Soviet Speeds Travel.

MOSCOW, October 3.-American
innovations meet the tourist in every
part OF the Soviet Union. Most
travellers remark on the improvements
which have been made in the Russian
train service. Sleepers have modern
equipment and operate on faster
schedules. The new air service; Just
established between Kiev and Prague,
provides another convenient connec-
ton with the principal cities Of
Europe. One can ny from Prague to
Kiev in about six hours. Tho new
fast rail schedule reduces the time

SPEECH IS WASTED

Arkansas Candidate Impresses
Votes-0nly to Find He Is

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, October g.
A story that has proved somewhat
embarrassing to Osro Cobb, Republi.
can nominee for Governor, was told
after his tour in Southern Arkansas.
In his hurried travelling and speech
making, Cobb would sit in. the back
Of his sound truck and work on de-
tails Of his campaign while travelling
from town to town. Between speeches
he noticed the truck was passing
through q small town. Neither Cobb
nor his manager recognized the town,
nor could they find sign to identify
the place.
Cobb, not wanting to miss any
potential votes. decided to make q
speech. A crowd gathered. Cobb de-
livered = colorful speech. He promised
to lift South Arkansas out of the dust
and to build good roads If elected
Governor.
A. he reached the climax, he was
interrupted by farmer, who said:
Were all for you, young feller
We think you've got the right idea,
and let me tell you. we appreciate
your coming down here. But we can't
vote for you. You're in Junction City,
La" a..
Hall Of the town Is in louisiana
and the other half Is in Arkansas
Cobb was on the Louisiana side OF
town.
The appointment Of Commission
by Cobb to investigate charges Of ex-
cessive campaign expenditures preced-
ing the recent Democratic State pri-
mary election Is beginning to show
results.
A charge that Carl E. Bailey. Demo-
cratic nominee for Governor, failed
to include alleged billboard advertis-
ing expenses Of approximately $1,000
2 in his afiidavit of campaign expenses
ffled with Secretary Of State Ed r.
Mcdonald, has been made by Lonzo
A. Ross, Little Rock Republican leader.
State Republican headquarters an
nounced that II conclusive evidence
Of violation Of the corrupt practice
act, is obtained, the matter probably
would be taken to the courts In an
effort to prevent certification Of any
ineligible candidates on the ballot in

A FINE hand in high cards, 1t Is
- well worth more than one bid.
Second hand overcalls with two dia-
monds, your partner passes, fourth
hand passes and the average player
promptly bids two hearts. But not
the expert-the expert doubles. This
double allows partner to bid two
hearts If he holds four or five Of that
suit, or two spades if his hand calls
for such . bid. But suppose part
ner's holding is:
Spades xx
Hearts XIX
Diamonds XXX
Clubs xxxxx
He would have to return to two
spades over the two-heart bid, where
upon you would undoubtedly be set,
and yet you could have made four or
five clubs, which suit he would bid In
response to your double.
But that advantage Is slight indeed
compared with the following posi-
bility. Suppose partners holding is:
Spades Xxx
Hearts XXX
Diamonds G xxx
Clubs A xxxx
He now will make . business pass
of your double and the two-diamond
contract may be set three tricks. 1t
is worthy Of note In this connection
that when a player who has opened
the bidding subsequently makes q
take-out double, his hand should be
Of such nature that he Is willing to
have the double left In. For instance,
If you open the bidding with . spade,
holding
Spades K QJxx
Hearts A Qxxx
Diamonds K
Clubs ak
following q two-diamond overcall and
two passes, you should rebid to two
hearts. While with
Spades K QJxx
Hearts x Qxxx
Diamonds \
Clubs A @
YOU should Jump to three hearts In
stead Of doubling informatively.
THE following hand, Is bid by David
Burnstine and Oswald Jacoby, is
q fine example Of the workings OF this
bid: Ht-tat

~ NE Of the principal differ
1 ences between expert and
Y ordinary bidding lies in the
fact that the average player
fails to take advantage Of many bids
that are at his disposal, either be-
cause he fears that his partner will
not understand them or just has
never thought Of them.
One bid In particular. which Is one
Of the most valuable in bridge and

