Speaking of sabotage, in

governmental wrangling, you
should have a look at the things
that went on when this was
very young country, try
ing to establish domestic tran
guilty and command respect of
foreign powers
The thing of wonder is that the
United States were ever united
and that they stayed united.
Consider that a commanding
general of the United States
armies sought and received q
pension from a foreign potentate.
Despite that, this general played
a big part in winning the Rev
olution, opening the West and
conducting the War of 1912.
"The Admirable Trumpeter"
Doubleday Doran: 5000 is a
biography of this man by Thorn
as Robson Hay and M. r. Wer-
Der. General James Wilkinson's
chief fame today rests on the
charges he brought against
Aaron Burr and was unable to
prove, at least to the satisfaction
of q jury in the court presided
over by Chief Justice John Mar
shall.
The authors, apparently bent
on giving Wilkinson as clear .
reputation as possible, docu-
mented their work heavily and
produced a lively, readable ac-
count of a clustering, egotistical
adventurer whose patriotism
sometimes got the better Of his
ambition.
A general of the Revolution In
his twenties, wilkinson had the
respect of Washington, Arnold,
Gates and other leaders until he
mixed in an intrigue that ended
in Washington's removal. Of him

ana from French for Jefferson;
sent Zebulon Pike on his famous
western exploration; died penni-

king of trumps. When both hands
followed, only the diamond split
had to be considered. Against a

have to develop q squeeze. He
planned to cash all his top cards
before trying out the diamonds.
With his mind fixed on this plan,
South, intending to lead low
spade, inadvertently played the
five of diamonds.
It now looked as though this
blocking of the diamond suit
would kill any possible squeeze,
and that declarer would have to
rely on q fair diamond split.
Dummy put up the ace of dia-
monds, and two more rounds of
trumps were led. Then the queen
of diamonds was cashed.
The diamond break was re-
vealed, and South could do MOTH

and pray. Dummy let 60 the club
