AS I have often said In my
articles before, B. j. Becker has
a very fine partnership tempera-
ment. Here Is a hand In which
he made a fine protective play
to prevent his partner from
making a mistake.
Dummy played low on the
opening lead, and Becker won
with the ace in order to keep
declarer In the dark as to the
location of the king. A low club
return was won by the king.
and two rounds of trumps put
Becker in again. Again he led
q club, knocking out the ace, and
West followed with the Jack.
Now Becker saw that Vests
best return would be Q diamond,
putting declarsr to the guess of
which honor to play. At worst
he might guess right by play
ing the ten. and 20 the queen
would be established for . heart
discard. But this discard would
not help, ~ declarer could be
counted for four hearts.
But Becker also saw that West
might have trouble reading the
situation and might lead hearts
at the cost Of . trick. So Beck
er overlook the jack Of clubs
with his queen to lead the king
of diamonds. South ruffed, but
now had to open the hearts him
self and give up two tricks. Thus
he made only two odd, which
turned out . very poor score for
him.

a different way to meet the vast

excerpts from the diary Of Ben

FRANCE, AU REVoIR!

Forewell, France, until in some hop

Painful the words, otter years
waiting ard hoping that somehow out
of the wreck Of France something
might have been sovoeed for free

have felt and who still feel that the
French people are good, and clean, and
Wholesome.
Nearly q year ago, France suffered
the humiliation Of military detect.
With more than q million Of her sons
in German prison comps, virtual hos
toees, to have expected her to continue
the war in Africa, or in the Near Eost,
would have been to expect much. There
we're some who had learned to expect
much of France, however. Hope died
slowly.
France chose. No vote was possible
in the confusion of surrender Whether
the French people ever we're, or ore
now, back of Peton, or Dorlon, or lo-
val, no one knows. There is room for
the erovest doubt.
Nevertheless, the Petoins, and OAR

items, which have given lip service to
Foscsm, which was not. They have
opened the gates Of Tunisio and Syria
to the German invader; they have
chosen to ride surfboord on the "wove

expect the remainder Of the French
navy to be launched at any moment.
For the moment, the Frenohmen Of

For the moment, such force as France

That is the foct, and that is the only

Now all this is mere chicken
feed-mere fish food-in the
consideration Of the billions
which Congress posses out.
Yet it is the perfect example
Of the foet that there is no
more sincerity about economy
in Congress than there is in
the moon. Most recent chance
Congress had to get tight was
on the question Of form parity
payments. The House passed
the bill with an appropriation
OF $2l2,OOO,OOO. The Senote
raised it to $3.50, 900, 900 and
the House concurred.. In the

still $2l 100000 above l94l.

mite handling the bill, all but

tions.

TOKYO - The newspaper Yo- miuri reported in a dispatch from Bangkok, Thailand, that the United States and Thailand have concluded an agreement where by the United States will turn over to the South Asia kingdom two 2,000-ton Warships and 50 or so anti-aircraft weapons.
 The Bangkok correspondent said that Thailand has been re ceiving large quantities of war materials since President Roose- vet and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill held their his toric Atlantic conference.
 Yomiuri said that the new az reement is part of the British American program to force Thai land to the so-called democratic front.

LONDON, Nov. - The Berlin radio reported that General AL phonse Juin had left Rabat, Mor- occo for Algiers where he will officially take over his post of commander in chief of French forces in North Africa. General Juin succeeds General Maxine Weygand as leader of the French North African forces.
 The Berlin radio also announc- ed that other high Vichy officials were making tours of inspection throughout the French North Af- rican colonies.

PRESIDENT FAVORABLE TO ANTI STRIKE LEGISLATION

WASHINGTON. Nov. - The President has told Congress to start writing its own ticket on strike curbing legislation. The bill generally agreed upon at the White House would outlaw de- fense industry strikes until all avenues of negotiation, concilja- tion and mediation had been ex- hausted. It also would contain a drastic provision authorizing the President to authorize compul- sory arbitration in any individ- ual dispute that could not be set tied by other means.
 Members of the House labor committee expressed the opinion that the bill would be sent to the House floor in almost the same form in which is has gen erally been agreed upon now.
 They said some penalty pro- visions probably would be writ ten into the measure but they emphasized that these penalties were necessary for enforcement.

Praise for President

Nichi Nichi praised President Roosevelt for expressing sincere hopes for Pacific peace, and for postponing his Thanksgiving trip 10 Warm Springs, Ga, to meet Kurusu. However, Nichi Nichl said that Japan will not be turn ed from her objective of estab- fishing the East Asia prosperity sphere and ending the Chinese war. Declared the newspaper;
 We must show unshakeable determination in overcoming the present national crisis
 The Japanese journal asserted that many intelligent Americans such as Robert Hutchins, presi- dent of the University of Chic ago, fail to understand why a crisis should exist in the Pacific when neither country is threaten ing each others territory or in tereSts.
