Duck Stamp Sales to.
Be Used to Save Them

"More wild ducks are killed in
certain areas in the west by botu-
lism, or wild duck sickness, than
by the guns of sportsmen," accord
ing to George Van Vleet, instructor
in game management here. This
great loss has led, in turn, to fed
eral restriction on the number of
ducks hunter may kill during the
season.
The factors bringing about this
duck sickness are: fluctuating wa
ter level, high temperatures, and
excess alkalinity. "The fact that
man has greatly altered the origi-
nal habitat of ducks has brought
about this condition." Mr.. Van
Vleet pointed out. Such alterations
include drainage operations, dam
ing streams and encroachment of
agriculture on primative condi-
lions.
The sale of duck stamps, which
must be affixed to state or county
game licenses, is to provide funds
for the establishment of water
fowl refugees, most of which will
be at points of duck concentration.

Federal Emergency Administra-
ton of Public Works for immed-
late ALLEGATION of funds to the
amount of $40O,000.O0 for open

Washington as recommended and
approved by the Board of Army
Engineers under date of June 5,
1888 in House Document No. 16,

read.
This is very important piece CT
work in the program of develop
ing the Columbia and Snake rivers
for navigation. The Columbia riv-
er is now in very favorable stage.
In fact theenginners report in one
of the most favorable stages of re-
cent years. Due to the character
of the work that this Improvement
involves it can only be carried on
during such favorable stages. I'm
less the money is granted this fall
it will probably be 1886 before any
work can be started in this con-
nection.

send wire to the president and to
Hon. Ickes.

cided to enter the gavel contest

OF no trumpS,
naturally at the same level as your
response. he Is doing only one thing
asking you to tell him whether or
not you have second ace. Having
no other ace to show you inform him
of this fact by taking him back to his
opening suit, regardless of whether
or not you have any support in it.
Even with a void in his suit you
must take him back to it as this is
your way Of denying possession of a
second ace. Plainly the opening bid
der must not drive you to deny any
ace by taking him back to his suit at
a level which he is not sure Of max
ing. Usually the first ace you have
shown eliminates a loser from his
hand and so makes the hand as safe
as it was originally at four. However,
there is one situation in which the
ranking of the suits creates a diff
Guilty, in conjunction with an imme-
diate Duplication.
sp.-A K @ Jxxx pi.-Q J 10 9
The bid is three spades. Partner
says four hearts. Now the opener is
up against the one situation where the
three-bid has kind of a blind spot
If he bids four no trumps, gambling on
your having another ace, he is endan-
gering the hand because it will not
make five spades If you lack a sec
ond ace unless you have precisely the
king Of diamonds, a card for which
he cannot afford to probe on account
of exactly the same reason.
Leaving 1t Up to Responder.
He must, therefore, bid four spades,
a sign-of at game. and under this
bidding sequence scope is left to the
responder to make a further move if
he has another ace to show. He
Evening star., 1934-02-25

should, therefore, bid five In whichever
minor suit he holds the ace, and
realize that opener had not given him
this opportunity in the conventional
manner by bid of four no trumps,
because the first ace shown was q
complete duplication, so that its
possession did not make the hand
as safe at five as it was originally
at four. When responder has two
aces he may always assume that
both Of them cannot be q duplica-
ton. You see that II responder had
been able to bid an ace which elm
mated a loser, the hand would i'm
mediately be safe at five sAdes.
If the first response were four clubs,
opener knows the ace Of diamonds
is against them, but the hand Is safe
at five spades. He would now call
for the king of diamonds by bidding
four diamonds. Lacking that card,
responder bids four spades, which
opener passes as there are now two
diamond tricks to be lost. Holding
that king, responder bids five dia-
monds and opener now bids six
spades, which is exactly the right
place to play. Should responder's first
response be four diamonds, showing
the ace, opener bids four no trumps
to give responder the chance to show
also the ace Of clubs. If he has II, he
bids five clubs. Opener now bids
five diamonds. calling for the king
Of diamonds. II responder shows it
by raise to six diamonds, the opener
bids seven spades. If he denies It,
opener can either decide on the safe
small slam in spades or gamble, If
he cares to, on q f1nesse against the
king OF diamonds for seven. This de-
cision is not matter of system, but
OF "how you feel" The system has
told you that this one card is against
you; you must decide for yourself
whether or not to take an even
chance gamble. If the bidding went
three spades, three no trumps, now
opener knows there Is nothing more
to hope for as regards a slam, and
bids four spades. which responder
must pass, whatever his holdings of
kings. Had opener still any hopes
after the denial Of aces, he could still
have probed for king in one of the
three lower-ranking suits at the four
level, permitting responder to sign of
in denial at four spades. As opener
made no use of this device responder
knows that there are at least two
aces of the hand, and passes. Only
if he had a void suit and at least
three spades Cwi1l explain this detail
later could he now afford to show
II by bidding five in the void suit.
as the hand will still be safe at five
spades. In this actual case, it would
not help; opener must still sign of
safely at five spades. But if his minor
suits were A XXX and x with eight
solid spades, a cue bid in diamonds
would enable him to bid six spades
serenely; a cue bid in clubs would
make it attractive only If partner has
exactly x in diamonds would
there be no play for the small slam.
