‘VIOLATION’ OF $1.50 LAW TO BE PROTESTED State Taxpayers Invited to Register Demand for Levy Limitation. Taxpayers in all parts of the state have been invited to a mass meeting at 130 Sunday afternoon in the Claypool for registering demands for strict adherence to the $1.50 tax levy limitation law. The invitation was voiced today by Gavin L. Payne, who has been a leader in the fight to restrict levies on real estate to $1.50 in cities and $1 in rural communities. In announcing the meeting, Mr. Payne declared it would not be sponsored by any group of tax reduction advocates, but that it would be attended by leaders supporting the $1.50 law. Preliminary arrangements for the mass meeting were made at a conference the first of the week attended by Mr. Payne, George Fries of Connersville, Joseph Day, Anderson, Claude Cline. Huntington, and Edward Stinson, Frankfort. The Sunday meeting will precede a mass gathering planned by the Indianapolis Real Estate Board for the night preceding the session of the state tax board t which Marion county budgets will be considered, j “The state tax board soon will be j in session to consider the numerous appeals from Indiana counties,” Mr. j Payne said. “This board is con- ; fronted with the question whether the $1.50 law is to be enforced. “We all hope it will rise to the full measure of the responsibilities as put on it by the last two sessions of the legislature, which said the total j limit of the property tax shall be | only $1.50.” i

Contract Bridge

Today’s Contract Problem TTERE'S a hand that employs the triple squeeze to make five odd in spades. Can you do it? It's South's contract for four spades. West opens a club which East holds with the jack, returning a spade. When East was in again with the ace of hearts, he did not return a diamond, but led a heart, and this is the play that enables South to make the triple squeeze.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem. BY W. E. M’KENNNEY Secretary American Bridge League FREAK distribution presents always a bidding problem in contract. The problem hand offered in the preceding article shows the skill with which expert players figure out each bid in order to arrive at the highest possible contract with security. Here is how Ralph A. Miller of Cincinnati, holding the West cards, bid and played the hand. South, a dealer, opened the contracting with one spade. Mr. Miller made a negative double. When you double one major, you tell your partner that you hold strength in the other major. Over the bid of one spade, North went to three spades. This demands that if his partner holds a minimum and a four-card suit, he should respond with three no trump, while if he holds a five-card suit, he should bid four spades. Any other bid on the part of South would be constructive and considered as a mild slam entry.

EAST passed, and over the three spades, South bid four dia : monds. Mr. Miller in the West then bid four hearts, pnd North bid five diamonds. East passed again, and South bid five hearts to show no losing hearts. Remember—he feels that the hand is perfectly safe at five spades. West, of course, passed the five hearts, and North went to six diamonds. His partner had invited a slam without the ace and queen of diamonds and the queen of spades, therefore he had a perfect right to go to six diamonds to show the diamond suit as practically solid. East decided to take a sacrifice and bid six hearts. At that. South went to six spades, and Mr. Miller in the West, fully intending to take a sacrifice, as he felt that his side could not stop the six spade contract, bid seven hearts. Remember, his side was not vulnerable and he could not be hurt much.

This North doubled and, of course, the hand makes seven hearts doubled. All Mr. Miller had to do was to pick up the trump and take a club fine e. (Copyright. 1933. by N" A Service. Inc.)

Startling Disclosures on Prison Break Expected

Startling disclosures of reasons for j the Indiana state prison break are expected to be made public shortly by Governor Paul V. McNutt, it was learned today. Prison trustees have spent several days in making an investigation, result of which was presented to the Governor at Chicago last week. He announced then that he was not yet satisfied and planned on appointing a committee of three, two of whom would have no connection with the state government, to make a separate investigation. Difficulty was experienced in getting two to serve.

Monday afternoon, the Governor conferred at his office with Jess C. Andrew, West Point, a Republican member of the prison board. Andrew said he recommended that the Governor act on the trustees' report as the best information obtainable. He refused to elaborate on details, however. Governor McNutt said he has seen all prison trustees but J. T. Arbuckle, and may abandon the outside committee idea after a conference with him. Captain Matt Leach of the state police was to be one committee member of the three-member committee.
