Opening lead: Trey of hearts
West opened the three of
hearts, and East played the
queen. Should South win the
first trick?
II South considered only the
hearts he would surely win the
first trick. This gives him, one
heart trick with the chance of
getting another later. To refuse
the first heart is to settle fol
only one heart trick.
Now let's consider the hand
as a whole.
If South wins the first heart
and tackles the diamonds Gas
he should, East will win the
king Of diamonds and return
a heart. West will then win
four heart tricks, defeating the
contract.
HOld-Up Is Best
II South refuses the first
heart trick, holding up his
king. he will surely make the
contract. East returns a heart,
and West can take the ace.
South can later take the dia-
mond f1nesse in safety, for East
will be unable to lead a heart
and the dangerous suit will be
shut out.
Declarer gets only one heart
trick, but he is sure of three
spades, three diamonds and
two clubs. These are enough to
assure the contract.
Would South be in danger
If East had three hearts in
stead Of only two? Not at all.
The defenders could then get
three heart tricks and one dia-
mond; South would still make
his contract.

Rank OstentatiOn

Rank OstentatiOn
But, on the part of anyone
except royalty and, perhaps,
a handful of noble Dukes, to
bring four was rank osten-
tation,
There was plenty of room,
of course. but it just wasn't
done. Even in The great old
days of the week end that be-
gan on Friday and lasted I'M
til the following Tuesday.
Up to the beginning of
World War II, the English
week end was the epitome, of
graciouS-though not always
completely comfortable-liv-
ing.
The guests came in num-
berS from eight to twenty, &C
companied by servants who
looked after The clothes and
tonSorial needs and saw after
their baths.
The visiting servants-at
least in the great country
houSes-didn't fetch the wa
ter for the baths. But they
supervised the preparations.
This was very important.
Some wanted the bath tenn
peratllre at 81 degrees. Others
wanted it at IS.
The vast houses had staff
watermen who hauled the
water from wells to the
rooms. And there were resi-
dent fuelmen who lugged in
the fuel for the fires.
There was no central heat
ing and very few bathrooms.
Some of them don't have
them today.)
So, hip baths were brought
out and installed before roar
ing fires and a guest could
enjoy his bath after riding
and before dinner.
Army of Servants
Below stairs, labored a
small army of servants. SUI
pervised by an imperious
head butler. There were
footmen and Wallets and
cooks. And chamber maids,
kitchen maids, stillroom
maids and in-between maids
known as "tweenies."
With high income tax and
super tax, nearly all this
lavish week end entertaining
has misrepresentation not en-
tirely.
Even II there was money
enough to finance it, domes-
tic servants are no longer
plentiful in Britain.
Young men and women
who used to "go into serv-
ice" have gone into the fac
tories for higher wages and
a greatly reduced work week.
Yet, a hard, rich core of
hosts continue to entertain IN
their country homes on week
ends.
Very few of the guests
bring servants and the stats
of the big houses are greatly
reduced, but many in 1859
possess the head butler, a
chef, two or three gardeners,
a chauffeur and maids.

Strike Costs
Are Heavy and
Far Reaching

CLEVELAND, Nov. 9 (AP)
Costs of the nationwide steel
strike, which started July IS,
have mounted to $3,493, 000,-
900 in lost sales for the steel
companies, $1,172,5 100000 in
lost wages to the steelworkers
and $755 million in tax losses
for the Federal government,
Steel Magazine said yesterday.
Lost production has climbed
to 1864, 900 ingot tons.
The magazine said that brisk
consumers demand kept third
quarter profits of most metal
working firms ahead of the
1858 pace, but that business
fell below the second quarter
level because of seasonal in
fluences, labor strife and some
steel shortages in the quarter
Short steel supplies resulting
in curtailed operations make
the fourth quarter outlook far
from promising, it added.
Steel said automobile pro-
duction will be cut drastically
in Novembmer, with manufac-
turing figuring they will pro-
duce only 278,000 cars this
month. This is less than half
of the intended production and
As per cent less than the out
put in October.
Last weeks steel production
totaled about $4,000 ingot tons
as operations climbed o. point
above the previous weeks re-
vised rate to 1875 per cent Of
capacity, the magazine said.
Steel's price composite on
No. l heavy melting grade Of
scrap advanced one dollar a
gross ton to $45.33 after hold
ing unchanged for three
straight weeks. The publica-
ton said a continued upward
trend in prices is probable as
the steel mills draw more heav-
lily on scrap.
