A WORD
TO THE WISE
BY MRS. FRANK COLBY

I dislike to take public issue
with another columnist. but as
an advocate of good usage in
speech and writing, I feel it my
duty to squelch misinformation
wherever I may find it.
A certain columnist who has
begun to dabble in word origins,
pronunciation. and grammar
calls forth wild and agonized
yelps of protest from the United
States Navy by declaring that in
speaking of ship that is in for
ward motion tunder way it is
correct to say that she is under
weigh!
Weigh" and way" in nautical
language have meanings that are
as unlike as day and night.
From Naval Technology. all
official pamphlet Of the United
States Navy. "Aweigh, of bot
tom. said of an anchor. Under
way. not at anchor, not made
fast to the shore, nor aground"
From Naval Customs. Tradi-
tons, and Usages, by Comdr.
Leland P. Lovette. USE. an off,
cial publication of the United
States Naval Institute: weigh,
TO lift the anchor from the
ground. The term must not be
COMPOUNDED with way as is
often the case"
From Webster's New 1nterna-
tional Dictionary. Second Edi-
ton: "Aweigh. just clear OF the
ground. and hanging perpendic-
ularly so that a vessel can begin
TO make Roadway; said Of an
anchor. Underweieh, through
confusion Of under way with
weigh anchor"
An example Of the correct
usage is found in this quotation
from Watch Officer's Guide. a
textbook Of the Naval Institute
1.-The important thing is TO be all
ready for getting under way in
ample time to assure fair
start wit hthe other ships. both
as to heading and as to anchors
aweigh."
All Of which adds up to this.

Sometimes it is obvious. of
course. that if you do not take
your ace you will not win an
other trick. At other times,
however. logical reasoning can
bring you to the conclusion that
the play of the ace will ruin your
chances. whereas playing low
will at least keep those chances
alive.
Follow Mr.. Masters reasoning
In today's deal. His partner
opened the nine of clubs against
the spade slam and Mr.. Cham
pion won with the ace in the
closed hand. Two rounds of
trumps were taken, ending or
the board. Now dummy's 10 of
hearts was led and it was up to
Mr.. Masters.
He played low after thinking
along these lines: Mr.. Meek's
lead of the nine of clubs was
clearly top of nothing. Mr..
Meek had three clubs or less.
With as many as four clubs he
would have led his fourth high
est. Therefore Mr.. Champion
had as many as three clubs.
AS for the diamond suit, Mr.,
Masters could see in his hand
and the dummy all but Q-J-10-
7-3 of the suit. If Mr.. Cham
pion had two diamonds or less.
dummy's ace and king would
assure him Of no losers there.
If he had more than two dia-
monds, then he must have at
least one of the honors queen,
Jack or 100.
In this latter case Mr.. Meek
could not have more than two
cards in the suit. and even if
they were both honors they
would fall under the ace and
king. So there were no tricks
for the defenders in diamonds.
Obviously there were no tricks
for the defense in the trump
suit and it became clear that if
the slam could be beaten, it
would have to be beaten in
hearts and o clubs. On this
thinking Mr.. Masters ducked
the heart lead and Mr.. Meek
won with the king. Suisse
quently there was no way for
Mr.. Champion to avoid the loss
of club trick or another heart.
If Mr.. Masters had played his
ace of hearts at trick four Mr..
Meek's king could have been
ruffed out. setting up a heart
winner in the closed hand on
which a club could have been
discarded from dummy.

In listing some of the rea-

Senator John F. Kennedy.
Democrat of Massachusetts,.
called for a new look at Latin
America by new Democratic
administration" in an address
here yesterday.
The Senator said that a map
which accompanied the now
famous Life Magazine article
on what he termed Secretary
of State Dulles fine art of
brink diplomacy" Illuminated
a basic defect in our foreign
policy"
According to the lines on the
map, he said, Mr.. Dulles has
been to Europe many times.
But only once. and then only
to the northern tip, has Mr..
Dulles journeyed south to re-
assert our traditional interest
in maintaining Pan-American
unification," he declared.
Mr.. Dulles travel routes"
he added. ARE symbolic of the
neglect Latin America has
suffered under the present ad-
ministration."
Senator Kennedy spoke at a
luncheon of the Woman's Ma
tional Democratic Club honor
ing the New England States.
Hits at ColOnialism
He also asserted that the
United States must make it
clear to the world that it is
against colonialism, whether
OF the Communist or Western
variety.
And. in a third area, he
charged that steady attrition
in our military strength has
been permitted during the past
three years on the assumption
that more defense could be
bought with less money.
Yet the United States may
become involved in a struggle
at any time. he warned. THE

the Chinese Communists may
this winter sail east to For
mosa. No one can say what

In another criticism of the
Secretary of State. he said,
Nothing could be more unfor-
tunate than Mr.. Dulles deci-
sion to join the Foreign Secre-
tary of Portugal in a state
ment in regard to Goa at a
time when the Russians were
involved in a celebrated visit
to India"
The Senator detailed what
he charged was administra-
ton neglect of Latin America

Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture Earl L. ButZ yesterday
said that the farm problem
was definitely a soft spot in
our economy.
DR.. Butt, addressing the
League of Republican Women's
morning study group. said that
because our overall economy
was good and farming was
the weak spot. the farm issue
would be one of the big cam
paign issues.
There will be a dispropor-
tionate interest in the farm
problem" he said.
The former head of agricul-
tural economics at Purdue Uni
versity explained parity. why
it is difficult to give surpluses
away, the flexible farm sup
ports and various aspects of
the farmers plight.
Political VS.. Economic
DR.. Butt listed the agricul-
ture problems as the political
versus the economic; the ex-
pedient versus the sound; and
the short-time policy versus
the long range policy.
He called the Eisenhower
Benson" farm policy politically
unsound especially in election
year. He said that it was
high time as a Nation that
we do away with short-time
politically inspired solutions.

Agriculture Benson's farm
policy sound and said that

badly needed capital for de-

resources" he continued.
When Mexican American
negotiations on a wetback
labor treaty begged down. The
President, in unneighborly
fashion, asked Congress for a
law authorizing American re-
cruitment of Mexican labor
without Mexico's consent, and
signed it for future use. even
though an agreement had been
concluded by that time.
Propaganda Funds
AT the very time Com
munist propagandists in Qua
temala and elsewhere were
making astonishing progress
in 1854. the Republicans re-
fused to approve necessary in
creases in funds for our own
information and propaganda
activities" he added.
But Communist propaganda
has been stepped UP in the
Western Hemisphere as well
as in the East, he asserted.
Neutralism. anti-American-
ism and even pro-Commu-
nism, he said, are prevalent
among many peoples to the
south of us as well as those
across the ocean. And the
standard of living, he added, in
many parts of South and Cen
trail America is just as i'm
poverished as in the poorest
sections of Africa and Asia.
Senator Kennedy said tina,
a bipartisan foreign policy
didn't mean that there must
be bipartisan silence" OF
that Democrats must support
policies which they believe will
impair national security.

In explaining how it was

the Assistant Secretary told
the group that even though

said that one OF the more sue
