Pass PaSS
Opening lead. three of spades.
Against the contract of three no
trump West elected to lead the three
of spades, though many modern
players, on apparently hopeless
hands of this type, tend to favor
short suit lead, in the vague nope
of finding partners strength.
The four of spades was played
from dummy and East, guided by
the maxim third hand high" won
with the ace. He returned the queen.
which was permitted to hold. and
the third round of spades was taken
by declarer. The club finesSe was
now tried and lost to East, who was
unable to return a spade. and de-
clarer romped off with the rest OF
the tricks.
The hand was not given further
thought. Every one assumed that
the normal result has been attained.
Actually, East had been afflicted
with lack of vision in blindly follow
ing the adage. third hand high
East's proper play at trick one was
the queen of spades, on the follow
ing reason: If partner holds the
king it is immaterial whether East
plays the ace or the queen, but the
opening no-trump bid by South
marks him almost to a. certainty
with that card. The important point
Is that South cannot have the sin
gleton king. This Is apparent both
from the no-trump bid and from the
fact that partner led the three his
fourth best) which means that west
has at most five cards in the suit.
That is to say, West has three cards
higher than the three, and can have
only one card that is lower, namely
the deuce, allowing him maximum
of five cards in that suit and there
fore declarer a minimum Of three.
East should realize that If he
plays the ace declarer will refuse
to win with the king until the third
round, and surely simple survey
of the high cards in sight should
make it clear that West cannot
have an entry card.
If, however, East had played the
queen South, not knowing the loca-
ton of the ace of spades, would
have been compelled to win the
trick and when East obtained the
lead with the king Of clubs, the ace
and another spade would defeat the
contract.
While it is true that South could
still have made the hand by refus-
ing the queen of spades, I think II
will be agreed that this Is a play
which he would hardly have been
in a position to make unless East
had made a gratuitous display OF ell
his possessions. The type of strategy
suggested for East Is a defense
against the holdup and should be
employed when one is persuaded
that partner cannot have any entry
cards.

wage plans used with varying de-
grees of success in companies in
Cincinnati, Chicago, Worcester,
Mass, Milwaukee, Newark, Calf,
Decatur, ILL.,, and Troy, N. Y.
AS t. the possibilities of the
guaranteed annual wage, Prof.
Snider concluded:
"The managers of American
business III general will find that
they could easily provide a con-
siderable degree of employment
security. To be sure, most COM
panies will discover that a wage
guarantee of So full-time weeks a
year to all employees is not pos
sible for them. But most com
panies will also discover that it
would be financially sound for
them to offer a guarantee of a
considerable number of hours dur
ing the year to a considerable pro-
portion Of their employees"
Enthusiasm Held Needed
Any guaranteed wage plan to be
successful must not guarantee
more than the company can give,
Snider warned, but on the other
hand it must not guarantee less
than is judged worth while by the
recipients of the plan. An exceed
ingly low guarantee, he pointed
out, may unsettle rather than re-
assure the workers.
Additional requirements needed
in inaugurating a plan successful
ly, Snider suggested, are adequate
escape clauses which would modify
the guarantee if conditions of un-
bearable financial strain develop,
an enthusiasm for the plan on the
part of the employer and employee,
and mutual willingness on both
sides to compromise for the COM
mon good.
Benefits Seen Widespread
"The presence Of a guarantee
plan has stimulated the manage
ment to develop more efficient op-
Grating practices; in particular, to
achieve greater stability of opera
tions," Snider reports, "and this in
turn has brought additional bene-
fits not only to the company and
the workers, but also to suppliers,
customers and the community"

Carroll President 7

Detroit. - Thomas C. Carroll,
whose father and grandfather
served as section foremen on the
Southern Railroad, and who fol-
lowed in their footsteps, was
elected international president of
the Brotherhood of Maintenance of
Way Employees at meeting here
in which all grand lodge officers
and general chairmen of the
Brotherhood from the United
States, Canada and Newfoundland
participated.
He succeeds Elmer f. Milliman,
who died suddenly on December 81
while being operated upon for a
kidney ailment. His term will run
to the next convention in June,
1949.
A dramatic sidelight is that Car
roll was born in a section house
at Donalds, S. c., where his father
was a section foreman on the
Southern. After graduating from
high school, he worked in several
crafts on the railroads before
shifting to the maintenance of way

