Masters Slow Bidding fingers Aged Kbitzer
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY America's Card Authority

One of the funniest incidents at the national tournament at Asbury Park occurred at table where en old gentleman had pulled Up his chair to kibitz. Generally, kibitzing is not permitted at the national championships except in the arena; but probably the tournament drec- tor did not want to be rude to the old fellow, or possibly he had not yet seen the kibitzer. Only one thing is certain-this kibitzer had never played in a tournament, as you will see from the jam he got into.
 He was sitting behind the North player. South opened the bidding with one spade, and North had problem. With the ace ard one spade, he cannot bid three spades, as that would indicate he had nor- nal support. Two spades would be sign-of, and his hand Is too strong for that. His hearts and diamonds are good, but five clubs to the eight he hesitated to bid two clubs on that holding.
 One no trump would be. a sign of. While pondering whether to bid two clubs or two no trump, the old gentleman arose, thoroughly dis gusted and said. "You call these fel- lows expertsl For five minutes he has been trying to figure out what t0 do and all he has iS A sifnY1le two no trump response. I'm going home"
 A sequel to the story is that the declarer did not bid two no trump he bid two clubs and the final contract was three no trump. But the club bid made 1t difficult for the opponent to open that suit, and as a result, three no trump was made. The opponents complained about. the. kibitzer's remark, but when they looked for Dad, he had gone home, convinced that the

proper response was two no trump.
 Declarer won the opening lead with dummy's king of diamonds 'i nen he cashed the ace of spades and led another. East won and led the other diamond.
 It is obvious, with all hands in sight, that If East had ever started the clubs, the defenders could have cashed four clubs and declarer would still have had to lose a spade. But North's two-club bid effectually discouraged East from opening the suit at either opportunity.

No Idleness- in
u. S. Next Year

Washington, Mar. 1S-INS-The
huge national defense and British
aid program will cause American
unemployment to just about disap-
pear by May, 1882, according 10
estimates in the hands Of OPM Of
ficials today.
The number out OF work then. it
was said, viii be smaller than those
Idle in the boom days of 1929. Just
before the crash of the stock mar
ket 10 years ago approximately
1,925,00O persons were unemploy-
ed
Present number Of persons unem-
ployed is bout 100000. while the
peak number of persons out Of
work during the height Of the de
preston in 1898 was 13,S00.000.
Labor officials said that the
l,925,0Q0 unemployed in 1929 com.
ptised a normal load of idle for
country with the wealth of the
United States. They added that
il the number OF idle dropped below
that figure by next May unemploy-
ment would virtually disappear.
All of the estimates were made
on the presumption that the ma
tional defense program would be
carried out as now planned Az
a matter of fact one labor official
declared, there may be a shortage
OF labor, particularly in some
trades, by 1912.
These estimates, as yet unpub.
lished, say that between 4,500.000
and 6,500.OO0 Jobs will be created
