lhlre0 Tor the senate subcommittee
He said this consisted of work fol
the old WPA and investigation ir
the social welfare field.
Did you give information to
Drew Pearson or any other COL
umnist about Mr.. Fedder's story
Iof a ride?" MIR. Fried was asked
Yes" Mr.. Fried replied. BE
fore I went to work for this
subcommittee, 1 gave it to Mr.
Pearson. :. I tried to give it
| to Walter Winchell, too"
Mr.. Fried was asked by Senator
Hendrickson If it had occurred to
him that his retainment as an
investigator might embarrass the
subcommittee.
"Yes, sir. it did. My wife and
have talked it over often"
Then why not retire and tell
Mr.. Feeders story as an impair
tial witness?" the Senator asked.
Mr.. Fried said he objected to
the word impartial as implying
that he was biased"
Senator Hennings interposed
that it seemed to him the SUBJ
committee was in poor posi-
ton" to inquire of the witness
if he was in a proper position as
one of it's employees. He pointed
out that Mr.. Fried was no at
torney.
Integrity Not Challenged.
The Senator said Mr.. Fried's
integrity as an investigator hao
not been challenged by the sub
committee. He added that. while
an investigator, like Caesars wife
should be above reproach. he per-
so1ally did not know where to
hire that kind of investigators or
such an inquiry.
Senator Hennings asked thai
the record be clear that Mr.. Friee
was hired by persons not on the
subcommittee.
The Senator declared he felt il
unfair to tax the witness upon q
point of ethics which the Sen
ators themselves had not sought
to challenge until that time.
Chairman Monroney brought
out that Mr.. Fried expected only
temporary employment when he
went to work for the subcommit-
tee. All investigators are to wind
up their jobs at the end of this
month, according to pre-agree-
ment. 1t was said.
Fedder Called Back.
Mr.. Fedder was called back to
the stand yesterday in rebuttal
after three witnesses had called
him q liar about his contention
that he feared for his life while
on the ride through Baltimore.
The other men had said the
ride was merely a business deal tc
pick up Butler campaign post
cards which Mr.. Fedder had agreed
to get into the mail on a pre-.
election deadline. They said Mr.
Fedder fell down on his promise
and that they were collecting what
remained of the project,
Mr.. Fedder. however, insisted the
three men threatened him anc
forced him to go on the ride

Early in the summer, a great
swimmer made a confession. Writ
ing in a magazine, he told how he
had broken one of the rules OF
swimming, and had come very close
to drowning. He was almost dead
when, by good fortune, someone ap-
peared on the scene and took him
out of the water.
That man is champion swim
mer, but he went swimming alone
one morning, and suffered a stom-
ach cramp. This swim was taken
before breakfast, and there did
not seem to be any good reason
to fear such cramp.
The rule which he broke was
this
When you go swimming, always
have with you a companion who
knows how to swim"
Your swimming companion should
keep an eye on you, and you should
watch him. There should be mutual
aid between swimmers.
1t is rare for a person to have
a stomach cramp before breakfast.

Whether or not they are ex-
perts, most boys like to dive.
the old rule was made that people
should avoid swimming for at least
an hour after eating. Stomach
cramps are very painful, and often
lead to death.
A skillful doctor may save per-
son who breaks his neck. but that
is hardly a good reason to risk
your neck. A doctor may be far
from the scene. Before he or any
one else can reach a swimmer with
a broken neck, the swimmer is likely
to drown.
One way to risk your neck is to
dive where the water is shallow.
Despite all the warnings which hav>
been issued against this, there are
persons who take chances. Except
for dives from very high places,
a depth of seven or eight feet should
be safe.
Aonther point to remember is
this: Be sure that the water below
you is free of any other swimmer
when you take dive! If you strike
someone during a dive, both you and
he may be injured.
Slipping offers another danger
Take care when you approach the
edge of a pier, swimming pool OF
diving board. A slip may cause pain
full bruises or worse.
A few persons make the mis-
take of trying to show off, BY
swimming far out in the water oi
a lake or ocean. Something un.
expected may happen to them, az
cramps of legs, arms or abdomen.

\ West opened the eight of hearts,
East overlook with the nine and
laid down the heart king. In view
of East's bidding, declarer properly
feared an eight-card heart suit and
therefore ruffed the second lead
with the trump ace. He then caShed
the spade king and led low to the
jack getting the information that
both defenders had held two
trumps.
South now led a diamond toward
his king. East put up the ace and
returned a high heart. DeclarerI
ruffed, and when West discarded a
diamond, the length of East's heart
suit was confirmed.
South caShed the diamond king
and ruffed his third diamond with
dummy's low trump. Now the
count on Es SITS hand was COM
plete-he had held seven hearts, two
spades, three diamonds and con-
Sequently no more than one club.
Unfortunately, however, this knowl-
edge was of no value to declarer at
this point! He led a low club from
dummy to the king and on a club
return f1nesSed against the queen
but West was sure to make club
trick for the defeat of the contract.
1t was eminently proper for South
to conduct the play so as to get
count on East's distribution, but in
order to put this information to
use, declarer should have ruffed
his third diamond with dummy's
high trump! Then with the situa-
tion fully revealed, declarer could
take advantage of the fact that
East had singleton club. After
leading the club five to the king,
South could easily take the double
t1nesse against Vests club honors
Because he could get back with the
trump eight for the second phase
OF the club finesse.

AL Thompson tells me that I
neglected to give you the full
story of crab cookery several
weeks ago. They stab all crabs
with an ice pick, on the under
side near the apron, before
steaming them. In this way,
though it sounds cruel, they
are numbed before cooking and
don't fight in the kettle. The
idea behind it is not just to
preserve peace among she'll
fish, but to make the crabs
retain their claws and come out
beautifully whole. We can try
this same trick at home.
