THE American Bridge League is
Il holding its national masters
tournament in the Park Lane Ho-
tel, New York City, this week.
There are two events on the
program. First is the masters in
dividual, with SO players partici-
pating.
These are invited from the list
Of 1856 qualified masters in the
United States. Every participant
plays with each of the other play
ers, once as partner and twice
as an opponent.
Second Is the masters team of
four event, which is open to all
qualified masters and pits team
against team, with total point
scoring. The winners of this event
also will become defenders of the
Olcott-Pate trophy. emblematic of
the worlds championship.
The championship player is a
percentage player. When there
are two possible ways to make a
hand, he will give himself both
opportunities. Take, for example,
today's hand.
Vests opening lead was the
seven of spades. Dummy's 10
forced East to play the king. If
East were to return a trump he
could see that declarer could
quickly establish a spade trick
in dummy; so he decided to do
what he could to help his part
ner make a trick.
He caShed the ace of spades
and then continued with a small
spade, which declarer trumped
with the ace of hearts. Two
rounds OF trump were taken. the
second round being won in dunn
my with the queen.
At this poirt the queen Of
spades was played from dummy.
Declarer gave himself the adj
vantage end discarded a small
diamond.
Now heart was returned and
won by declarer. Some play
ers might have made the mis-
take Of leading club and taking
the finesse. in which case their
contract would have been de-
feated.
Instead, the eight Of diamonds
was led and when South found

to the entire family from the baby

that a small child may eat deviled

any of the highly seasoned sauces.
But it does mean that he may
have poached eggs, eggs soft-cooked

the shell tif properly cooked care
fully scrambled eggs, baked omelets

Many grown-ups will welcome
eggs if mushrooms are added for
flavor. A bit of anchovy paste also
adds zest to the mildly favored egg.
Poached eggs on bed of hot, nicely

friends and I am wondering IL this
would make a difference when we
visit them. Why is it that I feel
this way and what can I do to over
come this terrible feeling? I like
them very much and they care lot
Tor me. Another thing, Is it right
for me to take this man away from
his mother who is depending on him
alone for her living? He has other
brothers and sisters who can help.
Cont mind helping her financially
but I can not live with the family.
l think when one decides to take
wife he should want home of his
own. Please advise me. E. s.
Answer do not know why you
should feel uncomfortable in the
presence OF your prospective
brother-in-law and former sutton
unless he still attracts you.
II you will examine your feel
ing closely you may find it tinged
with jealousy. This need not
mean that you do not care for
the one you expect to marry, but
only that in some primitive part
Of your being you are loatbe to
let go of a man who once cared
for you. Nearly every one has
something to face in his own be-
ing which Is abhorrent TO his bet
ter self. We do not always rec
ognize the origin Of strange emo
tons because it Is painful to do
so. No doubt you will be able to
overcome your uneasiness in his
presence since you are all good
friends.
You need not feel guilty about
taking a man of "a from his
mothers home when he still is able
to contribute to her financially and
has other brothers and sisters to
share this responsibility. 1t is nat
ural and normal for men to marry
and leave mothers. see no reason
why old people should be shielded
from this reality and protected from
facts as II they still were babies
In the nursery. You need not feel

lily for marrying him and establish
ing a home of your own.

SAN PEDRO, Feb. 27. UP)-A ra-
dioman's mistake" of II hours in
radio report sent coast guard
boats scuttling to sea tonight to
search for the lumber schooner w.
H. Chamberlain. Jr., proceeding
peacefully toward port.
Fears for safety of the vessel were
aroused when a report earlier to-
day said the vessel would arrive at
40 a. M" Five hours after the
schooner was due, coast radio sta
tions tried to locate her.
The ships radio was silent, how
ever, and coast guard patrol boats
and the cutter Aurora put to sea,
searching for the 299-foot schooner
with crew of 80.
An hour later the radioman on
the vessel explained he meant 10 o.
m. as the time of arrival.

furniture, jewelry etc. all must
be assessed. In past years, includ-
ing 1885, automobile assessments
and collections were handled by
this department. A state law, how
ever, took this task from the coun-
ty.
Every transfer of every piece
Of property must show on the rolls.
A knowledge of all kinds Of deeds
is essential because some of them
convey title and some do not.
Occupational taxes must be levi
ed and collected fer the areas
outside municipal boundaries. This
includes taxes for businesses, dance
halls, cafes, etc.
Also, the taxes on unsecured
personal property must be col
lected by the county assesSor-col-
lector. This includes property not
secured by real estate.
Improvements on property also
must be assessed and the taxes
collected and added to the county
eXchequer.
Taxation Picture
The whole taxation picture for
the county is divided into areas
comprised by the so school district
divisions, each of which has q
different valuation. All property IN
the different districts must be
segregated.

