to use his deuces and treys eff =

contract.
Pepper, sitting South, won
the opening lead with the ace of
diamonds. He cashed the ace
of spades, dropping the queen.
Next he led the ace of clubs.

king in dummy. A third club
was led from dummy, which
Pepper ruffed with the king to
shut out West. He led the deuce
of spades and finished the seven
in dummy when West played
low. A fourth club was led for
South to ruff with the jack.
Now q low heart to the king

carded diamonds. When the
little four of clubs was led, Wess

Pepper had his ambitious grand

MATURE vs.. THE IVA

Some Bureaucratic foces must be
turning red down in the Southeast,
whsrs the immensely costly Tennessee
Valley Authority hos gained virtual
monopoly OF the power supply Of large
oreos by the procedure Of forcing the
prixnfe utilities out Of business.
This years Southeastern rainfall was
SO per cent below normal. The woter
level in some Of TWAS reservoirs is
down so per cent. This means, accord
ing to Choirron Olds Of the Federal
Power Commission, thot there will be
9 900, coo kilowott power shortage in
the Southeast before the yeor.s> end.
One inevitable result Of thot is de-
mond that tens Of millions more Of the
toxpoyers' money be spent for new n.y.
dfo plants for the IVA. But those
p'onts can't be built overnight. And
50 it hos been necessary to coll upon
the privote industry for heIp-ond
quick and effective help. Seventeen
private power companies, in gigantic

the SOLE GUARANTEE or LIBERTY

Only one kind Of people IS going to
emerge from the current world crisis
with their freedom, and thot is the peo-
Die who want and are resolutely deter
mined to keep it.
There has been genuine concern on
the port of thousands Of American citi-
zens os to whether they ore losing our
liberty. We have complete confidence
that we are not. The source Of thot con-
fdence lies in the conviction that the
American people love their freedom
and are determined to keep it.
1t is certainly true that in the pres
ent ocute condition Of the world, power
tends in all countries to concentrate.
The most democratic countries in the
world, focino predatory countries or
oonized for nothing but stark, realistic
cotton, have had to place themselves in
q position to oct with equal decision.
Thot means temporary surrender. to
certain extent, Of ordinary democratic
procedures.
This is not as new to the United
Stotes as some Of US like to fancy. Wen
dell WilIkie recently mode this cIeor in
pointing out that almost oil OF the
oreot decisions which have placed the
United Stotes in its present world posi-
ton, we're executive decisions. The
Monroe Doctrine, the Open Door Pol
icy, the expulsion Of Macmillan from
Mexico the Panama ConoI-olI these
things were done without voting for
extended debote. Yet todoy. by and
Jorge, the American people believe they
we're we'll done.
Today there is q strange inconsist-
ency about these things Some Of the
same people who have criticized the
President for assuming too much power
criticize in the same breath the efforts
to control the price spiroI as not having
enough teeth, as oinIess and inde-
cisive. Some Of the same people who
criticized the destroyer-boses deal as
arbitrary, now cirque thot in some way
advantage is being token Of Congress
beeouse the President hos put squorely
up to Il the decision as to whether sol-'
diers sholj remain soldiers while the
menace which mode them soldiers con-
time to exist.
Lincoln once sold to q miIitory COM
rnonder oecused of seeking q military
dictatorship, "Give US victories, and |
will risk the dictatorship"
So today. Give US the action that will
make US strong oooinst any possible
aggression, thot will prevent initiation
and avoid the obvious perls thot sur
round Us, ond we will risk our freedom
Nobody is going to take away
American freedom. becouse Americans
love It, and are resoIutely determined
to keep it.