Alarmed by the failure of police
to capture the vacation burglar
who is blamed for almost dozen
burglarieS in the exclusive resi-
Dental section around Connect
cut Avenue and California Street
Northwest, residents today were
planning an appeal to Commits
Sioner Melvin C. HaZen for addi-
tional protection.
The series of burglaries started
in May as residents began leaving
their homes for the summer, it
was pointed out, and police have
so far been unable to run down
the burglar.
The latest victim was Admiral
S. E. w. Kittelle, whose home at
1929 California st. N. w. was en-
tered last week and articles valued
at several hundred dollars stolen.
Detectives have learned that two
young women have been seen in
the neighborhood acting as can
vaSserS, and it is believed they may
be spoilers" for the burglar to
learn what houses are unoccupied.

ROCKEFELLER
WILL BE 81
TOMORROW
Bv JAMES L. KILGALLEN


NEW YORK, July 7 Q.N.S0.
John D. Rockefeller will quietly
observe his ninety-seventh birth
day at his estate at Lakewood,
N. j., tomorrow.
The fact that "the richest man
in the world" is now only three
years from the 100 mark is of
much interest to the medical
world and to the public generally.
DR.. Charles Mandel, of Equi-
table Life Assurance Company,
said today that the chances Of
Rockefeller reaching 100 are "defi-
nitely against him" He stated:
"ROckefeIIer's life expectancy
is about half a year. The in
Surance companies will not in
sure anyone over 10. Some Of
them will not insure anyone
over g."
DR.. Louis I. Dublin, chief statiSti-
clan and third vice president OF
Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany, pointed out that when a
man reaches Rockefeller'S age
mortality is very high" Whether
John D." would reach 100 was
"anybody's guess" in his opinion.
Comparatively few persons live
to be 100. The 1880 census shows
that of all persons (both sexes and
all colors) only 3,647 of Americas
1913, 00O,000 population reported
themselves to be 100 years old, or
over.

90 WORKER
LAY SIEGE TO
OHIO SENATE

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 7
G.N.S0.-Demanding passage of
adequate" relief legislation, so
members of the Workers Alliance,
composed of dissatisfied relief
clients. settled down to passive
demonstration in the Ohio senate
today to force a relief law to meet
their demands.
Members, including men, women
and children, listened intently as
the senate passed its Stop-gap bill
last night, and after adjournment
spent the night in the galleries
and in the aisleS between the
senator's desks.
Nelson G. Meagley, of Toledo,
leader of the demonstrators, said
they supported the FOUL bill to
appropriate $2O,0OO,00O for relief
needs through 1886 and were dis
satisfied with all relief laws pro-
posed thus far.
The crowd, apparently taking
its cue from the tactics of relief
clients who recently besieged the
New Jersey legislature, held mock
sessions in the house during the
night, but did not occury seats on
the floor of the senate.
They breakfaSted on sandwiches
and coffee brought in by one of
their number. Meagley promised
there will be no violence from
our side" There was no evidence
Of hostility between the alliance
members and employees Of the SEN
ate, who furnished them with
water, soap and towels this morn
ing after their night-long vigil.

New Period For Local Employes Opens Thursday
100 WPA Workers De- Iayed By Time Ar-
 rangement

Work on the local WPA traffic survey project, now located in the Lincoln House building on Field street, will not start until Thursday, the beginning of the new WPA work period, The Democrat learned today. Work was originally scheduled this morning, after four weeks of inactivity.
 The fact that the new work period will not start until Thursday also affects the placement of 100 persons on the local WPA by the depart ment of welfare. It was reported last week that this group of "re- lief" persons would be taken care of by a blanket requisition through the New Haven office of the WPA. It is expected that placements will be made on Thursday.
 In regard to the traffic survey, 1t was pointed out that the men would only receive two days pay for the present work period if they started to work this morning. This would probably cause some complication in the matter of auditing payrolls here. The auditing was completed for the present work period today. If the survey workers handed in separate time sheets, these sheets would have to be sent in separately to New Haven, or the auditing of local payrolls would be held up un- til Wednesday. This would delay the pay checks for the present work period.
