The bidding:

Pass 2hearts Dbl. All pass
This is one of the few remaining
situations where there is consider
able difference of opinion and
considerable confusion.
Mr. New IS, by nature and train
ing. a kibitzer. He does so well,
seeing all four hands, that now and
then he has an urge to get into the
game. 1t looks so easy.
In today's deal Mrs. Keen bid a
club, Mr.. Abel doubled and Mr..
Champion redoubled. Now, Mr.. New
figured his partner had asked him
to bid his best suit.
This was wrong. AS soon as Mr..
New made his one spade call, his
side was in bad trouble. The
eventual two-heart contract was set
800 points.
Mr.. New should have passed.
Not only because his hand was so
weak, but also because his "best
suit" was what 1t was.
In other words, when he bid one
spade he cut out two bids, either
Of which Mr.. Abel might have
wanted to make. These bids were
zone diamond" and lone heart"
After the one-spade call, it was
necessary for Mr.. Abel to come in
at the two level if he wanted to
come in at all.
If Mr.. News best suit had been
diamonds it would not have been
nearly so bad for him to come in
with a one diamond bid after the
Fedouble.
That would have eliminated no
bids for Mr.. Abel who could have
passed one diamond If that suited
him or bid one heart or one spade
It his principal length and strength
lay in the majors.
Actually, though, holding only one
king and with a 1888 distribution,
there was no reason for Mr.. New
10 bid anything, even If his spade
and diamond holdings had been
reversed.
When you make bid after a re-
double, which skips one or more
suits, you should have some high
card strength and a pretty good
suit.
In today's deal. for example, Mr..
New properly could have bid one
spade on: S-K-J-10-8-6; HOO;
D-J-8-4-3 and C-3-2.

New Code Approved To Govern Treatment of AlaSka'S Mentally HI

WASHINGTON, (P-A bill to establish a new code to govern the treatment of mentally ill in Alas ka has been approved by the House Interior Affairs Committee.
 Delegate Bartlett CD Alaska) said the code would conform with the most modern and improved state laws for the mentally ill.
 A provision originally in the bill which would authorize the construction of hospital for such patients in Alaska was eliminated before the measure was approved.
 The committee also approved measures for the sale of small tracts of government land in Al aska as follows:
 Forty acres near. Glenallen to the Catholic bishop of northern Alaska for mission use; 135 acres near Kenai to the Alaska Council of Boy Scouts for a campsite; and 40 acres near Anchorage to the State Victory Bible Camp Ground, Inc, for a recreational camp.

JUN. Refuses to Return Red POW's In Chains, Cuffs

/ MUNSAN, Korea, (P) = U.N. truce negotiators Thursday ac- cused the Communists of insisting that thousands of Allied-held war prisoners be chained or hand cuffed and shipped back to the Reds like cattle.
 Maj. Gen. William K. Harrison told the Communists their de- mand for forced repatriation of all Allied-held prisoners "falls on deaf ears"
 'The JUN. will not forcibly and violently drive to your side any one who resists returning to you"
 He reiterated that the U. N. screening program showed Gin controvertibly" that 100000 pris- oners would rather die than re- turn to Communism.
 The chief JUN. negotiator's ad- dress came after North Korean General Nam Il charged that re- cent outbreaks of violence on Koje Island have proved the Allied principle of voluntary repatria- ton utterly bankrupt"
 Harrison again proposed an in- definite recess until the Reds call for another session, but the Com munists stuck to their insistence on daily meetings.

US. CURTAILS EXPORT OF STEEL MILL PRODUCTS

WASHINGTON, (P)-The gov- ernment Thursday halted the ex- port of all steel mill products ex- cept those essential to direct mil itary production of the United States or friendly countries, or essential to direct defense-sup- porting industries"
 The action was taken by the Commerce Department because of the strike which has cut off new production by the nations steel mills.
 It follows an embargo already placed on warehouse deliveries of steel to US. producers of con- sumer goods.

