Secretary American Bridge Leagu,

A T the recent Sims teachers con-
IA vention, held at Deal, N. j., the
following unusual squeeze play
came up in one of the duplicate
game:
I was playing at the time against
P. H. Sims, who was sitting in the
South and passed. I was in the
West and passed. MIR. Sims partner
in the North opened the bidding
with one club.
While Norths hand is not What
you would term strong, it has sufh-
Gent strength to make a protective
third-hand bid. East passed and
Mr.. Sims now bid two no trump. His
partner carried him to three no
trump
My opening lead was the ten of
hearts, which Mr.. Sims won with
the ace. He then led a small dia-
mond, which he won in dummy with
the queen, and then returned the
deuce of diamonds, playing the jack
from his own hand.
I won the trick with the ace and
returned the nine of hearts. but
M. Sims went right up with the
queen in dummy, and then returned
the seven of diamonds.
East echoed in clubs, dropping the
eight. MIR. Sims won the trick with
the king and returned the four of
diamonds. I discarded the deuce of
spades, and the trick was won with
dummy'S nine, East discarding a
spade.
MIR. SIMS now realized that his

was to develop squeeze. He had

TORN
On WILD RIDE

Not only was the wild ride Of
Harry Brown, colored, of the 700
block Morton st. N. w., hair-rais-
ing, but trouser tearing as well,
according to Montgomery county
police at Bethesda, Md.
Policeman Windsor Poole
stopped Junious jenkins, also col
ored, taxi driver, of 1000 block
Ninth st. N. w., by pulling in
front of his car when he noticed
Browns car heading toward
them. The policeman cried:
Lookout"
Jenkins, thinking the rear Of
his car would be struck, jumped
out on the right side.
Instead of passing on the left,
Brown went around the right OF
the cab and came so close to
jenkins that his car tore the
lower part of his trouser leg off
and narrowly missed Poole.
Telling jenkins to follow him to
the police station, Poole set out
after Brown and caught him
after a three-mile chase in Be.

exceeding so miles an hour and
reckless driving and placed under
$500 bond for his appearance

HAYDEN, '|NOLEY.
TALK SILVER

Administration support of q
movement to permit President
Roosevelt to accept $250,000,00
in silver in payment of foreign
debts was sought today by Sena-
tor Hayden CD of Arizona.
Hayden conferred with Assist
ant Secretary of State Moley on
the matter. He declared such ac-
ton would enable the United
States to remove the surplus sill
yer from the European market
and pave the way for Stabiliza-
ton of the metal at a fair price.
The Administration is sponsor
ing a measure to permit the
President to accept $1O0, 200, 900
in silver in payment of the debts.
Hayden has proposed the amount
be increased to $3.50, 100000. He
declined to state what Moley
thought of the proposal except
to say the latter made no prom
iSeS.
The increase to $25O,OOO, 900
would permit all debtor nations
to pay all of the June Is, pay
ments and the deferred Decem-
ber payments in silver.
Hayden said the 100000. 900
proposal alone would enable this
Government to remove, sufficient
OF the silver surplus in the old
world to permit effective stabili-
zation of the metal but he felt
it only fair the other nations
likewise be permitted to pay in
silver.

Don't let them! Don't let

Oddly enough, most of the

You long to cry-"But can't
you see that I didn't mean to
do wrong. Can't you under
stand that I really wanted to
do a fine thing, even though
it was unuSual?"
But no one will listen. Their
sneers jam the words down
your throat. You grow furious
at the injustice.
Presently you find yourself
despising your mistake as much
as they despiSe it. You VOW
you'll never try to do a decent
thing again.
And so that act, which might
have made you a stronger,
prouder person-eVen though it
failed-becomes a hidden humil-
iation, Gripping your progress.
STOP 1T! Stop being sorry
because you dared to rebel,
dared to experiment. Stop be-
ing bitter because you fell short
of your dreams.

All right: face that fact, too,
and profit by it.
If there's cuSSednesS in you,
the worst thing you can pos
Sibly do is to try and hide it or
ignore it. Drag it out! Look it
over! Measure the extent of

the menace of any adversary.
Face it and lick it! Nine times
out of ten, you'll find that even
your worst cuSSedness is simply
based on fear. Face fear. and
it will vanish.
Face everything in yourself
good or bad. flattering or hui
initiating. Face everything in
yourself and respect everything
in yourself. Say to yoursely-
'I've made a mess of things.
But I didn't mean to make a
mess of things. I was honestly
trying to do something bigger

Necessary We
Move Rapidly

With many disturbing
elements in Europe threat
ening war, it is necessary
that we move rapidly in
putting our domestic house
in order. No doubt a SEN
sational turn is being given
the events across the sea.
But it is nonsense to deny
that things have happened
recently that do not make
for a sense of security.
Within the week the Ger
man republic has ceased to
be. Even Hindenburg has
ordered it's flag from the
breeze: Instead the flags
of the monarchy and the
Fascists become the German
banner. just what this de-
notes no one but those who
are in control there knows.
But the effect has been
to create a fear of war in
France and other countries,
and we may be sure that
Ramsay MacDonald's visit
to Mussolini is not discon-
nected from this fear.
