 But he traps his side. Unless North has no kings at all and re- spends six clubs, he is bound to bid suit that will force South to re- turn to clubs at the level of seven. There is no margin for the bid of five no trump. That is the same thing as bidding seven clubs at once, and South does not have the values for the grand slam. and take all 13 tricks.

New Haven, Sept. 18-"It is our duty to do all we can to see that in the approaching state and con- gressional elections, Connecticut sends to office not critics but staunch supporters of the president, states the call to the 1942 convention of Labors Partisan League of Connecticut, released by State Rep resentative Nicholas Tomassetti of New Britain, staSe chairman of the league.
 The convention call announces that an emergency war time con- vention of Labor's Non-Partisan League of Connecticut" take place at the Bushnell Memorial hall, Hart ford, on Sunday, October II, starting at p. m.
 Commenting on the Call Tomas setti said, Our organization is de- termined to do all it can to help elect to public office only those who are thoroughly committed to sup port President Roosevelt's policies, both domestic and foreign. For this reason we are profoundly critical of such attacks on the Presidents ad- ministration and on his Labor Day Message as were contained in speeches at the recent Republican Convention by Senator Danaher and the 4th Congressional District nom- 1nee, Mrs. Clare Boothe Luce."
 Tremendous Stakes
 "The 1942 Congressional and State elections are coming rapidly closer, !" the Convention Call, sent to unions, civic and fraternal groups through out Connecticut, states. "The tre- mendous stakes are made clearer every day . In this hour of cri- sis, we know that our nation must be fully mobilized for war behind the commander-in chief. We need men in office who will fight Hitler not labor"
 League Chairman Tomassetti, veteran of two terms in the Con- necticut General Assembly, recently led the New Britain ticket in win ming his re-nomination as a Demo- crat. According to the League office in New Haven, various candidates such as Representative Tomassetti, William Scott. president of the Hartford Federation of Labor who seeks state senatorship as a Demo- crat in Hartford, Harold Conroy, treasurer of Local 27O, Colt CIO h. duStrial Union, who has been nom- mated in Hartford for the General Assembly also as a Democrat. and other labor candidates will be among those featured on the speak ing program.
 Program Outlined
 A recent political action confer ence of the state CIO Council chart ed a legislative program. Labor's Non-Partisan league will back the program as outlined.
 According to the Call, the aims of the convention will be:
 First; to endorse win- n-the-war candidates, who will give full sup port to President Roosevelt and the program of labor.
 Second; to mobilize all possible support for labor's legislative pro-
