RRDGE.
By VIM. E. MCKINNEY

Secretary, American Bridge League
 "Do you ever bid a hand con- tafning less than three high-card tricks in the one over one sys- tem?" Is a question often asked. This Ia occasionally done. For ex- ample. take the following hand:
 Spades-K.Q-J-4-2
 Hearts-K.Q-J-3-2
 Diamonds-5
 Clubs-4.S
 The hand contains two strong five-card major suits, but only two high-card tricks.
 If you open with one spade and partner responds with a no trump, clubs or diamonds, you will De able to bid two hearts. Now, II he makes a re-bid, you can sign the hand off with bid of three spades. For example, supposing the bidding were one spade by you, two diamonds by partner. you bid two hearts, three clubs from partner. You should now bid three spades and sign the hand off.
 Supposing, however, that the dia- nlbonds and hearts were reversed in this hand, as follows;
 Spades-K.Q-J-4-2
 Herats-5
 DiamOnds-K-Q-J-S-2
 Clubs-4-3
 The hand should now be passed. While 1t contains identically the same cards, two strong suits and two high-card tricks, here is your problem.
 If you open with one spade, spartner will very probably re- spond with two hearts because you hold singleton heart and the odds are greatly in favor of his holding hearts if he has any bid at all.
 Holding a singleton heart. you would be forced to show your sec- ond suit with a bid of three dia- monds, and undoubtedly partners next response would be either three no trump or four clubs and you would be away up in the up- per heavens with this hand with out any high-card tricks.
 It is all right to bid two suit hands even though you do not have a great number of high-card tricks. if you will realize what may happen, and if you are in a position to handle all of the situ-- ations so that the bidding does not get out of reach. I give you the above example not to impress upon you the fact that in the one over one system of contract bidding we may open with two high-card tricks, but rather to show you the fiexibility of the system--that 1t Is based upon absolute common sense and sound reasoning.
 What I wish my readers to re- alize in making a first or second- hand bid in the. one over one sys- tenn, Is that 1t is not only high

fact that isn't what Mr Glover said at all. at al according to his latest statement. He denies emphstieally making demands of the postmasters to get out and electioneer for Hoover. He claims he was misrepresented by the press and didn't once refer to par. tisan politics.
 II that is the case then good many of us owe Mir Glover an apology. In fairness to him we believe that we should reprint what he now claims was the main point of his address to the Missouri convention. namely that We are all Americans and our ,ountfy is going through perilous times. and. whether we are republicans. democrats, so- eialists or prohibitionsts, all should stand four-square back of our President.
 'lt is time for all of us, including the postmasters. to be on the firing line to as- sist in every way and to support the PreS- dents program to bring this nation out of the serious times through which we arc passing.
 If there arc any postmasters who do not want to do this. it is up to them to resign and will be glad to take their rcsignations back to Washington with me. where l will be on Monday. :"
 However. Mir Glover has already been condemned by public officials and the New York Herald. Tribune even took him to task. Perhaps his defense of his plea is too late to do any good. However, he had his dc. lenders. The Waterbury Republican excuses his enthusiasm for Hoover on the ground that his superiors set him an example in previous demands upon postmaster. Also 1t seems that the democratic party has failed miscrably to put back into effect the civil service regulations that Woodrow Wilson had adopted, but which the late Warren c. Harding promptly had dropped since they gave little lceway for distribution of g,o.p. patronage.
 The late President Wilson secured pas sage of civil service laws affecting post. masters which recognized the highest appl- cant in competitive examinations President Harding changed that SO the three highest applicants could be considered for the post. mastcrship. President Coolidge did nothing to change back 10 the Wilson formula and President Hoover has had little success in pressing for it's revival. The argument is that the democrats haven't done anything to rid the postal department of it's spells system. They didn't do anything about making the Connecticut courts and state commissions b-partisan, either, until democratic governor was elected, There's still hope for a return to the Wilson idea of civil service appointments in the postal department.

