Chinch Bugs Present 1885 Problem

IN AGRICULTURE the problems of one year
! carry over so often to the following season.
This is particularly so in the case of the chinch
bug, which this year assumed really serious
proportions and as result promises to be far
more destructive next year.
The bug was present in unusually large num-
bers in many sections of the Middle West,
where it is destructive of corn. Because of
the numbers of the bugs a great carryover to
next year is foreseen.
No single farm practice is a panacea for
ehinch bug trouble. according to DR. p N.

round attention is needed to obtain definite
relief from the bug especially in years like this,
when it has built up huge population.
Spraying or busting, effective against many
insect pests, is not practical in the large fields
over which the chinch bug ranges. Small
grain fields therefore, doomed once they
become heavily infested. All that can then
be done is to build barriers to prevent the
migration of second generation bugs to adjacent

CWA ADVOCATES
READY TO WAGE
SENATE BATTLE
Continuance of Projects

WASHINGTON. Feb. 7.-Advo-
Gates of continuance Of the civil
work administration and the pour
ing Of huge new sums of govern
ment money into this form Of emer-
gency relief we're prepared to wage
a spirited battle on the issue when
it reaches the senate today.
An effort of this kind proved
abortive in the house and collapsed
in the face of overwhelming admin
istration support and imposition of
a rule preventing amendments.
The situation in the senate is
different The bill under considera-
ton passed by the house monday
with only one dissenting vote, is an
appropriation of $950,000.000 for
CWA and relief grants. The adj
ministration plan is to use s450,00O,-
600 of this in gradual demobiliza-
ton of the CWA, ending that part
of the recovery program early in
May.
Senate Independents. believing
that the throwing of some 100000
workers back into the ranks of the
unemployed would seriously handi-
cap all recovery endeavors, plan an
amendment which would appropri-
ate $2,0OO,O0O,O0O for continuance of
the CWA
The amendment would carry
total of $4,000, 100000, leaving intact
the original plan for $500,000,00 for
direct relief work.
The unfinished business in the
senate is the John bill, aimed at
curling the avenues of delay now
open to public utilities in rate cases
through the federal court. How
ever, on the ground Of an emer-
gency necessity, Majority Leader
Joseph Robinson intends to have
this laid aside temporarily so that
the CWA appropriation measure
may be considered.
Senator Robinson said last night
he expected the CWA bill to be
passed in the form favored by the
administration.

1t was useless for West to bid
three hearts-his proper bid was a
jump to four hearts to take the
strain off the hand, as partner had

trumped in with the jack of hearts,
he would have won the trick.
When the hand was played, how
eyer, North trumped with the eight

overtrumped with the ten. She then
led small heart and finessed the

The ace of hearts was led in the
hope that the hearts were split, as
they were.

spade was ruffed in dummy with

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. MKENNEY
Secretarx American Bridge League

secretary american bfluge League
A GREAT deal has been said re-
n garding biddable suits in con-
tract and some authorities have set
fairly high standards for four-card
biddable suits.
However, in modern contract we
find it very difficult to adhere to
any particular rule governing bid
dable suits. What you should try to
Go is to find a fit with your partner.
An example OF how this was &C
compliShed is given in today's hand,
played by Mrs. A. c. Hoffmeier of
Cleveland, newly elected president
of the women's auxiliary of the
American Bridge League.
Vests negative double over the
bid Of one club informed his part
ner that he held support in hearts
or spades, or had side suit strong
enough to permit him to play the
hand at two.
Mrs. Hoffmeier in the East first
responded with her five-card spade
suit. Then, when her partner passed,
she knew that the hands did not fit
as yet. so she decided to try the
other major-and We find bid be-
ing made on a weak four-carder
simply in the hope of finding a fit
in the hand. But since they are
