MILWAUKEE HAS BRIDGE CLASSES IN SCHOOLROOMS Teach People What They Like Is Theory of Founders By Arthur H. Rice United Press Staff Correspondent Milwaukee, Jan. 25—(U.R)—Time was when a sound ‘‘whaling’’ was doled out to the daring one who brought a deck of “Old Maids. Bunco, Euchre, or Flinch" to school in the pocket of his "jeans.’’ How times have changed! Every Monday anil Tuesday night at the Shorewood High School, one of Milwaukee’s suburban educational centers, 250 men and women gather for instruction in how to play cards. Where the “three It’s have reigned undisputed for ages, the voice of the teacher speaks in terms of con tact bridge, and its attendant phraseology. A lovely lady, garbed In the height of fashion and flashing ail engaging smile upon her pupils replaces what popular fancy placed at the head of the school room—the sinister old maid school teacher. Men ii'td women* {perhaps some whose childish laughter once echoed throughout the same school rooms, in years past, laugh and joke amid the lessons, unafraid that ’’teechur" may use the switch. Boys Still Tease Girls In this schoolroom the casual visitor observes attention, though a ntan is seen boyfully to tease tUe pretty woman in the seat ahead of him. Only a few years ago, one muses, this same mail loved to pull those blonde curls of the girl who sat in tlie same seat in front ol him. A chart, gay with the colored symbols of the bridge cards, hangs bn the wall. A pencil serves the teacher as a pointer. Anyone may ask her a question at any time and receive a cheefrul, tol rant answer. Tolerant, because many of the questions, coming from the lips of the city’s busiest executives, seem awkward and simple. "Now, we had tills lesson—pardon me this hand, last week. ‘‘l wdslt to see how many of you remember what it was bid," the young teacher began a lesson the other night. “How much does the hand count? The king, tlie ace, the queen is worth only a quarter of a trick tiecause it is only once guarded. Le: us go bn. There is one, two, three, three and one-half four and onequarter, five. six. Til- hand counts six. What does south say?" The class follows tile teacher's csson, droning each count after her and as she totals the count, bursts fourth as a four h grade class in addition, with the answer. Play After Study When the 1 cture is finished some ane’suggests: • "Is-t's play a hand.” Immediately there is hubbub ami laughter. Business mem lawyers, doctors, school teachers, and their wives and sweethearts shift chairs. Decks are dealt and the theory just taught is put into practice. The course lias brought twice as many women as men. according to Mrs. John (!. Osborne teacher. Limousines town cars and tlie small individual HUtomqbll - are drat.' u up before the school. Chauffeurs of the city’s rich sometimes wait two hours while their employers go to school again. The school’s course of bridge is sponsored by the Shorewood ippoi tuntty club and is in the opinion ot H. M. Genskow, head of the school, ilie only one of its kind to be given as a vocational study. “iWe lire giving it here," Gonskow said, "in tlie theory Unit education houhl include (lie training of people for the tilings they like to do.

FRENCH STATE TAX CUT; PARIS CITY LEVY UP Tardieu Reduces Many Items, But Gas and Subways Hiked By Samuel Dasliiell United Press S:aff Correspondent Paris, Jan. 25 —(UP) —Frenchmen In general have received a satisfying present from the Tardieu government in the way of general tax reductions, but the Pnrislens have been shown tlie opposite kind of treatment by tlie municipal council. While the gas rates and subway fares have been increased 4n Pitris, tie? government announced several considerations for tax payers. A reduction of the tax de lux*, the luxury tax on automobiles, the transpoit tax on cereals destined for bread, on fertilizer and potatoes have been announced. The tax on furnished apartments has Leon reduced, also the tax on exchange operations, and on the incomes of men with families. Taxes have been reduced on the transfer of house furnishings and furnished apartment buildings, also on unimproved real estate properties. Tlie tax on the turnover of wool sales was reduced,, also loans of the felonies, the various French depart meats. Hie communes and the Department of Posts and Telegrapn have been put in the non-taxab!e class. The land tax on cultivated fields also lias lieen reduced. And last lmt not least, the restaurant and hotel stamp tax on meals of less than 20 francs has been entirely suppressed. All these measures have been accepted by the government and should go in*o effect Immediately. I)RYS ARE BUSY IN WASHINGTON (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) The Williamson bill to transfer prohibition enforcement from the, treasury to tlie justice departmeets will Ik. 1 taken up by the house expetldltuive committee Monday, with civil service commissioner Denting on the stand. A letter has lieen seht Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, former assistant attorney general by Chairman Williamson of the committee, inviting her to appear. Letters also will be sent to Attorney General asking his. opinion oil transferring the industrial alcohol unit with the prohibition bureau. Little recognition was attached by congressmen to the parting shot of Bishop Cannon of the Method! t - Episcopal Church in which he laid anti-prohibition activities to Catholics before he sailed for liis rfontli African diocese. Cannon heartily endorsed the law enforcement program and asserted lie 'was Ht.i l a militant leader of the Anti-Saloon League. Son Does Not Want To Support Mother Chicago, Jail. 25,—(U.R)—For six years Leo Edelstefn, manager of a chain of shoe stores, and bis blind and invalid mother have been estranged because he was ordered to pay her sl2 a week. When Edelstein visited his mother Thursday afternoon and pressed a paper into her hand, she believed the breach was healed, al--1 hough he did not talk much. Happily she asked iter daughter, Mrs. Max Miller, with whom she lives, to tell her how b’g the check was. Mrs. Miller read. It wasn’t a check, it was a summons for Mrs. Edelstein to appear in court and show cause why her allowance from her son should not be reduced. Mrs. Edelstein appeared in court yesterday, wrapped in blankets and told Judge I. L. Weaver that E lelstin lias changed bis name to Elliott and makes S7O a week. “This recital surpassess all belief," the judge told Edelstein. "That a son should treat a mother so. Your motion is denied and I only wish that there was a motion to increase the allowance for I would approve it.” Hart Leaves Large Estate, Report Shows Chicago, Jan. 25 —-(U.R) —Harry llutt, one of the founders of the Hart, Schaffner & Marx Clothing company, left an estate of approximately $<1,000,000, ltis will on file today revealed.

This plan wduld provide for an original assignment of tonnage to categories, but would give each nation tlie right to shift its tonnage from otic classification to another upon giving due notice to j tlie other powers. Under such a scheme, it probably will be suggested that a limit be placed on tlie amount that may thus be transferred, probably 10 or 2o per cent, but no authoritative information was available on this point. Much interest was apparent today in Italy’s broad expression favoring freedom of Hie seas, as enunciated yesterday by Foreign Mint ter Diub Grandi. The main business of the five chief delegates on Monday will lie consideration of tlie agenda, which a British spokesman sahl had not yet been handed to other delegations even In draft form.

Possibility that Italy might raise tlie question of freedom of the seas at the conference was discounted today, however, by members of the Italian delegation, who told tlie United Press Grandi had no such intention. The Italian minister’s allusion to the issue was meant only as a general concept in the problem of world disarmament, they said. — «—•—o ILLNESS IS NEW FLOOD MENACE iCOXTINt En FROM 1 ’AGK ONE) diana national guard.
