Low card tricks are tricks taken when the high cards have been driven out and, of course, the adverse trump drawn. Here MT. BarSlay cites four hands, none of which qualities an opening, and he gives his reasons: Fails to qualify because of lack of defense strength, although should develop four or five tricks in play.

radio today said that Turkey, reply
ing to Russia demand for redeflni-
ton of the Turkish Russian friend
ship treaty, had sent note stating
that she always has desired to main
tain and strengthen good-neighborly
relations with the Soviet Union.
The broadcast said Turkey de-
clared the treaty of 1925 had "ren-
dered considerable service in the
cause of Turkish-Soviet friendship"
and that Turkey took into consider
alton the desire of the Soviet gov
ernment to denounce this treaty."
The reply said that in accordance
with the Soviet proposal to change
the treaty "to greater conformity in
the interests of both countries. and
which includes important improve
ment," the Turkish government was
ready to study the proposals with
all due attention and good will
