End Play Problems

There are in sight seven
tricks-six trumps and the Ace
of Clubs. The eighth trick must
be made either in the Heart
the Diamond suit. II is mani
testify impossible for w to ex-
haust trumps and then make a
trick in Diamonds as z will be
forced with Hearts, and will be
obliged to lead away three
times from his K of Diamonds.
1t is also evident that ALB will
not allow " to ruff Diamond.
Therefore the added trick must
be made in the heart suit.
Play the hand as follows:
Win the first trick with US
Ace of Clubs. Lead the 4 Of
Hearts; trump with the @. Lead
back the Z of Spades; win with
US 8. Lead the 6 Of Hearts;
trump with the K. Lead the 8
of Spades; win with the j. Lead
the 9 of Hearts; win with the
Ace of Spades.
The object of trumping three
Hearts is to insure BIS Inability
to win a Heart trick. The rea-
son for trumping high is to
make certain that A connot es-
cape being thrown in the lead
with a spade. To avoid being
thrown in the lead with a
trump. + will try throwing mis-
10 of Spades under US j and
his 6 unde. Y's 9, AS 3 cannot
help winning over rs 2, which
is now led on the seventh trick.
after w have won the first
six tricks, and want to win two
added tricks.
A must lead for the eighth
trick, his Nine of Diamonds.
Under it z must play his Eight.
If z wins diamond trick he
will be forced to put B in the
lead, and B will win the bal
ance of the tricks. The ninth
lead will be AS Jack of Dla-
monds; under it will go rs 10.
Under AS Ace will fall BIS
Queen of Diamonds and rs
King. A will win the eleventh
trick with his Seven of Dla-
monds. A has won five tricks
and w have won six tricks.
Now A must lead a heart, and
the last two tricks will be won
by Y, giving his side its eight
tricks total.
Problem 16
The following is by Ernest
Bergholt. Hearts are trumps.
2 is to lead. w are to win all
six tricks against any defense
by ABB. The solution will ap-
pear next week.

TARIFF ON SUGAR

Campaign Speeches.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DENVER, October 1e-Continuing
his campaign tour, Vice President
Charles Curtis carried on into Kansas
today after an address here last night,
in which he dealt mainly with what
he termed the advantages of the Re-
publican protective tariff over the
Democratic plan for dealing with i'm
ports.
The Republicans in their platform" !"
the Vice President said, promise the
farmers protection against substitutes
for farm products and this promise will
be kept. The Democrats promise you
nothing but a competitive tariff for
revenue which will not protect single
farmer in this land"
The Vice President said he would
like to see the tariff on sugar placed
so high that American companies would
produce every ounce OF sugar used in
this country"
Referring to recently published corre-
spondence between Gov. Franklin D.
Roosevelt and La Casa Grande Co. in
Havana, Cuba, he said he had photo
static copies of the letters, lone from
the Cuban sugar company approving
the news that he (RoosevelD would
cut the sugar tariff 20 per cent ad
valorem and the other letter from
Roosevelt thanking them for their kind
appreciation of his policies
And I want to say" he declared,
'that if that promise is carried out by
the Democratic candidate, it will ruin
every sugar beet grower in the United
States and close up every sugar fac
tory"
He (Roosevelt) now says he signed
the letter without reading it, What
kind of President would that man
make for us when he signs important
letters to foreign countries without
reading them? . Any man Is q
chump that signs his name to docu-
ments he doesn't read"

VANDENBERG HITS
THREAT TO SUGAR
Tells Michigan Farmers Gov.
Roosevelt Is Committed to
Lower Tariff.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ALMA. Mich, October Ex-senator
Arthur H. Vandenberg, Republican, Of
Michigan. speaking in the heart OF
Michigans sugar beet territory. in a
political address here last night, de-
clared a Democratic victory would be a
direct threat to the sugar beet industry.
A copy of his speech. made public
through National Republican headquar-
ters. asserted that Gov. Roosevelt, the
Democratic nominee for President, al
ready was committed to reduction to 20
per cent ad valorem on the sugar duty.
The Senator displayed a copy of a
Cuban newspaper which reproduced a
letter assertedly from Gov Roosevelt
thanking Cubans for their congratula-
tionS upon his nomination.
ANY such reduction in the sugar tar
iff would mean that the American farm
erS could not possibly get more than 81
ton for their beets. Is this the Demo-
cratic idea of farm relief? No wonder
foreign producers are cheering the DEM
ocratic nominee" the speech said.
Senator Vandenberg said Michigan
farmers asked particularly for increased
protection for sugar and beans and
that both were obtained in the Smoot-
Hawley bill.
I'VE can not make Cuban farmers and
American farmers happy simultane-
ously,' he said. The Republican pro-
gram insists upon caring for America
first"
