Bidding went: South, Heart;
West, diamonds; East, 2-No
Trumps, on his twice stopped
hearts and two side Aces; West,
3-Diamonds, to make certain that
his side held no unstopped black
suit; East. 3-No Trumps, which
was an excellent contract.
The opening lead was the 9 Of
hearts, a better lead than the J.
Declarer's Q took the trick. When
only 5 cards of a suit are missing
there are 60 chances in 100 that
the missing cards will be held SO.
Declarer knew this and he wanted
to score spade trick, heart
tricks, 6 diamond tricks and 1 club
trick. That single overtricl looked
good to kina. He even hoped foE 8
extra tricks, in case North held
one Of the two high missing hon.
ors. A moments thought should
have told him that without an Ace,
South should hold the K-Q of both
black suits, as he opened the bid
ding. {
Dummy was put in lead with tho
Q of diamonds. Still thinking Of
11-odd suppose, the 9 Of spades
was led from dummy, and finessed,
losing to South's @. Back came
the K Of hearts, taking declarer's
Ace. He led his last diamond, only
to see South discard the 3 Of
spades. North held diamonds nice
ly blocked. There was nothing to
do but take dun1my's two diamond
tricks, then lead a low spade from
dummy. If North held the Xxx of
spades declarer still could go game,
with 8 tricks in spades, in hearts,
in diamonds and the Ace of
clubs. The spade finesse lost to
South's K, and three heart tricks
were run, putting down the con-
tract a trick.
Any careful player in East's po-
sition would have gone game, by
making a safety play. This
would consist Of giving defenders
a single diamond trick, when first
that suit was led. The winner Of
the diamond trick would have led a
heart, taking out declarer's last
stop to that suit. Then East could
have gone ahead with his dia-
monds. The result Of such careful
play would have been: / trick in
spades, 2 tricks in hearts, s tricks
In diamonds and the Ace Of clubs.

Legislature Now Divided
Three Ways Over Liquor

get together.
IT the county control group in the
east stands pat, as it has already an
nounced it will, and refuses to APP
prove anything but a continuation of
the county control plan, it can effec-
lively and effectually defeat any eff
fort to adopt a State-cOunty control
plan, most political observers here
readily agree. But the State control
group and the drys together can also
effectually iOlock the extension of the
county control plan to any more coun-
ties and will probably form a coalition
against any expansion of the present
county control system if the county
control group remains obdurate and
stubborn and refuses to play ball or
compromise on any other control plan
a good many observers believe. For
the drys dislike the present county
control system even more than a
State control system, most of them
now agree, with the result that they
are now expected to fight any extern
sion of county control as well as any
move towards State control unless
such law will provide for a State
wide referendum.
Strategy of Drys.
But the matter does not stop with
the likelihood that the legislature
may refuse to extend county control
to any more counties. For if the east
ern county control advocates get too
uncompromising and antagonize the
State-county control advocates from
the Piedmont and western counties
and refuse to play ball with them,
there is a very real and definite pos
sibility that this group may join
present county acts under which IL
counties are now operating liquor
stores, it is now admitted. This would
result in the State being entirely dry
again and a reversion to the old boot
] leg system for the entire State There
is no doubt but this is exactly what
the drys are hoping and working for.
1t is already clearly evident that the
liquor control advocates from the
Piedmont and western counties will
not vote either for any liquor control
plan calling for Statewide referen-
dunn or for complete county control.
The reason for this is that in a State
wide referendum they are certain that
the boOtleggers and Republicans
would join forces with the drys and
defeat any liquor control plan that
might be submitted, at least in their
counties. They are opposed to county
control without State supervision be-
cause so many of the Piedmont and

General Motors Demands Guarantee
Against wild Cat U.A.W. Strikes

DETROIT, Nov. 15.-(UP)-
President William S. Knudsen of
General Motors Corporation last
night gave notice to the United
Automobile Workers union that it
would have to give its guarantee
against wildcat" strikes before
a new contract will be considered.
Three hundred union delegates
from 60 General Motors plants
early last night rejected a pro-
posed agreement supplanting last
winters strike settlement pact and
incorpating the unions pledge to
prevent unauthorized sit down
strikes.
The rejection of the proposed
new agreement climaxed almost
five months of negotiation be-
tween the corporation and the
Committee for Industrial Organ
ization union to amend the per
manent peace" pact signed last
winter at the termination of the
"A day General Motors strike.
Martin, in an address to the
delegates urged that the proposed
agreement be turned down. He
said that the committee of II
union officials who had participat-
ed in the General Motors negotia-
tons also recommended rejection

ton and central figure in the

The convention, in rejecting
the agreement which ignored the
unions demand for sole collective
bargaining rights, elimination Of
the north-South differential, blank
ct wage increases, and elimination
of the six months probationary"
for seniority privileges, empha-
sized it could not accept corpora
ton discipline for unauthorized
strikes"
"The convention proposed, and
it is our position, that discipline
for unauthorized strikes is up to
the unon," Martin said. "The car
ryng out Of the agreement is a
mutual affair"

commenting upon the proposed

to the labor board to decide
whether a nationwide election in
