Mr.. Dreyfus.

Mr.. DreyfuS three-club bid was
somewhat doubtful, inasmuch as he
was forced to rebid his four-card spade
suit after his partner returned to three
diamonds. This last bid encouraged
North to contract for the game in
spades, and finally East's double was
very poor, but paved the way for de-
clarer to make an unusual squeeze
play.
West opened the king Of hearts and,
receiving an encouraring signal, con-
tinued with the ace and queen After
trumping the third round in dummy,
declarer played the ace of spades. then
finessed East for the queen, and
finally laid down the king. being graft
fed to see that the trumps were
evenly divided.
At this point, the contract still
looked far from promising, but Mr..
Dreyfus, figuring that East.s double
must at least include diamond STOP
per, played his last trump, discsrding
a small club from dummy. East was
now In peculiar squeeze. He could
not afford to throw a diamond and.
fearing an end play in clubs, he de-
cided to unblock by discarding the
queen. Declarer then played his only
diamond to the ace and led q small
club from dummy. East went up with
his king. whereupon Mr.. Dreyfus let
him hold the trick and on the next
round the two remaining clubs drop
ped, so that he made his doubled con-
tract.
II East had chosen to play the 10
OF clubs, Mr.. Dreyfus would have gone
up with his ace, then played a small
club. (West, who had passed orig
inally, cohd hardly hold the king of
clubs in addition to his strong heart
suit) East would then have been
forced to lead up to diamonds tenace.

1t is only 100 pages long, but there

Macmillan Co. And it deserves to
be read by as many people as there
are Americans.
Liberal and a Democrat.
Mr.. Armstrong; little book is sui
generis. For it is highly personal
document, written by an American,
liberal and Democrat; written by
a man who is wise in the ways Of the
World-Mr. Armstrong is the editor of
Foreign Affairs, an inveterate trav-

1t is an apologize for liberal 6emo-

he challenges the relationships In all

Democracy Versus Foes.
Mr.. Armstrong sees and asserts
that the struggle in the world is not
between the White Catilines and the
Reds. The struggle is between the
defenders of liberty and democracy
and the parliamentary state, against
the adversaries Of those principles.
On the one side are all those parties,
from the Conservative to the Socialist,
who are out to defend political free
dom and apply the liberal and demo-
cratic method Of preserving an in
ternal balance of power. And on the
other side are those whose views Of the

he believed was forced upon him by
conditions in the world over which he
had no control. He had struggled to

Should America surrender the seas

War Sentiment Widespread.
Today there are many who have
risen to denOunCe American entry into
the war, and President Wilson's course
in particular. But at the time-19l7-
Mr.. Wilson was backed up by an al
most universal sentiment throughout
the country. He abhorred war. He
told his friends privately that he
feared the European war; unless soon
ended, would mean the defamation
Of the white race
Apart from this, the loss of life
amounted to about $4,000 persons
and the wounded numbered about
$4,000. Indirectly the cost in human
life was much greater on account Of
the diseases contracted in war service
and the dislocation of families due to
the helplesSness of the injured.
What has the World War taught?
Like all wars, it was fought at the
time by the rank and file of the Nation
because of a belief that vital principle
was at issue.
New Threat Arises.
IN the 20 years that have passed
autocracy has raised its head IN Ger
many once more. The peace of the
world is still unsettled. Physical force
rarely conquers peoples, though it may
defeat armies. The biggest disaster
flowing from the war was the economic
catastrophe.
The rest of the world never did see

people from their plight.
The world has not yet learned
international cooperation. The cry
OF foreign ENHANCEMENT and the re-
minders of 1917 as costly expert
ment in world coalition against

public opinion cool to the idea OF
aiding other peoples.
Today, the three democracies Of
Britain, France and the United
States stand alone, each anxious for
the help of the others in assuring
world peace, but America, the richest
of all, is too stepped in her own prob
lens to recognize that peace will come
only when there is Unemployment
throughout the world, and when pro-
duction is stimulated by the making
of good, for peacetime uses instead of
for armament.

legal or insurrectionary coupe d'etat
in rigid and permanent form. All
other issues are inferior to this issue.
New economic freedoms are neces-
sary; conceded. Mr. Armstrong is
never more eloquent than when plead
ing for the application OF the liberal
spirit in the economic field. But he
sees-what too many fail to see-that
political freedom is the condition Of
all freedom; that to throw it away for
security, annual wages, national honor
or even the welfare of all workers.
is to disarm ones self before an un-
known destiny.
Measures Dictatorships.
Mr.. Armstrong takes up the die
tatorships one by one, measuring
them by those yardsticks which have
been the implements Of civilized man
kind for a thousand years. Shall we
60 to them for art? he asks. And
answers with the statements of Ger
man, italian and Russian pundits.
Shall we go to them for science? he
asks. And answers with words out
of the mouths of their own scientists.
For education? For morals? For
statesman like ideas? For religion?
For economic wellbeing? For law?
According to Nazi Reichsminister
Frank, who sweeps aside the civilized
conception that what is not prohibited
is allowed, when no specific law ap-
plies the courts shall mete out punish
ment according to the underlying idea
Of the penal code, or according to
healthy public sentiment.
The model laws" says Mr. Arm
strong, (which certain American pro-
fessors acclaim after spending Sum-
mer in Soviet Russia would be chal-
lenged as return to barbarism if they
were proposed in the United States.
The word law as uttered in Rus
sia is separated from the same word
as used in travel books by American
professors by all that has happened
in penology from the Middle Ages
to this day"
Angry But Not Unfair.
Mr.. Armstrong is angry. but with a
fine, cold anger. And he is often
funny His selections from German,
italian and Russian official literature
are acidly malicious, but they are not
distorted and not unfair.
And Mr. Armstrong comes to the
conclusion that in one thing the die
tators are right There is no point
of contact between their world and
ours. There is no common dictionary;
there are no common definitions ac-
cording to which We and they can
communicate.
The gulf is absolute. And what are
we going to do about it? Fight to
exterminate them? No says, Mr.. Arm
strong, not if we can help it. But he
is aware that, though it takes two to
reach an agreement, it only takes one
to make a war.
I wish I had written this book. I
am glad that I have read it. hope
that it is put in all the high schools,
that Americans may reaffirm their love
Of freedom and prepare to work and
to sacrifice for it.
