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

TINE depression must be over in
il New York, according to bridge
statistics.
For the last few years money
players in New York have been
complaining that the games were
too tight, nobody ever took set
of 1000 points or more, and what
fun was there in contract if you
didn't take an opponent for a ride
of 1,400 or more once in while?
One of the boys who was COM
planning the loudest picked Up the
South hand against Dave Burn
slime, who was sitting in the West.
South was vulnerable and decided
he had a nice no trump hand but
he must stop a diamond lead, which
accounts for the opening bid of one
diamond.
Norths bid of two diamonds was
probably bad; a better bid would
have been one spade. Even a pass
would not have been out of order.
After the two diamond bid, South
thought his weak spot was filled
ana tnaUS Wnny ne went 10 UnTee
no trump. North made a second
bad bid by going to four diamonds
and South went to four no trump,
which Mr.. Burntsine in the West
doubled.
MIR. BURNSTINE elected to open
4'A short suit, the jack of hearts,
which South won with the ace.
The king of spades was played
and Mr.. BurnStine refused to win.
When it held, South continued with
the queen and West won with the
ace, returning the seven of hearts,
which South won with the king.
So far declarer had been unsuc-
cessful in getting the opponents to
lead up to him-he had had to do
all the leading from his own hand
Still forcing the opponents to lead,
South then led the five of hearts.
East won the trick with the nine

twelve injections each until the
blood becomes negative. You must
take a blood test after each series
of injections. If your blood does
not improve after two series, then
it would best to take another kind
of treatment. 1t is true that the
malaria treatment has been used in
syphilis. Your doctor was right in
saying that he will cure you Of the
malaria by giving you quinine (not
strychnine, as you wrote). The only
trouble with the malarial treatment
is that the results are not very good
in people over thirty five. For this
reason we are using another
method now, known as the dia-
thermy method. By this method we
can produce an excessive amount of
heat in the body; even higher than
with the malaria method. The
diathermy heat is not as dangerous
as the malarial fever.
We regret that you did not take
care of your condition years ago,
when you could have been cured
much more rapidly and with more
certainty. Whether you take the
diathermy or the malaria treat
ment, you must be sure that your
physician is an expert In this line
of treatment.

they had paid Bloomer. They we're
advised that they would receive their
money back, and thus far a few Of
them have.
It appeared that Boomer was
through, since it was also alleged
he had previously figured in some
shady activity at another office, but
had been given another chance to
redeem himself. But no reckoning
was taken Of the fact that this
worthy was appointed to his posi-
ton by no less a dignitary than the
son Of the associate general man
ager Of this division who is himself
the superintendent Of the district in
which Mr.. Bloomer is employed.
And so, incredible as it may seem,
Mr.. Bloomer is still in the service
and Mr.. C. H Carroll, Jr., the afore-
mentioned superintendent, had the
effrontery to leave him in the same
Office where he had practiced his
little game.
And this serves as a little illustra-
ton of the calibre of some Of the
association Western Union employees
officers. Mr.. Bloomer is the chair
man of the entertainment committee
of this company union. We all ex-
pect to be entertained at the next
meeting, for we feel sure he will be
able to bring forth quarters from
his hat instead Of mere rabbits.

NEW York;. ". Bloomer is
manager of the Western Union office
at 40 East 149th Street. Recently
he was transferred for a period Of
time to another Office. In his place
was assigned another man. It was
pay day and the messengers each
gave the newcomer IS cents which
they explained they paid each week
to the estimable Mr.. Bloomer for
the privilege Of storing their bicycles
in an unused exit Of the building
It was understood that he had ar
ranged with the owner of the build
ing for the messengers to be able
to do so.
When this substitute manager had
received all the quarters he took the
money to the man it was directed
to and proffered it explaining that
Bloomer was away temporarily This
person was astonished and said that
he had never taken money before
for any such purpose. He stated
that he had granted permission for
the messengers to keep their bicycles
there but it was gratuitious.
This had been going on for many
months. All the boys who had work
ed there before or now were asked
10 sign statements as to the money

By Railroad Worker Correspondent
KANSAS CITY, MOI went to
the Kansas City Southern yards to-
day in order to get some information
on the strike that had been post
poned to April 1st. One Of the men
I spoke to works in the round house
and said he was not interested in the
strike because it would not affect
him. He said it only involved the
flremen, engineers, conductors and
brakemen.
1 told him of the need of belong
ing to a railroad industrial union
rather than being divided up into
craft unions. He told me to go to
the beanery run by the Van Noy
Interstate Co. for more information.
Here I got into conversation with
a man about 45 years old who used
to work on the K.CS. as boiler
maker and who fought in the last
world war The Van Noy Interstate
Co. pays him $40 month and food,
for IA and half hours work a day.
There are three more men working
in the beanery IL hours every day.
They used to employ eight men:
now only four. He said he is under
weight and needs medical attention,
but cannot get any bonus allowance
or hospital attention from the COM
pany or the government.

Post Office Places
Biggest Burden
on Negro Workers
(By a Postal Worker Correspondent

(By Postal Worker Correspondent
NEW York; am employed in
Uncle Sans Post Office, where all
workers are supposed to be free and
equal, but what do we find? Dis
elimination of the worst possible
sort. Wherever there is any dirty
work to be done, it is without ex-
ception given to the colored workers.
Whenever there is any hauling of
heavy bags Of mail and packages, it
is mostly done by the colored work
ers.
Fellow workers, it is not the dirty
work or the physical labor that we
mind, but why should the workers
not realize that these workers are
Disseminated against so as to keep
the colored workers apart from the
white workers? To make one class
believe it is different from the other
and keeping them apart, so that in
stead of getting together and show
ing organized strength, we are kept
apart, weakened and unable to bet
ter our miserable conditions.
