prominent bridge clubs of New York

ing experts. The awards were: First
pair. $3.50; second pair. 1925; third
pair. SIS: fourth pair, $50. Players
were so evenly matched that top
score could not be won by a pair
having more than a single bad score.
Even then that pair would have to
exceed average on all remaining
hands to take first place. To be in
the money at all. no pair could have
two bad hands, even if they were
above average on every other hand.
My partner and l had encountered
one bad hand. also we had made less
than average on another hand. We
needed an exclusive top score hand,
with no further hand below average
to be in the money at all. Against
the pair leading, we made an eX-
elusive top, by making 5-odd, doubled
and redoubled,> when vulnerable.
Then came the following critical deal,

he has been honored by being elected president
of the international Association of Governments

progress forward since he first came into the

Major Fletcher made an enviable name for

THE NEXT BONUS AGITATION

REHIND AN innocent-appearing resolution
- adopted by the American Legion at its re-
cent Cleveland convention is probably the first
move that is to be made in the way of acquiring
for pensions for widows and dependent children
of all World War veterans
That resolution was only to this effect:
SIN no event shall the widows and orphans
of World War veterans be without government
protection"
That can easily be construed as representing
the next drive to be made upon Congress by this
powerful organization.
The Federal government already is commit
ted in part to such bounties for the dependents
of its former soldiers.
Widows of World War veterans whose death
resulted from service receive the following
amounts monthly: If under so years of age $50;
between so and IS, $685. over IS years of age, $40.
In a limited number of cases, the rate is $50 ir-
respective of age.
The rate is increased by $40 for child under
10 and by SIS for child over 10 and up to Is
years of age. For each additional child the in
crease is So if under 10 and $13 if over 10. If
there is no widow but children survive, the pay
ment is $40 for one child, $33 for two, and $46
of rthree, with So more for each additional child.
The amounts are divided equally among the
children
These are the same payments as for widows
of Spanish-American war veterans who died
from injury incurred in or aggravated by ser
vice. Widows of all Civil War veterans who
served at least 80 days, or who died as result
of service get $50 month if married to the vet
Grams during their service. If married later and
prior to June 81, 1905 and if at least 70 years of
age the rate is $40 month. For other Civil
War widows, the amount is $50 month
At present the United States is paying pen
sions to- about 10000 widows of veterans
about 10000 from the World War, $4,000 from
the Spanish-American war, and 5000 from the
Civil war;
The number of children and other depen-
dents receiving payments is about $780, 900, most
ly as result of the World war;
Twenty-Five years ago the United States was
paying pension to the dependents of over 3OO,-
900 Civil war veterans, ALMOST half a century
after the conflict began.
Pensions for veterans themselves have fol-
lowed distinct cycle. First awards are granted
to those injured in service. Then to those with
disabilities aggravated by service. Next those in
need become eligible. Finally, all who served
are granted pensions-The Charlotte Observer.

WASHINGTON IS preparing for what prob
w ably will be the last reunion of the Grand
Army of the Republic. The soldiers of the Con-
federacy have dwindled until it is almost i'm
possible to hold meeting. Veterans of the
World War are now active but they might do
some serious thinking as they view the fast dis
appearing armies of the North and the South.
They might reach the conclusion that the army
of Time stands with fixed bayonets, against
which no charge prevail, and in conflict
where there is no Armistice Day.
