. McKENNEY'S BRIDGE QUIZ
No Trick to Win when You Can Read Opponents Cards
BY VIM. E. MCKINNEY
Americas Gard Authority

One of the most interesting con-
tests in the summer national tour
nament is the Monmouth County
Championship, for which Victor h
Lindlahr donates special trophy
Each afternoon and evening there
is an open duplicate game. A player
may enter as many of these games
as he wishes and his five best scores
are selected, the player with the
highest percentage winning the
championship.
John F. Eek of Hasbrouck Heights,
N. j., won the Lindlahr trophy this
year. Here is an interesting hand he
played.
AS soon as the dummy went down,
Eek felt he could count South for
a six-card spade suit--otherwise
without the ace and king, he would
not be justified in making the three
spade bid. Dummy won the first
trick and declarer then cashed the
ace of diamonds. He led the ten of
diamonds, only to have North ruff.
North led the four of spades, a
diamond was discarded from dunn
my and Eck's king won.
Now Eek could count South for
five diamonds and six spades. AT
this point he cashed the ace of clubs
and led the jack.

yet gone. I want to expand those
social gains an dto make them abso-
lutely secure by building beneath
them a solid foundation Of economic
recovery.
You cannot have the benefits of
social security unless you have a
job. You cannot get the benefits
Of the National Labor Relations
Act, of unemployment insurance or
of the Wages and Hours Act unless
you have a job.
To spread the benefits of such
legislation to all our people, to make
them work, to make them sound, we
must have a Nation Of men pro-
ductively employed, creating the
goods the Nation needs, earning
the money with which to support
themselves and their families in a
decent American way.
Let's look for a moment at the
picture we find in this country.
Let's look at both sides Of the pic
ture.
We see a land filled with more
natural wealth than any country on
earth, land with mineral riches
underground and bounteous crops on
the surface of the earth. We see
a skilled population, able and will
ing to work; men who know how
to convert these natural resources
into the things we all want-food,
clothing, shoes, automobiles, houses
and radios. That is the bright side
Of the picture.
Now look at the other side of the
picture-at many of the men, wom-
en- and children whose lives depend
on industry. We see under-nour-
