CULBERTS0N WILL
SPEAK HERE SOON

Ely Culbertson, who will speak
in ITALIAN hall Tuesday evening,
February 20, at $3.50 o'clock is not
lecturing on how to win at bridge,
but, his subject is How to Win, and
Keep, World Peace"
This transition from bridge-table
to peace-table strategy is not as
strange as it seems, it was said.
Mr.. Culbertson has not given up
his interest in bridge, which al
ways has been his cherished mop
by, but as editor and publisher
of Bridge World" and advisor to
American bridge players through
his newspaper column, he sees the
necessity for world peace If a civili-
zation that permits the polite play
of cards and ideas is to endure, it
was pointed out.
The real problem, as Culbertson
sees it, is to find formula for
world peace which will be agreed
upon by the peoples Of the world
and their leaders in the sphere OF
power politics. AS an expert on
systems of card playing which
have won world wide acceptance,
he also considers himself COM
petent social strategist, and atten-
ton already given his ingenious
plan for world police force oper-
ating on a mathematically tested
''quota' system confirms this
claim, it was said. Educators, edi-
tors, authorities on world planning
here and abroad-Dorothy Thomp-
son, Stuart Chase, Edouard c.
Lindeman, Bertrand Russell, Lin
Yutang and others too numerous
to mention-have studied the Cul-
bertson plan with deep interest and
with partial or complete approval,
it was pointed out.
Culbertson represents no organ
lied group except his own World
Peace Federation, identiide as a
non profit membership corpora
ton w i h headquarters in N e W
York. His plan is outlined in publ
cations issued by the Foundation
and explained in full detail in his
book, Total Peace"
Chairman of the ticket committe
is Mrs. P. R. Smith.

There is little doubt that civilian
meat supplies will be reduced

made for civilians and for war
agencies. Insofar as production
fails to meet ALLEGATIONS, civilian
supplies suffer.
