ace Of diamonds next was
played and a small diamond ruffed
in dummy With the five of spades.
The king of clubs now was played,
declarer discarding a diamond. De-
clarer's next play was a small club
from dummy. East was down to
four trump and the king of dia-
monds.
His best defense was to discard
his good king of diamonds. De-
clarer trumped with the seven of
spades and then led the king of
hearts and trumped it in dummy
with the queen of spades.
East had nothing but spades and
was forced to undertrump with the
three A club then was led from
dummy. East trumped, the declarer
overtrumped with the king and then
led the ace of spades.
He granted east the last trick by
leading his jack of diamonds, East
trumping with the nine of spades.

VICTORY PAGAN
LOUDLY SUNG
BY DEMOCRATS
Senators, Back in Capital,
See Sweeping Triumph in
Fall Ballot.
BY LEO r. SACK
Times STAFF Writer

WASHINGTON, July 6.-Demo-
cratic senators today are looking
forward to victory in the presiden-
tial campaign next fall
They returned to Washington
pleased with their convention, the
nominees. and the platform, and
ready to carry the fight to Presi-
dent Hoover. just as did Franklin
D. Roosevelt in his acceptance
speech.
I'VE will sweep the country in
November Nothing but a miracle
can stop us" predicted Senator
Kenneth Mcclellan of Tennessee.
1--WE will carry Ohio, Indiana, Il
linois, Minnesota, and very likely
Wisconsin and Michigan.
1--WE safely can add to these
states the entire west, with the ex-
ception possibly of Iowa and Cali
fornia.''
Roosevelt, according to Mcclellan,
clocks like a President, talks like
a President, acts like a President,
and will be an actual and a real
honeSt-to-God President He will
lead this country back to prosperity
instead of pussyfooting it into fur
Their depression and panic. Jack
Garner adds greatly to the strength
of the ticket He has all the quail
ficationS."
Sweeping Triumph Seen
Senator Connally of Texas, who
nominated Garner for the presi-
dency, said, MY view is that the
ticket will sweep the country. Roose-
YETI made a fine impression"
Senators Dill of Washington and
Hull of Tennessee, both Roosevelt
leaders, said the Republicans al
ready are on the run.
Democrats here will urge fight
ing campaign-one similar to that
of 1880, when, under the leadership
of executive director Jouett Shouse,
the faults of the Republicans were
hammered mercilessly. Roosevelt,
in his acceptance speech, indicated
that he will hold Hoover and his
Republican leadership" responsible
for the nations troubles, while Gar
ner is noted for his habit Of calling
spade spade.
Garner is expected to confer with
Roosevelt soon. 1t is expected he
will agree to carry most of the bur-
den of the campaign oratory, al
though Roosevelt probably will
make a number of speeches in the
east and middle west.
Delighted by Support
Democratic leaders here we're de-
lighted with the prompt manner in
which Governor Richie, former
Governor Byrd, Melvin A. Traylor,
and former Senator Reed Of Mis-
souri,, candidates; John w. Davis,
1924 nominee, and other leaders OPP
posed Roosevelt's nomination, have
pledged their support.
AL Smith still is the Unhappy
Warrior" but Tammany leaders
have promised their aid.
Meanwhile, James A. Farley, new
Democratic national chairman, has
begun planning his campaign or
ganization. A tentative finance
committee has been appointed to
raise funds.
Among preliminary members are
M. L. Benedum, Pittsburgh oil oper-
ator, who gave more than 100000
to Herbert Hoover four years ago,
and Anon G. Carter, Fl. Worth
publisher, who helped to finance the
Garner presidential campaign
The victory" organization, found
ed by former Chairman John j.
Raskob. is expected to carry on.

Warrant Serving.

Judge Hit of the Police Court is
unquestionably right when he chideS
policemen for serving warrants for vio
lation Of minor traffic regulations late
at night, but distinct feeling exists
that all the judges in the court should
get together and decide what consti-
tutes a minor and a major offenSe.
Otherwise Judge Hits ruling in re-
cent case may hamper the efficiency of
the police in experimenting those who
ignore traffic tickets for violations of
grave nature.
No dissenterS will probably be found
10 the argument that a policeman
should not be permitted to arouse
notorist from his bed to serve war
rant for overtime parking, even mo-
torist who has ignored a ticket placed
In his car. This type Of violator is en-
titled to some courtesy and the warrant
should be served on him at convenient
hour. On the other hand, it is hardly
likely that much controversy can be
raised over the question Of whether the
convenience Of a motorist who has
committed an offense which endangers
life or property should be considered
by policeman serving the warrant.
Parking violations, tail or headlight
violations and others of this nature
may well be placed in the category Of
offenses which are not serious But
passing red light or a stop sign, re-
fusing to yield right of way, road hog
gishneSS and others can hardly be
classed as trivial, because they directly
menace life and property.
Certainly the motorist who is charged
with this type of offense and who con-
ycniently "forgetS" the courtesy Of the
arresting officer who gives him a ticket
instead OF taking him Immediately to q
precinct station should not have his
feelings hurt very much by the noe
turnal serving of the warrant that was
necessary to bring him to trial
1t would appear obvious, then, that
some set Of rules should be laid down
by the police or the court to designate
which offenders should receive consid-
! Grafton and which should not. A chart
of this kind will 60 far In promoting
cordial relationship between the police
and the motorist.

