 Honors Betty Price

Miss Charlotte Elton will enter tain at a dinner at her home on Church street this evening in com pliment to Miss Betty Price. daughter of MT. and Mrs William B. Price of Euclid avenue and Charles Chauncey Goodrich, son of Dr and Mrs Charles Goodrich of Hartford who are to be married tomorrow afternoon at 4:SO o'clock at All Souls church. Members of the bridal party will attend the dinner and dancing will follow for 8 number of the members of the younger set.
 Miss Mary Elizabeth Conroy. a native of Queenstown, Ireland, will have the distinction tomorrow of having served in the same family for a period of 50 years. Miss Con- roy came to this country, when she was but IT years of age, for a visit. Contrary to her previous plans she did not return to Ireland as ex- pected but remained in this coun- try where sine wss engS ged to work for the White family on Grand street. For many years she was the family servant in the Jacob Wat son White family and in later years she entered the service of Misses Anna and Mary White of Second avenue. The latter died just last Saturday thus preventing the com- pletion of plans to render the faith full servant an anniversary tea to be held tomorrow. Of course her death changes the plans but all Miss Conroy's friends are taking the opportunity to congratulate her on her marvellous record of fidelity.
 The wedding of Richard Baxter of Church street, Naugatuck. and Miss Frances Fuller of Hartford will take place tomorrow after noon at o'clock at the Imman- uet Lutheran church in Hartford.

CONTRACT BRIDGE
Chess Tactics In Bridge-Giving Up Trick To Gain Two Later Is The Kind Of Strategy Used
 In fOBth Games
BY VIM. k. MCKINNEY Secretary of the American Bridge League

Bridge players and chess play CTS have argued for a long time as to which is the more scientific game. As there are more bridge players than chess players, I am inclined to give the decision to the game of bridge.
 There are several chess tactics that can be well applied to bridge. Chess players would not hesitate to give up pawn to secure an advantageous position which sev- eral moves later might gain a rock or a knight. So i: is in bridge. It often pays to give up trick to gain 8 good position or trick or two later on.

The de- cIarer could ruff two clubs and East's ace would fall. establish ing the king and queen, but he still would lose three tricks. The declarer reasoned that by giving the opponents a trick immediately he could save a trick. so he re- turned the king of clubs and re- fused to trump, discarding one of the losing diamonds.

 As East was marked with the queen of diamonds, the declarer played small diamond from dummy and ruffed with the two of hearts. A spade was deturned and ruffed with the king of hearts.

PLAN CHRISTMAS

Christmas in Every Home" i S
again being planned for by the Hamil-
ton Chamber of Commerce. This will
be the fifteenth consecutive year the
plan is carried out in Hamilton and,
conceived by John E. Northway, Sec
retary of the Chamber of Commerce,
no doubt it will continue an annual
event as long as the popular official
is on the local job.
President of the chamber, Alexan-
der Thomson, said Monday:
"The directors believe again this
year, with conditions that still exist,
it is more important than ever that
the plan be carried out. 1t is our
hope that no home in Hamilton where
there is child or there are children,
will be lacking of the spirit of the
season.
Chairman Thomson will name var
ious committees in the near future
to have charge of the annual move
ment.

" Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
fOundly, sometimes hippantly,
sometimes recklessly.

The late Vice President Tom Mar
shall was witty but not correct. What
the county needs most is not his fa-
nous good five-cent cigar, but six
or eight or ten million more dairy
cows, and enough income for all peo-
pie to buy the milk which they and
their children need.
Experts agree that the right diet
would include one quart of milk daily
for each child, and one pint for each
adult. In the general population, this
works out at bit less than 1h pints
per person each day.
The milk survey of the three AS
has covered SO cities in 46 states, and
not once has it found a community
where the use of milk even approaches
that level. The north uses more milk
than the south; white families use
more than colored; but the biggest
single factor seems to be size of in
come In industrial towns, with low
paid workers, the use of milk drops
to the neighborhood of the vanishing
point.
In Birmingham, Alabama, in 337
representative families studied, each
person got 4/10 of a pint Of milk
day.
In Globe, Arizona, smelter town,
people got just little over $40 of
a pint each day. Over 38 per cent
of the families studied bought no fresh
milk at all.
In Butte, Montana, a copper mining
town, people used 44/100 of pint Of
milk each per day.
In Pueblo, Colorado, with it's steel
works, and in Winston-Salem, North
Carolina, with it's textile mills, the
average use of milk is little less than
$40 of a pint day. In West Vir-
ginia, Wheeling and Clarksburg get
half a pint of milk each day for each
resident, but Charleston is content
with 4/10.

gets 6/10 of a pint for each of its
people; which is as we'll as Wichita
Kansas, does, right out in the farming
belt, while Des Moines, in the heart
of Iowa, runs a little under a hall
pint. In California, San Francisco
with 6/10 Of pint per person, stands
higher than Los Angeles, with not
quite half a pint, but the altitude is
not spacious.
Charleston, S. c., has the lowest
use Of milk Of any city studied, but
it would not be fair to quite this with
out explanation. 1t is the only south
ern city which included colored fam
lilies in the survey. Of the 367 famil-
les studied in Charleston, 165 were
colored, and 100 of these reported
buying no milk at all. The average
for the whole group, white and color
ed, was 1/10 Of pint each per day.
More cows, better wages to enable
people to buy milk, and more train
ing in the value of milk as a food.
The country needs all these, in almost
limitless measure.
The Associated Press reports that
in Rome, Georgia, the National
Guard, armed with bayonets and
machine guns, "broke the strike" in
the foundries. And not by word, look
or punctuation mark does the Associat-
ed Press indicate that it has any idea
of the amazing tale that it is telling.
National Guardsmen have no more
business to break strikes than they
have to break rocks, or faro banks.
Their sole business is to keep order.
Keeping order in an orderly manner
does not break strike. 1t takes CO.
ercion, moral or physical, to do that;
it takes force or the very present
show and threat of force.
By what right does any state put
its military power at the service of
one side in an industrial dispute?

Workers Accept Roosevelt
Truce on Trial

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-In a
letter to President Roosevelt, the
United Textile Workers of America
formally agreed for a period of six
months to the presidents proposed
truce in industry During the trial
period, the union agreed to accept the
findings of the National Textile Labor
Relations Board and the National La
Dor Relations Board The letter was
signed by Francis ]. German, first vice
president and chairman Of the unions
organizing committee.
ut is our hope that textile manufac.
turers will agree to like terms in order
that there may be peace in the textile
industry and full use of the machin-
cry created for that purpose in har-
mony with truly democratic American
principles" the letter said.
After referring to the terms of the
presidents proposal, German wrote:
II am empowered to say to you that
the United Textile Workers of Amer
lea accept your proposal. You did
not set period, but we are prepared
to enter into such a truce for six
months, in the hope that it may be
extended and that we may work rapid
ly toward permanent peace with the
use Of democratic methods in this
industry.
"As we read your proposal you feel
that such truce is possible because
machinery for peaceful settlement of
disputes has been created. That, it
seems to US, predicates peace upon
the use Of these peaceful methods of
adjudication. There is a requirement,
clearly implied if not specifically stat
