New Theory for Women Recognized Feminine Lot in Russia Is That of Some in Many Nations. BY G RETT A PALMER Tlmr Special Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 18. The woman of Soviet Russia is always an enigma and a good subject for the Tuesday Afternoon Ladies’ Clubs to discuss. But this month, we suspect, she will practically monopolize the conversation at such worthy gatherings, for she is the subject of a book by Fannina W. Halle called, with chaste simplicity, ‘‘Woman in Soviet Russia.” The general outline of the Russian womans lot is familiar to us. We know about the government birth control stations, the ease of swapping partners in a marriage, the economic equality, the creches. And we are inclined to gaze goggleeyed at these privileges the Soviet sisters enjoy. These things seem remarkable, however, in much the same way as it still seems a little breath taking to be able to walk into a decorous hotel restaurant and call for a dry Martini without having it served to you out of a coffee cup. The astonishing thing about the Russian woman is less the life she lives than the fact that it is all eyed benevolently by an up-to-date and approving government. Russia has recognized the existence of the modern woman and assured her that the sky is the limit. Many Lead Same Life There are some women in every country who lead much the same life as that which is legally permitted to the Russian girl. In America, perhaps, there are more women of this type than in European countries. Such a woman may be bored and inconvenienced by the existing statutes, but she does not permit them to cramp her style very seriously or to sway her, for a minute, out of the course she has appointed for her life. The dissemination of birth control is illegal in America. But few people are naive enough to imagine that there is any great difficulty experienced by a woman who wishes to acquire either the knowledge or the contraceptives necessary to limit her family. Divorce Costs Less There are stringent and harsh divorce laws prevailing in many of these states—New' York being an outstandingly narrow one—in the grounds on which it permits action to be brought. Well, do you really believe that every New York divorce granted is based on the actual case of infidelity cited as evidence? Or that of the thousands of divorces granted in this country every year a large proportion are not based on collusion and therefore illegal? The American woman who wishes to extricate herself from an uncongenial marriage has to go through some tiresome red tape to do so —but she does it, anyway. From the practical standpoint, the process of ridding oneself of a married partner here is simply more costly than the Soviet system. The laws are very ineffective of keeping together people who wish to be apart. The American mother of today may not send her child to the government creche. Instead, she sends it to the progressive school, where it is happily occupied throughout the day. Serenely Disobedient There is discrimination in wages against the woman worker in America, but she can work and support herself in independence if she wishes. There is a social prejudice against her having an unmarried love affair, but if she keeps reasonably quiet about it she is in scant danger of being stoned in the streets. There are plenty of women in the western world who move through life in serene disobedience of the convention and laws which would deprive them of equality with men. If the United States were to adopt the Soviet constitution and attitude tomorrow’ their way of life would undergo no revolution whatsoever; it would simply be a sort of moral repeal day.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Seretary American Bridge Leaeue JUST because you have a void suit in one hand with trump, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is always advisable to ruff your losing cards at the first opportunity. It often pays to sacrifice one trick to win two or more later on. An example of this play is given in today’s hand, which was played in the national women’s contract team-of-four championship event at Cincinnati recently. Over North’s weak third hand diamond bid, it is better for East, who is vulnerable, to double than to overcall with one heart. If partner bids hearts, East can give him another chance on the hand, while if partner bids spades, East is satisfied to permit him to play it at that suit. * * a WESTS bid of one heart is proper, as, due to the fact that partner has made a negative

double, his suit may be spades, in which case his hand is of little help. East gives his partner a chance on the hand by showing a fit with the bid of two hearts. West now takes the strain off the hand by going to four. North’s opening lead is the queen of diamonds. At first glance it looks as though the natural thing to do is to trump the diamond—West has four diamonds and all four can be trumped in dummy. But if this diamond is trumped, the declarer can make only four odd, as he will have to lose two clubs and a spade. The correct way to play the hand is not to trump the diamond, but to discard the three of clubs from dummy. Now South is forced to go in with his ace of diamonds. South will cash his ace of spades and lead another spade, which West can ruff. Now one of dummy’s losing clubs can be discarded on the king of clubs, the ace takes care of dummy’s other club, and five odd are made. (Copyright. 1934. by NEA Service. Inc.)

WHEN YOU’RE HEALTHY YOU’RE HAPPY I The blame for “blue” days can be laid often to common constipation. It may bring los9 of appetite and energy, sallow and pimply skins, even serious illness. Correct it by eating a delicious cereal. Research shows Kellogg’s AllBeam provides “bulk” anfl vitamin B to relieve common constipation. Also iron for the blood. The “bulk” in All-Bean is mnch like that in leafy vegetables. Isn’t this better than taking patent medicines—so often harmful? Two tablespoonfuls of All-Bean daily, relieve most types of constipation. With each meal, in chronic cases. If not relieved this way, see your nuuyjfb doctor.
