OUTLINES PLAN FOR OBTAINING FEDERAL HELP ON N.D. JOBS Says Government Will Assist in Tree-Planting or Dam Construction Bottineau, N. Dak. May 8—(P)— Whether or not North Dakota will share in the federal program of re- forestation, counties, municipalities, clubs or other organizations may do ‘work similar to that proposed for the conservation corps, such as dam building and tree planting. This work can be done with federal relief funds through cooperation of the state emergency relief committee, the state engineer and the state for- ester. it was announced here Saturday by Francis E. Cobb, state forester and president of the North Dakota schoo! ‘f forestry located here. The procedure announced by Cobb follows: ‘The county, city, or other organiza- tion must decide what dams it wishes to build or what areas it wishes to plant trees on. In regard to building dams, the organizations should get in touch with R. E. Kennedy, Bismarck. state engineer; on tree planting proj- ects, Cobb should be contacted. ‘These officials will determine the number of men required to do the proposed work and will request the state emergency relief committee to have men assigned to the work by lo- cal relief boards. Instead of cash being paid to the workers, they will be given orders on the relief committee for subsistance and clothing only. If trees are to be planted, says Cobb, the county or sponsoring or- ganization must purchase the trees and be responsible for transporting them to the planting site. Arrangg: ments also must be made for lodging the workers while on the job. The state forester will provide a supervisor - for tree-planting work wherever a suf- ficlent number of trees warranting such supervision is to be planted. “The state forester,” says Cobb “has obtained fair prices for large quantities of tree stock from commer- cial nurseries in the state, so expense ‘will not be prohibitive. Any county or organization wishing to undertake such a tree-planting project as outlin- ed, should write at once to Cobb.” Immediate action is necessary if the work is to be done this year, as trees may be planted successfully only within the next two or three weeks, he said. , $$ $$$ $$ o> f Weather Report i eee FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Show- ers tonight and. possibly Tuesday carers: morning; not OA xh change in temperature.

As there were then no sources of precious metal within the Colonies, the people leaned naturally toward paper money, which is just as good as any other kind, provided there is not too much of it.

East can now show heart sup- } port and a void in diamonds by mak- ing a bid of four diamonds. This is all the information that West needs and he goes to six hearts. The Play It is North's opening lead. The old auction book would say “lead the top ;of your partner’s/suit” and if you did that with this hand the declarer could easily make his contract. Why not analyze the hand in the follow- bid would be satisfactory, but after jing manner? You cannot lead hearts—that is trump, and to lead trump is allow- ing the declarer to bid six and eall his lead. You cannot lead diamonds because East has definitely showed that he is void in dianfonds with his cue bid in diamonds. That sifts it down to a club or @ spade lead. Spades is the only unbid ‘suit and you can rest assured that the Generally a negative double asks Geclarer, before bidding for his slam, took into consideration the fact that &7-6-5 jhis opponent was most likely to open the only unbid suit—therefore I would {definitely say that the declarer is pre- pared for a spade opening. However, there is a possibility that South may have a spade trick, but that is not going to be enough to de- feat the small slam contract. East has shown clubs, therefore your best attack is to lead through dummy’s strength, hoping to set up & club for your partner and then, if he can get in with a spade, he can cash the club trick. As you see, the nine |of clubs is the only opening that will defeat the contract. ‘The declarer is now bound to lose a club and a spade. If a spade were opened the declarer could set up & long spade in dummy on which to discard the losing club. You will find the game much more interesting if you will analyze a hand thoroughly before making your open- ing lead.
