HOOVER ADOPTS 'BIO STICK' TO PUSH CONGRESS Appears Before Senate in New Role; Lacks Teddy’s Fire. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER t nltcd Frm Staff Carreapandqpt WASHINGTON, June 2. Alter more than three years in the White House. President Hoover finally picked up the "big stick" of one of his famous predecessors, Theodore Roosevelt. His personal appearance before the senate was the climax of a recent growing aggressiveness. It was in complete contrast with his attitude during the enactment of the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill, when senators were unable to find out what he wanted before they passed the bill. It was Mr. Hoover's theory then that the President was not supposed to influence congress, but, instead, was ordained by the Constitution to sit passively in the back ground, and then accept or reject whatever legislation congress decided to send him. Appeal for Aggressiveness Now on the eve of the presidential camps lgn, under the prodding of numerous advisors, he suddenly has thrown aside that theory, and lashed out to try to drive a disorganized and indecisive congress in the direction he wants it to go. Many times previously, friends had told him he ‘‘ought to be a Roosevelt" and go alter congress. "But I'm not like Roosevelt was, and I can't pretend to be something I am not." Hoover replied in substance. But in the last few weeks, as congress floundered deeper in the conplicated tax legislation, friends increased their pressure on him. Finally, he was persuaded to issue one or two strong utterances. They were not strong enough and 1 a group of newspaper editors recently appealed to him to be still more aggressive. So he broke his custom of sending written messages to congress, and appeared in person. Air of Reluctance There was, however, the air of a reluctant appearance in his manner. He spoke in a low tone, barely audible voice. There was none of Roosevelt’s sharp pounding of desks, the brandishing of manuscript. the ironic falsetto, the biting off of short, hard words. Neither was there in Mr. Hoover any of the authoritative, commanding, facile eloquence, which Wilson aummoned in critical situations. Though Mr. Hoover was unable to throw himself with spectacular personal force into the role he had suddenly chosen, ‘he very fact of his apparance before, the senate registered an important decision on his part—an attempt to asssume an aggressive rather than a passive part in shaping legislation at this crisis. What political effect this sudden energizing will have In the campaign Just opening will be a matter of widespread speculation. Many Republicans feel that assertion of aggressive White House leadership will help them. Wants Uncertainty Ended It is probable, however, that Hoover viewed the situation in a broad- i er light, (or a heavy foreign run onj American gold, the fall of the con- j dilatory Bruening government in Germany, and the uncertainty over! the American tax program had created a world-wide state of apprehension somewhat resembling that which spread almost a year ago wh n the collapse of the Austrian Central bank prompted Mr. Hoover to propose a war-debt and reparations moratorium. The main need, in his mind, was not so much which form of tax is adopted, but the necessity of immediate decision to end the uncertainty. It was uncertainty which caused Europeans, who well remember the disastrous effects of their own inflation and failure to balance budgets. to be more apprehensive of the stabilty of the American dollar than conditions justify.

BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary. Aaieriean Rridrr Umr Returning east, we win stop off at Philadelphia to meet Mrs. H. L. Petersen who, with her

partner, holds the women's auction pair c h a mpionship. Mrs. Petersen has made a fine record as a tournament player and well has earned the right to qualify as one of the country’sleading bridge players. It is quite unusual to find a squeeze play developing in a hand which contains no suit longer than four cards. However.

Mrs. Petersen

Mrs. Petersen discovered the play in the following hand which she submits:

and opened the bidding with two spades. Her partner bid three spades and Mrs. Peterson bid five no trump, which her partner carried to six no trump. The Play West's opening lead was the i queen of hearts, which Mrs. Peterson won with the ace and then ; played a small club, winning In dummy with the ace. Mrs. Petersen calls attention here to the fact that when a suit is divided, four in one hand and three in the other, such as her diamond and spade suits, you will find in the majority of casesj that the six outstanding cards of that suit will not be divided three-three, but will more apt to be divided four-two, and this is what she provided for in the play of the hand. Her next play was the queen of spades from dummy, which West won with the king, returning the Jack of hearts. Mrs. Petersen winning with the king. She now led three rounds of spades, discarding a heart from dummy. West discarded a club and a heart. Mrs. Petersen then cashed her king: of clubs and then led the queen of clubs and West was helpless. If he discarded the ten of hearts, | Mrs. Petersen's eight will win a trick, while if a diamond was dls- I carded, then Mrs. Petersen will \ win four diamond tricks. Mrs. Petersen received top score j on the board by playing the hand at no trump. Six spades or six no trump can be made, but both re- j quire exactly the same squeeze play. I (Coovrliht. 1932.