Chaplin Tardy
For Dinner Date
With q. B. Shau

HONOLULU, J.. H, Feb. 27. U.P)
Charlie Chaplin kept George
Bernard Shaw waiting 25 minutes
fer a luncheon today, an indignity
that left. the sharp-tongued cele-
brity sputtering, but to small
avail.
Shaw walked sedately out of
the Royal Hawaiian hotel to keep
an engagement with the comedian.
When Chaplin failed to appear
promptly, Shaw began walking up
and down. A crowd OF tourists
gathered.
Shaw glared. The tourists gaped.
He walked faster The tourists
mouths dropped lower.
In desperation he called a taxi.
Glancing at his watch from time
to time, "GBS" took up a double
time march beside the cab Still
the tourists gaped.
Finally he hoped into the cab
and left word that he would meet
Chaplin at the cafe they had Sc
lected for their luncheon.
Charlie eventually strolled out
of the hotel, MS White hair crisp
ly unruffled, and entirely at ease.
After inquiring his way to the
cafe he leisurely made his way
there, and sat down with Shaw
without offering any apology for
his tardineSS.
Inspecting the menu they dis
covered that they were in a Chi
nese cafe. Shaw Immediately de-
scribed his favorite Chinese dish,
but Chaplin manifested no interest
in Oriental delicacieS and ordered

headed by Sen. Hugo Black, D
Ala, probably would resume its
investigation soon.
Names of the first witnesses
have not yet been agreed upon,
but it was indicated in usually re-
liable quarters that the group
probably would conclude first its
inquiry into the multi-million dol
lar campaign by power interests
to defeat the public utility holding
company act of 1885.
The blanket subpeonas on the
telegraph companies, the United
Press learned, were issued by the
Black committee last fall but the
action was never made public by
the Investigators. 1t was confirmed
today by officials of the wire or
CARNATIONS directing the stupen-
dous task of gathering the data
From all sections of the country,
inspired to some extent by power
companies, came flood OF messages
demanding that senators and con-
gressmen vote against the holding
company act and its so-called
precipitated the Black inquiry.
Copies of these messages will find
their way into committee files.
The blanket subpeonas, it was
learned, do not specify certain leg
islation which may or may not
have been influenced by outside
pressure. The committee wants
copies of all kilograms about all
legislation which may or may not
have been influenced by outside
pressure.
This means that every Washing
ten lobbyists wire communications
in 1885 with the interests that en-
ploy him are, or will be soon, in
Blacks possession.
Black is the author of a bill
imposing strict limitations on lob
byists. The measure has passed the
senate and it has considerable sup
port in the house.
A house committee soon will be-
gin an investigation CT the Town
send plan. The Black committee,
it was learned, already has in
quired into the movement. Copies
of messages in which the Town
send scheme is involved will be
submitted to the committee.
The resolution authorizing the
lobby inquiry gives the Black COM
mittee widest powers ever enjoyed
by such a group. Under threat of
trying him before the bar of the
senate for contempt, the commit
tee forced Howard c. Hopson, all
ing, pudgy retired head of the
Associated Gas and Electric util-
tiles empire to appear before it
for questioning.
The committee resumes its in
quiry at a time when the A. g..
and E. organization is fighting at
tempts by the government to COL
lect nearly $50,000,000 from it in
back income tax and deficiencies.

refused to answer questions of

in the absence of their chief, j. 3.

effective Saturday.
Roper, who was out of the city
when the investigation took place,
said his only connection was to

him and to approve it, johnson
revealed that the inquiry was di-

leased.
Johnson was asked whether one
of the premature releases was a
report by the supervising inspect
ors of the steamboat inspection
service condemning present regu-
lations for safety at sea as made
quate.
"It was a long series of disclo-
sures of inadequate and innacurate
information" he replied.
Later he admitted the inquiry
was in connection with premature
release of this report He denied,
however, that the report would
have been Suppressed" stating
that it would have been shown

In informing the property own
ers of the amount they are to pay

bills and receipts must be written
and mailed. The number of bills
has decreased within the last few
years, West said, because consid-
