with 2-Spades. East decided he had
better not monkey with this because
his partners failure to double had
made him expect weak hand op-
posite him. AS a consequence the
opponents were allowed to play the
deal at 2-Spades, not, doubled, at
which they were set just one trick.
While East's failure to bid is SUBJ
ject to some criticism, he had a
pretty fair argument because his
partner is known as one who will
keep the bidding open with almost
nothing in fourth-hand position. 1t
so happens that their side can make
8 clubs without difficulty, so it was
a sad duplicate result for East and

Declaring the white papers stipu-
lation that a maximum of 75,OO0
Jews will be permitted to enter
Palestine within the next five years
cannot but be interpreted as a
sharp political reduction having no
relationship to the principle of
economic absorptive capacity" DR..
Goldman said Palestine is capable
Of absorbing 100000 Jews a year for
the next 20 years.
Earlier today, Rabbi Isadore Bres-
lau, president of the District Zionist
Organization, issued a statement de-
claring the impending British de-
cision to scuttle pledges for Jewish
rebuilding in Palestine will be the
greatest disaster for Jewry."
American Jews are determined
to resist with all moral force the
betrayal by Great Britain which
condemns Jewish Palestine to the
tragic fate of Czecho-Slovakia. :"
Rabbi Breslau said.
Washington Jews, meanwhile, were
called upon to meet at all synagogues
Friday night and Saturday morning
IN special services to express the

The call was issued as the result
OF a meeting of representatives of

Organization, the Poale Zion, Labor

Zionist organization.
These developments followed

yesterday by delegation of leading
Jews of Washington, who condemned
the British declaration as "a sur

delegation asked the British Am

foreign office asserted the British

plan "dooms the Jewish popula-
tion Of Palestine to the status of a
permanent minority"
"The effect of the plan," the pro-
test said, would inevitably lead to
a surrender by the British govern
ment of the Jewish population in
the Holy Land to the mercies of the
intolerant rule of those whose acts
of violence and cruelty have tainted
the soil, sacred to Jew and Christian
alike, with the blood of innocent
men, women and children during
the last three years of unspeakable
terror.
"The plan would further have the
effect of closing the gates of the
Jewish homeland to the refugees

Early losses running to a point

more from lack of bids than any
pressure of offerings. Transfers for

Steels, bit shaky at the start,
attracted late support when it was
officially estimated this weeks mill
operations would be at COL per cent
of capacity against 593 last week.
The expansion was somewhat more
than had been predicted and was
in the face of sharp recession in
the southern district.
Brokerage analysts were not par
ticularly disturbed by the indifferent
performance of the stock list. Most
were of the opinion technical fac
tors. including a further correction
of the substantial July upturn, were
the principal barriers at this time.
Business news was still an optimistic
influence
An assortment of traders stood
aside on the theory new European
crisis was at least possibility in the
next few weeks. 1t was remembered,
though, that in recent months
whenever the markets have faltered,
overseas war talk has been a con-
venient explanation.

the Municipal Finance Officers As
sociation of the United States and
Canada.
The clearing house report asserted
that: "A great majority of cities
reporting improved financial posi-
tions said this was due in part to
better tax collections and operation
on cash income Other reasons given
were improved local conditions, bet
ter business, lack of debt, new
sources of revenue and use of Fed

"Cities which are holding their
own but can gain no ground at

Sale Of Savings Bonds
Rises Sharply Over 1888

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Treasury
receipts from the sale of United
States savings bonds in July totaled
around $85,000000 compared with
$43,00O,000 in the same month last
year.
Sales for the fiscal year 1899
amounted to $712,OOO,OOO compared
with S5O5 100000 the year before,
and, from all present indications,
1910 will continue the uptrend.
The exceedingly low interest rates
on high grade securities and reduc-
tions in some States of the rate of
interest on savings deposits have
stimulated public interest in these
securities which yield about 20 per
cent if held 10 years to maturity.
