Beck, Pennsyl- vania, Considered | | ‘Washington, April 16.—)—Speak- | ership of the house—considered by many the second highest elective office—will be an absorbing subject in the finely-bal- anced 72nd con- gress. Before the death of Nicho- las Longworth it was primarily a question of which N. GARNER of possible aspirants to wear the speaker's mantle. Among the Democrats the peppery, hard-hitting Jack Garner of Texas, leader of his party in the house, stands out pre-eminently. It is gen- erally conceded that should the Dem- ccrats organize in the forthcoming congress he is the most likely man for the post. In the Republican ranks, however, the question of choice is more diffi- cult. A dozen or more men are men- tioned in discussions centering around | Longworth’s successor. Prominent among them are Col. John Tilson of Connecticut, major- ity floor leader. Bertrand Snell of New York, chairman of the rules committee, is another. There are oth- ers, among them Purnell of Indiana of farm relief fame, Mapes of Michi- gan and Ramseyer of Iowa, the latter two recognized experts on house rules. Tilson and Snell, with the late Speaker Longworth, constituted an attpowerfal group. It was largely because of this trio, that the last house was referred to as one of the most efficient organizations in the of congress. Tilson, tall, with a closely-cropped mustache and.a ready smile, enjoys great personal popularity in the house. He was a lieutenant-colonel in the Spanish-American war, and commanded the second Connecticut on the Mexican border in 1916. An expert parliamentarian, he is admired and respected as Repub- lican leader. Snell is almost, an opposite type.

You have a five card diamond suit headed with the king queen, |and = side king. The two kings| trum would each count three points and the queen two points, which would give you a total of eight. In addition you have a five card suit headed’ with two of the top three honors—the king and queen— therefore you would add two more to your count of eight, giving you a grand total of 10 in support of your Partner's no trump bid. =e ® In yesterday's article we Icarned | that a different count is required in each position to make ani original bid of one no trump, but for the bidding of an original two no trump in any Position, the count is 17 with all four suits stopped. A suit is considered stopped when headed by an ace, by king . queen .. .,oF While the latter two are rather weak, centage of cases a suit is stopped when headed in this manner. Of course there are times when we will have a strong hand with only three suits stopped, therefore when a hand has three suits stopped and the fourth suit has at least three small cards or a doubleton with at least jJack‘and one small, two no trump can be bid originally, if the hand con- tains 8 count of 19. Remember that in the quantitative showing of tricks, it is necessary to give your partner at once a picture of your hand. Therefore if you were to bid one no trump first or second hand on either of the above. described hold- ings, your partner would pass with a count of eight. While in the major- ity of cases, when you hold 17 with four suits stopped, or 19 with three suits stopped, there is an easy game in no trump when your partner holds a count of even less than eight. You will jump partner's original bid of two no trump to three no ip: First—With a count of six. Secondly—With an ace and a side jack. or with a five card suit headed by an ace. Third—With one king and one queen. ‘The accuracy of this count in ar- riving at three no trump declarations is almost uncanny as the greater ma- jority of all hands will make three no trump when the combined count is 24. It is quite true that when part- ner opens with a minimum one no trump and you support with a mini- mum, making a combined count of 22, @ number of these hands will be defeated. It is not very often, how- ever, that two minimums are oppos- ite each other. Three No Trump Three no trump bids are rather scarce as they require all four suits | to be Roeper and a total of 21 in any The scarcity of three no tramp hands is due to the fact that when you have all four suits stopped and a total count of 21, you undoubt- edly have a better suit bid than no trump.

DISARMAMENT . ; By Cameron Underdaht, Glen Uliin: The problem of disarmament ‘is world-community, jealousy and race hatred must be done away with. But before any of this can be don, nations must reduce their navies until war ndertaking. Previous to 1914 when all the na- tions of the world, especially the Zu- ropean nations, were arming them- selves, England’s navy was rivaied by that of Germany which desired ‘to surpass the former. ‘The treaty of Versailles, which was the firsi great step toward nt, reduced the German navy to almost nothing. That navy being eliminated, the Eng- lish had only one challenger which was America. During and immedi- ately following the war the United “lident Harding invited States had increased its naval power, being stopped only once by its en- trance into the ence of 1927, the Kellogg Pact, and the Hoover-McDonald discussions. The world had hardly gotten over the shock of the late war before Pres~ Italy, Japan, China,* The Portugal, and Belgium to a “Conference on the Limitation of Armaments.” President Harding's France, “=| main purpose for calling this meeting was to settle the Chinese trade ques- tion and to stop the feverish building of battleships between Japan, Eng- land, and the United States. On July 8, 1921, delegates from all of the countries invited assembled at ‘Washington. After President Hard- ing’s address of ‘welcome, Secretary of State Hughes stated the problems to be settled and the American plan. After -a . month’s-. negotiation, an agreement was reached by which all countries were to have equal trade rights with China and the building of battleships was to be stopped with certain reductions in the Jarger navies, The greatest defect of this treaty was that it did not limit build- ing of auxiliaries. ‘The next great step of disarmament taken by the United States was the Geneva conference. Delegates ‘from Japan, England, and the United States met. there on June 20, 1927, France and Italy declining the invi- tation. ‘Therefore, it became a three- power conference. Nothing came of this meeting due to the fact that all the delegates were over-cautious be- cause France and Italy declined the invitation and because the members England, | ing London Conference, which was of of the conference had formed their Opinions before they came which they would not change. America’s third contribution came in 1928, being known as the Briand- pried Treaty or the Kellogg Peace between. contribution was the Hoover-McDon- ald discussion. Although no treaties were made, discussions smoothed the way for the forthcom- the nations at the conference did not wish to lose any of their ships or auxiliaries. . ‘The United States has taken no Wou: can’t Wagner Returns from _ Optometrist Meeting Dr. H.
