MONTANA IN WASHINGTON

The Civil Service commission
has just disclosed that Montana
was considerably in excess OF
its quota of appointments to
federal positions on Feb. IA. The
Civil Service report shows that
this state was entitled to 36b
positions and 485 positions were
filled, 119 in excess. However,
81 other states and the District
of Columbia were also over their
quotas, the report indicated.
Civil Service oftic.a ais said the
fact that Montana was over its
quota would be no bar to en-
ployment in instances where
there was a scarcity of quail
fled applicants. In instances
where states which are under
their quota can supply qualified
persons for announced positions.
they will be given preference,
the officials explained. Civil
Service requirements and rat
ings have been rlaXed consider
ably for the duration of the
war in an effort to find quail
fled workers in a number of
skilled fields.

REVERSING THE DUMMY

ONE OF THE greatest advan-
ltages in having a trump suit with
four cards in your own hand OPP
posite four in the dummy is that
you can reverse the usual pro-
cedure IL you wish and treat the
dummy's holding as the main
trump setup while using the
trumps in your own hand for ruff
fng. The question Of whether to
do this or not depends upon vari-
Gus factors. especially that Of
which is the stronger holding.
Ordinarily 1t is best to use that as
the main suit and do your rufing
with the weaker one. As q rule. II
you do 1t the other way, and run
with the higher trumps, you may
set up one or more trump tricks
for the defenders.
