The bidding:
South West North East
! no-trump Pass Pass Pass
Opening lead, two OF hearts.
The ability to capitalize to ths
full extent on the slightest error OF
the opposition is one Of the distin-
gushing marks Of the truly fine
player. One is frequently heard to
say, when his partner has pointed
out that q contract could have been
defeated. But declarer could have
made the hand by playing 1t in an
other manner" True enough, he
could have, but he didn't, and fall
ure to take advantage Of his false
step is no less egregious an error.
South opened the bidding with q
no-trump. Despite the lack Of a
club stopper, I consider his was the
appropriate bid on the hand. 1t will
be found that on balanced hands
with count ranging from l6 to l9,
a smoother bidding sequence will be
achieved If the opening bid is one
no-trump. An opening bid Of one
diamond might put the dealer to an
immediate guess if his partner
should respond with one no-trump,
for example. He would not know
whether to raise to two no-trump,
which might be in jeopardy, or to
pass, which might result in the loss
of a game if partner has a maxi
mum no-trump response.
West opened the two of hearts and
the 10 forced the king. Declarer
could run seven tricks at once, but
since this was played In tourna-
ment, he tried for overtricks by
Ileading a club Immediately. West
ducked and declarer misguessed by
playing the jack East won with
the queen and returned the jack
Of hearts.
This trick declarer should unques-
tionably have taken. There was no
point to the holdup. But declarer
made the error of permitting East
to hold the trick. While he was
pondering, West did a little CAL
culating of his own. Since declarer
had not gone for dummy's longest
suit, Out started working on dummys
only possible entry, it was reason
able to assume that the diamonds
were solid. This marks declarer
with the ace. king and queen Of
diamonds and the ace and king Of
hearts. He cannot, therefore, have
both the king and queen of spades.
since he would have too much for
bid of one no-trump.
1t was vital to get East to shift to
a spade. How could this be done?
The only way was to give East the
impression that the opening lead
had been made from a three-card
suit and that 1t would be futile to
continue it. West tried to create
the impression by dropping the nine
of hearts under the jack. This
would suggest that the queen would
fall next time. East should, there
fore, have shifted to a spade and
the contract would have been de-
feated two tricks, the defense taking
five spades, two clubs and heart.
But East failed to draw the proper
inference from the play OF Vests
nine Of hearts and continued the
suit. Declarer woke up in time to
take off his top-card tricks.

Behind the Scenes In
American Business

New York, Major oil compan-
les now face new competition
from the gas industry in the
house heating field.
The Federal Power Commits
sion has approveds plans for the
construction of a gigantic pipe
line to carry natural gas from
the Gulf coast to New York and
other middle Atlantic points.
This may cause oil companies
to change their strategy. Re-
Gently they have been temper
arily restraining the promotion
of oil heat units, except in cas-
es of replacement, on the
ground that the fuel oil supply
was inadequate. They now must
decide whether to step up their
promotion or face an eventual
loss of a large share of their
potential customers to gas.
The first source of action
seems more likely. Oil produc-
ton currently is at an all-time
high, and some industry sour
ces believe that the fuel oil
supply will be from eight to IL
per cent better this year than
last
Incidentally, right now is the
best time to order heating
equipment. A wide selection of
all types of burners is avail
able and immediate delivery is
assured. This situation, how
ever, could change overnight,
for residential building current
ly is 25 per cent above 1947
levels and the potential mar
ket for replacement burners re-
mains high.

CHICKEN OF TOMORROW
The entire poultry industry is
focusing its attention on
Georgetown, Delaware, where on
June "a the results of a nation
wide breeding contest will be
made public, and $1,000 in
awards presented by A and p
Food Stores.
The 1913 finals of the Chic
ken-of-TOmorrow contest has
10000 prize birds, representing
the best breeding efforts OF 40
of the nations outstanding
poultrymen, competing for hon
ors as a superior m~eat-tyne
chicken.
The national contest culmin-
ates three years of state, dis
trict and regional contests de-
signed to produce an added
meat chicken THAT will help the
So billion poultry industry. Sup
erviSed by a committee of in
dustry experts and representa-
tiyesl of the u. S. Department
of Agriculture, the program al
ready has developed several
breeds with superior meat char
acteristics.
BITS O. BUSINESS-the cost
of doing business in department
stores rose two per cent on sales
in 1947, marking the sharpest
advance since 1882. Half of the
rise was ascribed to higher pay
roll costs r.. Consumer Gre
dit climbed to another record
high in April, with a gain dur
ing that month of $219,000,000
bringing to $13 500, 100000 the
total volume of credit outstand-
ing on retail buying 90. Mass
vacations are taking hold, with
entire plants shutting down in
order to give all employees a
simultaneous holiday -. The
chemical industry is on the road
to new production records -.
Soybean producers are worried
about a decline in output. DeS-
pite the fact that soybeans are
worth about five per cent more
than they were in 1947. farmers
have planted less this year.
More profit in corn -. Meat
production in the third quarter
this year is expected to be 10 per
cent less than the like period
a year ago. Gwilyn A. Price,
president of the Westinghouse
Electric Corporation, predicts
that the use of electricity in
tht United States will climb 70
per cent during the next decade
to an annual consumption rate
of about 374 billion kilowatt
hours.

Dear Eric Johnston:

Dear Eric Johnston:
You could have knocked me over
with a gangster scenario when ]
read in the paper that you were not
only chairman Of the National Con-
ference on Family Life in America
but that at its Washington meeting
you made an impassioned speech
calling on everybody to rally and
fight for the protection Of Amer
lean family life and to keep the
young on the right paths. This was
because ! was under the impression
you were also the top man in the
movie industry, the one fellow in
the country in a swell position to
protect the home and to keep the
kids from getting too many films
b~lueprinting murder and crime
techniques. But this must be some
other Johnston and I am glad ]
realized the mistake. I hate to 60
off half-cocked.
Well, your fine speech certainly
reused me and when you told the
delegates from all over the coun-
try in a straight from the Shout
der talk that the protection Of the
American home was a paramount
issue of the day / felt like cheer
ing.
You appealed to the National
Conference on American Family
Life to find ways to help the family
strengthen itself and you stirred
fathers and mothers everywhere by
your deep interest.
There is no greater threat to the
American home and to the future
of this nation than the present
alarming crime trend among chill
dren. In one day the papers car
ried the story of three 1~2-year-olds
who waylaid and shot a citizen in
the back; of a half dozen school
children who riddled a teachers
home with bullets from Win
chesters. and of an 11-year-old child
"shot by six boys who mistook him
for a member of a rival gang"
Where do the kids get such
ideas? The idea of getting armed
to the teeth and doing some
humping off is not natural to any
child and it is not taught in any
home, Mr.. Johnston. Everybody
is with You in your realization of
the despair and sorrow felt
around American firesides as
such things go on and we r so
glad you see the situation so
clearly.
Will you forward a copy of your
speech to the Eric Johnston who
has that big job in Hollywood and
who could do so much so easily
to protect the fireside and keep the
kids from learning criminal ways?
Yours truly
Elmer.
P.S.-Where do you speak next
and could you arrange to get the
other Eric on the same platform?
