Post Office Department officers con-

suggested in 1888 by the late Louis
McHenry Howe, then secretary to

that fact doubtless will be taken into

Your partner opens the bidding with
a diamond, second hand bids heart.
Many players now bid two clubs, al
though the correct procedure is to
pass. The reason for the pass, OF
course, is that unless your partner
can rebid, you can get nowhere: and
if you do make a free bid Of two clubs
with that hand, you are not going to
play it at that spot, since your partner,
with a fair hand, will be encouraged
and possibly will get you to an un-
makable game contract.
In spite of the fact that they should
realize this, the players who make a
free bid of two clubs with such a
hand always blame their partners for
the ensuing trouble. Of course, if
your partner bids diamond and the
next player does not overcall, you
must bid two clubs But now you can
sign off by rebidding your clubs in
minimums. But after a free two-club
bid your partner can never read that
you are signing of.

OR LET us consider the following
hand: You open the bidding as
dealer with one club, holding
Spades Qxx
Hearts xxx
Diamonds Xxx

Your partner responds with one
spade, fourth hand bids two diamonds.
With no intervening bid, you have to
respond to your partners one-over-
one, but an opponent has intervened.
You have minimum hand and there
fore should leave things up to your
partner rather than make a rebid
yourself without the values to justify
it. And yet player after, player bids
two spades with this hand in this
situation and wonders why he and his
partner get to game and then 60 down.
Then there is the "merry-go-round"
rebid. You are second hand and

Labor in Good Position

That suggests two avenues of ap- proach for the Council, a conserva- tive stand or one sufficiently liberal to stave off more radical proposals Of other groups. A too conservative report might have a reverse effect and smother any chance for a middle-of f-the-road program. The President probably will weigh one recommendation against another, and he is in good position to bar gam.
 One phase : the labor program must mark time for the Supreme Court, for in February the justices are scheduled to hear arguments on cases involving the right of la Dor to collective bargaining. The President can go ahead on minimum wages and maximum hours as he sees fit. But on this he must wait.
 An adverse decision might alter the entire program, even result in a constitutional amendment pro- posal. MT. Roosevelt is definitely committed to the theory Of collec- tive bargaining and undoubtedly will take whatever steps are neces- sary. On the other hand, favor able ruling might make further .ac- tion unnecessary.

Silk Shades Give Soft Glow

THERE is subtility in the light
that gloWs through a silk
shade. and many decorators are
using them for the room that
needs the softness of plated folds
and the mellowness obtained by
placing two tones of fabric one
over the other.
Two tones Of China silk, one to
be used for a plain lining and
the other for a gathered outside
covering will make an attractive
shade. Before you buy the ma
terial it is best to experiment
with samples one over the other
trying them both in daylight and
over an artificial light. You will
also need a roll of silk binding
tape matching the top color of the
shade. This tape is to wrap the
wire frame. And fancy braid Ell
Their in gold, silver or a harmonic
ing tone of silk is used to bind the
top and bottom of the shade. Use
cotton thread to match the out
side tone of the silk.

and wrap a rubber band around
it as shown here at A. Working
from the inside end of the tape
wrap the frame as shown at B.
