BY WM. E. M’KENNEY S*f,retry American Bridee League THIS is the fourth of a series of six articles showing how to score a double rubber at contract bridge. Eight hands already have been scored. The ninth, added to the sheet today, completes the first rubber. Small Slam Bid and Made East and West bid for a small slam in diamonds, which was doubled. They made seven diamonds, but as only six were bid, only six diamonds doubled are scored in the trick score. Diamonds count 20 points per trick—doubled 40—therefore East and West score 240 points below the line in their trick score. This now gives them two games, and as these two games were secured before the opposition made one game, this is a two-game rubber and they are entitled to the two-game bonus, which is 700 points scored in their honor score. If their opponents had scored a game their bonus would have been only 500. Entitled to Overtrick They bid for a small slam. Although they made a grand slam, they take the small slam bonus only. As they were vulnerable, they scored 750 points in their honor score for the small slam bonus. If they had not been vulnerable, they would receive only 500 points for a small slam bid and made. If they had bid a grand slam, they would have scored 1,500. They made seven, therefore they are entitled to one overtrick. The overtrick bonus is 50 points when the contract is not doubled, regardless of vulnerability, but when the contract is doubled, each overtrick counts 100 points when not vulnerable. As their side was vulnerable and the contract was doubled, they receive 200 points for the overtrick in their honor score. Bonus Is Given They are entitled to a bonus for successfully making their contract doubled. This bonus is 50 points not vulnerable, and 100 points when vulnerable, therefore East and West also score 100 points in their honor score for making their contract doubled. East, who was the declarer, held all five honors in his hand, therefore East and West score 150 points in their honor score. We will assume that the same players are going to play another rubber, as it is customary to play two rubbers with the same partner, therefore we will draw a double line under the 240 to signify the end of the first rubber.

GREAT POWERS' CAUTION LEAVES JAPAN DEFIANT Britain, France, U. S. and Russia Afraid of Taking Initiative in Far East. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scrippa-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.—The reason for the shocking failure of Europe and the United States to back up the peace pacts in the far east now can be told. Great Britain, France, the Uinted States and Soviet Russia are shown as sharing the blame and about in the order named. Failure to act decisively was prompted, on the one hand, by national Interests, and, on the other, by the fear of being I isolated, then drawn into war with Japan. Action through the League of Nations, It apepars, has been blocked largely by France and England, though absence of the United States from the league’s council was another determining factor. Jtussia, secretly burning up over Japan’s foray in Manchuria and j Mongolia, has felt herself powerless | to exercise a restraining hand, because she is not yet ready for war —especially a war on two widely separated fronts in Europe as well as in Asia. Washington in Quandary Washington, from the outset, has teetered between the devil and the : deep sea. It wants to stop the prairie fire in the Orient, yet every attempt to co-operate with the league in an effort to present a united front has brought an explosion from the isolationists. Nor is that all. Though it is not admitted officially here, Washington senses the danger of being caught too far ahead of the parade, and left there to fight it out with Japan alone. Already, according to Tokio dispatches, public opinion in Japan appears convinced that the United States is the only country inclined to raise any obstacles in the way of Nippon’s advance in Asia. To make the position of this country all the more delicate, there is more than a grain of truth in this conviction. Britain, France and the other principal European powers not only have been lukewarm, but positively cold, toward positive action against Japan. Britain Checks China Britain persistently has been opposed to the league going to the mat in behalf of invaded China. She has done everything she could to prevent Dr. Yen, Chinese delegate at Geneva, from invoking articles 15 and 16. Article 15 leads to Article 16, and Article 16 calls for sanctions, economic and military. These articles are the “teeth” of the covenant, and Britain fears it would be largely up to her to make those “teeth” click. Were the league to decide to boycott Japan, it probably would fail unless backed by force. The United ! States might refuse to join the boycott, insisting instead on the “freedom of the seas” and its “right” to trade with any country it pleased so long as there was no actual blockade. Actual blockade of Japan not only would mean war with Japan, but, if the United States or any other power objected, war with that country as well. France Eyes Germany And Britain is not looking for any more trouble. She has plenty at home. India is in a state of revolt. Europe is a rumbling volcano constantly in danger of eruption. Britain does not really care I very much what Japan ‘ does to j China, but she does care very much what happens to Europe, to India, and to herself. So she wants to keep her hands free. France’s position is similar. She, at heart, is indifferent to what becomes of Manchuria, so long as South China, where her interests are grouped, is let alone. But she is afraid of Germany and of the convulsions Europe may go into any time. Apparently, therefore, Japan has a pretty clear field ahead. The major powers of Europe are indifferent. and the United States sees peril in pushing matters too vigorously. Japan’s conscience, it seems, must be her guide.

BRITAIN FACES FIGHT IF IRISH OUSTJJOSGRAVE De Valera Conceded Good Chance for Victory in Election Today. By United Press DUBLIN, Irish Free State, Feb. 16.—Eamon de Valera’s fianna fail party with its tremendous strength in th® rural districts inay overthrow President William T. Cosgrave and his government parliament (dail) majority in today’s general election. And a De Valera victory is believed to mean more trouble for Great Britain. Viol face marked the closing hours of the pre-election battle. Hidden assassins waylaid James Ennis, a government candidate, Monday, and fired two shots at him. The assassination Sunday of a candidate and a detective has resulted in dispatch of troops to many electoral areas to insure peaceful polling. De Valera, fiery republican leader, has made Ireland’s complete independence from the British crown the outstanding issue in the campaign. Cosgrave stands for allegiance to England. If De Valera should win a majority in the dail, one of his first acts, he has stated repeatedly, will be to abolish the oath of allegiance to England and relieve Irish ciUzens, chiefly her farmers, of a dent to England which is heavier ner capita than the war reparations which Germany owes the allied powers.
