NEW YORK, Jan. 29 U.N.SJ.

Alfred E. Smith resumed his at

United States Senator Joseph T.
Robinson's address over the radio
last night as q canned" speech
which did not come from the
heart.
Smiths references to the "only
one man" who could answer him
was taken in political circles as a
challenge to President Roosevelt
to make that answer.
Sorry for "Poor Joe"
Scornfully, AL Smith rebuked
his running mate on the Demo

felt sorry for poor Joe"
He charged that Administration
speakers are beclouding the issue.
He said:
poor john sorry for him.
They put him on a tough spot.
He did the best he knew how,
but 1t was no answer. As I
said in my speech at the Liberty
League dinner there is only one
man who should try to answer
me.
"NO-I won't make any reply

Senator Lists Vital
Issues to Be Met
By Platform

NEW YORK, Jan. 90 GNs),
If the Republican party hopes to
win the presidential election this
year it must offer a platform that
will serve the interests of all and
it must give the rank and file Of
the membership a voice in the
selection of candidate.
This warning was left with the
G. o. P. today by Senator William
E. Borah of Idaho.
Speaking last night at Brook.

scribed as the opening effort by
his Eastern adherents to make m
the Republican standard bea. 2r

he wanted to give a frank discus.

ordinary" weakness, even if this
operates to his own disadvantage.
Voters BaffIed 30 Years
Declaring the voters OF many
States have had no voice in choos-
ing the presidential candidates
for 80 years, Senator Borah said:
81 do not know Of anything
more important to the public
than who is going to determine
the fitness of the candidates
and how it is going to be de-
termined. 1t does not make so
much difference that any par.

He said that if the party's
nominee was not to be picked
secretly with "sordid interests
pulling the strings" only in
structed delegates should be sent
to the Cleveland convention.
Vital Issues Listed
Touching on vital current is
sues, he advocated:
Adoption Of living platform"
which would serve the interests Of
the people as a whole.
A hands-off policy for the ma

Opposition to constitutional

Pensions of $50 or $50 a month

Senator Borah described AL
Smiths speech at the Liberty

pathetic funeral Grafton" he had
ever heard. He said Mr.. Smith

Along Path of Romance

to a woman who has ceased to
function as wife in order to
have a fool-proof excuse for
avoiding another responsible re-
lationship.
A woman's affections appear to be
more easily engaged than a mans,
although, of course, it is not in
evitably so. Generally speaking,
when a woman succeeds in estab-
fishing satisfactory companionship
with man she longs to make it
permanent by marriage. If the man
is not free to satisfy her longing for
a home and an exclusive partner
ship, tragedy is invited.
Do not forget the element of
revenge which is present in the
married man who meets his wife's
infidelity with infidelities of his
own. Often he unc0nsciously re-
venges himself for the hurts he
received at the hands of his wife
by hurting an innocent third
party.
The situation as you describe it
sounds innocent enough, but it is
charged with dynamite for you. You
have about as much chance to go
through it unscathed as you have to
walk through fire without being
burned. If your philosophy in
Guided the wish "to have, to hold
and in time let co." it would be a
different story. But can you hon
estly hold that you are capable of
such detachment?

Solution to PreUio,ts
Contract Problem
By w. E. M'KENNEY

Secretary American Bridge League
IT is not unusual for a declarer
L to lose what he thinks is an
ironclad contract, due to eXcep-
tionally fine defense by his OPP
ponents.
In such cases declarer, of
course, has the benefit of gath
ering such crumbs of knowledge
as he may, from having had this
actual experience.
However, it is a decided adj
vantage to know that your oppo-
nents are extremely clever de-
tense players so that you may
take this into consideration in
mapping out the line of play that
you should pursue.
Today'S hand illustrates this
very clearly. Against the three no
trump contract the opening lead
of the jack of hearts was won by
declarer in his own hand. He
could see three heart tricks and
two diamond tricks.
If he could succeed in bringing
in the spade suit for four tricks,
his contract was assured. But
with only one re-entry in dunn
my. this seemed to be a rather
difficult thing to do.
Having no other recourse, he
took the only chance that he had
to make his contract. His first
play was the queen of spades and,
realizing full well that he would
be allowed to win this trick, he
decided to cover with the king.
after West played low.
He followed with the jack of
spades, discarding a diamond.
Again he was permitted to win the
trick.
At this point declarer decided
there must be some reason why
the ace was being withheld. The
reason must be that the nine of
spades must be blank and the OPP
ponent who held the ace wanted
to give declarer the opportunity
of making the mistake of leading
a small spade. allowing the nine
to make.
Declarer, however. played the
10 of spades and was gratified to
,e the nine spot drop. This trick

Now no matter what West re-

DR.. William Lowe Bryan, Indiana
University president, who spoke to-
day, cited farm youths as holding
an advantage over children reared
in cities.
City Children Lack Advantages
Hand work is a development OF
human intelligence and character -
he said. Mature answers people
who know what questions to ask.
The skilled mechanic and artist are
those who know how to meet new
conditions. One of the great mis-
fortunes is that city children grow
up without place to play freely,
and do not have the advantage of
splitting wood as the country chill
dren do"
