ONE WAY TO FoOL HIM

THERE ARE almost countless
ways for a defender 10 mislead a
declarer. and make him play in
manner which will not succeed.
One Of the most effective OF these
is to take a trick with a higher
card when you could take II with
a lower one. and thus cause him
to place the missing lower, honor
in your partners hand. In some
spots such a play works like a
charm.

Germ. We established an enforce
ment office in Wilmington several
months ago chiefly to afford more
direct service TO the community,
where we realize the pressure is
very great. I think it goes without
saying that we have made more
enforcement effort in Whining
ton than in any other town in this
district.
"A number of suspension orders
have been issued against service
stations there. We have secured
at least two convictions on Grim
inal charges, and have six more
cases pending trial. At least three
personal injunctions have been is
sued, and five preliminary sane

cite these because of the large
number but in order to demon
strate that we are seeking to en-
force our regulations.
Elm addition to this I am con-

1.-THE Junior Chamber Of Com
merce and the Senior Chamber
of Commerce may render a fine
public service if they put their
shoulders to the wheel on the
Home Front Pledge Campaign
which is about to be carried out
in the Wilmington area.
IF you could arrange a meet
ing OF the Junior Chamber of
Commerce or the Senior Chamber
OF commerce, or both, I will con-
slider it a real privilege to come
there to discuss the situation with
them"
The letter was addressed to
John A. Sheehan, president of the
Junior Chamber.
Early in the week, Governor
Broughton advised the organiza-
ton that he personally was unable
to remedy the situation, and was
referring the matter to OPA for
attention.
The Home Front Pledge cam
paign mentioned in Mr.. Johnson
correspondence is a project of
the Community Service panel of
the local Rationing board, and
details concerning it have been
released by Mrs. Julian Morton,
chairman of the panel.
Through the forthcoming cam
paign, it is hoped to acquaint
housewives with accurate facts on
prices, and to exact from them a
pledge that they will not patron
ize establishments where viola
tons prevail. Better relations be-
tween consumer and retailer is
an objective.
In meeting preceding the fill
ing of the telegram to Governor
Broughton and Mr.. Johnson, the
Jaycees expressed alarm at the
rapid rise in prices for services
and commodities in Wilmington,
and deplored the consistent ig-
noring of regulations among GER
tain concerns.

"Reinforcements continue to ar
rive" the communique said. ma
val and air support is playing a
great part in assisting the consol-
idation. Unloading on the beaches
in the Salerno area continues sat-
isfactorily. Destroyers working in
shore are bombarding enemy posi-
tons and troop concentrations.
Yesterday, September Is, targets
in the Salerno area also we're bonn
barded by battleships.
The communique said % more
small units of the Italian navy
arrived at Palermo, Sicily, in sur
render on September Is and IA.
Previously, n warships were re-
ported at Malta and another eight
reached Cyprus, running the AL
Lied naval prizes to at least 113
units.
The fury Of the battle of Salerno
was unequalled since the fall of
France. German reinforcements
were being rushed to the front
from Marshal Erwin Rommel's
their progress was impeded by
command in northern Italy, but
steady poundings of roads and rail
lines.
To the cacophony of clanking
steel tanks, chattering machine
guns and small arms fire was add
ed the whine of naval salvos ex-
ploding in Nazi nests in the hills.
Planes droned constantly over
head above the dust and smoke
laden surface air. /
For the second day running,
planes of all categories from Fly
ing Fortresses to fighters f lie W
more than 1000 sorties, dropping
the greatest cargo of destruction
yet laid in single day in the

stroyed at least five enemy planes.
