They were equally in accord in testifying that no curb had been Dlaced unon ordinary credit, and that the fall in bank loans followed ths drop in commodity prices rather than preceding it. The witnesses were also In agreement In believing that a great cause of the depression had been the erection of tariff carriers to trade among the big importing nations of the world. Carniet Iaereas Carreer y. Th chartered banks ot Canada cannot Increase the amount ot currency In circulation in the country, the committee was told tonight by Mr, Patterson, general manager of the Bank ot Nova Scotia. The Federal Government, through a variety ot mean, was the main source for Increasing currency.

S. N. Logan told the committee one of the reasons tor the Intensity ot the depression In Canada was the high tariffs and trade restrictions throughout th world. Harking back to pre-depression days, Mr. Logan said the banks sounded futile warnings as early as 1927 against wild speculation.

The warnings were not heeded, due to th mob hysteria of that day and th belief prosperity was unlimited. Sometimes the warnings were resented. Since 1(29, bank loans; In Canada dropped several hundred million dollars, continued Mr. Logan but he denied this was due to forced liquidation by the banks. Ther had been, no concerted action by the banks to force deflation.

One ot the reasons for the drop in loans was repayment ot brokerage loans, estimated at 1100.000.000. The general drop in. commodity prices had the effect of decreasing bank loans, said Mr, Logan. Tor instance, to carry Canada's wheat crop in IKS. due to Its high price, added (bout to th total loans for that year while th 1933 total was only 981,000,000, "Ne new loans that are reason-' ably safe have been refused by Canadian' banks, said Mr.

OJ'J- th genwMoye won th trick with th Ace of Contract Bridae which add to He ver-increasing popularity is th fact that both In th bidding and play there are numerous opportunities for 'precise reasoning and th drawing of th moat deli-oat and accurate inferences. Inferences, of course, are of two kinds the positive inference based upon what partner and opponents ssy, and the negative Inference based upon wrist partner or opponents fail to say.

The hand below, which was Played by Mr. Alphonse Moyss. Jr, in a team -of-four match recently, is a case in which He drew such an accurate Inference from a psss by one of his opponents, thst the opposing players for a moment thought that someone had tipped him off aa to the distribution. Of course, nothing could be further from the fscts. Mr.

Moyse's play was based entirely upon the draw ing of an accurate inference from the failure ot an opponent to bid. The hand was: East, Dealer. East and West vulnerable. 1KII. 19 QJ iQl Tit a iii i i KQJIT A It 1 10 nsiil 9I4 a 10 9 Tha Wddlag: 1 (Figaros after aids refer to mambered explanatory paragraphs.)

West should pass. The hand is too week to even make a bid of two hearts, and the bid ot notrump is manifestly unthinkable. North has a very fine hand. The aaeoul Double la obviously correct. South hss no four-card or longer suit except the suit bid by his opponent.

Inasmuch as he holds a stopper, one no-trump Is no doubt the best bid. 4 Perhaps a somewhat strong bid in view of the distribution, but North and South knew that their team score was bad and needed some unusual result to bolster It up. Hence North decided to conceal his club suit and hoped that the club King either was held tjy Mr. Moyse or could be captured on a finesse. West's, Opening lead was the heart J.

tered and cleared eomnared a 30 as there was no purpose whatever in holding up with hut rags. Obviously, East, vulnerable. who had opened the bidding, had entcy cards in other suits and could not be shut out in any event. In addition, there was a real danger of a shift to the very weakly protected diamonds. Having won the first trick Mr.

Moyse saw, of course, that if he could capture the club King his 1 contract waa assured, as the heart trick together with the Ac and King of spsdes and six club tricks totalled nine. I Hoping for but really not expect- I ing a cover, he led the club Ten, and naturally West played low, I whereupon Mr. Moyse went into a long huddle with himself, Anally emerging with th cornet solution. west, he reasoned, held four hearts. He could not in addition to holding four hearts have also the King of dubs, as otherwise he would have made some response to his partner's vulnerable Opening bid.

Therefore the club King must be with East and If that was true there was not a thing to gain by a finesse. The one chance of running the club suit was to And the King a singleton with East Scarcely hoping for any such good fortune, Mr. Moyse played the Ace. and when the King dropped, the opponents felt that, the play bordered on the miraculous. Obviously there Is no method of knowing thst the King is a singleton, though North's unbalanced distribution suggests a similar lack of balance in other hands, but whether the King is a singleton or not, the line of plsy adopted by Mr, Moyse Is absolutely correct and based entirely upon a correct decision as to West's lack of honor strength.

If East held the club King guarded, from the stand point of South it would be lust too bad. The card was clearly marked In the East hand. If it was un guarded, the contract could be made: otherwise the fln could accomplish no good purpose. TOMORROWS HAND. South.
