After South's speculative vulner-
able jump to three spades, North
thought longingly of trying for a
slam with his very powerful hand
He contented himself with raise to
game, nevertheless, knowing that
his partner was inclined to make
pre-emptive bids on very weak
hands.
West opened the deuce Of hearts,
: dummy winning with the king. East
put up the trump ace on dummy's
return of the spade deuce, and shot
back the queen Of hearts. West
ruffed and returned the nine of
diamonds, recognizing the lead OF
the heart queen as signal to re-
turn the higher Of the remaining
non-trump suits. Had East been
void of clubs, he would have re-
turned his lowest heart rather than
the queen)
East won with the queen of dia-
monds, and decided without hest
tation on his next play But put
yourself in his place to see whether
you'd have had to guess
AS East, you might wonder
whether your partner had another
trump. If he had no more trumps,
perhaps you should try to cash the
ace of diamonds to set the con-
tract at once.
But East noticed that his partner
had played the five of spades on the
first trump lead and the three of
spades to ruff the second round of
hearts. This echo" in trumps
showed that he had another trump;
so East led third round of hearts
to give his partner the setting trick.
Incidentally, East had another
way to discover that his partner had
another trump, although the trump
echo made it unnecessary for him
to think about the hand. South
couldn't have eight trumps and
three hearts, for them he'd have
cashed dummy's top clubs at once.

Liberal Publisher
Fights Axis in
S. America
BY TALBOT LAKE

IMPLACABLE foe of good rela-
i tions between South America and
the United States is the Axis stooge
Francois Spain. Militant foe OF
SPANS Falangist. or pro-fasciSt
party. Is Jorge A. Losada. editor
and publisher of "Norte," maya
zine which seeks to bring about
understanding of the United State:
by our South American cousins
Losada has seen his magazine bar
red and banned in South American
republics for its democratic policy
but has never given in.
The story of this liberal Cuban
newSpaperman and his one-man
crusade Is an amazing yarn OF grit
and pluck. Losada. who had spent
his boyhood in the United States
your correspondent and he found to
their surprise they were classmates
in the same New York City public
school-became a newspaperman
in his native Havana, Cuba. Cor
respondence work brought him back
to the United States in 1880. He
became a writer for "Orbe." a
Cuban magazine. and the Cuban
newspaper. "Diario De La Marina"
In 1880, when no one else sensed
It, Losada realized that an informa-
ton service between this country
and the Latin Americas in Spanish
was vital. He began using the Press
Wireless service. but it died then
for lack of funds. Undaunted, he
returned from Cuba in 1910 and
resolved to publish Norte. meaning
north" magazine with pictures
and news articles for liberal and
intelligent South Americans. He
sold his car for SIS, borrowed $l25
and went into business.
The magazine business is haz-
ardous business and yet on that
slender capital, and an initial print
order of $500. Losada today has a
circulation Of $4,000! Only lately
has he taken paid advertising. for
he first wanted to build up circu-
lation.
Although he travels to the Latin
American countries, Losada has
decided to settle in New York City.
He Is married to an American girl.
an artist. and soon will receive his
second citizenship papers.
Says he about our relations with
South America: II think the rela-
tons between our countries are
much improved. But Franco and
his followers. the tools Of the Axis,
are deeply intrenched in South
America. They must be combated
as enemies of the democracies."

Printed Dress Is
Real Friend
In Need
BY ELEANOR GUM

NEW YORK-Committee meet
~ ings, luncheons and such 60
ings-on as now fall to our daily
lot make demands on our ward
robes. A woman naturally wants
to look her best on the platform or
anywhere else for that matter. So.
If her wardrobe isn't overly crowded
she should see that it is at least
we'll balanced.
AS every woman knows, printed
dress is a friend in need. 1t is gay.
but not too gay. and is from now
on as right as anything can be in
a topsy = turvy world. The OBJ
jections formerly voiced against
printed dreSses-that they were
hard to wear-has been over-ruled
and overcome since designers have
been expert enough to create de-
signs that camouflage the figure.
Widely spaced prints are unfriend-
ly to generously proportioned wo-
men but there are allovers and
overlapping effects that are good
to the very last spot.
Chartreuse Is a color that should
be taken in moderation. 1t is best
with black. You'll find many OF the
seasons best prints in this en-
tirely pleasing and practical color
scheme.
It's a good idea to have at least
one dark ground print for general
utility purposes and, If you can. a
lighter print for life'S lighter-if-any
moments and for warmer weather
Another little hint about prints: II
you find that they are trying. avoid
their use at or toward the face
There are many prints with plain
Jokes or with lingerie collars. Net
seems to be the natural for neck
wear, tinted net especially.
Sleeves may be long or short but
on investigating the subject, ]
think you'll find the bracelet length
outnumbers either the wrist OF
above the-elbow ones. This length
gives one an excuse. If one is need
ed. for adding something rather
dressy in the way Of gloves-color-
ed ones preferably. They usually
reflect the tone Of the hat.

year-old brother John does q little
teasing on his own. At every chance
he not only urges Bobby to hold the
puppy but even pokes 1t at him to
scare him.
No wonder Bobby Is on the way
to developing q real fear complex
centering about dogs. Unless the
parents do something about It soon.
they may find themselves with such
a serious problem on their hands
that they will be obliged to return
the puppy whence 1t came.
It was mistake to have allowed
Bobby to become afraid Of the
creature In the first place. The
caution which the tot displayed
toward the dog was perfectly
natural. Almost any child who has
had q few or no contacts with
animals will respond similarly. and
1t does not necessarily denote fear.
What the average child feels at
these times Is more likely Q mingl-
ing of curiosity and mistrust. Which
of these will survive and influence
his future attitude toward dogs de-
ponds upon the treatment he
receives.
Wise parents will give q timid
youngster time to become accus-
toned to the presence In the home
Of a new and strange pet. II he

they will respect his wish. They will
ignore his starts. gasps or flutter-
ing eyelids should the lively crea-
ture run to him suddenly. or leap
or bark, and assure cts all right.
He just wants to play. That's the
way he plays"
Do not ridicule the frightened
child and do not let others tease
him. He cannot help being afraid.
