When North failed to follow he had to replan the entire play, as he could not afford to lose two trump tricks and still make his contract.
 His next play was to lay down the king, ace and 8 small diamond, rufiing in his own hand. When both North and South followed, he ruffed a heart in dummy and led a diamond from the open hand.
 South was on the spot. If he discarded, West would discard his losing club; so he finally played the trump queen.
 West overruffed and led his last heart, which he permitted North to win, discarding a club from dum- my. North returned . club, which West won.
 Declarer led his last club and ruffed in dummy, and now he led dummy's last diamond. Whatever South played West had to make another trump trick and fulfill his contract. The play required careful handling, as the slightest error might have proven fatal.

The careful declarer plans his play of the hand as soon as the opening lead is made and the dum- my is exposed. but such a plan should always be subject to imme- diate change, if unexpected suit breaks are disclosed.
 In today's hand, the declarer, when he saw the dummy, regarded his hand as very safe. He would have to lose one heart and prob- ably one club, and these. with a trump trick, should be all if the trump suit broke no worse than three and one.
 Many players, holding the South hand, would double Q game con. tract, but North had been silent, and South did not want to tip off

No Strikes by Federals;
 Status Is Defined by FOR

WASHINGTON, July 14.-Presi- dent Roosevelt has made clear that strikes by Federal workers are barred, although he declared such employees are free to join unions
 Unionization of these workers is now being undertaken by the John L. Lewis Committee for Industrial Organization. The President after expressing the opinion they should not have the right to strike. added that civil service rules withhold this privilege.
 He also asserted that since gov- ernment wages are fixed by con- gress and that government enters into no contracts with it's employees, there can be no bargaining about pay.
 MT. Roosevelt's assertions were made at a press conference which dealt briefly with several other sub jects.
 The President declined to com- ment on reports that he and Lewis are near a break. Telling report CTS he would not affirm, or deny, various stories being circulated, he laughingly said that rule applied also to Vice President Gamers de- parture from Washington. MT. Gar ner has gone home to Texas, arous- ing much speculation.
