that occurred in today's hand.

lem without going to the med

West led the king Of spades
and East overlook with the ace.
East returned a spade to the
nine and West then led the
queen of spades. East discarded
a low club and South ruffed
with a low heart.
Declarer drew three rounds
Of trumps and tried the dia-
mond finesse, losing to the king.
South then spread his hand
and claimed the rest of the
tricks, scoring game and rubber.

The butler didn't do it. The
crime was committed by West,
who used perfume, and East,
who smoked cigars. The pair
had to cooperate to commit the
crime.
There was nothing wrong with
the first two tricks. At the
third trick West should have
led the four Of spades instead
of the queen, compelling East
to ruff. Even when West
started on a life of crime by
leading the queen of spades,
East should have saved her by
ruffing anyway. And, of course,
East should have ruffed with
the Jack of hearts.

Price of Democracy
OF course, Democracy and

the uncertainty of progress. It
is a slow and tedious struggle.
It is much more uncertain since
we have become SO dependent
upon international conditions.

find nothing of value on the
moon. But. if we find quaint
ties Of gold, or diamonds. or
some new elements, it could re-
suit in a great new boom in
this country like the gold rush

happen today when we are a

Russian Bear Capable

Marx set out In the Communist
Manifesto the proposition that
Communist aims "can be at
tanned only by the forcible over
throw of all existing social con
ditions.''
Lenin overthrow the social or
der in Russia by revolution.
Stain overthrow the social or
DIRE of Russia's neighbors by a
combination Of internal subver-
sion and external pressure.
Khrushchev currently is tell
ling the world that the capitalist
order will be overthrow by
peaceful competition in the eco
nomic arena.
But this change in language
and in apparent attitude is due,
not to any change of heart on
the part Of the Communists. but
to the quite obvious military
strength Of the West. From the
inception Of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization until this
very moment, the Soviet Union
has refused to tangle in open
| conflict with the armed forces
of the West.
Neither Knrushchev nor the
Russian Communists for whom
he speaks are in any great
hurry. They genuinely believe
that time is on their side. and
that Communist control Of the
world can be established bit by
bit, as capitalist countries die or
the vine or are intimidated into
joining the Communist bloc.
For the I'm emit, then
Khrushchev and Company are
perfectly willing to hull the West

existence
It is reasonable enough that
the membership of the United
Nations should seek a neutral
for secretary-general in order to
avoid upsetting the precarious
balance Of power between East
and West in world affairs.
But if this particular neutral
is so naive as to buy the Rus
sian line on peaceful compe-
tition. then the Western world
must be exceptionally alert to
protect its interests.
Bitter experience since the
end Of World War II has taught
the West and it should have
taught the nonaligned nations as
wen-that peace" and peace
full coexistence" have different
meanings within the two armed
camps which NINA e
the world.
The dedicated Communist -
and there is no doubt as to
Khrushchev's credentials in that
department sees peace" as
that state of nonbelligerency in
which Communism has been &C
cepted.
Peaceful coexistence is that
condition in which the Colnmun-
lists pursue their goal of world
domination by means OTHER
than armed conflict. It means
no lessening of other "cold war
tensions, nor any moderation Of
the propaganda, economic. po-
ltical, commercial, or o h e I
pressures which the Soviets ha-
bitually use as weapons.
U. Thant talks rubbish when
he says, "Khrushchev belongs
to a different category Of lead
ers. with a coherent philosophy
of the world based on the thesis
not of the inevitability of war,
but of the imperative of COM
petitive coexistence."
KhruShchev is the logical and
lineal successor to Marx, Lenin
and Stain. When Khrushchev's
tactics seem to vary from those
Of his predecessors, we can de-
pend upon it that there is a
valid reason for the change, and
that the long-range Communist
goal is unchanged
U. Thant is probably correct
when he says that Khrushchev
does not want war. But why
should Khrushchev want war,
when he can achieve his goals
by means short of war? And
those goals never have been
abandoned from the time when

mas maiings to the last min
ute"
He offered these good sugges-
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1962-12-11

can change it by amendment.
Yet today we observe, for example,
President of the United States issuing
executive orders in which he proclaims
new laws, including some which Con-
gress has specifically refused to pass.
We see Presidents employing federal
troops whenever it is believed that Mio-
lence may ensue in any State, even
though States and cities alone are spe-
officially given the right and obligation
to exercise police power, except in cases
of instruction"
But since when may every internal
disorder" be called an "insurrection"?
A President could become a military
dictator overnight and disregard all
local governmental authority by call
ing every case of disorder an "insurrec-
tion.''
WHEN THE ORIGINAL CONSTI-
TUITION was being drafted, fears of
usurpation were openly expressed.
Alexander Hamilton, writing in THE
Federalist" in 1888, summed up the
views of those who felt the ultimate de-
cision should be vested in whole or in
part in the legislative body, instead of
in court. He was opposed to this pro-
cedure, but the contention of his critics
now has proved to be singularly pro-
phetic. He wrote:
"The arguments, or rather sugges-
tons, upon which this charge is found
ed, are to this effect: The authority of
the proposed Supreme Court of the
United States, which is to be separate
and independent body, will be superior
to that of the Legislature. The power
of constituting the laws, according to the
spirit of the Constitution, will enable
the Court to mould them into whatever
shape it may think proper; especially
as its decisions will not be in any man
ner subject to the revision or correction
of the legislative body. This is as I'M
precedented as it is dangerous =.
''In the first place, there is not
syllable in the plan under consideration
which directly empowers the national
courts to construe the laws according
to the spirit of the Constitution"
But the Constitution today is being
downgraded on the very ground that
the spirit rather than the letter, of
the document should be followed.
The cult of liberals" in our Coun-
try justifies it's interpretations as in
keeping with the spirit of the Con-
stitution. This is the doctrine of
Machiavelli-that "the end justifies the
means"
If we are to have an unwritten Con-
stitution, by all means let's give the
peoples representatives in Congress the
power and responsibility of rewriting
the fundamental law.
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1962-12-11

Of nothing"

into state of weakness. then
it will learn the true strength,
and utter ruthlessness, of the
Communist East.
