If you are shopping for suits today, be sure to visit this department and see this smart collection. Most American meals place their emphasis on the meat course. Culbertson On Contract By ELY Cl'LBERTSON World's Champion Plaver and Greatest Card Analyst ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS.

South was able to fulfill a very dangerous three notrump contract on the hand below by brilliantly dropping a doublcton Queen. He was able to do so because he knew his right hand opponent and knew that player in all probability needed that Queen to make his opening bid a sound one. The play of the entire hand and the reasoning which led South to make his accurate diagnosis is recounted below. East, Dealer Neither side vulnerable A 19 7 7 4 0 5 Jf, 9 6 1 2 8 2 A 10 3 10 4 4 8 6 3 jw AAQM i H' 9 6 3 2 10 4k 9 5 3 9 KS 85 A 7 A 7 The bidding: East South West North 10(1) Ebl. IV 2 Pass 2NT(2) Pass 3.NT(3) Pass Pass Pass 1 A shaded opening bid according to most standards.

East used a point count to decide upon his opening bid and rigidly adhered to this point count. Seemingly it added up to enough, but it was this very point count which later caused South's undoing. 2 Slightly optimistic but justifiable in view of North's free bid. 3 An overbid. North, having bid two clubs freely, should have made the semi-sign-off bid of three clubs, giving partner the option of passing without definite additional values.

West opened the ten, which was properly covered by dummy's Queen, and East's King was topped by declarer's Ace. South stopped and took stock. lie had six possible club tricks if the Queen could be picked up. two certain tricks in diamonds and a potential ninth trick in either spades, hearts or diamonds. South was still not certain whether East's opening bid was legitimate or psychic.

To temporize and pick up a ninth trick, South at trick 2 led out a low heart up to dummy's seven. He knew there was no combination of cards with which the opponents could run more than three tricks in that suit immediately, with his own holding of four to the King-nine-eight. West, using caution, won the low heart lead with the ten and continued with another diamond. This lead gave declarer a third trick in that suit. South decided to postpone playing clubs until he found out a little more about the situation.

He consequently laid down the nine of hearts. "West played the Jack fa high card wasted but costing nothing) and East was forced to overtake with the Queen. East then cleared the diamond suit. At this point the declarer was reasonably certain East's opening bid was legitimate. That player had a sure entry card ir the spade Ace.

South therefore knew he could not afford to try to set up another heart but had to take six club tricks immediately. He played the Ace. on which East droDoed the ten, and then continued with low club. South went into a lonsr huddle. He remembered that East had shown up with only a five-card diamond suit headed by the Kins-nine.

East 'also was marked with Queen high in hearts and in ail probability had the Ace and Queen of spades and possibly the Jack. These cards alone would not have given East an opening bid according to that rigid player's point requirements. South knew the point count on which East woodenlv judged his opening bids, and certain an additional Quern was needed to make the opening bid sound. That Queen had to be in the club suit and South decided it would be ridiculous to fmrsse the Jack of clubs even though he knew East would have dropped the ten just to deceive him with the ten and one club. The club King was played from dummy, and when the Queen dropped, South claimed three-odd.

Mr. Culbertson will be very glad to answer questions on Please enclose a stamped i3-cent. self -addressed envelope and address your question to Ely Culbertson, in care of this newspaper. DIMMER at is is to be especially well cocked and t-tractively served.

AP.) Mrs.

Franklin D. Roosevelt gave it as her view today that the life of a public official's wife was "far from being always a bed ot roses." She unfolded to a radio audience these two fundamental rules for the families of public men: "They must make up their minds that they must enjoy what comes to them; they can not go out and chooie what they will chjoy. "They must learn to plan their lives in a way winch will give them some personal satisfaction and yet at all times do the thing3 which their positions require." Her talk came at the close of a day when she had talked to a better housing conference which was said to number "more presidents of women's organizations than ever gathered before in one place;" and had entertained about 700 women Democrats at tea. Mrs. Roosevelt related some of her personal experiences while her husband was a state legislator at Albany.

During an Assembly fight, she said some 30 of her husband's col leagues would come trooping into tne iamily library at all hours of the day. "When it was getting late," she said, "I would go and get beer, and cheese and crackers from the pantry and make one of the men help me with the trays, and that would be the signal for them finally to break up and go home. "This lasted for many weeks, and the smoke permeated the room above which happened to be the two older children's nursery, so that I had to hurriedly move the children to a room on the third floor." 47 Pupils Taken Into Honor Society Chapter at HPIIS Forty-seven pupils of the Hartford Public High School, chosen for membership in the Smiley Chapter Of the National Hminr Kvitu Thursday morning, were announced py rnncipai Clement C.

LaBatt of Arlington. are spending the week-end with Miss retarded recovery or have stimulat ed some of it in ways that a.re arti ficial and cannot be permanently outlined. We know a little more than we knew two years ago but not enough to pronounce absolute judgments or to prophesy confidently.

The right course is not self-evident. We are in the midst of a tremendous national effort to overcome the greatest of all industrial crises in a deeply disordered d. And whether or not we like Franklin Roosevelt or dislike him, he is the President of the United States and there is no one else to whom this country can now turn for leadership. He is entitled to the benefit of the doubt. He is entitled to an honest and careful study cf the facts.

