Opening lead. ten Of clubs.
In the eyes Of this observer Sidney
Silodor of Philadelphia ranks with
the great tournament players Of all
time. My observation has been at
close range, for during the past
decade 1t has been my good fortune
to have Mr.. Silodor as a partner in
numerous national and world cham.
pionships. His name is inscribed on
every major trophy but one, The
one that has so far eluded him Is
the trophy emblematic OF the
Masters Individual championship.
but failure thus far to annex this
title cannot be attributed to his
lack of trying. In support of this
contention cite today's hand which
I played with him in the recent
Masters Individual in New York
City.

quently develop into out and out

suit would be frowned upon In rub

which took in the form of q one
no-trump bid. West and North
passed and East decided not to re-
tire from the battle, contesting with
bid Of two hearts. II 1t Is your
purpose to take issue with this call
please do not address me. I am
merely the reporter in the case and
you may have East's mailing ad-
dress upon application. This was
passed around to Silodor In the
North position and his action at
this point would be unthinkable In
rubber bridge or in contest with
total point scoring.
He calculated that the opposition
had deprived us of the privilege Of
playing for the part score. at which
we could very likely have scored
more than 100 points "a bonus of
so points is awarded In tournament
play for the fulf1llment of a part
score contract) and the only way In
which we could be adequately COM
pensated was to defeat the enemy at
doubled contract which would
yield 200 points.
My opening club bid followed by 8
voluntary bid of one no-trump In
the face of partners pass, had
portrayed strong hand and he
hoped I could garner four tricks.
He was reasonably sure he would
cash the queen of hearts and was
willing to gamble that the king of
diamonds would be q winner. If
my no-trump bid had about it the
least bit of poetic license I need not
stand for the double. However, my
hand was suitable for the purpose
and as you will observe there was
no way deelarer could avoid the
loss of six tricks. The 200 points
yielded us a top score.
1 don't recommend this type of
double for home use. I merely
wanted you to see that silodor
really was trying.

lenbach became close friends while
they served together in the Senate,
where they were both known as
members Of the young, vigorous
liberal group Of Turks" who were
most active on the floor and in
committee in pressing for New
Deal laws.
In the time between his Senate
term and his recall to Washington
for the cabinet post, Schwellenbach
served as a US District Judge for
the eastern district of Washington
State He often told friends in the
Capital that he looked on these as
the happiest days of his public
career, and several of the prece-
dent-making decisions from Schwel-
lenbach's bench are viewed as inn
portant steps in protecting the cit
tie men" of the northwest from
the power and lumber interests.
SchwelIenbach served in World
War | as an infantry private, and
in 1922 served as state comman-
der of the American Legion.

spokesmen had luncheon meeting,
Pucci said, where they first started
to hammer out their present amic-
able-though not always agreeing
policies.
President James McDevitt of the
Pennsylvania Federation of Labor
warned the conferees that the evil
pattern of controlling labor by the
use of injunctions was again on the
increase in the US, and said the
Pennsylvania pattern where at
present there are dozens Of injunc-
tions hanging over unions-is typi-
cal. These injunctions fail to obtain
labor-management peace because
they try to substitute force for rea-
son, McDevitt maintained.
On the lighter side of the insti-
tute, the program featured a fac
ulty-labor baseball game, swimming
in the Rutgers pool, and songs by
chorus organized by the Int'l La
dies Garment Workers Union. Con-
ferees also saw the first showing
of a film, strip on how unemploy-
ment compensation works, produced
and distributed by the Institute at
Rutgers as part of its services to
the labor movement in the state.

Rail Unions Win
Congress Benefits

Washington (LPA) - Railroad
workers won the only major in
crease in social security benefits
voted by this Congress.
Both the Senate and House un-
animously enacted an amendment
to the Railroad Retirement Act
boosting pensions to retired rail
roa workers by 20 per cent effec-
tive August /. The same increase
applies to benefits payable to wild
ows Of railroaders with children
under Is.
Maximum pensions and annuities
under the new legislation go up
from $l20 to 144 a month.
The unanimous enactment was
made possible as a result of an
agreement reached between the
Railroad Brotherhoods and rail
went along with the 20 per cent
managements. The managements
boost in benefits, and the unions
'okeyed" a sliding scale reduction
in unemployment insurance taxes
paid by the rail carriers.

