800 MILLION MORE TAX
DOLLARS DOWN THE DRAIN

The synthetic rubber plants are in
similar category. These plants were
built by the government during World
War II when our supply of natural
rubber was cut off. Scientists and re-
searchers learned a great deal about
the production of synthetic rubber
while operating these plants for the
government. After the war some of
the plants were sold and others dis
continued. The % still remaining in
the hands of the government cost the
American taxpayer $500 million.
These plants were leased to private ,
operators and were bringing in an an
nual income of $45 million Not a bad
return on the original investment. But
in order to "get the government out
of business" these plants will be sold.
1t is estimated that private rubber
companies will be able to buy them
for not more than 5000 million.
| wonder about the logic behind
arguments that it is all right for
the public to operate a business
for itself as long as the operation
is losing money-but the minute
it gets into the black somebody
comes along and says, "See here,
you can't do that, that's socialism,
you sell it to me for half price,"
1t hasn't been too long, | recall,
when a private bus company was
to pull out of western
Montana city where it was losing
money. A committee of businessmen
that the city take over this
losing proposition ''in the public in
5erest." The entire legislative delega-
lion from that city was prepared to
sponsor legislation to permit the city
% run the bus line. Using a queer
double standard that would have been
III right as long as the line was los
ng money-but when it started to
show a profit for the general pub
ic who owned it, Immediately the
ry, Socialism" would go up and
here would be a demand that it be
old to some private operator at a
oss.

Technically, you are right,
Doctor. The proprieties of the
game say. "a player should re-
frain from calling with special
emphasis, infection or intona-
ton or giving by word, manner
or gesture, an indication Of the
nature of the hand held"
That is the ideal and we
should all try to conform to it.
But bridge players are people
and bridge is an exciting game
of wits. In this column I merely
report what happens and I would
not be giving a true picture If
! reported that all players fol-
lowed the above proprieties
completely at all times.
Surely you must know from
your own games that now and
then a player who wouldn't
dream of taking unfair advan-
tage of his opponents, lets loud
double slip in or possibly directs
an angry glance at his partner.
I am not condoning any devia-
ton from the absolute in ethical
play. In my game deviations do
occur, although not often. They
will continue to occur unless the
game is given up by human be-
ings and played exclusively by
paSSionleSS automatonS.
OF course. I realize that there
is very small minority of play
ers who follow the practice of
bidding and playing their cards
with special emphasis and with
conscious intent to defraud their
opponents. The only defense
against such players is simply
not to play with them.
In today's deal, Mr.. New could
not keep the elation out Of his
voice when he doubled five dia-
monds. What more could he ask
for, holding three sure CD win
ners against his vulnerable oppo-
nentS. AS it happened, Mr..
Champion was not impressed
with the loudness of the double.
He just took the action warrant
ed by his own cards. Holding
no defensive values, he went on
to five spades. AS you see, he
was right as usual, because Miss
Brash would have wrapped up
II tricks in diamonds.
