Perhaps one Of the most confusing
problems confronting the beginner at
contract, with a hand such as held by
South today, when his partner opens
the bidding with one diamond (which,
by the way, feel is better bid OH
this hand than one no trump, is
whether to support the diamonds or
bid one-over- one. It Is a hand
without any primary tricks, but 1t does
have good distribution.
OF course, there Is this to remember

great deal Of strength.
However, over his diamond bid,
East has passed and you now almost
have a right to assume that your

tricks in your hand.
But let us consider the result of
each of your bids. II you bid two

Land OF Sky
Christian Reid, Who Lived
in Salisbury, Helped
Section to Fame

The mountains of Western
North Carolina, in which Hendcr-
sonvillc has the best natural set.
ting. were first called "The Land
of the Sky by famous writer,
Christian Reid. Her book, "ln the
Land of the Sky" contains many
great descriptive chapters, pictur-
inc the beauties of the mountain
country.
Christian Reid was the nom de
plume used by Mrs. Frances
Christian Fisher Tiernan, a gifted
woman, the author of many nov
els and short stories. She was born
in Salisbury. N. c.. the daughter
of Colonel Charles F. Fisher, who
was the first man in North Caro-
lima to begin the mobilization OF
troops for the Confederacy.
Mrs. Tiernan won worldwide
fame for her writings, being &C
corded the Lactare medal by the
University of Notre Dame for
contribution to American litera-
tuie. The name she gave this
mountain land still remains as the
most appropriate Of all the de-
scriptivc titles it carries.

hardwood forest in the United
States. also the largest virgin for

some of which rise more than
5000 feet. are covered with un-
usually dense forests, consisting
of spruce, balsam and some hem
lock.
"The mountain streams are bor-
dered with rhododendron and
laurel, and the slopes are thick
with flame azalea and wild honey

trees. Nowhere in the world is
there such a variety of plant life
in an equal area"

Office is keeping it's newest acqui-

is rushing through negotiations as
fast as practicable to bring about
early completion of land purchas-

as possible. Arno Camerer, dlrec-

TROUT SEASON
WILL BEGIN ON
18TH OF APRIL
Open Season for Small
Mouth Bass Starts
on June II

New fishing regulations for the
Great Smoky Mountains National
park have been made public by j..
Ross Eakin. park superintendent.
The new regulations, the an
nOunccmcnt stated, were APPROX
ed by the secretary Of the interior,
and. in full. are as follows:
"Fishing with nets, seincs, traps
or by the use Of drugs or cXplos-
! ives, or in any other way than
with rod, artificial fly without bait
and line held in hand, or for mer-
chandisc or profit. is prohibited.
! The open season for trout in the
park for streams not closed to
fishing for restocking is April lG
to August 81, inclusive. The open
season for small mouth bass in
streams not closed for restocking
is June / | to August q, inclusive.
Trout or small mouth bass less
| than 10 inches in length shall be
carefully handled with moist
! hands and returned to the water
at once. Fish retained shall be
killed Immediately upon being re-
! moved from the hook.
"Ten trout per person or ten
small mouth bass per person or
ten trout and bass per person fish
ing shall constitute the limit for
| days catch. In the direction of
the superintendent. the limit for
days catch may be increased or
! decreased in certain waters indi-
Gated by posted notices.
"Any of the waters of the park
NAV be closed to fishing by the
superintendent when, in his judg-
ment, such action is necessary for
restocking.
"The possession of fishing tackle
or fish on waters of the park clos
ed to fishing will be considered
prima facie evidence Of fishing.
| The possession Of nets, selnes.
traps or explosives on waters OF
, the park will be considered prlma
facie evidence that the person or
| persons having same are guilty OF
I violating this regulation. Such
| outfits will be taken and held sub
iect to the order Of the director
office of national parks, buildings
and reservations.
"Fishinc in waters of the park,
not closed for restocking, is per-
mitted from daylight to dark our
ing the open season. At no time
will fishing be permitted between
dark and daylight"
In announcing the regulations,
the park superintendent said that
at will be noted the trout season
does not open until April 16, in
stead of March l, as has been the
case in the Tennessee section OF
the park. Open season is now the
same in both the North Carolina
and Tennessee sections of the
mark. The new regulations prohlb-
! It fishing, except with artificial fly
without bait, provide a minimum
size of 10 inches for trout and
bass. and a daily limit of 10 fish
per person fishing.
"Persons fishing in the park
must have state fishing licenses
issued by Tennessee OF North Car
DINA as the case may be. A Ten,
nessee fishing license is not valid
in the North Carolina section OF
the park OF vice versa.
"The new regulations have been
promulgated in order to insure
better fishing. To that end the
cooperation of the fishing puolic
will be greatly appreciated"

