Today's hand is an example.
East and West cashed the first
three diamond tricks. East re-
turned spade, dummy won
with the jack and the king was
cashed. A club was led and East
put on the ten spot, which more
or less indicated that he also
held the queen and jack. Which
opponent probably holds the
king of hearts? Obviously East,
who came into the bidding at
the three zone:
South realized now that he
had squeeze on the hand, and
started running down the spades.
When. he led the last spade, East
could not hold the king and one
heart and the queen-jack Of
clubs. If he let go a club, de-
clarer's king and nine would be
good. If he dropped heart,
South would not have to finesse.
The ace OF hearts would drop the
king and the queen would win
the needed trick.

AREN'T THERE ANY GOOD

Yes, there are "good Ger

err had the slightest influence on
the German government. For
500 years the power to govern
has remained in the hands Of
one class, a class that had no
culture. Culture rested in the
hands that had no power. Hence
the Germans are the only peo-
pie of modern history that have
never made a genuine and sue
cessfui revolution.
In 1882 they voluntarily vot-
ed in the Nazis as the strongest
party. Because they did not pro-
test, the many good German"
who may be among the regi-
mented masses that compose
Germany today are also respon-
sible as a group. We cannot en-
trust them with self govern

THE TRUTH ABOUT
ATROCITIES
nv CEnRGE CREEI
by GEORGE CREEL
for NEA Service


Many atrocities were charged
against the Germans in World
War I. but lack of conclusive
proof barred official acceptance.
I myself as chairman of the
Committee on Public Informal
ton, rejected large number OF
unsupported. Because of this.
pro-Nazis and sentimentaists are
now raising the cry that "horror
stories" from Europe's occupied
countries should be dismissed as
propaganda lies"
The attempted parallel Is ut
terly dishonest. The Germans
were guilty of barbarities in
Belgium and northern France,
but no body was ever seteup to
make a record OF crimes and
criminals. Not until 1919. well
after the armistice. did the AL
lies create a commission to con-
slider charges of inhuman con-
duct, and it was not until 1921
that the accused were brought
to trial. Some 900 cases were
laid before a German court, but
the farcical nature of the pro-
ceedings caused the Allies to
quit in disgust after IL were
tried.
Profiting by this bitter exper-
fence, a United Nations Com
mission for the Investigation of
War Crimes, with headquarters
in London, has been at work
since 1912 In every case sworn
affidavits set forth the rape. tor
ture or massacre in detail, and
name the person or persons held
responsible. It is this commits
sion that charges the Germans
with "abominable crimes.

buy in the Black Market did not
escape entirely because even
they could not rely on regular
supplies of essential foods.
Almost as great a hardship for
the French people of all classes
as the lack of meats, fats, sugar
and vegetables was the disppear-
ance of wine and coffee from the
average table. Normally the
working man drank pint OF
wine with his meals. He could
better have borne much-re-
duced diet had he been able to
fall back on his favorite drink.
Professor Vallery-R d ot is
hopeful of the future, however.
1T is not too late to nurse back
to robust health those children
who started life in such un-
favorable circumstances. Our
doctors struggled heroically dur
ing the last four years to limit
the ravages caused by lack of
certain foods, and there is no
reason why the situation should
not improve. Now that the Ger
mans are no longer robbing us
of practically everything we
produced, there will be more
than enough TO 60 around and in
a short time Frances health
should show definite signs of i'm
provement."

NEA Staff Correspondent

PARIS - The Germans sue
ceeded all to we'll in their sim
lister design to undermine the
French nations general health.
This was fully confirmed in a
report recently submitted to the
Academy of Medicine by two
doctors, Edmond Lesne and
Ribedeau-Dumas, appointed by
the rationing committee and by
one of Frances most eminent
medical men, Prof. Pasteur VAL
lery-Radot.
Four years of restrictions and
a near-starvation diet have UNI
doubtedly left their mark on the
great majority of French people,
according to Professor Vallery-
Radot. The lack of essential
foods, due in large measure to
mass German acquisitions which
absorbed nearly 80 per cent of
Frances foodstuffs, has seriously
endangered public health.
HEAVY TOLL ON YOUTH
Furthermore, the toll on the
youth of the country has been
very heavy, particularly on in
fants. To-day 54 per cent of chill
dren under two suffer from ric-
kets," Prof. Vallery-Radot says.
Infant mortality has risen from
2.46 per cent in 1889 to 4.68 per
cent in l941. The consequences
of an unbalanced as we'll as de-
ficient diet suffered by Partisan
children during the last four
years shows in the marked de-
cline not only in average height
but in average weight. More
over, children are suffering from
all sorts of ailments directly
traceable to malnutrition."
Another grave danger is tu-
berculosis, which has shown a
marked ascendency during the
last four years in adolescents be-
tween the ages of Is and 19 and
in adults between 20 and "a.
During 1941-the hardest of the
four years of German occupation
from nutritional point of view
the rise was something like IS
per cent and there were innum-
cradle cases of incurable acute
tuberculosis. Most men return
ing from forced labor in Ger
many, from prison and copcen-
tration camps, were found upon
examination to be suffering
from the dread disease. On the
ether hand people LIKING in
rural districts had better
chance, of survival because of
easier food conditions.
