Opening Iead--A

However, the picture of cards in one suit at least is plainly painted and pr. N. Tinker of Brooklyn turned this knowledge to good acc count In today's hand, after North had captured the first trick with c trump and returned 6 club, posing the question of an immediate finesse.

l0LANNlNG our christmas pictures as very much like planning our Christmas shopping. Far in advance we resolve to do M early. Day after day we resolve to do 1t early. And then ell of Q sudden the time is up, we can't do 1t early-and we don't do 1t well.
 So, here's sound advice. Do t now! Get yourself pencil and paper and work out c Christmas scenario, Q series of pictures that will tell the whole Christmas story and give material for the pictorial Christmas book you have always wanted to make.
 Then, first thing tomorrow, lay in . proper supply of supersonsltive film and amateur flood or flash bulbs, 50 they will Do ready to hand whan Christmas comes.
 Don't skimp in planning your pic turo series. Remember, It's an occa' sion that comes only once in c year and even # the children are still young, they are growing up rapidly as far as Christmas is concerned.
 You will want at least one picture --perhaps several-of decorating Che Christmas tree. # you use solf.tlmer, the whole family can appear in ono picture. Another must" will deal with hanging uI the Christmas stockings. Other pic tures can be related to these-fo' example, the children peoping uI the chimney to make sure it is biz enough for Santa's entrance. A fioot bulb, tucked away in . corner of thu

The confereeS, summoned here

John w. OLeary, chairman of
the executive committee, said:
Business, labor and the Gov.
ernment are all eager for the
building program to go forward
vigorously. No one of these ele-
ments wants to obStruct recov.
cry. Through misunderstand-
ing or through possessing only
a partial understanding of the
factors which induce building
and retard it, they may be do
ing so.
ITO the extent these re-
strictive factors lie outside the
control of business, and are the
result of obsolete municipal
codes, inequitable taxes, or other
matters which lie within the
realm of governmental action,
then we must look to Govern
ment for its cooperation to clear
the tracks"
