Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. ATKENNEY

Secretary American Bridge League
Z VERY bridge player is familiar
l. with the fact that when he has
losing cards Of a suit. he must try
to establish some other suit on
which to discard these losers, if they
can not be ruffed Off
While some exceptionally fine
plays are made TO establish these
side suits, they really are not I'M
usual The unusual is the discard
of a losing card on a trump, and
that is the play brought out in to-
days hand.
John H. Law Of Cleveland, one Of
the outstanding contract players Of
the middle west, received top score
on this board, making five-odd by

VXTEST opened the king Of

South, trumped with the four of
hearts. He then led small heart
and won in dummy with the jack.
His next play was a small diamond,
hnessing the jack from his own
hand and West winning with the
I ace.
1t still looked as though Mr. Law
would have to lose a diamond trick
West continued with the queen of

Mr. Law then led the five of
clubs. West went in with the jack

He trumped with the ace Of
spades and then led with the ten

the queen.
The king of hearts then was
played and on this Mr.. Law dis

Now, as the club suit broke, he had
the rest of the tricks.

ever, the final contract undoubtedly
would be the same.

man was to be continuously em- ployed; and also that some organization be designated to employ men who are reason ably suitable to the objectives of the CWA program and to prescribe the number of work hours of employment within the thlrty-hour week provision. As a result of the latter pro- vision, MT. Green is personally directing the river work, giv- ing his time and services with out charge, and is being assist ed in other details by Collector of Customs J. L. Abrams and U. s. Commissioner Chas. F. Sandford, who represents the district court and Territory in local indigent relief matters; the three constituting the re- quired organization.
 Pursuant to the instructions, MT. Green placed four men at work on the lower river chan nel, clearing away accumulat- ed log and brush jams which if not removed will ultimately block the channel, causing a diversion of the stream which will endanger the town in high water periods.
 The work is being divided as far as possible among those who have been subsisting wholly on government relief and others who by reason of non-employment on earlier government projects are in imminent need of assistance.
 Through the representations of MT. Green that powder was needed to remove stumps and other Instructions in the river. a quantity of stumping powder caps and fuse has been allotted for the work and is expected shortly from Ketchikan.

 Providentially awakened by the smoke, Jack Fitzgerald, we'll known mining man, was able to extinguish the blaze before it gained too great head way.

CHICAGO, July 81 G.N.s).
Police intensified their war

Stanley Dittler, scurried from

head and pulled the trigger twice.
One assassin fired at the flee
ing Dittler, but missed.
Carr and his brother, John

Denial that the movie strike had
ended was made today in an
official statement by union labor
officials.
Hope Of settlement, which
loomed earlier when $500 EN-.
ployes agreed to return to work,
abruptly vanished when their
leaders, representatives Of the five
striking unions, emerged from an
a1-night conference with the fol-
lowing statement:
"The strike continues in full
effect until q fair and satisfac-
tory settlement has been
reached"
This again threw the situa.

lematical the return to work Of

REGIONAL DIRECTORS SPEED UP PUBLIC WORKS PROG
Effect of Code
On Union Paw
POndered
BY international News Service


One Of the first Of the many
knotty questions to arise under
application OF the blanket in
duStrial code was pushed into
the limelight today by William
Green's assertion that the code
provides q shorter work week
at the same pay for those en-
ployers who have contracts with
union labor.
The American Federation Of
Labor head declared the volun-
tary code to be simple and ex-
plicit. He said:
ct was never intended to be
q device for reducing wages.
The primary purpose Of the act
is to reduce unemployment and
increase wages. If a reduction
in the number Of hours worked
by employees in any line Of in
dustry is brought about under
the operation Of the blanket
code, the wages paid for the re-
duced number Of hours must
be as great as those under the
longer hours worked"
The Recovery Administration
was silent on Green's interpre-
tation Of the code, officials
stating that it is one Of the
questions that will have to be
decided. The matter is now in
the hands of the legal staff.
