SHEINWOLD ON BRIDGE
unlocking Play Develops Entry
BY ALFRED SHERWOOD

South neeoed three club
tricks to make his contract.
For this purpose he wanted to
lead clubs twice from dummy.
How could declarer get to the
dummy twice? The ace of
hearts was one entry. but where
was the other?
The jack Of diamonds was
the other entry--but only If
South go rid of the king.
Let's see how it worked out:
East returned his six of dia-
monds ct the second trick and
West won with the queen. Now
South could get to dummy with
the jack Of diamonds to lead
a club.
South naturally finessed the
queen Of clubs, winning the
trick. He got back to dummy
with the ace Of hearts to lead
another club. This time he
finessed the jack of clubs, win
ming the finesse once more.
Now South had nine easy
tricks-two spades, three hearts,
one diamond and three clubs.
Stinginess Doesn't Pay
South would lose his game
contract If he made the stingy
play at the first trick. Suppose
South plays a low diamond in
stead of the king. East returns
a diamond and South can take
his king.
South still wins only one dia-
mond trick. The only differ
ence Is that he wins 1t with his

Laws Defends Nadcp After White
Citizens Council Attack in Ia

Clarence A. Laws, field sec.
Rotary for the Southwest Region
al Office of the Naacp defends
Nlacp after an unWarranted at.
tack by the White Citizens Coun.
ell in Louisiana.
The White Citizens Council
of Louisiana deplored the &C.
ton of the Louisiana State eoun-
Gil AFL-CIO in electing Ellis A
Bryant, a vice president of the
council. According to a resolution
made public in one of tn Louis.
lana daily papers, the White Cit.
liens council based its alarm
over Mr.. Bryants election be.
Gauss he was an official of the
Naacp, and the Naacp is IAN or
ganizatlon inflltrcted by Com
munist, Socialists and subver-
sives.
In letter by Mr.. Laws to the
spokesman for the Shreveport
White Citizens council, of which
the text is reproduced, Mr.. Laws
set out to deny the allegation
made about the Naacp.
The letter:
April 30, 1858
Mr.. A. B. Cox
Shreveport White Citizens Coun-
Gil
637 Kingshighway
Shreveport, Louisiana
Dear Mr.. Cox
I have just received a clipping |
from the Shreveport Journal of
April rs, 1858, wherein your or
ganization. The Shreveport White
Citizens Council, made public a
resolution "deploringp the cleo
ton of Mr.. Ellis A. Bryant. Jr.
as vice president at large of the
Louisiana State Council AFL :
CIO. The reason for your alarm
is declared to be II Mr.. Bryant |
is president of the Shreveport |
Branch of the National AsSocia-
ton for the Advancement of |
Colored People, and p The NAA
CP is said to be IAN organiza-
ton infiltrated by Communist.
Socialists and subversives"
Mr.. Bryant is now and has
been for a number of years the
president of the Shreveport
Branch of the NAACP. In that
capacity he has been concerned
only with securing for all citi-
zens the rights and privileges
guaranteed by the United States
Constitution and Bill of Rights /
These rights, as you we'll know
are now enjoyed by all citizens
of Louisiana except Negroes this
includes even the foreign born
population.
Since when has it become sub
versive in this land of the free
for men to strive for their free
dom?
Tht second charge could be
made only by a person or per-
sons who are totally uniformed
of the aims, purposes and, struc-
ture of the NAACP or those who
wish to deliberately misrepreSent
the Association to enhance some
selfish end Believing the former
is the case, l am taking this
method to tell you som thing "a
bout the National Association.
The NAACP was founded in
1909, many years before the
Communist Party came into be-
ing. The aims of the NAACP
have been unchanging through
out the years, namely; To re-
move from American life all
forms of racial segregation and
their attendant ills and evils.
From its inception the NAACP
has been intrrracial and inter-
faith. Some of Americas noblest
citizens have helped to guide its
destiny.
Distinguished persons from every
walk of life have acclaimed it. !
Arkansas State press. [volume] (Little Rock, Ark.) 1941-1959, 1958-05-09

This list includes such persons
as Bishop William ]. Walls, Rab-
bi Irving Miller, Senator Wayne
l.. Morse, Francis Cardinal SPELL
man. F. B. I. Director ]. Edgar
Hoover, Dr. Ralph j. Bunehe, and
President Els nhower.
Because the matter in question
has to do with organized labor,
| think it only proper and fitting
that two of the greatest leaders
in the history of Organized la
Dor should be heard. Said the
late Mr.. Phillip Murray, THE
activities of the NAACP, through
out the last forty years deserve
the support of all Americans in
terested in making democracy
work for all citizens
Declared the late Mr. William
Green, Il commend the NAACP
for the constructive service it is
rendering through education and
organized efforts in the promo
ton of the principle of democracy
and the democratic process.
Mr.. Walter Reuther, head of
the powerful United Auto Work.
ers Union is today a member OF
the National Board of the NAA
CP.
No reasonable person in this
country questions the fact that
Mr.. Hoover is the top authority
on Communist activities and SUBJ
version in the United States and
probably the world Referring to
the NAACP sometime ago, the
F B. l. Director asserted, Equal
ity, freedom and tolerance are
essential in a democratic govern
ment. The NAACP has done much
to preserve these principles and
to perpetuate the desires of our
founding fathers.
In Mr. Hoover's much publiciz-
ed book titled Masters of Deceit
which was released only last
month, he traces the Communists
vigorous efforts" to infiltrate
the NAACP and declared that
1.-The NAACP's national lead1r-
ship has vigorously denounced
communist attempts at infiltra-
ton. Referring to the method
used by NAACP leader in Nor
folk, Virginia in locating and
ejecting communist from
branch meeting, Mr.. Hoover said
it was "one of the most effec-
tive anticommunist measures
ever heard Of.
Among the many congratula-
tory messages received by the N
AACP on the occasion of its 48th
Annual Convention at Detroit, in
1857 was one from President Els
enhower. The Presidents message
reads, Our country is founded
upon the principle that all men
are created equal and all should
take an equal share in the re-
sponsibilities of government. AS
you have helped by word and
deed-to bring substance to this
fundamental American objective,
you have contributed to the
strength of the national COM
munity".
May l point out, Sir, that the
NAACP is not now and has never
appeared on the United States
Attorney General or FBI lists of
subversive organizations The MA
ACP has never advocated allie
glance to any but the American
Flag. The NAACP has never de-
nounced the Supreme Court or
any court for that matter. 1t has
never advocated defiance of law
and order.
The NAACP has never sought
to oeny to any group rights and
privileges which it sought for
another group.
The NAACP has worked and
continues to work for democratic
guarantees, through democratic
