South won with the ace and then put dummy in with the ace of spades to take the club finesse. When East failed to follow with a club. West refused to win with the king. Another round of clubs was taken, the ace winning. A club was returned, but West could count, and refused to cash his king. The last club in dummy, thus, never made a trick and declarer went down one. Declarer's correct play was to have laid down the ace of clubs on winning the first trick. Then he was sure to win four clubs, two hearts, two spades and one diamond. iCoovrisht. m. NEA Swire. Inc.l

Sees Aid for Children in Security Act Legion Auxiliary Leader Predicts Better Home Life. Times Special ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. May 27. —Through the United Statec security program. America’s homes are to be rehabilitated, and children are to come into their rightful heritage, Mrs. Peg Barr, Princeton, Ind., American Legion Auxiliary national child welfare chairman, believes. In an address at the sixty-third annual meeting of the National Conference of Social Work here today, Mrs. Barr outlined points of the security act which she believes will accomplish these ends. “There are provisions in the act which prove beyond a doubt that at last the people of the United States have awakened to the realization that the future of this nation depends upon the children of today, and that if we insure that future we must needs look to our building today,” she told Legion auxiliary members attending the conference. “The fact that a distinct consideration is given to children in a Federal act which bears the name ‘security’ leads us to believe that if there is to be a permanent betterment of social conditions generally, it is of paramount importance that there be security for children.” Mrs. Barr reminded her organization members that they are concerned with the well-being of ail children, not only those of veterans. “Our greatest work should be with the parents of children known in the community as ‘neglected,' ” she said.