Gen. Grow To Be Court Martialed

WASHINGTON, (P)-Maj. Gen. Robert w. Grow, whose diary was stolen by Russian agents while he was visiting in Germany, will be tried by court martial, the Army announced Thursday.
 Grow was a military attache at the American embassy at Moscow.
 The announcement said that the Army had completed the investi- gation of the charges preferred against Grow and that trial by court martial is warranted.
 The Russians made propaganda use of the diary, publishing ex- cerpts in which Grow was depic- ted as advocating war now against Russia.
 The trial will be held at Fort Meade, Md, with the sessions closed to the public. The date for the trial was not announced.
 In March of 1851 Grow was in Frankfurt, Germany, for a medi- cal checkup. The Army has said that someone believed to be a Soviet spy slipped into his room there and photographed portions of the diary.
 The published excerpts attribu- ted such quotations to Grow as:
 "War! As soon as possible Now!
 "Our attack should be directed at enemy weakness. Although the military services are primarily concerned with military weapons and methods, we must understand that this war is total war and is fought with all weapons.
 eve must learn that in this war it is fair to hit below the belt"
 Since the Grow incident, the Army has forbidden all of it's personnel overseas to keep diaries or personal records involving mil itary matters.

negotiations in the next few
months.
The steel price boost will not
scare away many steel customers.
The steel mills feel confident they
can sell all they can make well
into 1858.
Their customers have used up
their inventories and are eager to
buy. Also retail trade is picking
up, and manufacturers see better
chance of selling more goods if
they make them.
Some question, however, whether
the manufacturers can pass on to
the customers in higher prices the
greater cost of steel and such other
materials as also may go up in
price.
Slow moving merchandise has
piled up in warehouses, and price
cutting has been more common
than price hikes. Some note
that many manufacturers haven't
rushed to insist on the higher re-
tail prices being restored on their
brand goods. as they could have
when the President signed the fair
trade bill.
But others think that price hikes
on many goods are inevitable.
They note that factory inventories
of finished goods have been falling
during the strike, and that some
recently depressed industries are
now in fine shape again as far as
inventories 60. Some see a sellers
market returning before the years
out.
Those who argue that initiation
although perhaps a mild one-is
certain also contend that manu-.
facturers' costs are likely to go
up again.
They believe the steel wage-price
hike is bound to spread to other
industries and cause general rise
in the cost of materials and labor.
With many industries not far
above their break-even point now,
any rise in costs will be passed
along in higher prices to consum-
erS.

While we hear a lot nowadays
about industry being taxed out of
existence, now we learn to our
amazement that taxes can work
both ways and in one instance at
least, an industry is being taxed
into business.
Following the repeal of prohibi-
ton the bootleg industry practical
ly went out of existence. LOCALIZED
liquor was available at prices that
made illegal distilling Improbable
and not worth the risk.
In less than 10 years since the
repeal of prohibition taxes on dis
titled liquors have gone UP from
$1.1o per gallon to $1,000 per gal
lon an increase of 8S4 per cent.
And this is only one of the % Sc
parate taxes laid on this industry.
As a result, bootlegging is four
ishing again. and according to Earl
Leonard, Southeastern Represen-
tative of Licensed Beverage Indus
tries, Inc. national public relations
organization for the alcoholic be-
verage industry, almost as many
stills were seized by law enforce
ment officers last year as were
seized in any year during the hey
day Of prohibition.
Leonard said that the Illegal
stills seized last year 20,317 OF
them - had capacity of $4,000
gallons a day which is more than
the capacity of all legal distillers
in the country combined; great
deal more since legal distilleries
have daily capacity Of only AGO.
900 gallons.
Today the government is taking
in less tax revenue from liquor
than it did before the present high
tax was imposed, although liquor
consumption appears to be on the
increase.
The figures quoted by Leonard
apply to only the known stills that
have been put out of operation. No

as to the amount Of Illegal liquor
