SPEAKING OUT OF TURN

BESIDES BIDDING. passing,
leading and playing out of turn,
there Is also such n thing as
speaking out of turn. especially If
an opponent has committed an ir-
regularity. You are not in the
game to profit deliberately from
such slips by your opponents. But
neither are you in there to see
them profit from such things.
There are times when it is only a

that there was nothing to DO but

If West had thought quickly. he
would have seen that the thing
to do was act according to his
rights and play 4 small card at

read easily enough that East had

his speaking out Of turn could
cause. His play on the Q would

Club to Back New Budget
Nougotuek Group FovorS Increase

Naugatuck, May 6-IsSues which may be presented at tonight's Free mems meeting, progress in the Clubs movement to obtain adequate bus transportation, recreation, and other matters of mutual interest, were brought before members and the public at the meeting of the West Side Community Club yester- day afternoon at the home of George Aspell, 06 North Hoadley Street.
 Active interest in the Freemen's meeting is evident among residents of West Side Hills and the New De- velopment area. The trend, accord ing to President Joseph DeLuca, seems to be in favor of giving to the Board of Education the original amount requested in it's budget, as well as to meet the requests of fire men and policemen for salary in- creaSeS.
 President DeLuca reports that the emphasis appears to be upon the responsibility of citizens toward the entire school department.
 Our attitude" MT. DeLuca em- phasized, "is strictly unlocalized, inasmuch as some of the issues are borough-wide. We feel that the in- provements, and well-satisfied bor- ough employees are an asset to the town as whole, and will repay the possible small increase which may be necessary in the tax rate"

Washington, May o.-(UP)--oon. Alexander A. VandergTift. com mandant of the Marine Corps, accused the War Department today of harboTtng . well advanced and carefully integrntsd'' plot to scuttle his band of fighting Ieathernecks.
 He told the Senate Naval Af- fairs Committee. the proposed mer- ger of the armed services would give the Army the opportunity to carry out its aim. }llN
 .'.Marines have played a signifi- cant and useful part in the mili- tary structure of this nation since It's birth" he said. 'But despite the fact, passage of the unifica- ton legislation as now framed will in all probability spell extinction of the Marine Corps"
 Vandergrift told the committee that . series of facts" hes con- vinced him of one thing-'.tlat the War Department Is determined to reduce the Marine Corps to posi- ton of studied military ineffective ness"
 Vandergrift said that abolition of the Marine Corps would leave Q gap that the Army could not fin. He gave these reasons:
 1. It specializes in anphihi0uS operations important speciality
 which, he said, the Army has pushed into the background,
 2. It trys to develop new tecl1- niQueS whereas the Army often bases its plans on the techniques of past war.

 United Press Staff Correspondent Paris, May 6-(UP)-You think, like I used to think, that an Amer ican CT woes a PariSien made moiselle with cognac and Q dish of truffles? Flaw, He does a better job of it, and quicker, with a double chocolate matted.
 It's the doggonedest thing I ever saw-French cuties being lured into big evenings by American city slick CTS using pineapple marshmallow sundaes with cherries and whipped cream on top as bait.
 Who among the lovelieS of Paris wants bubbly water when she can get genuine double dip strawberry ice cream soda and two straws that signify with slipping noises her need for a refill? The champagne Charles have not got chance.
 Called GI Heaven
 The scene of this gooey debauch- cry is 8 genuine American soda fountain known as the Sugar Bowl and operated by the Army on the Rue du Havre. It Is smack dab against the department store prin- temps, where floor walkers wear Prince Alberts and salesgirls hope against hope to be invited next door.
 The Sugar Bowl, called also CT heaven, is a conscious effort by ex- perts in the psychology of home sickness to drop into the center of Paris Q piece of Wichita, Kan, or perhaps Pittsburgh Pa.
 It's all there-a row of gleaming matted Swizeroos, red tank that gushes cokes, jars of chopped nuts, syrup pumps, and-behind piles of banana split dishes on the back bar "a mural depicting the Statue of Liberty. Miss Liberty looks pretty happy and well fed as if she also had just consumed three-flavor special with oceans and caramel sy- rup.

I've only been without sweets now for two weeks, and I crave sugar like de Quincy craved opium. So the Su- gar Bowl not only promates TO- nance and ceenents international relations in rich chocolate sauce, but it provides calories where ca lories' most are needed. That isn't all

Coal

(Continued from Page D lation to outlaw union royalties on industrial products. Edward R. Burke, president of the Southern Coal Producers Association and a member of the mine operators ne- gotiating committee, was invited to testify at today'S session.
 A major obstacle to settlement of the strike has been John L. Lewis demand for a tonnage royalty on coal to finance a welfare fund con- trolled by the United Mine Work CTS (AFL.) Reps. Howard Smith and A. Willis Robertson, both Vir- ginia Democrats, introduced bills to forbid granting the demand.
 Prelude to New Efforts
 Meanwhile, there was tendency in both management and union circles to view Saturday nights White House statement-terming the mine shutdown a national dis aster"-as a prelude to more direct Government intervention in settle ment efforts.
 One source said the strike had reached the stage where anything can happen" and he meant for better or worse. Some Government officials thought the outlook had improved despite the apparent lack of progress in negotiations at the Labor Department last week.
 There was little likelihood of major developments until after to- morrow's meeting of the 200-mem- Der UNIV. policy committee. Lewis called the committee to report on negotiations, but observers recalled that such action in the past often signaled important decisions by the union.
 Curbing Trend Increases
 Prospects for legislation curbing strikes in public utilities and basic industries apparently were increas- ing. Congressmen, increasingly dis turbed over the strike, may dis lodge pending bill from the Sen- ate calendar within the next three weeks.
 Administration leaders in the Sen- ate are understood to have told sponsors of restrictive amendments to the bill that it will be brought up before the Summer recess. In any case, it has been put on an informal must list" by Republican leaders and any attempt to duck the issue would precipitate a partisan fight which the Administration is eager to avoid.
 As approved by the Senate Labor Committee, the bill would set up a five-man mediation board in the Labor Department to take over the functions of the U. s. Cancellation Service. It would also ban inter- ference by threats or violence with the transportation of perishable goods to market.
