| looked at the tables about her. She sighed, T must say, though, 1t worries me to think of loafers and lower -bracketeers like these actu- ally having a vote and deciding major issues. keep trying to think of some way Of combining absolute democracy -- in which, of course, my father and beleive implicitly with keeping the decision in really important affairs in the hands of ] experts -- like ourselves. think I'll make that my next editorial in Att tentionp
 pRE1TY much everything was decided about the new organi- zation except its name, and for what purpose 1t existed, if any.
 Winifred Homeward proposed that there should be a Federal po- lice force - with her husband as chief. Governor Blizzard proposed that job be found for his cousin, Al Jones, a fine young fellow. But as the godlike eye of Colonel Mar duo perceived, eventually 1t was Dr. Planish who settled on the purposes and title for their new organization.
 The title was "Dynamos of Democratic Direction,' though 1t was always known as the DDD. Winifred was to be the first presi- dent; Sherry Belden, treasurer; and the directive secretary was Gideon Planish, M. A., Ph.D.
 The DDD was to have chap ter, called "powerhouse," in every community in America. Each of these was, under instruction from New York about the latest Conditions and Situations, to or- ganize Discussion Group, Health Committee, a Gardening Unit, a History Class. an English Class for the Foreign-born, an investigation Group to report on local Fascist, and committee to wangle free radio time. There was, of course, to be a national magazine, but 1t never did get started The whole scheme, in fact - to supplant the Federal and State and Town Governments and the entire Christian church by a new Soviet headed by Colonel Marduc-was beyond criticism. Dr. Planish summed 1t up in private memo to the Colonel: All ordinary citizens, especially those west of Buffalo, need instruction and direc- tion in becoming thoroughly demo- cratic from trained thinkers like ourselves. When we have given our democracy to the entire nation. then America will enforce 1t on the rest of the world. That is our basic idea"
 The basic ideas behind this basic idea were that Dr. Planish was to have a secure $100-a- week job, which would some day become $200-a-week job, and Tom Bliz- bard and old Charley Marduc were to enjoy being known as great statesmen, and Charley's horsy- looking girl, Winifred, was to have an audience whenever she got hungry for one, and Peony and the United States of America were to enjoy one intending Christmas morning.
 In the haven of the Dynamos of Democratic Direction, Dr. Plan- ish passed three serene years, from late in 1898 until December, 194l, while the rest of the world was not so serene.

 This is the fifth of series of six articles based on the Fishbein convention developed by Harry J. Fishbein and Corp. Alvin Roth.
 Fishbein explains that a double made over the pre-emptive bidder is always business Most pre-emp- tive bids of three are made opposite a passing partner. When North opens with three diamonds on to- days hands, East must double and even though West holds a singleton diamond, he knows that the double is business and he should pass.
