quantities of copper wire to imme. dlntely comply with requests for new or extended electric service. Naturally. these additional reduc. tons ln production will reflect seri- ously ln The Connecticut Light and Power Company's ability to realize It's plans for extending electric service into rural areas, new homes or stores. he continued.
 Early Relief TDoubtful
 Mir. Jebb said he anticipates no carly relief in the situation, which has been growing steadily worse since last fall when strikes in wire rod mills and other operations of the copper industry first affected the supplies of copper wire.
 The CPA announcement stated that production of electric wire for housing, fractional horse power motors and many kinds of consumer goods will be cut down in alomts die rect proportion to the amount Of copper produced unless the output of the wire mill industry is quick. ly back to 1t speak. Among consumer goods which will be affected by the diminishing supply of copper wire are washing machines, vacuum cleaners. radios, electric fans and irons.
 Mr. Jebb stated that m addition to the serious shortage of ade. quate amounts Of copper wire, the company is also severely handicap ped by shortages of transformers, insulators. meters and poles. brought about by strikes directly in the industries producing tho company's electric equipment and strikes or manpower shortages in other industries.

Americas Card Authority

I have assigned a place on my
All-America card team this year
to Thomas F.. Mccarthy and
through him to members of The
Whist Club of New York, Of which
he is president
Throughout the war, The Whist
Club conducted an annual rubber
bridge tournament to raise funds
to help the American Contract
Bridge League continue its fight
against cancer in children. Last
year one of the winners of this
tournament was Charles H. Goren
of Philadelphia, winner Of the Nc
Kenney trophy for accommodating
the highest number of Master
Points during the year.
Goren selected today'S hand from
The Whist Club tournament as one
Of the most interesting hands of the
year. 1t is seldom necessary to make
a sacrifice bid with a hand as big
as East's. Goren knew that If he
were on lead and could lead club
he might defeat the hand; but with
his partner on lead, he felt he had
to go to six spades. OF course he
was right, as six diamonds could
be made easily.
