cooking Over the News— CRIME GRIPS CITY; TAX CUT IS DEMANDED War Threat and Banditry Feature Headlines of Busy Week. BY TRISTRAM COFFIN Time* Staff Writer Headlines shouted alarming news this week as Hitler fanned the embers of European hatreds; a man was wounded seriously in a city holdup; three wealthy Indianapolis citizens were threatend by an alleged blackmailer, and disappearance of $25,000 in bonds from the state teachers' fund was reported. Fashion-plate bandits held up the Hamilton-Harris tobacco warehouse, seriously wounded an employe in a gun battle skirmish, and shot a paloceman. State teachers converged on the state capital only to discover some one had gone A. W. O. L. with $25,000 worth of their bonds. State officials said they knew the secret all along, but kept it to themselves to aid recovery. Tax Series Draws Blood A courageous tax series by James Carvin published in The Times drew first blood in the war against unjustifiable exemptions. Two state tax commissioners announced their support of the movement. Air-minded Walter Dillman was arrested for threatening three wealthy citizens. The alternative of the blackmail money was bombing by airplane. The State co-eds scampered daintily in their nighties out of burning Mansfield hall at De Pauw university early one morning, while men students eagerly aided in the rescue work. Prosecutor Agnes Molter, at Roselawn, protector of morality, s°t out to drive the nudists from Indiana. The nudists fired right back and said it was all innocent fun—that they had nothing to hide. StateProtector Philip Lutz Jr. considered indignantly. Convicts Here—There Escaped convicts took on a will-o'-th’-wisp character as they were reported in every hamlet of the state. Apparently perturbed that the convicts should flaunt themselves so before the arms of the law, A! Feeney considered a shakeup in state police ranks. Europe—War clouds thundered as bellicose, ex-paper hanger Adolf Hitler announced Germany’s resignation from the disarmament conference and the League of Nations. Visiting delegates at Geneva had sitters. Inflamed Swastika-em-blemed Nazis held frenzied celebration. Stolid England Pained Premier Daladier of France testily challenged Hitler’s disarmament sincerity. Stolid England was pained deeply. Italy’s Mussolini looked benignly at the embroglio and asked to be mediator. State Secretary Cordell Hull was alarmed. Austria nipped a Nazi plot to raid her garrisons. Students rioted. Stocks dipped 6 points. Hitler shouted that Germany had been abused in the Treaty of Versailles and that his people would enter into no agreement unless equal terms were assured. Gamblers de luxe. Lloyds of England, offered two to one odds that the world would be moving to war in eighteen months. The noise and fury having been expressed, the thunder subsided for the time being with international statesmen cautiously eyeing one another.

Harvey McNeelv, 48. of 603 West Morris street, watchman for the Dilling Candy Company, told police that Leo Strowder, 29, of 546 Jones street, broke open the front door of the factory.

This jump to two no trump over partner’s original bid of one in a suit does not deny support for partner's suit, but states that the bidder believes there is a fit to the hand. A jump bid to two no trump should never be made with less than two of a partner’s suit, and then only when the side suits are of such excellent strength that a fit is not necessary in partner’s suit. After North’s two no trump. South bids three diamonds, North four clubs, South five clubs, and North now should go to six ciubs. ' ts a WEST’S opening lead was the queen of hearts. South should win with the king and immediately take two rounds of trump. West shows out, discarding two hearts. Declarer next should lead a small diamond, win in dummy with the queen, play the ace of hearts and discard the nine of diamonds. A small heart should then be trumped and the ace and king of diamonds led. If East refuses to ruff the second diamond, but discards a spade, the