"Alfalfa Bill"

The latest Lochinvar to come out OF
the West to WOO Miss Democracy, al
falfa Bill" Murray, Governor OF Okla
homa, does not think highly of his
rivals for the affections Of his inamo-
rata. In an interview with representa-
tives Of the press here yesterday, Gov.
Murray discarded or waved aside Gov.
Roosevelt of New York, former Gov.
Smith Of New York, Newton D. Baker
OF Ohio and Owen D. Young Of New
York. He expects to have the Okla
homa delegation to the Democratic Ma
tional Convention pledged to himself,
although Gov. Murray declined to dis
cuss his own candidacy for the presi-
Dental nomination. 1t is reported that
he intends to oppose Franklin D. Roose-
welt In the presidential primaries which
are to be held in North and South Da-
kota. If he does, his prospects for
presidential nomination are likely to be
considerably less bright than even he
has believed to be the case, if Dakota
Democrats are to be credited with
knowing about the situation in their
own States.
Alfalfa Bill" staged a spectacular
comeback in Oklahoma politics a couple
OF years ago. He had been a member
of the House back in World War days,
but failed to be renominated in 1916.
Later he moved to Bolivia, where he
engaged in the colonization of the
Southeastern part of that country. But
that did not pan out as well as it might
and Gov. Murray returned to Oklahoma,
jumped into a many-sided contest for
the gubernatorial nomination and won
out. His political star was again in the
ascendency. He advanced for con-
sideration of the people of Oklahoma
number of legislative and executive
remedies for the economic situation. In
q referendum vote, however. his pro-
posals were turned down, which took a
bit Of luster from the Alfalfa Bill
6isdem.
Gov. Murray's complaint against
Roosevelt Is that he lacks courage, !"
and against Newton D. Baker that he
is "a baby in politics" 1t sounds as
though the Oklahoma Governor had
been reading some Of the anonymous
books on politics and candidates pub
lished In recent months. He insists,
however, that it is time for the Demo
Gratis to get back to first principles,
which sounds rather like the doctrine
preached by Gov. Richie of Maryland.
On the other hand, he asserts that
prohibition should not come into the
national campaign this year, and he
would not have the Democratic party
platform take a stand against prohibit
ton. Indeed, Gov. Murray is slated to
address the Anti-Saloon League con-
vention In session here today. He
might throw sop to the vets in his
party by urging the adoption OF
declaration in the platform to the effect
that the people have right TO amend
the Constitution.

Potomac Bridges.

The informal opening Of the Airing
ton Memorial Bridge, marked on Satur-
day by its crossing by presidential
party and yesterday by its use by more
than 10000 vehicles, adds greatly
needed traffic facility TO the Capital
The completion of this work is the con-
summation Of many years of proposal
and endeavor. Fully four decades ago
the plan to span the Potomac at that
point as q symbol Of the reunion of the
sections was advanced. The Long
Bridge and the Aqueduct Bridge were
then the only means Of crossing the
river south Of Little Falls, where Chain
Bridge spanned the stream. Since then
the Key Bridge has replaced the Aque-
duct and the old Long Bridge has been
supplanted by two structures, one for
highway and trolley service and one
for railway use. The opening Of the
Memorial Bridge in advance Of cere-
monisl dedication was justified by the
trsfic requirements, which have taxed
the capacity OF the two other structures
and on special occasions have greatly
exceeded accommodations.
When the Arlington Bridge plan was
FIRST advanced there was no thought OF
the location on the north bank Of the
Lincoln Memorial. 1t was, indeed, the
establishment of this great national
tribute to the war President that led
TO the definite adoption Of the bridge
plan. Yet it is to be believed that even
II the memorial had gone elsewhere
the Potomac would some day have been
spanned by structure which marked
the restoration Of the Union of States
Together with the construction of the
bridge has come the building of 8
boulevard connecting the Capital with
Mount Vernon. That work, while CON-
plete in the sense Of affording a
through traffic way, is still in progress!

Ten years ago Henry Ford's offer for

from the pen Of that sterling Will

Garner as "the most genuine per-
