A Word to the Wise 8, Mrs. Frank Colby

The Japanese word JUDO has
puzzled many readers. They
state that they have seen the
word used to designate what they
think should properly be called
JUJITSU, q kind Of wrestling.
The fact is that judo. pronounced
JOO-doe, and jujitsu, prounced
joo-JIT-soo, are one and the
same, designating q method Of
offense and defense In personal
combat without weapons. Judo
means "soft or gentle method. !"
and jujitsu, an Anglicized form
of the Japanese jujutsu, means
"the soft or yielding art" Jujitsu
is also spelled jiujutsu and
jiujitsu.

What Mr.. Champion wished
he had bid was three no-trump.
And agree with him. With Mr..
Muzzy as a partner, why fool

bids?
From the North seat it looked
like a no-trump hand, so why
not try to get the play? Why
subject Mr.. Muzzy to the strain
Of acting as declarer? Especially
when that strain would auto
matically extend to Mr.. Muzzy's
partner.
But Mr.. Champion spoke too
quickly and when the bidding
came around to Mr.. Muzzy, he
got the no-trump call in first.
AS a matter of fact this partic-
ular hand was a hard one to
louise up, even for Mr.. Muzzy.
But with typical ingenuity, he
found a way.
The six of diamonds was
opened and all Mr.. Muzzy had
to do was to duck the first trick.
However, the contract looked
easy to him and he went right
up with dummy's ace. Here
Miss Brash started the key de-
fensive play which eventually
brought about the defeat Of the
hand.
Using the rule of II (deducting
the number Of the card led from
ID, she found there were five
diamonds higher than the six
spot outside Of Mr.. Abel's hand.
So she dropped the jack on the
first trick and awaited develop
ments.
At trick two Mr.. Muzzy led
dummy's jack of clubs and let
1t ride. Mr.. Abel won with the
king and returned the four of
diamonds. Mr.. Muzzy. playing
in haze Of over optimism, won

From Mr.. Abels play Of the
four spot. Miss Brash knew he
had started with five diamonds
and therefore Mr.. Muzzy had
only one left. So she played the
queen to avoid blocking the suit.
This convinced Mr.. Muzzy that
she was now out of diamonds.
Now his only fear was. that Mr..
Abel had the ace of hearts. He
led a heart to the Jack at the
next trick and was overjoyed
when it was Miss Brash who won.
Miss Brash waited for Mr..
Muzzy's elation to subside and
then calmly led the five Of dia-
monds for Mr.. Abel to take three
more tricks.
"I've been stabbed" Mr.. Muzzy
screamed. "Where'd you get that

Answer: Fifty million French
men can't be wrong. Inciden-
tally, it is best usage to speak Of
a Chinese, not a "Chinaman."
The word MORON is familiar
enough in the meaning Of "a
somewhat feeble-minded per-
son." but not many of us have
learned that the pronunciation
"muh-RAHN" has no sanction.
The word derives from moros,
the Greek word for fool" The

Edison. absorbed in expert

At one time, she wanted

the disreputable garment.
One day a new guard was
hired at the plant. The fol-
lowing morning, when the
inventor appeared at the

was a tramp and would not
let him pass. That same
afternoon, Edison bought q

Indeed. the American delegation
seems rather to pride itself on

There is some contempt for

fascinated by the unusual at
tention that is being lavished
on them.
This may be true enough, but
it hardly answers the challenge.
The new tactics indicate q long
delayed awakening of the Com

bourgeois press, for all its de-
ficiencies, is an instrument worth
exploiting. They are setting
about it with vengeance. And
unless they want to be scooped

remarked that although prob
lens with Russia in Europe have
not been solved, the East and
West are getting along there
without fighting.
Asked if he meant to imply
that he would be agreeable to
a partition of Indo-China as
Germany is divided, the PreSi-
dent emphasized that he did not
mean to indorse even by in
direction any particular step to
stop the fighting in Indo-China.
Gen. Eisenhower expressed
with unusual vigor his opposi-

by Representative Coudert. Re-

ton bill banning the sending of
American troops into combat

Mr.. Dulles insisted, as South
Korea had earlier. that the

Korea be allowed to proceed
with its long -stymied plans to
hold free elections in the Com

jected North Korean proposals
for an election without foreign

Ranging on from Korea, the
Peiping spokesman demanded an

AT this point. one might have

He explained that he did not
want to go into that now in view
of the conference in Geneva,
but suggested to his questioner
that he might be able to provide
considerable chronological de-
tail if the question were brought
up after the conference were
over.
Asked about. complaints from
some Democrats in Congress
that they had not been ade-
quately consulted about the
Indo- China situation, the Presi-
dent said his administration is
doing everything it can so far
as it is feasible and possible to
keep both parties informed He
said there had been at least
three bipartisan consultations at
the State Department during
the month of April alone.
The President told another
questioner he was not consider
ing at this moment any overall
or marked upward revision of
his defense budget in view of
the Indo-China crisis. He said
some upward revision had been
suggested on specific points in
the budget, however.
Questioned on Middle East.
A question about military aid
to Israel and neighboring Arab
states brought from the Presi-
dent an emphatic assertion that
any American military aid to
foreign countries is not given
for the purpose of assisting in
any local wars OF any kind.
He asserted that such assist
ance is given only for the COM
mon purpose of opposing COM

The President was cautious in

French Planes Blast
Wet Mini EncircIinu
Besieged Fortress
BY the Associated Press

HANOI, Indo- China, April 20.
French warplanes swooped
down through cloudy skies today
to hammer at Wet Mimi troop
concentrations, m m mi 10 n
dumps and supply routes from
Red China leading to besieged
Dien Bien Phu.
The French high command re-
ported no important land fight
ing around the threatened north
west Indo-C China fortress. French
Union defenders continued vio-
lent artillery duels with the
Communicated rebels pounding
away at the heart Of the Dien
Bien Phu plain.
Transport planes roared in low
over the fortress, Drawing Wet
Mini anti-aircraft fire to dump
more tons of ammunition and
other war supplies to the en-
battled fortress and its isolated
SouthernmoSt strongpoint, cut
off from ground contact with
the main defense area.
The Wet Mimi had stepped up
pressure against that outpost
"Isabelle"-in scattered fighting
around the fortress yesterday.
Early Attack Expected.
French military sources believe
the Wet Mimi soon will try to
smash the isolated strongpoint
and then move northward to
tighten their moose around the
main fortress area, three miles
away.
The defenders continued to
throw up additional fortiflcations
inside the heart of the fortress,
whose perimeter has narrowed to
less than mile in diameter.
In Saigon, Prince Buu Loc,
premier of the Indo-C Chinese state
of Wet Nam, came out fatty
today against any dismember-
ment or partition of his war;
stricken country, such as the
Soviet Union and Red China
have been reported read to pro-
pose at the Far East conference
in Geneva.
Stand Same as Bao Dai's.
This stand already has been
expressed on several occasions by
Wet Mans chief of state, ex-
Emperor Bao Dai, who is in
France negotiating with the
Paris government on his coun-
try'S status. Buu Loc supported
this in a statement issued just
before he left Saigon to join Bao
Dai in France.
The Premier took along
briefcaSe' full of proposed gov
ernment reforms he hopes Bao
Dai will approve as a move to
increase popular support for the
tottering government.