BY NEIL CAROTHERS,

the College Of Business Administration
at Lehigh University.
IT WAS the ancient Job, sore beset
by many vicissitudes, who said:
20, that mine adversary had
1 written a book" The wise old
prophet sensed that if he could
once get the opposition on record he
had them. The administration of
this nation, perturbed by the storm
of criticism of the mass of regulatory,
inf1ationary and confiscatory meas
ures that have astonished the think
ing classes of the country, has gone
into print. In the New York Herald
Tribune Magazine, the New York
Times, the Saturday Evening Post
and many other journals, some OF
the Government officials have offered
apologize, defense and counter-attack.
The presentation has been careful
and deliberate. 1t was marred, it is
true, by a few minor mishaps. The
proof that the A. A. A. is fine thing,
without drought, had to be changed
very suddenly into a proof that the
A. A. A. is a fine thing, with a
drought. The portrayal of the
achievements of price-fixing under
the blue eagle was somewhat blurred
by the announcement that code men,
bers could violate the price agree
ments when dealing with the United
States Government. The elaborate
explanation of Section IA was some
what embarrassed by general strike
in San Francisco, paralyZing strike
in Minneapolis and a calamitous tex
tile strike. The defense of the Bank
head act was coincident with the pub
lication of figures indicating that for
every bale we plowed under foreign
countries grew and sold one more
bale. The eloquent, if somewhat con-
hicting, descriptions of the A. A. A.,
the N. r. A., the P. w. A. and the
monetary measures as certain cures
for depression were rudely interrupted
by the announcement that at last a
real cure had been discovered in a
brand-new housing program.
But these aspects of the campaign
of defense were less important than
the opportunity it offered to obtain
at last an explanation of Government
policies. Thoughtful observers have
been bewildered, at loss to under
stand what the administration is try
ing to do, what is the plan behind
the endless talk about planning, what
economic philosophy underlies the
more than fifty nondescript and mu-
tually destructive measures that have
so cruelty hamstrung reviving finance
and industry. Radio announcements
have been sadly empty of analysis,
explanation or statement of aim.
The money-changers, the forgotten
man, love for the common people,
belts of trees-but no program, no
policy. no philosophy.
Serious students hoped that the
! phalanx Of spokesnen would solve

in shipping circles on the Eastern
and Western Coasts. 1t has cost a
lot of money, you see, to build up
the American merchant marine to its
present stage. Not only that, but
ship operators still owe the Govern
ment almost 100000 of moneys
borrowed to build these ships.
Probe Coming October 1.
And worse than all, they are in
the midst of several inquiries into
the huge sums-almost $4,000, 900
annually-they are receiving for car
rying mails hither and yon and with
the worst probe coming up on Octo-
ber /.
One Of the major arguments they
have used to sell the use Of Aneri-
can ships to the American ship
travelling public has been that factor
Of safety. And an incident like. the
Moro Castle debacle destroys public
confidence and simply ruins business.
So these conferences among ship
ping men have been centered upon
one subject-how to overcome the
inevitable consequences of this most
recent catastrophe and how to pro-
vide further safety to passengers by
assuring that it won't occur again.
There isn't any question Of doing
it. you understand, for it has to be
done. 1t simply is problem of ways
and means with which to do it.
Evening star., 1934-09-16

simultaneously elsewhere other
minds have been busy.
For instance, the Shipping Board
has summoned officials of every COM
pany operating American passenger
ships to appear here between now
and October l, and some OF them,
notably r. Stanley Dollar, head of
the Dollar Steamship Lines, which
operates ships all around the world,
already are here.
The Advisory Committee Of the
Shipping Board has passed resolu-
ton this past week advocating re-
fusal of any loans for ship construc-
ton unless and until full fireproofing
is assured, and that resolution is now
in the hands of Secretary Roper
Of the Department of Commerce.
Naval officials also are extremely
interested, for the MORO Castle was
designed and built as a naval auxil-
iary under plans and specifications
approved by them. And If small
blaze in a writing room could cause
the holocaust it did in ship just
few miles offshore, they picture
what would have happened if, during
a possible wartime, a fire shell had
struck the same ship when she was
in the middle of the ocean loaded
with troops.
Secretary Roper meanwhile has not
been idle. The Shipping Board, which
is now under his department, had an

ton has come quickly. For the Amer
ican merchant marine is proud of its
record for safety of its passengers, and
while the Moro Castle was supposed
to be the last word in safety, neverthe-
less the Moro Castle went up in smoke
Just a few miles off friendly shore,
and the casualty list ran high.
And So with typical American spirit,
we're going ahead to fix up what is
wrong.
Safety Record Impressive.
1t really is a proud safety record,
that one of ours. AS you look over
the files of the United States Steanl-
boat Inspection Service you can't help
but be impressed by 1t, for taking into
account all the shipwrecks, fires, acci-
dents, everything else that happened
in the five years 1928-32, American
ships carried 3.615. .280 passengers for
every one they lost. just read it,
