SEEK p A C-COMMIE LINK

The important thing about

gators, Robert f.. Stripping and
DR.. j. b. Matthews, 10 show a
link between the Roosevelt adj

one hand, then show link be-
tween p. a. c. and the American
Communists on the other.
The inference is supposed to
be that the Communists are taxi

and if Stripping and Matthews
can prove that, they Will have
something. But the evidence on
this daisy chain is pretty thin.

LETHARGY

Henry GoreI Of the United Press, now with our
forces in Germany describes his surprise at coming
through the first days in enemy home territory with
out being killed wounded by guerrIIos. His feel
ing is natural, but his good fortune is scarcely sur
prisine.
The German civilian who compocenty surrend-
cred his liberty to the Noz Porty isn't likely to rise
UP oneriy in the Nozis' defense. He, the mddIe-oeed
German beyond mitoV oge, happily allowed him
self to be hypnotized by Hters orotory though
loter the Gestopo had to be dispatched to keep him
in his trance.
Now, os one burgher told Mr.. GorreII, the Ges-
topo is gone and the Germans aren't ofroid They're
glad the war is almost over They want peace and
quiet.
Stores silence and Iethorgy have greeted most
Annericon troops in Germany thus for. Lethorey will
probably remain otter the fighting is 1t is the
lethorgy of people who love to be Ied and who
accepted Hitler the alternative to the bothersome
chore Of governing themselves It is O lethorey thot

ter No. 38, an honor he won last
December. Here is one of the
interesting hands that helped
him win the Masters pair champ
ionship. He could count only
eleven tricks when the opening
lead was made and the dummy
went down. However, he had
one clue to the distribution Of
the high cards, and acting on
that, he planned his play. In
stead of ruffing the first dia-
mOnd lead, Leventritt discarded
low club from his hand. There
after, when a diamond was con-
tinuCd, he ruffcd, drew trumps,
cashed the ace and king OF
hearts, ruffcd out two more
diamonds from dummy, then
continued with trumps to the
end. DummY's ten of diamonds
compelled South to hold one dia-
mond, and one the lead of the
last trump, he had to give up the
guard TO the club king. When
South discarded his third club,
Lcvcntritt threw away dummy's
diamond and cashcd the ace and
queen Of clubs for his two need
ed tricks.
