quently of ignorance of making the
opening leads. Sooner or later be-
ginner Stumbles across some writer's
Table of Opening Leads" learns it,
and afterwards leads almost auto
matically. Unfortunately, that does
not mean that all his opening leads
are anywhere near as good as they
should be, because most leads in use
were devised for the wholly different
game of Whist. Doubtless such emf
nent authorities as Ur. Pole and
Professor Whitfield calculated the
best opening leads for Whist, as
played in their generation, but that
game was too unlike Bridge to ever
have justified quoting their Whist
advice for students of even Bridge
Whist, let alone Auction Bridge, or,
worse yet, Contract Bridge.
In Whist the last card dealt de-
termined the trump suit. There was
might have turned the only card he
held of the trump suit. Nobody knew
at first which player was strong in
trumps. The modern game intro
duces quite different situation.
First there is a no trump call to con-
slider. Next there is the factor of
having the declaring side probably
the more powerful in trumps, SO that
defenders usually cannot expect to
exhaust trumps and run off an .es-
tablished suit Instead defenders
must calculate upon having at best
no more than two rounds of a suit
before either declarer or dummy can
ruff. All deals were played in the
old game. Split strength in the new
game means new deal.
Whist leads often were made with
the two-fold purpose of winning
high card tricks and establishment
of the suit. Contract leads against
suit calls are made with the idea of
not losing high honors held. Only at
no trump does the opening leader
expect to establish his long suit
against a strong call. There are
many and convincing reasons why
a great proportion of the old leads
| that are followed without question
are not as good as others possible
to discover.
Before taking up ways of improv-
! ing leads in general use, we will re-
cite few sound rules employed by
all trained players. Senior sits at
declarerS' left and makes the Open-
ing lead. If he leads a suit bid by
partner it is a directed lead" II
partner has bid and senior opens an
other suit he makes substitute
lead" In case partner has not bid q
blind lead" is made. Ordinarily the
top of fewer than cards is led when
making a directed lead, but against
| no trumps it is we'll to hold part OF
the strength of partners suit at de-
clarer's left, even if only XXX
| OK or even J-x-X are held
Having 4 or more of partners suit
| senior may lead either Ace or K
against a trump call, to show who
holds such an important card, but
otherwise the fourth-best card Il
led, to better inform partner of the
number of the suit held by the de.
clarer.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-Magazine
editorships few years ago fell only
to the seasoned workers who had
reached or passed a shade beyond
middle years. Youth might write
but it could not edit. Or so it was
believed. But today the picture is
vastly changed.
Young men are in the editorial
saddle and riding hard. H. P. Bur-
ton, of Cosmopolitan, could play a
juvenile role on the stage or screen
without a makeup. Herbert MayeS,
of Pictorial Review, is in his 30's.
Alfred Dashiell who pilots the vet
eran Scribner's is not 35.
When Otis Wiese assumed edi-
torship of McCall's he might have
easily been mistaken for the
head office boy. In the editors
chair his feet scarcely touched the
floor. He was in his early 20's and is
now but 81. The editorial staff of
Esquire is largely youngsters.
Even George Horace Lorimer has
begun to ease up and let his hand
picked younger men run things a
bit. Sumner Blossom, of the Ameri-
can, is on the thither side of 40. And
most of the pulps, the mystery, de-
tective and love confession types,
have boyish editors.
Newspaper work has always been
tagged "a young mans game l
have long doubted it. 1 believe it
to be a slick chunk of propaganda
of the bosses to make Striplings
work. To break a leg landing the

Hearst often shows his staffS today,
is done by the more mature. Also
the most capable news direction.
Youngsters excel chiefly in nim-

His widow, associated closely with

WHERE DANGER TO LIBERTY
REALLY LIES


A nationally circulated newspaper, in
praiseworthy zeal to encourage defense
by Americans of the American principle
of liberty, forgets that the chief danger
TO liberty lies not in a lack of public in
terest in government, but in camouflage
of the motives behind politics Where
liberty is endangered, the American pub
lie will take white-hot interest. First,
however, the public must know that lib
erty is endangered.
Writing of Sen. Huey P. Longs dicta-
torship in Louisiana, Frederick w. Carr
lists in the Christian Science Monitor
what he describes as the list of causes
that went into making of the dictator
ship. Here is the list:
Political Factors
Feeling that politics has been made a
"dirty" field and that good people should
keep out of it.
Unwillingness of substantial citizens to
run for office.
Professionalizing of politics by the
spoilsmen, making politics a racket
which the outsider finds it hard to get
into.
Disbursement of citizens through
many defeats of their favored candidates
by the machine.
Occasional encouragement of citizens
when one of their own men turns ma
chine leader, proves ineffective, or sells
out.
Spoils politics, filling offices with ap-
pointees of the winners and turning out
the defeated.
Jobholders working all year around
for votes.
Fear and intimidation
Of fhn
appointment and tenure of public en-
ployees.
Tendency of business to help finance
the machine for special privileges or
through fear.
Demands of politicians for cash for
the machine or themselves.
Advantage held by Snowman type of
political leader over the less spectacular
nominee
Corrupt voting, through which election
fraud has become skilled art benefit
ing the machine.
Willingness of some politicians to be
bought with jobs, contracts, etc.
Failure of public to back up good offl-
cials when machine seeks to get such out
of its way.
Large blocks of voters OF foreign stock
easily led politically.
General Factors
Poverty.
Ignorance of many voters.
GuIlibiity of many who believe what
they want to hear
Lack of interest in subject of govern
ment.
Hard times turning desperate citizens
toward fallacious shortcuts.
Tendency in hard times to resort to
personal leader instead of to principles.
Influence of great foreign currents On
American affairs, melting imitation or
emulation
Sectional Factors
Low pay of farmers, especially IN the
South.
Corresponding backwardness of many
small southern farmers.
Illiteracy, Louisiana standing next to
lowest state though younger generations
are reported getting adequate schooling.
Tardines of women to interest them
selves in politics, especially marked IN
the South.
One-party system of the South, which
hampers opposition to the faction IN
office
Mr.. Carr's list is comprehensive one
of the factors going into rotten admins
tration in several large cities, some
counties and few states, but 1t hardly
furnishes a basis for the belief that the
United States is drifting toward dicta-

torship. Divided as it may be between
liberal and conservative policies, the Am

the threat of dictatorship from what
ever source.

The purpose of such a plan is
primarily to lower the death rate
of Negroes throughout the United
States. According to statistics on
mortality records, the Negro has
a higher death rate than his white
brother. Based on these statisti-
cal facts, insurance rates for
Negroes are generally higher be-
cause the risk is considered great
er.
By means of such a national pro-
gram an attempt is made to pro-
mulgate the ideas of modern medi-
cine on health. So frequently these
messages come to those who hear
but do not desire to appreciate
them. It is surprising how people
hold to ignorance and prejudice in
matters of health. However, the
hope is that by constant propa-
ganda attention will be called to
the fact that certain health meas
ures are the most scientific and
also that early diagnosis of any
body disease depends upon the con-
slant vigilance of the individual.
Although only a short period of
time is set aside for this program,
nevertheless the facts which will
be stressed are to be used daily.
In order that any one may be
happy and that any one may live a
normal life, he must be healthy in
mind and body. In this way only
can he be of service to himself and
to his fellowmen.
It is our duty in the Twin Cities
to make this health week success
by giving our support to the vari-
GUS phases Of the program which
is now being prepared for the near
future.
