It was devised by Me Sims to show hand just as pow crfut as tic original two bid but one that wished to become tho de- ciarer, and sought information from partner rather than aesistance in selecting the correct declaration. you mtist have q suit which does not calf for any support from part ner.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 5.-Employes
of the General Motors Corporation who
began putting something by for rainy
DAY six years ago are now collecting
more than 50 for each dollar put by.
The corporation is distributing $780,
459 in cash and stock to 30222 Of its
employees who invested in its savings
and investment fund class of 1926.

the fund is receiving $66l71 in cash
and stock. The stock is valued as of
December 81, or at S22.62 a share,
which is only Sl37 above yesterdays

Speaking of the corporations aim in
furthering a spirit of thrift among its
employees, Mr.. Sloan said: Industry to-
day is recognizing in increasing meas
ure its broader social responsibilities
and is endeavOring to answer in a prac-
tical way the many problems involved
in meeting them.
There is now a wider acceptance
Of the fact that the hazards of indus
try should be shared to a reasonable
extent between industry and worker.
General Motors, belleVe, through It's
savings and investment plan, has made
an important contribution to tr.o pro-
gram of industrial cooperation for the
stabiliZation and Improvement of the
economic position of the worker
The principle is simple; 1t is moth
tng more nor less than a plan of or
ganized saving and the investment Of
the corporations in its own common
stock. The plan for many thousands
has been of immeasurable assistance
during this period of business dis
turbance and for many other thousands
1t is helping to achieve economic Sc
curity for the future"
The total rumber Of employees partic-
ipating in the investment funds is
10000 Mr.. Sloan said. and approx
