The correct play was for West to cash the ace and king of dia- monds after winning the first trick with the jack of spades. When the queen of diamonds failed to drop, the contract obviously depended up- on bringing in the club suit. West should lead low club at one, let ting South win with his ten.
 South returned the jack of hearts West playing low and dummy win- ming with the ace. Now a club fin- esse enabled declarer to run the suit, and the ninth trick could be set up in spades, while West still had the queen of hearts to stop that suit.
 It will be noted that there was nothing freakish about the hand, which simply needed logical play for success. West would lose his contract if he took the club finesse
 before losing a club trick. To take
 the finesse, he would have to use dummy'S heart ace. Eventually
 South would win a club trick and
 lead hearts through Vests queen. This would give North and South three heart tricks. together with the spade and club they were always
 bound to win.

1T is undoubtedly true that the
existence of well-built homes f.
nanced under the F.. H. A. program
has had beneficial influence on
the standard of construction in
homes financed outside the limits
of the F. H. A. program. In this
regard we are gratiaed that the

as well as other phases of the F. H.

Minimum Requirements
Credited by Official
With Bettering Work

Standards of quality and dura-
Z been materially raised during the
past two years by the influence ex-
erted on building practices by the
Federal Housing Administration s
minimum construction require
ments, District Director H. H. Dear
ing said today.
Established in September, 1887,
these requirements set a minimum
to which all new residential con-
struction coming under the terms
OF the F. H. AS insured mortgage
system must conform before mort
gage insurance will be granted, Mr..
Dearing explained. He emphasized,
however, that the requirements are
elastic and impose no undue bur-
den on builders or buyers. Rather
they establish minimum by which
sound construction practice in the
essentials of home may be as
spred.
At the outset of the F.. H. A. pro-
gram, national system of mini
mum requirements was put into ef-
feet. Local climatic and other con-
dltionS brought up variations in the
minimum needs of well-built homes
in individual States, and early in
1887, the establishment of minimum
standards by respective States was
undertaken.
Improvements Claimed.
"The District of Columbia was
one of the last sections in the Ma
ton to obtain its own set of mini
mum construction Standards" Mr..
Dearing said. After months of
careful study, on September Is, 1887,
the standards went into effect and
since that time all properties COM
ing under the insured mortgage sys-
tenn have been built in compliance
with these requirements.
Notable improvement in home
building has resulted since the in
auguration of this practice. The
minimum standards have played an
important role in eliminating un-
sound practices which in the past
resulted in poorly constructed, or
JOlaN"Uulil, ilOIlltS. MOI6UVeT, lIlS
establishment of minimum construc-
t1on standards has had the effect
OF placing all builders on an equal
basis insofar as essentials are con-
cerned, because of the necessity for
general compliance with rules gov
erning basic structural items, foun-
cations and framing, etc.
Costs Not Jumped.
1T is on the organic phase of
home construction that the REQUIRE
ments exert the strongest influence.
The requirements treat primarily
with what goes into the bone and
sinew of the house rather than with
exterior details. In this manner.
residential building under F.. H. A.
insurance in the District and ada
cent counties in Maryland and Vir-
glnla has shown a marked degree of
improvement without any noticeable
increase in the costs of construction
The incentive to better design and
more efficient use of materials has
been stimulated by our minimum
standards and today there are hun
dreds of new homes in this area
