decided to try for the sacrifice and
bid five diamonds. North and West
passed and East bid five spades. South
and West passed and North went to
six diamonds, which East promptly
doubled.
The Play
Vests opening lead was spade.
which declarer ruffed in dummy with
the six of diamonds. The ace and a
small heart were returned, declarer
ruffing the second heart with the
four Of diamonds.
Declarer next led his ace Of clubs
and when the queen dropped from
East. he led the seven Of clubs and
finessed the eight.
If East had trumped this card
there would have been no way Of
stopping South from making six odd,
as he could then pick up the trump,
ruff heart and still have a club
with which to take the club finesse
The real defensive play that was
made was that East refused to ruff
the club but discarded a small spade.
Declarer entered his hand by ruffing
another heart; but now when he led
the six OF clubs and finessed the ten,
East ruffed with the deuce of dia-
monds.
East then led a spade which the
declarer trumped in dummy with the
jack of diamonds.
The king of diamonds was led from
dummy: but when declarer led dunn
my's king Of clubs on which to dis
card his losing spade, East ruffed the
queen Of diamonds, forcing the de-
clarer to over-ruff with the ace Of
diamonds. The declarer then had q
losing spade.
Refusing to ruff the first club and
waiting for the second club lead be-
fore ruffing is without doubt the
prettiest defensive play I have seen
this year.

Secretary, American Bridge League
You can talk about your squeeze
plays, end plays and grand coups, but
still believe the most thrilling play
in bridge is finely executed defen-
sive play, and here is one that came
up in a recent tournament.
Again we find the declarer playing
a small slam contract for what he
thought to be a sacrifice, and it took
very fine defensive play to stop him
from making his contract.
Generally, If the declarer leads q
card Of suit Of which you have none,
and you have trump, it pays to ruff,
but in this hand you must refrain
from doing that on the first round.
The Bidding
South and West passed. North
made a third hand opening bid Of
one heart. East made q negative
double-what he was really interested
in was to find out whether or not
his partner held four spades.
South overcalled the double with
two diamonds. West had q singleton
Of one suit bid by the opponents and
doubleton of the other, also two
five-card suits. More particularly, he
had five of a major suit.
While he had no tricks, he was JUS
titled in making an overcall Of two
spades as it was constructive bid
and the distribution justified it.
North bid three diamonds and East
bid three spades. South passed and
West went to four spades.
North and East passed and South

Two Derby Jockeys Are Suspended
Don Meade and Herb Fischer,
Who Rode Brokers' Tip
and Head Play, Out

Baltimore, May 9.-(P)-The sus-
pension Of Don Meade, for action dur
ing his ride Of E. r. Bradley's Brokers
Tip to victory In the Kentucky Derby
caused considerable speculation around
the Pimlico track as to the Jockey who
will be up on the colt in the Freak
ness Saturday.
Meade and Herb Fischer, rider Of
Head Play, were set down at Churchill
Downs Monday, each for 30 days for
being guilty Of grasping the equip
ment Of the other" during the Derby
and Fischer an additional five days
for striking Meade after the race.
Meade's suspension, while 1t does
not apply to stake race engagements
in Kentucky, bars the jockey from all
Maryland tracks during the period,
according to Matt Dagger, secretary Of
the Maryland Jockey club.
Jimmy Smith, veteran Bradley
rider, who rode Brokers Tip In all
four races last year. was mentioned as
the most probable to take Meade's
place.

year.
OF the 9l3 officially in the lists, 80

coming stubborn resistance from the
New York Giants.
French held the Braves to three
singles while the Pirates, giving new
evidence that they have overcome the
southpaw jinx that handicapped them
last year, walloped Tom Zachary for
nine hits, five Of them doubles, to win

because of his pleasant, gentle manner.
They dread him because all the con-

subject-taritf reductions. And very
few countries are interested in tariff
reductions at the present moment.
The appointment of Mr.. Hull as Sec
retary of State was somewhat Of sur
prise even to the initiated.
He had never been in the limelight;
he had never attended even Gridiron

him. In the Senate and in the House

Yet, there is not a single Senator or

Secretary Hull was an apostle of

Only once since he has taken over

And then it was only at the lack Of

What happened was this Because an

TAXES FOR. RELIEF
BATTLE NEW YORK
Legislature to Meet This
Week to Consider New
Revenue Sources.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 22.-The city that
eats up an annual budget of half a
billion dollars is scraping the cupboard
bare for its 10000 needy families.
AS result, the State Legislature will
meet in special session at Albany
Wednesday to hear what Father
Knickerbocker has to say for himself
and to help him find a way out of his
dilemma.
The city figures it will need $22 900,
900 or $4,000, 600 to keep its unemploy-
ment relief agencies functioning the re-
mainder of the year Beyond that 1t
will need SAL 100000 a year extra for
at least two more years, in the opinion
of Welfare Commissioner Frank j
Taylor.
Taylor has warned Of riots if the
money Is not forthcoming.
Bankers Stop Loans.
The bankers in Wall Street will make
new sources of revenue. It Is the latter
field that the Legislature will aid.
Banks already are owed 0,000, 900 in
short-term notes, $25,000,000 of which
are due on December %. AS Controller
Charles w. Berry phrased it:
The city is now at the end of its
present resources and only by obtaining
new revenue can the city continue its
relief program
How is the money to be raised?
Mayor John P. O'Brien suggested a
city tax on automobiles and a toll on
bridges, but his proposals were howled
down. The Board of Aldermen pro-
posed tax on dance and music in
structors, but that did not get far. y
Critics of the city administration
blame the present plight on extrava-
gance and poor economy, while it's
friends assert that thousands of prop
erty owners have fallen behind with
their taxes and that unemployment re-
lief is an extraordinary burden.
From January l to May 81 this year
the city spent s13,611. .797 for that item,
while the State and Federal govern
ments contributed an additional ST.
084,326.
Fare Tax Is Possible
As the Legislature prepares to meet,
two possible tax sources stand out in
discussions. One is an increase in the
State sales tax and in the stock trans
fer tax, the additional revenue to be
refunded to the cities by the State The
other Is a 2-cent tax on subway fares.
Gov. Lehman, in consenting to call a
special session, warned at the outset
that he was opposed to any tampering
with the State tax machinery.
A 2-cent subway tax would produce
an estimated s4o,oo0,00O year, just
short OF the amount sought. But the
scent fare has been one Of Tammany
Halls biggest prides-and an election Is
coming in the Fall.
Mayor O'Brien has turned the task
OF formulating a tax program over to
the Democratic leaders of the Ieaisla- :
ture, both New York City men. He
hopes the fact that several upstate
cities could use some extra money
themselves will win the Republican,
controlled Assembly over to q rise in
the State impostS.

BY r. B. HUDSON

American seamen and long
shoremen have taken up the
struggle for higher wages and
better working conditions. The
preparations for the Second
National Convention of the
M.W.I.U. aroused the mass SEN
timent and laid the Organiza-
tiOnaI base for the development
of these struggles. The con-
vention itself, held in New York on
July 1919, not only served to con-
solidate the organization and estab-
lish it's leadership, but the hundred
odd delegates attending worked out
q program of immediate action for
modifying the mass of seamen, long
shoremen and harbor workers for
struggle against the attacks Of the
shipowners. The fact that the ma
jority of delegates attending the con-
vention Immediately returned to their
various ports for every day activity
was one of the main guarantees that
