If you make a weak third-hand opening bid, remember that you must never rebid the hand under any circumstances. If you enter the bidding again you are telling your partner that you have a veal hand. Take for example the following hand: South, the dealer, passed, West

passed, and North bid one spade. East overcalled with two diamonds, and South bid two hearts. North took the bidding to six hearts. South now showed spade support with a bid of six spades. This allowed North to bid seven spades, as he now had found a home for his losing club. South is definitely marked with the ace of hearts, due to the fact that when West overcalled with two diamonds South need not have made any bid—he could have passed.

Therefore, his overcall was a constructive bid and could not have been made, considering all the tickets North held, unless South had the ace of hearts. Seven hearts cannot be made because West would open a spade which East would ruff. (Copyright 1933. by NEA Service. Inc.)

SALVATION FOR GERMANY SEEN IN AGRICULTURE Large Industrial Population Will Go Back to Soil Under Hitler Plan. BY CLIFFORD L. DAY United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright. 1933. bv United Press) BERLIN, May 6.—Nazi agriculture policies will save Germany from serration, Walter Darre. personal advisor to Chancellor Adolf Hitler and head of the Nazi agricultural department. told the United Press today, in the first authoritative statement of a revolutionary agrarian program. “The interruption in the international exchange of goods has resulted in the German people being no longer in the position of safeguarding their nourishment through exchanging industrial goods for agricultural products," he said. “Hence, economically, the German agricultural policy has no choice but to concentrate on supplying foodstuffs from its own soil.” The Nazis will concentrate every effort toward sending large industrial populations back to the soil. Seen as Only Hope “Only by this means can Germany solve the problem of nourishment,” he declared. Darre’s star is in the ascendancy in Nazi Germany. For years he has been close to Chancellor Hitler, especially in agricultural matters. Well-grounded reports are that Dr. Alfred Hugenberg, Nationalist leader, soon will resign from the cabinet and Darre will replace him as minister of agriculture and economy. Darre is president of the National Association of Peasants and Farmers and of the Farmers’ Co-Opera-tives. Nattily dressed in the- black uniform of a storm trooper, Darre leaped to his feet when the correspondent entered his office, clicked his heels together, and held out his hand in the Nazi salute. “Hail Hitler!” he exclaimed. Tells His Policies Then he outlined his policies. “To help agriculture is the keystone of the first year's plan in Hitler's program,” he said. “First, we want to prevent foreclosures on agricultural property. Second, we want to lower the interest rates. Third, we want to reduce the indebtedness of the agrarian population. Last, we seek internal colonization. Some of these measures already have been effected and the others are in preparation. “Our aim, since we favor ths small farmer, is much the same as Soviet Russia's wheat factories (mass production by collectivized agriculture.) We want to establish small farming units run by peasants attached to the soil.”
