MANY SQUEEZE PATTERNS

THERE is HARDLY any limit
to the number of possible variations
of squeeze plays. All of them are of
course founded on the principle that,
If player holds enough cards to
guard his winner or winners in one
suit, he cannot also retain enough
to protect those in some other suit
or suits. But the arrangement of the
cards can extend over vast range
The player who learns the main
ones, including the principles that
underlie them, will every once in a
great while unearth a combination
WHICH is new to him, but which he
figures out successfully, to his great
delight and profit.

The big question, however, was
Britain's future relations with So
Wet Russia.
Poles Charge Aggression.
Britain had the charge of the
Polish Embassy here that Russia
violated the Polish frontier by an
"act of direct aggression" A SINH
lar complaint against Germany,
made in London by Polish Ambas-
sador Count Edward Raczynski, who
invoked the British Polish mutual
assistance treaty after German
armies invaded Poland September
l, brought Great Britain into the
war against Germany September 3.
Britain and France, which also en-
tered the war in fulf1llment of treaty
obligations to Poland, are bound to
help defend Polish independence
against any aggression.
1t was stated authoritatively Bri-
tain had brief report from her
Ambassador to Moscow, Sir William
Seeds, but was waiting fuller in
formation.
CompIcating the involved situa-
ton was the Soviet governments
declaration it would pursue policy
OF neutrality with Britain. Further
more, the Polish Ambassador re-
mained in Moscow. The British dip
lomatic view was that the attitude of
the Polish government itself was not
clear, and that a government in
flight from home soil cannot operate.
Decision on Parliament Today.
The cabinet was expected to decide
today whether Parliament should
be called before its scheduled meet
ing Wednesday, when Prime Minis
ter Chamberlain was expected to
make statement on the situation.
The British press, meanwhile, Wig
orously attacked Russia for what it
called the stab in the back" and
betrayal of Poland.
The authoritative Times, which
often reflects government views,
said:

1917 and was converted after the war
as an aircraft carrier.
''The next of kin will be informed
as soon as information can be OBJ
tanned as to the names of the sur
Vivors."
Aircraft carriers left in the navy
are the Ark Royal, the Glorious-a
sister ship of the Courageous, the
Furious, the Eagle and the Hermaes.
In 1918, before the Courageous
was converted from cruiser, she
claimed an Atlantic record with a
crossing to the United States in less
than four days. She made the re-
turn journey almost as rapidly.
Britain More Determined.
The British government was rep
resented today as more than ever
determined to fight Germany to q
finish, despite the new situation
created by Soviet Russia's invasion
Of Poland. Just how important
these new complications would be
was not Immediately clear.
The government continued to
study the situation, but remained
silent pending receipt of more de-
tailed information. The possibility
of action such as Russian forces took
against Poland yesterday, informed
sources said, had been taken into
account by Britain and France from
the moment the German Russian
non-aggression pact was signed Au-
gust a.

Fear Of Prison
Causes Suicide

SAN DIEGO. Oct. 10. CUP)-
Fear of going to prison for mail
fraud was blamed today for the sui
eide of Jesse H. Shreve, So, a lead
ing real estate and investment brok-
er during the western boom days.
Shreve drove to nearby Sweetwa-
ter Lake yesterday, ran a garden
hose from the exhaust pipe to the
interior of his automobile, started
the motor and killed himself with
the fumes.
A few hours earlier he had learn
ed that the U. S. supreme court
declined to review the mail fraud
case in which he and his brother,
Archie, received four-year senten-
ces to prison. The Shreve brothers
case was heard twice in federal
court at Tucson. Ariz., in connec-
ton with operations of the Security
Building and Loan association, the
Century investment CO., and the
Arizona holding co.

Changes from low, through Sec

cruising gear, are entirely automa-
tic. Gears, incidentally, are always
in mesh-so that there can be no
clashing of gears or chipping of
gear teeth. This means also that the
engine serves as a brake on down
grades.
To stop the car the driver simply
steps on the brake. With no clutch
to press and no gears to shift,
there's nothing for the driver to
do but steer, "step on it,, and stop.
The feature is available at an ex-
ira cost in all three series of cars.
