Tae odds are in your favor. While South's hand contains five primary tricks, it should not be open- ed with a no trump, as there is no particular advantage in its being led up to. However, when North fills in the weak spot of the hand by bidding spades, South must force with two no trump. Rubber bridge—N, and S. vul. Opening lead—@ Q.

Recovery. Reform. The vast pattern of New Deal ef- fort is integrated around those aims. In each of innumerable new programs you will find one, two, or all three objectives. Relief has been provided to an un- dreamed-of degree—to unemployed workers, farmers, home owners, ‘sweatshop labor, banks, railroads, and even needy college students. Recovery partly has been achieved, though 10,000,000 persons remain un- employed. The depression was check- ed and industry regards steady im |provement as irievitable in the next few months. Roosevelt, entering his second year in the White House, is betting that the vast outlay of federal funds will give business ied mee big push. REFORM WELL LAUNCHED Reform has arrived on a hundred fronts. National planning is in only its infancy, but beginnings have been made and abuses have been corrected for the good of labor, A farmers, bank depositors, investors, and many other groups. To the wage earner, the comimon man, Roosevelt has promised “a bet- ter, more abundant life.” To business men he has promised “a more per- manently safe order of things.” Insisting on the right of every man to a job at fair earnings, he also aims at @ more equitable distribution of income, so that the hogging of profits | Welis county, received 25 votes.

Industry was sufter- ing from cut-throat, below cost com- Petition, declining prices, and dwind- ling demand. < Business men, admitting the mess they were in, were asking more gov- ernment supervision. NRA wasn’t originally a Roosevelt plan, though it gave him a vast grant of power over industry, made codes subject to his approval, and empow- ered him to bar corporations or in- dividuals from doing business if they persistently violated codes. i It grew from the Black 30-hour week bill and an industrial demand for relaxation of anti-trust laws. ak * ; FAIR COMPETITION SOUGHT The objective, in Roosevelt's words was “a great co-operative movement jthroughout all industry to obtain wide re-employment, pay a decent |Wage for a shorter work week, pre- jVent unfair competition and disas- | trous overproduction,” and “establish purchasing power to start the wheels of industry.” The codes were to substitute fair competition for free competition. Sub- mitted by industry, but subject to la- bor scrutiny before official approval, each must contain maximum hour and minimum wage provisions as well as stipulation that employes might ‘organize and bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing.” And codified industries were exempted from anti-trust laws. It was decided to get as many in- dustries as possible under codes as | objectives have been achieved only, partially. x“ * * JOHNSON DOES GOOD JOB Codif! pResegeeee ei ie Relief, Recovery, Reform Are|income shows an increase of $3,000,- New Deal Pattern Has Three Big Aims ———— Present rate, industrial worker -total 000,000 a year.

The board’s attempt to enforce the law has brought some bitter protests from industries which want to retain their controlled company unions in preference to labor unions. gigantic Meanwhile, Roosevelt's emergency spending program is - ing out $7,500,000,000 in this fiscal year and that money is credited with the burst of business activity which everyone hopes will continue under its own steam after federal expenses are curtailed. ane SPEND ON HUGE SCALE ‘The $3,300,000,000 public works pro- gram, written into the NIRA, was in itself the largest program of direct government spending in history. It was designed to “prime the pump” by putting millions of men to work— directly and indirectly—and stimu- late the sick construction and capital goods industries. Nearly $2,500,000,000 was allotted for federal projects, the rest to states. ‘The PWA administrator still has ap- Plication for 6400 state projects and would like at least $1,700,000,000 for next year, though Roosevelt has been talking about $500,000,000. PWA and FERA, the billion-dollar direct federal relief agency, were Sen- ‘fate progressive measures which Roose- velt integrated into his program. For relief director he chose able, . hard- boiled, sympathetic Harry Hopkins of New York. e* & CWA AIDS MILLIONS i CWA, boldest and most popular of ‘all relief-recovery agencies, was the brainchild of Hopkins and Ickes. It has kept 4,000,000 persons at work University Student Hon dollars a week. Roosevelt aims to end CWA by May, over the protests of tens of thou- sands of mayors and merchants. He is betting that public works, stimulat- ed industry and agriculture can ab- sorb the four million. be covered in @ subsequent article. ‘We are working toward a definit goal,” says Roosevelt, “which is to Prevent the return of conditions which came very close to destroying what we call modern civilisation.” Two Bank Employes .
