Long Island. DR.. Mitchell hand

championship style.
East won the opening lead
with the ace of spades and led
the SIX, which DR.. Mitchell
(South) won with the queen. He
led the jack of diamonds and
overlook in dummy with the
queen, returning the eight of
hearts. When East played the
nine, DR.. Mitchell covered with
the ten, which held. Now he laid
down the ace of hearts, thus set
ting up the king for East. The
king of diamonds was cashed
and a small club led to dummy's
jack. West won with the queen,
and now DR.. Mitchell was able
to get rid of his losing clubs
on the two good spades and the
good diamond. If East ruffed.
one of the clubs could be ruffed
to regain entry TO dummy.
The way Mr.. Mitchell hand
led this makes the play look
rather simple, but some players
went down as many as three
thicks on the hand.

and her mother, who was of pi-
oneer stock, turned on her.
See here" said the mother,
Il have given you life; that is
about all will ever be able to
give you-life. Now you stop
complaining and do something
with it"
Religious faith Is similarly
challenging. Life is sacred
trust, it says. Whatever else
has been confided to US, our
most intimate and unacceptable
entrustment lies in our capacity
to be real persons. To fail at
that is to fail altogether; to sue
coed at that is to succeed su-
premely, whatever it cost.
Says Noah in the play Green
Pastures, II ain very much, but
Is all | got" That is the place
TO start. Such self-acceptance is
realistic, humble, self-respect-
full. Irreligion says that a man
must accept himself as basical-
~ a physical fortuity, his spir-
itual life a strange sport of ma
ture in a universe where moth
ing kindred corresponds with it
and no destiny lies ahead Of it..
Religion presents a positive,
challenging and stimulating
faith. no cushion TO lie down on
but a basis for hopeful adven-
ture and a source of available
power in undertaking the most
significant responsibility in the
known universe-being a real
person.

Religion has never promised
emlnence. genius, freedom
from hardship, satisfied amol-
ton. Of worldly success, but 1t
has said TO every individual:
Whatever you may fail at, YOU
need not fail at being real per-
son; the maklngs of great per-
sonal life include handlcaps, de-
ficiencies. troubles, and even
moral failures; they too are raw
materials out of which strong
personalities are made, the uni
verse itself is not a haphazard
affair of aimless atoms but IS
organized around spiritual pur-
poses; and personality, far from
being a chance inadvertence, is
the fullest and completest way
Of being alive and the most ade-
quate symbol we have of the ma
ture of God; the world itself is
vale of SUMMARIZING" and ne
who undertakes that task IS on
the main highroad Of creations
meaning and is accepting the
central trust of life.
Moreover, says religion, as
there are pcrSonallty-creatlng
forces in the univerSe-elSe we
would not be here-So there are
forces that can recreate and en-
power us, enabling us to endure
what we have TO stand and be-
come what we ought to be.
This message of religion has
been phrased IN many forms by
differing tcmperamentS, and has
been Varlously embodied in the
crecds and customs of the
churches. Underglrding faith in
a God who cares; the conscious
ness Of available power from
beyond ourselves; the practise
OF prayer as a means of COM
munion with the Eternal Spirit;
belief i'm a criterion OF ludg-
mcnt higher than mans, which
looks not on the outward APP
pcarance but on the heart; con-
fidCncc in the reality of forgive
ness, not only human but di-
Vinc faith i'm tho eternal slgnlfl-
canoe of life as headed toward a
purpoScful goal ultimately
worth all that it may cost, in
achieving which every person
may count; belief in personal
ity'S survival of death so that to
be a real person is Of more than
temporal Conccrn--Such factors
in religious faith focus their
strong influence on the individ-
ual a he decides whether to &C
ccpt himself as done for or to
accept himself as potentially
worthwhile person.

PUBLIC SERVICE

One Of this country's thousands Of small town

TEN STRIKES DAILY
Preliminary estimates pu I
the number of strikes in 1913 at
$500 or better, the number of
man days lost through strikes
at over 1875 million. That aver
ages 800 strikes a month, 10 a
day, each losing $3.50 man-days
labor.
II is considered impossible TO
make any division TO show the
number of strikes affecting war
industries. For 1912, the war
Labor Board made an estimate
that 1853, or approximately As
per cent Of the 1868 strikes in
that year, were in munitions in
duStries. Using that same per-
centage, it.Would mean approx
mately 1000 strikes against the
war effort in 1943.
No one will condone a single
strike, but from labor advisers
10 the War Production Board,
confirmed by War and Navy
Departments, come frank adj
missions that there has been
no s!zeable failure 10 meet any
production schedule because of
strikes"
To consider strikes as inescap-
able, natural phenomena is,
however, too easy. One of the
facile fallacies is 10 say that
strikes normally increase as in
dustrial production goes up.
Take look at that for few
selected years.
In 1880, there were 33 mil
lion man-days lost through
strikes, with the Federal Re-
serve Board index of industrial
production at 81.
In 1887, there were PA mil
lion man-days lost by strikes,
with the index at lib.
In 1912, there was drop TO
four million man-days lost,
while the index rose TO 1879
For 1913 the estimated loss
Will be 1875 million man days,
with the index probably averag-
ing 235.
COMPLEX FIGURES
The figures don't prove a
thing they are supposed &c
prove. The large number OF
man days lost in 1941 and 1913
can be accounted for by the coal
strikes of those years.
The strike recrd Of 1897 car
be attributed TO just one thing
That was the year the National
Labor Relations Act was de.
clared constitutional by the SUI
preme Court. 1t resulted in 474C
organizational strikes. The Law
that was 10 improve labor rela'
tons resulted in more strikes
and more man-days of idleness
than the country has ever hac