He is entitled, not to the sycophant's adulation, but to support when it can honestly be given and to sympathetic criticism when men differ with him. He is entitled to be judged not merely by the silly promises of his overzcalous adherents, not merely by his own unguarded political generalizations, but by the depth, the severity, and the extent of the crises that he inherited, by the performances of other men in other lands, by the ability of his critics to say what they would do were they charged with his awful responsibility. Those who have read this column know how often and how radically it has disagreed with some of the major policies and much of the strategy of the New Deal. If the New Deal is the whole collection or measures hastily enacted in 1933 and 1934, I am not a New Dealer. But I do wish the President of the United States to succeed in what I take to be his effort to preserve the essentials of a free social order in the midst of a world-wide upheaval.

I hope he will and I believe he can, and that whether he does or not depends only in part on and to a very great degree upon the character of the support that the people give him and the quality of the criticism to which he is subjected. What happens in the great game of politics in 1936 is too far off to seem vitally important at this moment. Two years must elapse before someone more acceptable to Mr. Kent can occupy the White House, and in those two years we can either emerge from the crisis or be plunged into a catastrophe involving the whole western world. That is the yardstick by which I measure my own criticism.

It seems to me important that Americans should pass through those two years with courage and confidence in their institutions" and trust in the nation's strength. If they are to do that, they must not destroy the only man who can be President during those two years, and they must not seek to paralyze the government by confusing the duty of criticism with irreconcilable enmity and partisanship, and in the midst of the battle they must not believe they are beaten. They must, on the contrary, contribute what they can both by way of criticism and support to the man who must continue to lead the American nation through one of the most dangerous periods of its existence.

Watch for Special THE NEWELL NURSERIES Perk Blmfeld Tel. 6-6608 Ai a time when the affairs of the world are rather unusually complicated there is one man at least who is affected by no doubts whatever. That man is Mr.

Frank Kent, who informs his readers that the President is a complete failure, that his experiments "without exception" are "soggy and sick," that "the problems he promised to solve have been aggrevated, not ameliorated." This sweeping judgment naturally calls for some proof since the weight of evidence shows unmistakably that there has been a substantial recovery. Mr. Kent has selected what he calls "the only yardstick" to prove his case. It is the size of the relief roll. "The one test of the success of the Roosevelt policies," he insists, "is the size of the relief roll." This is, he says, "the acid test, and by that test he has failed." There is, he announces, "no other yard-atitk that can lj ued." What he should have said is that there is no other yardstick he can use to prove that everything with- jout exception is a failure, The increased size of the relief i roll might, and probably docs, in dicate a number of different things, and unless these things are taken into account it is no yardstick at ail for anyone who is looking for the truth.

Some of the increase may be, and almost certainly is, due to the exhaustion of savings by those who have remained unemployed for a long time, and the unwillingness or inability of relatives, friends and private charity to support them. Thus it is perfectly possible to have more people at work and at the same time nave more persons on relief. If, for example, John Smith and Tom Brown were both unem ployed in 1933 and living on their savings or with relatives, it is pos sible for John Smith to be back at work in 1935 and for Tom Brown to have used up his savings" or the assistance of friends and be on re lief. There would thus be a gam both in employment and In the size of the relief roll. There is every reason to think that this is a part of the explanation of the paradox of increased employment along with increased relief.

It is certainly only part of the explanation. Another part of the explanation must be the demoraliz-iim character of the existing lelief system, under which, for a consid erablc number, the incentive to work is inhibited by the fact that a subsistence dole can be had for no work, or for two or three days' work a week. Undoubtedly the relief rolls are swollen by men who prefer the dole or a few days' work a month to private jobs requiring much longer hours and not yielding a very much greater income. There is one other factor to be taken into account. A great many persons are today on relief who two vears ago were starving and home less.

Hie fact they are now on relief increases the size of the relief rolls. But what they add to the relief rolls docs not show that the country is worse off. It shows that the destitute are better provided for and that the country is doing its duty by them. Until Mr. Kent has made the just discount for these factors for the exhaustion cf private and local relief, for the demoralization of the dole, which the new work relief is designed to end.

and for the better care of the destitute, he ought not to use the gross figures as "the one test and the only test of the success of the Roosevelt policies." The relief roles are not a good yardstick to measure the progress of recovery. The relief figures are what they are because there is less employment and less national income than two years ago, but because those still "unemployed are poorer, because some of the unemployed are demoralized, because there is some graft, because there is a greater sense of responsibility, because there is a diminished sense of private responsibility. That the size of the relief rolls is a great national problem is evident, so evident that the President has made it the object of his first message to Congress and of the principal measure" of this session. But to treat the grass figures as "the only yardstick" by which to measure the economic progress of the nation is a statistical and logical absurdity. There is no one and only lest.

There is no yardstick, and if Mr. Kent thinks he has the one yardstick to measure the prcgrcss of recovery, he has something which no economist, no statistician, no business man or statesman in the world has found. If such a yardstick existed, it would mean that the causes of the depression had been triumphantly analyzed. For only those things can be measured which have been clearly identified. The obvious fact is that this world depression is like a complicated disease which has never been successfully diagnosed, for which only partial and uncertain remedies are known, in which it is impossible to say ith assurance which of the many remedies applied are -producing particular results.

We know this country is better off than it was two years ago. We know that it is far from having achieved full recovery. We have reason to think that certain measures have either One Way Round Trip nrt rvrrv 2 nmirj Also 10 1 p. M. IMS A.
