"Today enjoyed the first meal in two months without suffering afterwards, and it sure is grand feeling to be able to sit down and eat meat, vegetables and fruit without being filled up with sour gas or feeling all puffed up." de- clared MT Tom Siconolf of Clar- mont Ave-, Waterbury, who is em- ployed at the International Silver co. and is also well known as the popular drummer in the Connecti- cut Varsity Stars Orchestra.
 q have been denying myself eating many things because I found they disagreed with my stomach, formed gas, gave a heavy feeling in my chest and felt like a lump rising in my throat. I've taken only two bottles of Vendo1 but it is simply marvellous the way it has eased my stomach.
 "I'm glad to recommend such fine medicine as Vendol and hope every man and woman in Water bury who has stomach trouble will take 1t for know they will be benefited. Thank you."
 Thank you. MT Siconolfi. We

Joint Concert
 Is Presented
Large Audience Hears Beth Fl Choir and the Little
 Symphony Orchestra

A large and appreciative audi ence attended the joint concert of the Beth Fl choir and the Little Symphony orchestra which was presented last evening at the Beth Fl synagog.
 Guest artists were Miss Adla AL exander, pianist, and Miss Audrey Marsh, operatic soprano. Joseph B. Zellman was in charge of the choir, which was augmented by several voices, and the orchestra was conducted by William A. Tins ley.
 The .choir sang Lewandowsky's "Halleluia," two lighter numbers and a traditional Jewish melody called "Uvashofar Godo." The or chestra presented several interest ing compositions, including Debus- sy's "Reverie" which was well re- ceived. Perhaps the most appre- ciated number on the program was the last in which the choir and or chestra joined and in which Flor ence G. Rosengarten sang an incl dental solo. The audience also liked Miss Alexander's playing, with the orchestra of the Grieg Concerto in A minor. Miss Alex ander proved to be as capable with the difficult concerto as with the two numbers she played as solos. The orchestra drew enthusiastic applause for its playing of two dances from Smetana's opera, "The Bartered Bride" One number was added to the program by request, the Volga boatmen song which has been sung on several other occa- sions by the Beth Fl chorus. Miss Marsh, who is the daughter of MT Zellman, sang the solo "Je- Veux, Vivre' from the opera "Ro- meo and Juliet" by Gounod. She was accompanied by her sister. Rose Zellman at the piano. Miss Marsh who has appeared in many concert programs, displayed her fo lonf in ticfyinor nT1nr

Solution to Previous Contract
 Problem

When you get a bad break in trump and have lost the first trick, playing the hand at small slam contract, you have only one weap- on to fall back on, and that is the squeeze play. Such was the situa- tion which faced Stanley Reilly of Chicago, who will captain the team representing the Auction Bridge club of Chicago. the first western team to particular in the Wander biIt cup tournament since it was held last in the west. At that time the cup. was won by the Chicago team.
 North's bid of three spades asked South either to be bid four spades or three no trump, and when South responded with four clubs this was a mild slam try.
 North immediately realized that South's club suit must be solid, otherwise he would not attempt to show it on the second round of bidding. If that was the case, the dam was quite probable. Vests opening lead of seven of Hnearts gent to East's ace. while North played low. East returned fhe eight of clubs. which was won <n dummy with the Jack.

FRANCE DESTROYS
OF LAW AND ORDER
Feeling Held Growing Within
Nation as U. S. Experiment
Is Watched.
BY PAUL SCOTT MowRER,

