NEW YORK Dec 28-There are hopeful indica-
tions that the trial of Bruno Richard Hsupt-
mann. the German carpenter who was arrested for
minding s15,OOO cash entrusted to his care by
pennileSs friend will be conducted in strict accord
ance with the highest principles of American jour
nalism and justice.
Under the American system the ideal trial is one

Did Lorenz, furious at being dis
placed in the baroness affections,

of a stroke, in November.
It was felt that he might have

HISTORY, politics, the ebb and

preston, the coming and going Of
Congress never change.
Here is a summary of the condi-
ton of the country in 1873 pub
lished by Appleton's Annual Cy-
clopedia just as Congress was
about to convene:
''It was believed that the de-
pressing influences which had been
felt with such force for more than
two years had nearly or quite ex-
hauSted themselves, that no meas
ures calculated to disturb values
or check the restoration of conf
dence were likely to be taken by
Congress, and that trade and COM

DEHIND Administration tactics
- in whipping up support for
the Bankhead cotton control act
lies an intimate story of diverse
views within the Department of
Agriculture.
Both Chester G. Davis, admins
traitor of the AAA, and Secretary
Wallace were back of the plan to
exempt farmers growing only two
bales of cotton-but for different
reasons.
Wallace wanted the two-balers
exempted because he thought the
little fellow had received a poor
deal; also because he favors less
restriction and more cotton.
Davis was loath to see restric-
ton slackened, even for the two
balers. But he sensed growing adj
verse sentiment in the South, saw
the Bankhead act going glimmer-
ing unless given pulmotor treat

BrOun Buys an Indian

7 DO not think the fountain will be found. I base
L this prediction on tale told to me by an ancient
Seminole Indian, late at night in lunchroom And
submit, your honor, that when I am reduced to
talking to Indians in lunchroOms that is distinct
reflection on the tempo of the town. The ancient
Seminole said he would tell story of news in
tereSt if I would buy him another plate of ham and
eggs. After he had finished I had vague feeling
that the old boy had sold me a short story by Ma
thanel Hawthorne simply by adding little dialect.
But if I ever read the Hawthorne piece have
forgotten. At any rate paid plate of ham and
eggs for this land possibly got stuck and so will
pass it along without dialect and in my own words.
Historians err in assuming that Ponce de Leon
failed in his famous quest. He found the fountain
of youth, the authentic spring from which the life
giving waters dubbed. My friend the ancient Semi
mole, had an ancestor Who was present at the mo-
ment of the discovery De Leon never drank of that
spring nor would he permit any member of his party
to do so. He had stopped and cupped the waters in
his hands and then let the liquid trickle to the
ground for he had in short space visions and
dreamed dreams.
He'd Sell the Works
A ND he said to his comrades, cit will not be well
for US if we do this thing We will be men set
apart in the world. Suspended in time and space
like demons Of the pit. For our friends and all
those love will grow old and die and we will
need to wait and watch dissolution and then to love
again and so endleSSly through the ages"
But there was younger member of the party
who was avid to drink Of the waters and he ex-
claimed IS it not true that every tree puts on new
leaves in spring and takes glory in the circuit of
the seasonS?"
Ponce De Leon spoke again and said 1--WE are
not trees but Spanish gentlemen worthy of the
dignity of age and the boon of death and if any
one Of you advances toward the fountain him
7 will confer that boom
And he boarded over the spring and upon it he
heaped earth and sod and trod upon the jointure
so that man would never know the spot again, hid
den as it must be under luXurant ropic growth.
Yet even after he had told the story the old In
dian lowered his voice and said But think maybe
because of maps that have come down to me could
find the spot if you will pay now $780,"
I thought of what I had done that day and
what I would do the next and I said to the In
dian sternly, Ponce de Leon was right" And in
addition I found that the suspicious old Seminole
would not take check.

Now the declarer can sec that his only chance to make the hand is to find the king of diamonds m the West hand. suppose you would advise him to play small clubs and take the finesse.
 But can't you see that it will take two entries just to finesse the queen and jack of diamond And then you will not have a re-entry to make the deuce and three of diamonds? So here is a case where the deuce an dtrey are more im- portant than a queen and jack.
 TherefcEe, par on the hand is first to refuse to win the spade suit until the third round, and now to lay down the ace of diamonds and then the queen. When West re- fuses 10 win, lead the jack of dia- monds.
 Then. regardless of what West leads--a club or a heart-you will be able to win, cash the good deuce. and trey of diamonds in dummy and make nine tricks for three no trump.

Solution to Previous Contract Problems

This is the eighth of a series of IS playing problems prepared by Henry P. Jaeger.
 It is not difficult to get into a game contract of three no trump when you hold a lot of aces and tngs. The problem generally is to play the hand properly. When we hold an ace-queen combination, we always hope to find the king on the right side so that we will make two tricks.
 Don't be too anxious to make your ace-queen-or your ace, queen jack, as is the case in today's hand. Don't lose sight of the face that decues and .treys also will win tricks.
 The Play
