Emotional Maturity More Important
For Survival Than H-Bon1b, Doctor Says

he can be patient, and, above all,
he has the qualities of adapta-
bility and compromise.
While most of us attain physi-
cal and mental maturity, if we
measure ourselves by DR.. Streck-
er's yardstick we may find that
we lack emotional maturity. which
is most important Of all.
DR.. Strecker in conclusion
states: 'The attainment of emo
tional maturity for a larger and
increasing number of our citizens
is the most important considera-
ton that I know of. It is impor-
tant not only for the individual
but also, I think, upon it depends
the survival of our democracy
All in all, it is more important
for our survival than the atomic
or H bomb"

keneipp Reports Sales Lag
lin 1850 Auto Taqs

District motorists do not seem
to be in any hurry to obtain their
new automobile tags, Traffic Di-
rector George E. Keneipp said to-
day. The sales Of tags are about
5000 daily behind last years sales,
he said.
Many of the applications re-
ceived by the traffic department
have to be sent back because the
applicants do not inclose their
registration card, fail to inclose
their check or make the check
out incorrectly. The checks must
be made payable to the Collector
of Taxes, D. C.
Mr.. Keneipp is recommending
that applicants come to the traffic
department in the Municipal Gen.
ter Building to obtain their tags
instead of mailing the applica-
tions. He said the lines at the
tag windows are never long and
there is little waiting time.

Goren on Bridqe

A wide variety of temperaments
was displayed when todays hand
was played at recent tourna-
ment. The contract most frequently
selected was three no-trump, in
which case most of the West players
elected to open the nine of hearts,
preferring not to lead spades into
the bidder.
Declarer, with the idea of max
ing an axtra trick in that suit
with the jack, permitted the open
ing lead to ride. East won with
the queen and promptly shifted to
the jack Of clubs. Holding the
major tenace, declarer was un-
able to resist the temptation to
fnesse and put in the queen. This
lost to the king and the suit was
continued until declarer took the
third round with the ace. When
East subsequently regained the
avalanche of clubs ensued.
Declarer could have assured the
safety of the contract by taking
the first heart trick and driving
out the ace of diamonds. Even
after ducking the heart, declarer
could have recovered by refusing
to take the club flnesse, The ace
of clubs wins the lead and the dia-
mond suit is cleared. When the
10 of clubs comes back, declarer
ducks and when West wins the
next trick with the king, the suit
is blocked and nine tricks are
scored.
At one table the proper contract
of six diamonds was reached
which would have been easy to
fulfill had either diamonds or
hearts broken. At another table
the slam contract was reached and
made despite the bad break. The
play involved using South's high
diamonds to ruff the hearts and
then finessing against Vests 10 of
diamonds.
AS for the bidding, when South
elects to jump to three no-trump,
North should not be content to
rest. Opposite a partner who has
promised wealth of high cards
a five-f1ve distribution offers tre-
mendous trick-taking power and
North would be justified in call
ing four diamonds. This must not
be construed as an attempt tc
rescue partner from no-trump.
Any player who is strong enough
to open the bidding and then jump
to three no-trump doesn't require
any -maiding from partner
who doesn't like no-trump. There
fore, any bid at this point indicates
either enormous diStributional pos.
sibihties or sufficient high cards
to suggest the possibility of slam

Court Grants BeckIey
$500 Of Stolen Sum,
But Stays Payment

Ex-policeman Richard H. Beck
ley, who repeatedly lost more than
100000 in a year-old safe theft
today had a court judgment to
recover $6,700 of the stolen sum
But the 70-year- colored man
still was only little closer to
actually laying hands on the cash.
Judge Matthew MCGUIRE yes
terday decreed that Mr.. Beckley
is rightful claimant to the $6,700
reported residue from the theft
on which two brothers, Stance
and Oliver James. colored, were
convicted and sentenced from
3-to-9 year terms.
At the same time, the judge
ordered that the United States
Marshal's Office, which holds the
money, cannot turn it over to Mr.
Beckley until the United States
Court of Appeals rules on the con-
victionS. Their appeal has been
pending more than a month.
Judge MCGUIRE held a day-long
trial in District Court to decide
the question of ownership. At
torney George E. C. Hayes pro-
duced witnesses who traced the
theft to the James brothers.
Others testified as to the ap-
parently sudden aff1uence of the
defendants soon after the theft.
The James were said to have
bought a 1948 Cadillac, a motor
cycle and clothing, as well as to
have paid a substantial deposit
on a home after the January %,
1949 theft of a safe from Mr..
Beckley. at 1900 New Jersey ave-
nue. NV.
The brothers explained their
wealth as the result of a SIS hit"
on the numbers. On that basis,
they claimed the money as their
own.