Unions Mourn Loss
OF SchWelIenbach,
Labor Dept. Head

Washington LPA)-The death
of Labor Secretary Lewis b
Schwellenbach, almost the last of
the New Dealers in President Tru-
mans cabinet, was called a "great
loss" to organized labor in state
ments from top union officials last
week.
Speculation as to Schwellenbach's
successor was at a minimum, since
the appointment would only run for
seven months until a new presi-
dent takes office and recognizes
the cabinet. David Morse, who has
served as acting head of the La
Dor Dept most of the time since
Schwellenbach became i'll early
this year, is expected to continue
at least until President Truman's
return from his national tour. How
ever, Morse is scheduled to spend
nearly all of the next month at
the ILO conference in San Fran
cisco.
"The nation has suffered a Sc
we're loss" asserted CIO President
Philip Murray. "In the Senate of
the US, on the federal bench and
his position as Secretary of Labor
he rendered brilliant, self-sacrific-
ing service to his nation and to the
people"
AFL President William Green
said Secretary Schwellenbach
strove courageously to bring about
better relations between manage
ment and labor. His efforts to pre-
vent the passage of anti-labor leg
islation and to advance social jus
tice legislation were thwarted by
a reactionary Congress which re-
taliated by amputating the scope
and authority of the Labor Dept"
Schwellenbach, who held the post
as head Of the Labor Dept fol
just one month less than three
years, had the unenyiable job of
making the change-over from the
very strict wartime regulation of
labor-management relations to
policy of hands off directly after
the war. He then had to guide the
Labor Dept thru the fight against
the Taft Hartley law, and adjust
the department to the sharp fund
slashes and anti-labor laws passed
by the S0th Congress.
He took office on July /, 1945,
following the resignation of Labor
Secretary Frances Perkins who had
served ever since Franklin ID.
Roosevelt became president 'in
1888.
Schwellenbaeh, was, from 1895
to 1910, a Democratic member of
the Senate from Washington, and
took an active part in the battles
which shaped such landmarks of
the New Deal as the Wagner Act,
the Fair Labor Standards Act, the
farm security and youth aid pro
grams.

Rutgers Sessions Mark
New Extension Service.
18th On-Cdmpus Meet

New Brunswick (LPA)-For the
18th straight year, the Rutgers
University campus here has been
the scene of the week-long Insti-
tute of Labor sponsored by the N.
j. Federation of Labor and the
Workers Education Bureau. More
than 3C0 union and management
men and women were in atten-
dance.
The institute this year marked
the successful completion of the
first series of extension classes for
mionists, authorized and financed
by the state Legislature as part
of the state university's extension
program. Thousands of workers in
communities all over the state
have taken part in the classes,
which are under the direction of
Irvine Kerrison.
Plenty of opportunity for discus
sion from the floor was permitted,
and the institute saw several vig-
orous discussions on the Taft
Hartley law in which management
spokesmen who defended parts of
the law were corrected by union
men-such as members of the Int'i
Typographical Union who have
felt the TIL shackles.
Two sessions were marked by
discussions between labor and man.
agement spokesmen from the same
plant. Business Agent Charles E.
Hughes of Textile Workers CIO
Local 122 discussed with Vice-presi-
dent Harold Zulof of the Alexander
Smith Carpet Co., their mutual
problems.
Frank Pucci, president of Local
Ill, Chemical Workers-AFL, told
the story of the 10-year-old union
at the Calico division of American
Cyanamid Co., while R. P. Fisher,
of labor relations for
the company, pointed to the fact
that the company first tried to bust
the union, then became reconciled
to having it in the plant.
A strike in 1889, Pucci said, twas
a good thing for our relations, just
as it's good to have the men from
the plant sit down with some brass
hat like Fisher and get load off
their minds" When the union won
the strike, labor and management