paying teachers decent wages so
that they will not be compelled to
strike.
"A primary responsibility of
boards of education is to work out
such a program of school financing
that teachers may be paid salaries
commensurate with their costly
university training, their highly
skilled work and their value to
their community.
Failure of boards of education
to provide adequate salaries for
teachers is a fundamental failure
of public agency, and any board
which forces teachers to take such
drastic action as to strike is seri-
ously negligent of a public trust.
Frankly, we wonder what is
the future of a nation which
spends eight times as much on
three luxuries-liquor, tobacco and
horse-racing-as it spends on edu-
cation, and then constantly refuses
to pay adequate salaries for the
education of it's children. Buffalo
is one of the richest cities in one
of the richest states in the nation,
and yet we find public school teach
ers compelled to strike for an ade-
quate living wage.

justly deserved.
"The State Legislature has a
large part of the responsibility for
the strikes because of existing
laws which do not provide ade-
quate state aid and at the same
time do not permit local communi-
ties to raise sufficient funds to
pay adequate salaries to teachers
and to provide adequate educa-
tional facilities. Thus, teachers are
caught between Scylla, on one
hand, and Charybdis on the other
'In a large sense, the teachers

BILE for the sad plight of the ma
tion's schools. The teachers, over
the years, have not been organized
in sufficient strength to demand
adequate salaries and to protect
the schools. The school children
have paid heavy price for the
lack Of organization on the part of
their teachers.
"At the beginning of World
War III, the American Federation
of Labor issued an overall educa-
tional program for which affiliat-
ed unions were urged to press dur
ing the war period. This program
anticipated the crisis which now
faces American education and
which advocated better salaries,
tenure of office and retirement pro-
visions. Had the teachers of the
nation been adequately organized
to carry out this program the pres
ent crisis would not have develop

never have been compelled to re-

Wholesale Food Costs At Postwar
Peak Due To Weather, Other Focfors

Washington, D. C.-Unions ne
gotiating wage increases this
month have found some support
for their requests in the official
report Of the Labor Departments
report that wholesale food prices
have jumped two per cent from
January to February.
Although retail food prices do
not climb quite as rapidly as
wholesale costs, some Of the eco
nomic developments which caused
this increase in foods at whole
sale, AFL experts analyzing the
report said, will also affect the
price workers must pay.
First, the widespread freeze in
southern states has destroyed food
crops; workers throughout the
northeast depend on these crops
for an important part Of their
fresh fruits and vegetables. Prices
Of fruits and vegetables coming
from the south will be higher.
Secondly, famine abroad has
made it essential to increase wheat
shipments from this country, and
this has raised the price Of wheat.
These two developments probably
brought somewhat higher food
costs for workers in February.

of Labor Statistics, in the report
declaring wholesale prices hit
new postwar peak in the week
ended February Is, reaching 143.1
per cent of the 1926 price average,

"FoIse Foce" Bill
Would Hit Laws
Projecting Labor

Washington. - Enemies of or
ganized labor continue their battle
to cripple unions with hostile legis-
lation.
They won one skirmish this
week when the House Judiciary
Committee always anti-labor -
reported out bill introduced by
Congressman John w. Gwynne
(Rep., Iowa..
This measure would narrowly
restrict workers right to sue en-
ployers for portal-to-portal" pay.
1t would practically nullify the re-
cent Supreme Court decision up
holding that right, under certain
conditions.
The portal pay ban, however, is
merely false face, behind which
hide far more dangerous provi-
sions of the Gwynne bill. These
would nullify the Wage Hour Act,
Walsh-Healey Act and Bacon
Davis Act, three laws now provid-
ing vital protection for workers.
Extracts Laws Teeth
If the bill passes, any employer
could avoid punishment under
these laws by claiming he acted
''in good faith" when he chiseled
on wages, hours or forced en-
ployees to "kick back" part of
their pay.
The laws "teeth" would be
further drawn by banning law
suits against employers, unless
workers begin the suits within one
year.
At present, a convicted en-
ployer has to pay twice the
amount of money he chiseled.
Under the Gwynne bill, a worker
could recover no more than the
amount out of which he was
cheated.
Cheaters Can't Lose
In short, employers would have
nothing to lose and everything to
gain by violating these labor-pro-
tective laws.

construction establishments are

grams, conducted by local joint
labor-contractor committees. Since
1915 there has been a 80 per cent
increase in the number of these
committees in the building trades.
In manufacturing and other in
dustries there has been an in
crease of 25,055 companies partici-
pating in programs, almost three
times the number at the end of
1945. A large percentage of these
companies are participating in
