election of Senator Overton of Louisi-
ana langtlish for months including the
investigation Of the activities of Sem
ator Huey Long and his political organ
iZation in that State, the Senate Cam
paign Investigating Committee is at last
at work in New Orleans. Nor does 1t
seem likely that the investigation can
be halted now. The bloW-up by John
Holland. investigator for the committee
Who openly charged at the beginning
OF the present hearing the committee
was intent on whitewashing Overton
and Long, has certainly put the COM

Vestigator for Senate committees, in
Guiding the Teapot Dome investigation
and the Lobby Committee investigation
Is something the committee has to con-

the investigation would have to Le
pushed to the limit.
Il X
The argument has been advanced
the the Republicans in the Senate are
not interested in the unseating of Huey
Long. believing that he is an asset to
the Republican party and a thorn in
the side of the Democrats.
The Democrats from the South, it is
also argued. are not anxious to have
the Senate go too thoroughly into the
operation Of Democratic primaries,
which in that section Of the country
are tantamount to election. However,
the stencil that is arising from Louis
iana seems to have blown the lid off. 1t
is known that had the late Senator

Vern snatched them from his friend

yacht.
Yes, it was Irene in "Dummy's" arms.
She seemed to be limp and helpless. He
wondered if she was unconscious or
merely bound in some way. Dummy"
carried her forward to the mainmast.
The sail was not hoisted, so the spar
was bare. Dummy stood her up
braced against the mast and then, with
the main-sheet, lashed her in that posi-
ton.
Why?
1t was five minutes before vern
gathered the full import of what had
happened.

"Dummys" scheme had been good
one. He knew well that his pursuers
would not pay any attention to him SO
long as Irene was in the danger which
he had framed up for her. With the
yacht on fire beneath her 1t was only
matter of short time until the
flames would reach the gasoline tank
and blow her to destruction. He had
gambled on the probability that they
would try to save her and had doubtless
figured that by the time they returned
to look for him he could row ashore
and disappear.

rebid. consider the hand too weak
Tor this purpose because at this mo-
ment there is still possibility of q
mlsfit-even in no trumpS-especially
as the cluhs-now almost sure to be
led-are only stopped once. While it
Is true that one could hold less and
still bid a no trump on the second
round, 1t Is also true that with sub
stantially less in the hand one should
not open the bidding at all in first or
second position. The hand Is entirely
defensive in type; consequently with
less than three primary tricks only a
pass could be considered in these posi-
tions.
Judging Hands by Their Type.
These facts are known to the part
ner. consequently when by the rebid of
a no trump you proclaim a defensive
hand you also reassure him regarding
your three or more primary tricks. 1t
IS now up. to him to give definite
trend to the bidding. In yesterdays
article we discussed the outlook If he
were able to make another bid in the
form Of either two spades, which would
lead you to bid two no trumps, in reply
10 which highly invitational bid on
your part he should either go three no
trumps or if very weak except for long
spades, sign of by bidding three spades.
Reluctantly you would have to pass
this declaration. The clubs are a dan
ger spot and it looks as if you may
never be able to use his spades if you
play in no trumps. With nearly solid

INSTALLMENT XXXIX.

7 T was nearly dawn by the time they
sighted the inlet. There was plenty
of light so that they could make
i out that a considerable sea was
rushing through between the two
points of land Just inside the shelter
stood the yacht Wings.
Il thought she might wait there"
said Vern. "It was really our only
chance"
But she is beginning to move now, "
said the captain. They were still 3
or miles away and the captain was
using the glass.
DO you think they have seen U.s.
Vern questioned.
mo. not necessarily replied Capt.
Caulheld. The chances are that this
chap Squales has been waiting for the
tide to turn. When the tide starts ebb-
ing it will be easier to 60 with it. They
would not have much chance any other
way. The tide Just turned less than
halt an hour ago
Sure enough, the yacht headed
straight for the inlet Vern prayed
that she would get through safely.
Before the tug arrived at the narrow
passage Wings was well out to sea,
pitching violently in a cross trough
controlled half by the wind and half
by the tide.
The yacht had an advantage of 4
or 5 miles start but the tug had more
ditions could make better time.
The yacht, if skillfully handled. as
Irene could do it, could probably go
a little faster in the kind of sea
that was running. But, fortunately,
Irene was not at the wheel. Instead
it was Dummy and while he was a
good sailor, he did not know the boat
so well as did the girl skipper and The
space between the two crafts began to
close up.
At the end OF a couple of hours run
ming the tug had decreased the lead
to about miles and there was no
question in the mind of the helmsman
on the yacht that he was being pursued.
Through the glasses they could see that
he kept glancing back at the tug and
once he lashed the wheel and went
down into the engine room. doubtless
to see if he could increase the pace.
But he had little luck and before
which favored the tug. and they were
almost within hailing distance.
Dummy apparently guessed that
the game was up at last, SO far as
escaping that way was concerned.
But Vern knew his enemy well enough
not to gloat until the victory was en-
tirely in his hands. What's that bird
up to now?" he inquired of Dodd, who
had the glasses for the moment
HE has left the wheel, lashed 1t
again, suppose, and has descended the
companionway Here he comes back
He is carrying something. I guess its

Here, let me take those glasses"

Conquering Contract
.By P. HAL SIMS

king or queen, 10 and an outside trick,
he should have bid four spades over
your two no trumps. This late jump
after your first Mgn-od would not be
IN any way a slam try, but merely
strain taker' to avoid putting you to
any further problem.
Easiest Roite.
Had your partner bid two no trumps
over your rebid Of one no trump, you
next bid three no trumps without any
or five odd. Let us consider some other
responses and what they will produce.
Erasing the Sign-Of.
The bidding having been-one heart
by you, one spade, one no trump, let
us assume your partner now bids two
hearts. Bid two no trunps, leaving it
to him whether to bid three no trumps
or three hearts, depending on his dis
tribution. Assured Of fit and each
knowing the other has four hearts there
Is no question of stopping short of game.
A forcing jump bid would be a slam
try; it would be inadvisable to Jump his
two hearts to four unless you had three
aces in the hand, spade honor as
good as the queen and four primary
tricks In all. For game purposes your
rebid to two no trumps Is a force in
everything but name.
Inviting Slam After Signing on.
your no trump rebid, Is two clubs
would bid three no trumps-a slam try.
The fit Is there in no trumps; this jump
after previous sign-of shows at least
one high club honor. II his spades are
as good as A @ 9 x, his clubs are K
@ or K j X Cor vice VerSa),
and he has either the king Of hearts
very important key card or some
thing like @ 10 in diamonds he can
accept the slam try either by bidding
four no trumps or by rebidding one Of
his suits if his length In it and his
general distribution seem to invite suit
play in preference to no trumps for
slam purposes. OF course. he must de-
cline the slam try unless his hand in
cludes an ace, as your bidding seems
to disclaim three aces.
Extremely Revelatory Raise.
If his second bid were two diamonds
over your no trump rebid, reply with
three diamonds. This tells him to 60
three no trumps If he has a possible
the hand may deliver five diamonds.
Having bid two suits and knowing you
have defensive type hand. your part
ner must have an abnornally feeble
hand not to be able to make another
bid-three no trumps three spades or
four diamonds. In the next few ar.
ticles we will discuss his rebidding.
Jump Response Leads to Slam.
If over your no trump rebid your
partner jumped to three spades. three
clubs or three diamonds. now a slam
is sure. possibly a grand slam He must
have an ace, probably two, a long.
strong suit or powerful two-suit, and
almost surely < XXX In hearts.
