A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK
BY HERBERT PLUMNER-

now on relief rolls throughout the
country, the far-reaching effect OF the
administration..s move may be seen
easily. ..
The President himself described It
as "a direct blow at the economic
paradox which has choked farms with
an abundance while many OF the un-
employed have gone hungry"
Political observers agree, but go q
step further. They regard 1t as 9
blending of idealism and political
strategy.
Someone, before long, If he is not
already about the task, will compile
glossary Of new terms and expressions
which have come into being since the
beginning Of the new deal"
One hears, for example, much talk
around N. r. A. headquarters about
something described as the "optimum
price"
It means, investigation revealed, the
increasing of wages with q reduction
of working hours to the point, but only
to the point, which will permit Q price
at which people can still afford to buy
products.
The striking of that balance Is the
great goal Of the N. R. A.

Conquering Contract
-By P. HAL SIMS

terday illustrates this aspect Of our
bidding very effectively. The bidding
has been opened by dealer or second
hand with one in suit. His partner
bids a one-over-one, and opener now
bids a no trump. A agnon, as we all
know, but nevertheless Q stgnoh which
NAV be only temporary. II responder's
second bid Is favorable, the opener.
after first signing of, may even be
able to make q slam try when he bids
for the third time. Responder can
accept 1t with q relatively weak hand.
and il he does accept it they a,e going
to have at least o finesse or choice OF
illnesses to make their slam.

The opening bids are q heart and a

opener now bids q no trump. Two nc
trumps would not be q justifiable bid
because the first hand has only one club
stopper, and that suit Is almost sure
to be opened. There may be two aces
to knock out before the play can be
developed In the main suits. Hand co.
Is too weak in diamonds to permit two
no trumps as the rebid. The right re-
bid In each case Is one no trump. II
partner must pass 1t, you are surely IN
the right declaration.
II Second Bid Is Two Spades.
With hand (a) bid two no trumps
hoping that with this encouragement he
can take you to three no trumps. Il
he rebids to three spades, heed his
warning and pass. With hand (b) you
must pass two spades.
II Two No Trumps.
Raise to three with either Of these
hands. With hand (a) you might
think that you should invite slam by
bidding four no trumps. This, how
ever, would not be right. AZ you have
not enough values in excess OF what
your bidding has already promised. ANY
slam development must now come, II at
all, from your partner, and you can
then cooperate actively in 1t He
should not overrate your hand. as with
a trifle more-say. K @ 9 K In diamonds
would have been two diamonds or two
no trumps, respectively. As 1t Is, you
really have a trifle In reserve should
your partner bid beyond three no
trumps, making q slam try despite your
first minimum rebid Of one no trump.
