 politics, but one of them who has given much study to this problem said this republican plan was sim- ply proposal for another "com- mission" since the constitutional conventoin could be only advisory. He said it would be just like the Wickersham commission so far as any authority went.
 This plap is being discussed among cabinet members but can not be fairly referred to as an administration plan"-yet. It is sponsored by one of President Hopvers most trusted advisors. But he is still trying it out and en- couraging discussion of it among his intimates. If it stands the test of this inner circle debate, it may emerge later with the sanction of the highest party authority.
 It differs from the Missouri plan which Secretary of Agriculture Hyde is under instructions to ad- vocate as a delegate at the. re- publican national convention.
 Its sponsor explained that it could be put into operation by d HHdJOrlty vote or congress whereas under the Missouri plan, nothing could happen until two-thirds of the legislatures petitioned congress to act.
 Congress has ordered referenda before. In 1918 it passed an act authorizing prohibition referen- dunn in Hawaii. In 1S46 congress passed law returning part of the District of Columbia to Virginia provided citizens affected approved the transfer in referendum. Later this referendum was challenged in the supreme court which, with out passing directly on the consti- tutionality of the law, refused to overturn the result.
 A variation of the convention plan was laid before the Wicker sham commission but was reject ed. The advantage of having the referendum in an off year was stressed in an interview given to the United Press some weeks ago by Joseph R. Mutt, treasurer of the republican national committee.

ministration spokesman, sought to assure the senators that 'the Bri- tish are honest and provision will be made for the payments" of $I71. 100000 due next December and June following expiration of the one-year moratorium. It was pointed out that the British chan cellor of the exche equer, Neville Chamberlain, in submitting the budget, announced that later in the year he would make ''whether proposals may be necessary" af- ter the Lausanne conference on separations and war debts. Borah in his addresses de- declared:
 "It is said that the war ended with the armistice. War as re- morseless has continued since Mo- vember II. 1918, because it has reached more people. The econ omic and financial war has never ceased.
 Until measures are taken which relieve and change that condition 1t is idle pastime to talk of the can- cellation or the pouring of more of the American peoples money into Europe"
 London, April 20.-(UP)-Omis- sion of war debt payments to the United States in the British budget, thus disturbing the United States budget, was interpreted o-day as in some quarers as bold move to force consideration of war debts revision. and among conservative elements it caused some concern. Chancellor of the Exchequer Chamberlain's omission coupled with Ogden Mills recent clear cut announcement that the United United States does not intend to ex- tend the Hoover moratorium after July created unique diploma tic situation.
 Unofficial American quarters here considered 1t a bold move to force the United States to recon slider her war debts position but official British circles ridiculed the suggestion of repudiation of war debts by the British government.
 Chamberlains' decision was ex- plained as merely leaving the war debts item open until after the Lausanen conference.

ask for assistance In order to keep
themselves and their children from
starving. such are the daily expert
ences OF our social workers. Never
before has there been such splendid
and intelligent cooperation between
these two agencies than Just now.
The hungry must be fed, the naked
clothed and the homeless housed.
This is our first obligation. Food,
clothing and warm shelter. For
Christ's sake and for humanitys sake
these must be provided, for it would
be to our everlasting shame as citi-
zens OF Bismarck II we permitted one
family to 60 hungry or one human to
perish because Of our neglect. We
dare not allow our basic social serv-
ices that have distinguished our
American life to break down In this
the hour of our direst need.
Il am convinced that there will be
no hunger strike in our immediate
vicinity this winter, no rioting and
no disregard for the sanctity Of our
laws, for even though our wages have
been cut, out of grateful thankful
hearts we will gladly give to those
who have no work and no income at
all. I feel sure that we who are
strong will come to the help of those
who are weak and cheerfully help to
bear our brothers burden. am
convinced that no citizen among us
will seek to sidestep his or her
responsibility in this hour. All that
is required of any one Of us is that
we do our best, and GOD KNOWS
OUR BEST FROM OUR SECOND

Appeal to Bismarck citizens to do

Excerpts from the address follow:
II do not need to tell you that we
are just entering upon the hardest
winter that we have ever seen as q
nation, with literally millions Of our
citizens unemployed, homes broken
down, little children hungry, boys
and girls compelled to leave school
and strong men and women losing
their morale.
I'm these most trying days Bis
marck becomes our own special first
responsibility. These are our hospi-
tails, our schools, our churches, our
business houses and our homes, and
every man, woman, boy and girl that
lives in this community becomes our
moral responsibility, for as goes the
welfare of the individual citizen so
goes the welfare Of the city itself.
If Bismarck fails, then we fail. The
problem of life for us is to learn how
to live together and work together
for the best interests of all concern.

&c EXPERIS PLAY IT 80
BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY
.retarv. American Rridre Leagu


Secretary, American Bridge League
It had been expected that some
change would be made in the honor
count, but this was left untouched,
as follows:
Four Honors-at a suit-held in
one hand. 100 points.
Five Honors-at a suit-held In
one hand, $50 points.
Four Aces-at no trump-held in
one hand, $50 points.
The change that will undoubtedly
receive the greatest amount of cri-
ticism is the one made in the grand
slam bonuses which are as follows:
Grand Slam Formerly Now
Not Vulnerable 1000 1900
Vulnerable 1900 2250
The small slam bonuses remain the
same, as follows:
Small Slam Formerly Now
Not Vulnerable 500 500
Vulnerable $50 $50
It is quite true that few grand
slams are successfully bid, and, of
course, not all of them are made.
This particular bonus will not adapt
itself to duplicate play, as the sacri-
flee bidder will be willing to 60 down
seven or eight tricks to stop a grand
slam by the opponents.
The objection that the rubber or
money bridge player has to offer is
that you can sit down for an entire
evening, play very fine cards, actual
ly outplaying your opponents by
winning four out of five rubbers from
them. Finally, on the last rubber, the
opponents, who are vulnerable, are
dealt all Of the high cards and they
bid for grand slam.
Generally there is little or no play
to the making of a grand slam-they
spread their hand, receiving such q
large award that it completely wipes
out all of the points that you may
have gained by good play through
out an entire evening.
However, there is this much to be
said in favor Of the change-the
odds in favor Of the declarer risking
a sure small slam for doubtful
grand slam are about even.
For example, suppose that you
were positive that you could make
a small slam vulnerable. With your
trick score, game bonus and the
small slam bonus, this would be worth
approximately 1900 points. In the
past, in order to bid for a grand
slam, it was necessary to risk this
sure 1900 points to try to win an adj
ditional doubtful $50 points, but now
as the grand slam bonus has been
increased $50 points, you risk 1900
points to try to win 1900 more points.
The experienced tournament play
er has felt that the move should
have been towards reducing all slam
bonuses rather than increasing them.
Rubber premiums remain as fol-
lows:
Three game rubber, 500 points.
Two-game rubber, 700 points.
However, where a rubber ends by
arrangement before either side has
won two games, the side which has
won one game adds 300 points to
their score: This is an increase Of
100 points over the old bonus.
