Solution to PreUiOus
Contract Problem
BY w. E. M'KENNEY
Secretary American Bridge League


r HAD a pleasant surprise the
l. other day when Phil Leon of
Cleveland walked into my New York
office. AS soon as I saw Phil, !
knew he was going to give me one
of those unusual hands of his.
In the days of auction, the Ex-
celsior Club team of Cleveland, of
which Mr.. Leon was a member, was
acknowledged the greatest auc-
ton team of four in the country
They distinguished themselves one
year by winning the two ma jor auc-
ton events in both the American
Whist League and the American
Bridge League.
In giving me today's hand, Mr.
Leon said it came up in the recent
Ohio state tournament. Mr.. Leon.
sitting in the West. took the first
three tricks and then had to resort
to an unusual play to defeat the
contract.
y
LIS opening lead was the king
- of hearts. on which his part
ner played the three. On the ace of
hearts Mr.. Icons partner played
the four and declarer dropped the
queen. This definitely marked East
with the ten of hearts.
Mr. Leon now led the ace of dia-
monds. his partner played the ten
spot, shouting loudly to continue
diamonds, but declarer dropped the
Jack. West now reasoned that
South probably held five spades and
five clubs. and therefore to continue
with a diamond would do no good.
West could also see that declarer
had no possible in-card to dummy
and, if he held the ace-queen of
clubs, he would be forced to lay
down the ace of clubs, which would
capture Vests singleton king. Leon
decided to make what generally is
considered a poor play.
He laid down the jack of hearts,
knowing that declarer could ruff in
one hand and discard in the other
But this was exactly what Leon
wanted. Declarer trumped the trick
in dummy with the deuce of spades.
discarding the four of clubs from
his own hand.
Now declarer felt quite satisfied.
because he had been wondering how
he could get into dummy to take the
club fineSse. He led the jack of
clubs from dummy, allowing it to
ride, and West won the trick with

To Refresh The

mencing just after Olson's coun-
sci asked witness ]. A. Danielson
the first cross-examination ques-
ton in reference to who the suits
financial hackers were, he will
find that Monaghan specially re-
peated his objections to that line
of questioning on the ground that
it was irrelevant, immaterial, and
improper cross-examination. He
will also find that these objec-
tons were over-ruled.
Then he will be able to proper
ly advise his questioners some
thing else than that the answers
were let in because Monaghan

Labor movement" The confer
ence was set for March 20, 1925,
at St. Paul.
VIM. Mahoney, chairman of
the Federation, was one of the
members of the three groups who
issued the call and the call recited
this:

ference is to discuss the Sit

The purpose of that confer
ence was not merely to change
the name" of the Federation, as
Olson swore in the custer suit.
Another paragraph of that call
reads as follows:

Cong. Lundeen Urged
Jury In Contempt Gases
By Nonad

" The FL congressman, Ernest
Eundeen, has attempted to secure
legislation providing that alleged
contempts of court committed
outside of court rooms must be
tried by juries. .a,
Our state constitution declares
that human life, liberty, and prop
erty shall not be taken away with
out due process of law, and no
person shall be convicted of
crime except in trial by a jury
of his peers.
Crime is defined as an act
which violates a law and is pun
ishable by fine or imprisonment.
The courts have found a way
to hold for themselves the power
to convict for contempts commit
ted, both inside and outside the
court room.
1t is contempt Of court to pub
lish an unfair account of a trial

tional.
The FL Federation's state
committee were anxious to secure
a separation of the FL move
ment from, the communists who
had secured membership in the
Federation.
This committee went into con-
ference with the state committee
of the Farmers Nonpartisan
League and with representative
members of the Farmer-Labor
party's state committee on Jam
uary II, 1925, in St. Paul. At
this conference it was decided
to form a new organization made
up of everyone interested in the
farmer-labor movement, exclud-
ing the communist members of
the Federation. 49,
Pursuant to this committee
was selected from these three
groups to issue a call for a
Unity Conference to members
of the FL Federation who were
not communists, to the Farmers
Nonpartisan League, to Women's
Nonpartisan clubs, to FL men,

The FL Leader, being a semi
monthly paper, was not legally
qualified and therefore came TN
Ter the provisions of this act. And
it had not been registered as re-
quired under the above law.
Opinion evidence was therefore
admissible and Olson should be
the last one to object to this use
of his own law.
But the court said, ''This case
is not going to be tried on any
such proposition as that"
In spite of the court, we'll
leave it to you if that law does
not squarely fit the above situa-
ton. Olson's law came to roost

Conference"
The unity conference was held
according to the call and was par
ticipated in largely by members
of groups other than some of the
officers and members of the Fed
Grafton.
Floyd B. Olson was placed
with others, including ex-mayor
VIM. A. Anderson, as a member
of the committee on "Constitu-
ton and Organization
A new organization was ''estab-
lished" at that conference and
the name ''Farmer-Labor Asso-
citation" was selected and
adopted.
Floyd B. Olson participated in
drawing the constitution which
was also adopted. Here is a
paragraph from it:
Article III
Membership
Sec. |. The membership
of this organization may
comprise all organizations of
men and women accepting
the program and principles
of Farmer-Labor Associa-
ton, provided, however, that
no person nor any oganiza-
ton advocating political or
economic change by means
of force or by means of rev.
olution, or advocating any
other than a representative
form Of government, shall
be admitted to membership"
~ .'st' i:tF
There is more than a change
Of name in that provision. That
section provides for an exclusion
of the communist members of the
Federation from becoming mem
bers of the Farmer-Labor Asso-
citation, proving it to be a brand
new order, with a brand new
membership and a brand new
constitution, drawn by Floyd B.
Olson.
The Federation was not dis
solved by the organization of the
Association. It's officers acted
for the Federation after the or
ganization Of the Association and
it has not been officially dissolved
to this date. Which is further
and absolute proof that there was
not merely change of name. /"
When Floyd B. Olson saved
his hide on the witness stand by
saying that the Federation
changed its name to the Farmer
Labor Association, he swore to
that in order to supply an ex-
cuse for stating that he believed
the incorporation was extended to
the Association, he swore to a de-
liberate falsehood. And the judge
said he believed Olson and dis
missed the case because of it.
That was the crucial point on
which the case balanced.
This is new found evidence.
And if the petitioners have not
lost all of their courage, that
custer case should be forced open
and successfully retired. And
the ground for a new trial would
be the newly found evidence
which grasses Olson's perjured
