Tool Builders
Hit Low Tariffs,
Hint at Moves

CHICAGO. April "a R.-
American machine tool builders
will move production facilities
overseas unless there are
changes in the tariff schedule.
the president Of the National
Machine Tool Building Associ-
alton said today.
Alfred v. Bodine. president
OF the Bodine Corp. of Bridge
port, Conn. said American tar
ifs on machine tool imports are
too low and foreign countries
tariffs and fees too high.
He told a spring meeting Of
the association that while
United States tariffs on imports
range from Is to 20 per cent.
some foreign countries have
imposed tariffs and fees on
United States exports totaling
SIS per cent.
Mr.. Bodine said exports Of
machine tools have dropped
from 80 10 10 per cent Of
United States production. He
added:
What is bound to happen.
under present circumstances. is
that American machine tool
builders will move production
capacity abroad. . - How can
this country be ready to defend
itself If this capacity is re-
duced? And does 1t make sense
for the United States. by its
policies. to hold back our own
machine tool capacity, while
We build up machine tool ca
pacity in Europe in locations
which could be overrun by the
Russians in a one-day push?"

Opening lead: Queen Of clubs
The other passing situation
is a little more pleasant 70
contemplate. Here we leave the
field of enforced caution and
enter the field, of strategy, mis-
direction, ambush and, OF
course, humanics.
Take today's hand, for ex-
ample. Mr.. Dale was loaded'
He had plenty in high cards
for a one-no-trump opening
After Miss Brash opened the
bidding on his right he had
plenty for q takeout double.
But he passed. And that was
his best action.
In fact the setup was Just
about perfect for a trap. First
the opponents were vulnerable
and Mr.. Dale was not. Next
the opener was a known over
bidder who might readily get
too high If not warned OF
danger. Then there was the
fact that Mr.. Dale's best hold
ing was in the principal suit
of the opener.
There was some risk, OF
course, that Miss BraSh and
her partner would drop the
bidding before they got into
real trouble, and in a spot
where they would not be play
ing doubled (as, for example,
II Mr.. Abel had passed out his
partners three-diamond bid
But that chance was more
than offset by the fact that
Mr.. Dale's side could not make
anything of importance even
! il he did enter the bidding.
So Mr.. Dale passed until his
Eopponents reached game and
then started doubling. Miss
Brash played the four-spade
contract as well as she could
and still went down 500 points
The moral, then, is to pas:
your right-hand opponents
opening bid when you have a
good hand whose principal
strength lies in the suit bio
by the enemy.
