SENATE EMBROILED IN WARM ARGUMENT "ON FARMERS STRIKE Error in Count Results in De- claration That Measure Had Been Defeated Consideration of a measure to legal- ize farm strikes and to authorize the governor to use the militia to protect strikers plunged the North Dakota senate into the most heated debate of the session Wednesday and ended with the bill declared defeated, but with a majority of votes actually cast in its favor. The assembly Wednesday will seek to unravel a parliamentary tangle re- sulting from the erroneous announce- ment of the vote, which was 25 to 24 in favor of passage of the bill. In the eonfusion following the roll call, a tally was handed the presiding offi- cer, Lieut. Gov. Ole H. Olson, revers- ing the figures so that it read 25 against and 24 in favor of the bill. ‘The error ‘abd discovered as sena- tors began to leave the senate after nearly two hours of debate, and it ‘was decided to take up the matter when the assembly convenes Wednes- Sen. W. E. Martin, Morton county, 4s author of the bill which empowers “any farm organization within the state with a state-wide membership” to issue a strike order on marketing of agricultural products when “the market price at the time is only a fraction of the cost of production.” ‘The governor “shall be empowered to ‘use such units of the state militia ‘as he shall think necessary to estab- Ush order,” the bill provides, in the event riots result. Argue Over Militia Debate centered on a motion by Sen. J.P, Cain, Stark county, to strike out the provision to empower the gover- nor to use the militia, The amend- ment was defeated 26 to 23. Immedi- ately after the vote on the Cain mo- tion a roll call was taken on final passage and the 25 to 24 vote in fav- or of the bill resulted, with the er- roneous announcement causing it to be declared defeated. On an inquiry from Sen. W. H. Porter, Cavalier county, as to the “necessity of the bill,” Sen. Martin arose to explain that “the reason I introduced it was because I watched a strike in Iowa where they sent out sluggers to stop farmers from strik- “You will find scabbers even ‘among farmers,” he said, “and we need this ion, The farm organiza- tions are filling thick and fast and when the year rolls around every will belong to the Farmers association.

McKENNEY Secretary, American Bridge League There is no question but that the opportunity to make an unusually nice play is usually in favor of the declarer. He knows the outstanding high cards against him. He can give his opponents an opportunity to make a mistake, or, by carefully watching the drop of the cards, he may be able to execute any of the numerous plays, squeezes and so forth. However, the real thrill and satis- faction of a well-played hand comes with a brilliant defensive play. To- Gay's hand contains a clever defen- sive play, but even then, there is an opportunity for the declarer to make his contract. 4Q-10-7-5.3 96-4 @A-3 9-7-1 10-8-5 | Dealer ; * Tether |] HK AA @J-10-8-7 A-Q-J South, the dealer, opens the con- tracting in the one over one system Claim Hat Identifies Ex-Convict in Holdup Kansas City, Feb. 1—(}—A hat purchased at Fargo, N. D., caused po- lice to seek Earl Doyle, 32-year-old ex-convict, as one of the four men that robbed Mrs. Dorotha Jolly, North Kansas City bank messenger, of $14,- 500 Saturday. Detective Chief Thomas J. Higgins said the identity of Doyle as one of the robbers: who escaped after shoot- ing down Edgar Nall, North Kansas City marshal, disarming a posse at Holt, Mo., and kidnaping two officers at Knoxville, Iowa, had been defin- itely established. SAY WEARER OF HAT WAS FARGO GAMBLER Fargo, Feb. 1—(#)—Earl Doyle was well known in Fargo gambling circles, having come here from 8t. Paul a year ago. He ran a poker game until spring, then presumably re- turned to the Twin Cities. He was pleasant and soft-spoken and had a southern drawl. Wardens Are Named At Church Meeting 'T. R.

Sen. D. H.

Concrete Work on Capitol Held Up Though cold weather has held up concrete work on North Dakota's new capitol building for the last week, steel work on the western or legis- lative wing of the building is pro- gressing rapidly, according to John Davis, superintendent of construction for the Lundoff-Bicknell company. Laying of floors on the 18th and roof floors of the tower part of the structure is all that remains of the concrete work, Davis said. Weather has permitted but one day of concrete work in the last week. Concrete workers were idle today. ‘The contractors hope to complete the steel and concrete work this month to permit beginning of stone work early in March.

West passes and North should take out with two spades, which should be passed by East. South should bid two no trump— he should not jump to three no trump, as North may be taking out with a very weak five-card suit and no incard. Remember that an original no trump bid shows a very fine hand. Partner, however, always has a right to take out with a weak five-card suit. The bid of two no trump shows a desire to go on with the hand if partner holds anything. Now, as North holds a five-card sult and @ side ace, he should re- spond with three spades. South would then go He} three no trump. West's proper opening lead is the ten of hearts, which is a favorable break for the declarer, as it is right into his tenace holding; but even though a lead like this may work out to a disadvantage at times, your best blind attack against a no trump con- tract is to open your longest ana strongest suit, especially if you have @ possible incard, which West has with a queen of diamonds. The declarer, winning with the heart jack, would immediately lead his jack of spades. East should re- fuse to win the first trick. Declarer will continue with a small spade, which East should win with the king. East realizes, with West's nine drop- ping, that the spade suit is going to be set on the next round, but the only incard the declarer has in dummy is the ace of diamonds, so here is tye opportunity for the very fine defensive play. East should immediately return the king of diamonds—even though it ap- pears to sacrifice a sure winner in his hand, it is killing two tricks for the declarer. Of course the declarer may just as well win the trick in the dummy with the ace, because if he does not Fast will continue with a small dia- mond. ‘The spade suit must be abandoned and a small club should be led from the dummy, declarer finessing the jack. His next play is the jack of diamonds, which West wins with the jucen. West returns a heart and the de- clarer wins with the ace. The de- clarer has lost two tricks, he is sure %0 lose two more—and possibly three. However, he has an opportunity to execute an end play: He must first pull the possible exit card out of East's hand by leading the king of bearts, which takes East's seven. The spade suit should now be led by the declarer and East will win with the ace. East is now forced to lead elther a diamond through the declarer’s 10-8 or a club through his| = A-Q. In either case the declarer is bound to make the last three tricks, and while East has made a very fine | defensive play with the king of dia- monds, the declarer, with the aid of an end play, has succeeded in making is contract of three no trump.
