THE mild little butcher in the
A. small Lancashire town always
had fancied himself as a poet; so,
when he got legacy that freed him
from his job, he packed up, went to
London and set out to cut a figure
in the literary world.
Unfortunately, nothing went right.
The literary people he met made a
joke of him. His poems failed to go
over.
He finally did get a post as editor
of an arty sort of magazine, but the
magazine was flop, public acclaim
was not forthcoming, and he finally
wound up by getting desperately
angry.
And when he got angry, he re-
membered that he had brought two
fine butcher knives to London; so
he got them out and began saunter-
ing about the streets at night, stick
ing them into people.
This, very briefly, is an outline of
''Man Made Angry" by Hugh
Brooke It is one of the neatest
horror stories of the year.
Mr.. Brooke builds up to his eli
max with a sure hand You fairly
can feel the development of his in
offensive butcher-poet into a hon.
icidal maniac, and when the man
finally runs amuck and commits a
series of eerie, meaningless muir
ders the thrills prance up and down
your spine at a great rate.

CONT RACI

BY ". E. M,KENNEY

Secretary American Bridge League
WHAT is the safest system for
w bidding slams? That is a
paramount question in contract
bridge. Showing a definite number
Of quick tricks is not always salts
factory, as there may be a duplica-
ton of values.
The better player today is begin
ming to realize that to invite slam,
he must have command of at least
two suits.
1t is generally very easy for part
ner to read the two commands
which you hold. Remember, how
ever, that this command of a suit
means that you hold either void
suit or the ace-king- queen jack is
not enough.
When employing the one over one
system if partner were to open
with a bid of one heart and you
knew that your hand held sufficient
strength for him to go game, you
should bid three hearts.
This bid Immediately informs
partner that four can be made, but
that you are not inviting a slam.
If you jump the bid to four
hearts, you say to partner, I'VE are
safe at five" and that you have COM
mand of two suitS-a jump Of one
to four is a slam invitation and
should not be made unless you do
have those two commands.
HERE'S another example of
II showing control-suppose you
open with a bid of one no trump
and partner bids two no trump.
If you we're now to bid four no
trump ca most unlikely bid, but
simply made to illustrate the point)
you would be telling partner that
you had absolute command of two
suits-in other words, that you
held two suits that were headed by
aces as the contract is no trump.
In addition, you would inform
him that you had a working suit
and sufficient tricks, in your opin-
ion, to make a slam, if he holds a
little additional strength.
In cue bidding, commands are also
essential. For example, partner
opens the bidding with one heart
and the next hand bids one spade.
II
IF you now bid two spades you
L show-frst, no losing spades;
second, normal support in hearts;
third, slam invitation.
You must have command of one
other suit besides the spade suit
because you are inviting a slam.
1 am quite sure that if you will
refuse to invite slams unless you
hold these two commands, that you
Immediately will find that you are
not bidding slam after slam that
can not be made.
Next I am going to show you
an interesting hand that came ur
in a recent tournament where two
partners who were using this COM
mand system of bidding, safely
kept from going to a grand slam,
and how easily they could have ar
rived at the grand slam if it had
been there.

WU'S EXILE ENDS;
JOINS OLD ENEMIES
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PEIPING, February 2.-Marshal WI
Pei-Fu, that foxy old enemy of the
Chinese republic, has returned from
years of exile in a remote Buddhist
monastery to unite with his former
rivals against common foe
The first to salute him as an honored
guest was the young marshal" Chang
HSiaoLiang, whose authority over Man
churia was obliterated by the japanese
Army of Occupation and whose father,
the late Marshal Chang Tso-Lin,
fought many bitter battle with Mar
Skal WI.
Marshal WI, who was accompanied
by bodyguard of 1,200 men, said his
sole object was to unite all Chinese
in one front against foreign aggres-
sion" 1t was generally believed he
would be given command of Marshal
Chang's troops, who were driven south
of the Great Wall in Japan's drive on
Chinchow.
In his heyday Marshal WI was one
of the powerful war lords of North
China and ranked on par with Mar
shall Chang Tso-Lin and Gen. Feng Yo-
Hsiang. He virtually controlled Peiping
(then Peking) from 1920 to 1924 and
several times pushed Marshal Chang
back into the faStneSses of Manchuria.
But when Gen. Chang Kai-Shek,
later President, started his drive on the
ancient Chinese capital in 1925, Mar
shall WI was defeated in great battle
and his downfall seemed to be complete
He retired to innern1oSt SZechuen Prov
ince to become a monk and only recent

the sweeps and brought to the surface
can be disposed of quickly with a we'll

Sweeper service is hard work with
its full share of dangers, and it brings
too little recognition in war and in
peace as we'll.
Equally entitled to place in the
front rank when the feet puts to sea
is the destroyer.
The destroyer's part at the time of
the fleets sortie has to do with sub
marines, for it is favcrite plan to
station submarine or two off the
enemy's ports to observe his movements
and report them.
The task of our deStroyers is to keep
the enemy submarines down.
The transports loaded with soldiers
are our treasure trove. We cannot do
what we have undertaken if we fail to
bring these soldiers, the ultimate factor
in the dispute, to the very ground we
want to seize.
Therefore our chief concern, now
that we are at sea, is to safeguard our
transports.
At this stage Of the game our su-
perior naval strength enables us to
safeguard adequately our Army and
our vital supplies. There are no enemy
ships to threaten our SECURITY at this
time and for several dass we can move

RAILWAY DESCRIBED
AS SEAT OF TROUBLE
Chinese Educator Also Blames
Japan's Insistence on Secret
Treaties.
Rr the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ga, February MAN
churia was pictured as the Alsace-Lor-
raine of the Sino-Japanese conflict by
DR.. It. z. Koo, Chinese educator, in an
interview with the Atlanta Journal
yesterday.
Here for a lecture DR.. Koo said
three major factors are lnVolVed IN
Japan's desire for foothold IN Man
Churia
He designated them as follows:
The Manchurian railway systems
Japanese demands for eXtraterrltorlal-
ity for her nations, and JapanS IN
SiStence on secret agreements.
.',Japan insists we respect her treaty
rights" DR.. Koo said. Japan built
the South Manchurian Railroad under
an agreement China would have the
right to buy it back at the end OF 36
wears. or at the end of 80 years 1t
would revert without cost to China.
The 36-year period would end in
1899. In 1915 Japan forced on CHINA
the q demands. one of which extended
the railroad agreement SO years. We
had to sign or be destroyed. Now Japan
insists we respect this second agree
ment. forced on us, rather than the
first one. If we do, it is tantamount
to giving Japan the railway forever,
for at the end of SO years another
agreement would be forced on US
DR.. Koo said land leasing by Japa-
nese in ManChuria was another point
of contention.
Japan demands that their nationals
remain subject to japanese law rather
than Chinese. and China retaliated by
denying them the right to purchase
land outright. Japan wishes to enforce
secret agreements extending indefi-
nitely the land leases now held by her
nationals
The only solution I can see is for
the two governments to get together
and seek a mutually cooperative basis
for living together in Manchuria. This
is rather hard to do with the present
party in control in Japan"