RAUL oOOAA MOWhEH.
BY Cable to The Star.
PARIS. France, July 20.-A desire
for order and authority" is seemingly
growing in France. It Is especially
noteworthy among the lower middle
classes. or what the French call the
petite bourgeoisie."
Former Premier Andre Tardieu and
former Finance Minister Pierre Etienne
Flandin, on the right, are known to
have Fascist leanings. A young ener-
getlc element within the old interna-
tional French Socialist party is going
strongly National-Socialist.
And as this background develops the
French are watching the American ex-
pertinent with increasing attention.
Some assert that what President Roose-
velt Is heading for is state socialism.
Others insist it is Fascism
Former Premier Edouard Herriot in
today's issue of the newspaper LIRE
Nouvelle explains that it Is neither.
The new American system, according
to Herriot, is neither German Hitlerism
nor Italian Fascism nor Spanish au-
thoritative Socialism, but a managed
economy based on cooperation and the
will OF the people as expressed through
IAiClh uuAy ClCCCCu Representatives.
From the French viewpoint, Herriot
thinks the American experiment much
more interesting than the others be-
cause ''it does not abolish the demo-
cratic idea. It is free from all mill
tarism. 1t does not infringe on the
rights Of the workers" .....
Consequently, he concludes that the
American managed economy is neither
Fascism nor collectivism," but a new
form of democracy.

ana then started looking tor something to put
1t in. She had. she realized dismally, no very
clear idea OF what that thing should look like.
The coffee she had known came at breakfast
In copper urn with blue flame under It, or
on her tray in . squat Wedgewood affair, or
after dinner In o slender silver pot, or on
picnics in thermos bottles But what was it
cooked in? With bitter humiliation she knew
she would have to ask.
She uptoed to the foot of the stairs and
listened. There was no sound from above.
Then she saw him from the window He was
striding up the path and sleA wondered, hope
lessly. how she had ever dared think that he
would love her.
She opened the door.
He looked up and grinned. GOOD morning!"
Good morning" She hesitated would
you," she gulped, please tell me what to cook
coffee IMP"
DO you mean to say that you don't know?"
There was nothing but complete amazement in
his voice.
She shook her head. I'm sorry"
"You cook it In percolator." he said gently.
"Its thing with a glass top You'll find it
in the under part Of the kitchen cupboard"
She went to the cupboard and found it. It
looked vaguely familiar. and blindly guessing
at the relationship between dry coffee and
water she set the thing on the stove.
He walked into the next room and closed
the door. Very shortly she heard the rapid
click Of his typewriter She sat on a hard
little chair with her knees hunched up and
stared steadily at the percolator.
She remembered now that coffee should
"perk." That meant a little noise A car
"perked" when the motor was running. She
went to the stove and listened. Perhaps the
fire wasn't right. She took of the lid and
looked into a mass OF pinkish-gray ashes.
When she had built up the fire again she
went back to the chair and resumed her vigil.
II the coffee didn't perk soon, she was fail
ure. She could hear the steady click Of the
typewriter in the next room and, remembering,
glanced at her watch. It was 10 minutes past
O'Clock and he had not said a word about
breakfast She recalled with a tightening of
her throat his gentleness about the percolator,
the quiet way his hand touched the dog, the
steadiness Of his eyes. "Oh, God" she sobbed

Court Bars Worms

THE old theory that what one doesn't know
won't hurt, the excuse under which un-
scrupulous individuals have defrauded the tm-
suspecting, doesn't 60 far in the Federal courts.
Recently the Food and Drug Administration
seized $50 cases Of raw and smoked tullbees
which were found to be wormy. The packers.
q Canadian firm. attempted to secure the re-
lease Of the shipment on the ground that the
long. white thread Like worms present In some
quantity would not be noticed by the 'pur-
chaser and would in no wise affect the flavor
Of the fish. The Federal officials, however,
declined to agree with such an argument and
insisted that the presence of the worms rend-
cred the fish unfit for food.
The court concurred in this view declaring,
"the fact that most consumers would not dis
cover the worms and would therefore not have
their senses affronted Is Of no consequence
because, were it otherwise. the statute would
not be needed. The statute is largely intended
to protect those consumers VINO would not
be in q position to observe a defect in the
TODD"
Needless to say. the shipment was destroyed.
Altogether In February Federal inspectors
seized SO shipments of various foods and drugs
found to be adulterated or misbranded. =