Costly Teeth

Teeth scholarship and taxes arc closely related if survey made by the American Dental Association has set forth the fact ae' euralcy. In Chicago it was found it cost taxpayers $750,000 a year 10 carry on the education of children who fail to pass their grades because of bad teeth, In Atlanta Ga. after an active dental program in the public schools. every child in the system was brought up 10 standard dentaIly. where. upon tlS number of them who failed to pass their grades was reduced from 32 to 8 per cent, The financial saving resulting from that gain in scholarship was estimated al $250 900 q year.
 In New York it was reported that of 10000 children examined. those with two or more bad teeth averaged five months be- hind their grades. It need not be said that in every ease the bad teeth caused the mental dulneSS. The same causes of malnutrtion and neglect of general health were doubt less responsible both for dental troubles and school incffIeicney Nevertheless, when the dental defects arc discovered and the remedies applied. much is accomplished toward end ing thc bad combination.

Human Frailties

The confession of John Hughes Curtis. Norfolk. Va. boat builder, that he perpe- trated monstfous hoax upon Colonel Charles Lindbergh is merely one more bit of evidence to prove that the Kidnapping and murder of the Lindbergh baby brought out the worst traits in mankind. Although Curtis claims that he had no intention ot defrauding the Lindberghs he undoubtedly was motivated in the same fashion as was .Gaston D. Means, and dozen or more others who today would be elassed simply as
 chiselers''. We don't know any word that defines their activities better than this.
 We sincerely hope that the law will act promptly and drastiealy in the eases of Mr Curtis and others who attempted to force their way into the case. We don't doubt but what any jury in the country would find them guilty of any and all charges pre- ferred if they were tried in this manner. Certainly their pleas for immunity on the various grounds now being advanced should not overweight the seriousness of their crime nor the effects that their maehinations had upon the murder of the infant. According to iDr. John F. Condon. who apparently was tfle SoIe lHteIHtuidIT oH tbe ofuaiS' Suian activities actually caused the baby to be mur- .dcsed. That's a serious charge, but no more serious than the msdding that Curtis and 2 his fix did.
 The spectacle of Mr, Curtis and his clerical friend pointing the accusing finger at each other would be amusing if it were not for the henousness of their crimes. Dean Dobson. Peacock may have been annoeent pawn in the shipbuIlder's game. Even so, he might have been shrewd enough to have seen through Curtiss nefarious scheme before /, it had progressed very far. But he quite evi' .dsntly was willing 10 string along basking in his share of publicity. As far as we can see : the entire eaw despite the eoloncls entreat- ies has been an attempt to capitalize any cf' fforts the individual might be making for detention of the kidnapers or recovery of the baby What moekery and sham we made of a tragic episode. How quickly human frailtics arc exposed at such time.

A Prohibitionist Speaks

Those who were fortunate enough 10 hear the radio address of Dean Gleason l.. Archer of the Suffolk Law School of Bos. ton. Mass, last Saturday night, heard an ex' eellcnt discussion of the present prohibition muddle. Dean Archer is believer in pro- hibition but he is also firmly convinced that the methods by which this nation is seeking io secure it are wrong Discussing the situ. ation from legal standpoint he declared quite emphatieally that the only reasonable and sure way out of the present difficulties is to permit the states to decide each for themselves in this matter. He believes that only in this way will eventually proper feeling and respect for temperance exist in the United States And that is the opinion that we have always entertained,
 or course the idea of giving up the ground that it has taken them over cen tury to win is repugnant 10 all prohibition 'ists. But sooner or later they will be forced to abandon their program of temperance work Rather than see the cause of temper anee defeated forever in this nation we should think they would be glad to com. promise yield in some sections of the
 
 ever before did have at any one period of our history. Under the plan unfolded by Dean Archer the l 9th amendment would be a. mcnded SO that the Eth amendment would apply only to those states in which laws now exist or where they might wish in the future to outlaw liquor.
 The federal government would thus be free to aid dry states from the cneroachmcnt of neighboring or nearby wet states and tbe latter group would have within their own jurisdictions exclusive powers over liquor manufacture. sale, importation, etc. or course. plans similar to this are under dis eussion every day. The general complaint is that such system would create too much confusion. but certainly no more so than under the present general plan of prohibl- ,tion Under Dean Archers scheme dry states would always be protected by the fed. craI government and could by their example hope to entiee wet states to join them in their stand
 Understanding that Dean Archer is prohbitionist we can understand his legal solution of the present difficulty There will be no sponsorship for those states that are wet by Uncle Sam. He gives his aid to the dry states only. If we should incline to the law school Deans theory. We should forever remove the government from any participation in the liquor business. Many people believe that the government will have to go into it in order to prevent private profit playing too important a part in the return of the licensed saloon. It's good plan that Dean Archer presents. that is. good one for the drys. but not so good for the vets.
