A HELP TO oNE.FAMILY FARMING

The spirit of quilting bees and barn
roisings is exempified in the new.-type,
comparatively owned, "boby" thresh-
ing machines. The miniature thresh-
ers are hauled on troiIers behind the
family cor or farm truck. Designed by
IVA engineers, they make it possible
for small farms, or larger ones far
from q main road, to diversity their
crops. The Farm Security Administro-
ton is encouraging cooperative Pur-
chasing.
In community Of Anderson
County, Tennessee, twenty-five neigh
bors have been able to thresh the grains
from small fields because of cooper
otive action. They pooled credit re-
sources and pooled labor to help each
other thresh the products Of their
farms. New inventions, new industrial
uses Of farm products, neiehborhood
cooperation, will strengthen the ram
parts Of the one-fomiIy farm, Jeffer-
sons ideal for American agriculture.

against a suit contract. The deuce
is led next, and the player hopes
for a third-round ruff.
Lead "A is met occasionally,
where there is reason to believe
that partner holds the ace or
queen of the suit, and can give
the leader a third-round ruff.
This lead, in common with all
leads that look toward a remote
ruff is usually made only if the
leader has in trumps some such
holding as AK or XXX.
Such a trump holding assures
that the lead.r can stop the
trump suit once before all his
small trumps are taken out. But
il the trump holding is any long,
er or stronger, the leader should
as a rule try to force declarer to
ruff, rather than try to get ruffs
himself.
The tripleton leads are not I'M
common against no trump, when
the leaders only suit or suits of
four or more cards have been
bid by the declaring side.
Leads AZ and SO ere about the
most undesirable possible. The
doubleton honor, in conjunction
with guarded honor held by
partner, may form a stopper
against the declarer's leads. while
the lead of this honor may clear
up the whole suit for him.

SAFARI TO VICTORY

After this war will anything be
left to occasion surprise, anything to
wonder at? As one reads of men pIung-
ing into the dark heart of Africa, and
coming out on the other side-leov-
ing behind them no mere footprints on
the sands of time but two gigantic
roods-one's first response is to COL
culote what this may mean in military
terms rather than to wonder at the
achievement.
The men are Free Frenchmen. They
have cut these roads through dense
wilderness from the west coast Of
French Equatorial Africa, Free
French possession, deep into the Anglo
Egyptian Sudan, where they meet
routes to the Red SEQ and to Cairo.
What Free Frenchmen can do makes
any lover Of liberty wish that today all
Frenchmen we're free.
Over these roads will flow war sup
plies from the Americas. Equipment
thot the Russians may sorey need if
the Nozis can open q spring offensive
against them, ammunition for the
British in the Near Eost. This land
route is yeor-round route; it is sold
TO be beyond the range Of bombers; it
will cut thousands Of dangerous ocean
miles out Of shipping calculations.
Somewhere beyond the end Of that
route the decisive bottles Of this war
rnoy be fought. The men who mapped
it we're helping to map the future
each mile another mile toward victory.

Americas Card Authority

Previously I have pointed out
the principles governing a blind
lead from a holding OF three
cards. The general principle is
to lead the top II the higher two
cards are in sequence, or IL the
tripleton Is headed ny the ten or
lower.
With the jack or higher at the
top of a trpleton, the lowest
card is led against no trump.
The object here Is TO hold the
honor over a possible low stop
per held by the declarer. But
the jack should be led against a
suit bid. Whether to lead the
queen or king from Q-x-x or X
Xxx against suit bid is mat
ter of inference, but II in doubt,
lead the top.
Here are some more leads:

Hieh|ights from
the Latest Books

Whether the inveterate radio
listener reads books, we don't
know, but here is one book that
every newspaper reader and ra-
dio listener, especially if he is
a shortwave addict, should read.
It Is the story of radio as the
Fourth front" of the total war.
Radio Goes to War" putnam:
S2.75), the most complete ac-
count of the ether waves as a
weapon, is written by Charles
J. Rolo, Egyptian-born, British
educated, student of radio tech
nique. He tells the whole girls
ley story of the way in which
this vast medium of communica-
ton has been and is being used
not merely to mislead but to
confuse and destroy.
How Germany used it not
merely as a conventional propa-
ganda medium, but as an actual
weapon of war; what France, It.
ally, Britain and Russia did with
this weapon; how the little Sec
ret stations maintain in the
night a thin voice of liberty;
what the United States is now
beginning to do - the whole
story is here.
Best of all, the book is non,
technical, but is embroidered
with so many examples of how
the thing works that it Is not
dull or theoretical reading. Any
shortwave addict can remem'
Der hearing some of the pro.
grams cited, and shudder at the
unscupulous means taken tc
play upon his mind as on an or
gan.
Chief responsibility for the
monstrous perversion of what
should be a channel of enlighten'
ment lies with the axis powers
who were first to recognize the
power for manipulation of men!
minds which control OF the ra'
do gave them. The Fred kali
enbachs, E. l.. Delaneys, Doug
las Chambers, and Constance
Drexels who chose to serve Hit
Ter via the air waves rather thar
their own United States, are ex
posed in detail, and the whole
scurvy plot to confuse. disma,
and divide the American PEG
pie is painted in its full ugliness
The book is not without It
hopeful note, however. Radio i

shows how the same technlqu'
