Same Old Question

Recent announcement that the
state Of South Dakota Is going to
abandon the coal mining business by
offering its property at Haynes, N. D..
for sale. has revived the argument
over the advisability Of state-owned
industries in our sister common
wealth.
That the South Dakota industries
have lost money consistently Is un-
disputed but advocates claim they
have tended to keep down the cost
Of competing articles and have there
fore benefited the public.
The dispute pits fact against theory
and the government Of South Dakota
chose to side with the cold figures,
Governor Berry pointing out that the
mine always lost money before he was
elected and had continued to lose
money since.
It IS interesting to note that this
Is the last Of the South Dakota en-
terprises to be folded up" even
though they were started about the
same time that North Dakota en-
tered the industrial field.
The state land loan business was
halted in 1926 after scandal which
shook the state and with losses run
ming high into tho millions. Liquida-
ton Of the hail insurance and bond
ing departments began last summer.
these, too, having failed.
Admittedly, North Dakota's expe-
Renee has been better than that, but
1t Is doubtful II this would be the
case had the management Of these
enterprises been entrusted to men
with less skill and honesty. The most
successful Of them have been under
the management Of one man since
their inception and millions Of dol
lars have been handled without q
major scandal. These are the state
insurance departments.
Our state mill and elevator has
been q political football from start
to finish and, as such, has not been
permitted to develop whatever po-
tentialities for benefit its founders
hoped for it. The manner In which
it can be mulcted by politicians was
only recently illustrated.
The theory on which South Dako-
tans seem to be operating is that the
people do well to limit the funds
they turn over to political office
holders. BY and large, it is q sound
theory.

which held. The ace of hearts was cashed and the declarer was careful to discard a club, as he wished later to ruff the spade as an entry into dummy.
 A small heart was continued and ruffed by declarer with the deuce of diamonds. He returned q small diamond and won in dummy with the ace. A heart was played. declarer trumping with the five of diamonds.
 Now the nine of spades was led and ruffed with the nine of dia- monds and the declarer discarded his losing club on the good heart, thereby making his contract of five odd.
 There are many different pos siblc combinations for the loca- ton of that king of hearts. Do you think that the declarer, in taking the heart finesse, had the odds in his favor?

Solution to Previous Contract Problem

Do you. like mathematics? If so, you will be interested in today's hand. ":
 East has a singleton heart and here is the interesting part-if North holds the king and of, hearts. 1t is not necessary to take the finesse; even if he holds ahe king and xxx of hearts, you do not have to take the finesse, while If North holds the king and x x of hearts, it is impossible to make the hand.
 Now, mathematically, should the heart finesse be taken? Don't for get to figure out your problemati. '. cal odds of the king of hearts To- cation with each distribution.
 This problem came up in the recent Canadian American tourna- ment at Niagara Falls. The de- clarer, after losing the first two spade tricks, decided to take the heart finesse, and of course Il worked. He then established the heart suit and made his contract. 't The Play.
 South cashed the king and queen of spades and then led a small club, which was won in dummy
