On about 75 per cent of your hands the proper ard winning procedure is to pick up the defenders’ trumps as soon as you can. This prevents the enemy from getting in their small trumps on your good cards in the side suits. But on about one-fourth of your hands it is necessary to defer leading trumps for one reason or another. I have shown you f. number of situations in recent columns where that practice is desirable. Today's hand illustrates another reason for postponing trump leads. You will note that Mr. Dale cannot pull trumps without surrendering the lead for the very good reason that one of tne defenders has the ace of hearts. DEFEND ON FINESSE Mrs. Keen made her best opening lead, the king of clubs, and Mr. Dale won with the ace. Now if he had led trumps at once, the opponents would have gained the lead and proceeded

to cash two club tricks. Then the success of the contract would have depended on the spade finesse Mr. Dale had a better plan than that. Beginning at trick two he led three rounds of diamonds and on the third round he got rid of one of dummy’s clubs. Then he led the queen of trumps. Mr. Masters won with the ace, (ashed the ten of clubs and shifted to a spade. Mr. Dale took the finesse, losing to the king, but that w’as his last loser. WITH THE ODDS Of course you take some chance when you postpone leading trumps. An opponent might ruff in unexpectedly. But in this case Mr. Dale was playing wAh the odds. He could safely run three rounds of diamonds if the opposing eight cards in that suit were divided 4-4 or 5-3. The chances of finding one of these distributions totaled about 80 per cent. And there was only it 50 per cent chance of finding the king of spades right.

Flooa waters of the Delaware nver inundate Port Jervis, N. V forcing the evacuation of about 1.200 persons, as torrential rains hi the northeastern section of the United States. Scores of communities were isolated in the area.

^«j£feWASHINGTON MARCH Of- EVENTS Both Parties Are Happy i . Another Story Next Yee Over Congress’ Record Wilh Elections at Stale Special to Central Press Association W ASIHNGTON—Though the first session of the Democratic-con W trolled Eighty-Fourth Congress brought forth comparative! little important new legislation, both Democrats and Republican seem well-satisfied with the record. The Democrats were content to save until next year such hot issue as farm problems, taxes, and the infiation threat. Cn the investigation side, Democratic leaders believe that th Dixon-Yates probe, the inquiry into Air Force Sec rctary^ Harold E. Talbott's outside business activi ties, and military procurement scandals were de

vcloped into political assets.

The Republican feeling is that Congress did noth ing to upset the Eisenhower administration’

equilibrium.

The Republicans also are pleased that the Presl dent’s critics in his own party, such as Senato Joseph R. McCarthy, have been silenced so effec lively that no embarrassment to Ike need arise oi

that score.

Next year, the situation will be different. Con v gress no longer will be marking time, for contro of both the White House and Capitol Hill will b<

at stake.

The legislators on both sides of the aisle will be battling hammer and-tongs from, opening day until adjournment. * * * * • FOR SALE—For a while, it seemed that the House of Represent* lives was going to share its new office building with private enter prise, but It oil turned out to be a mistake. The building is to be built soon near the Capitol. Much to every one’s surprise, a sign was recently planted at the site advertising “For Sale—50,000 Square Feet of Commercial Space on This Prop-

erty.”

The realty company which put up the sign was asked about it. A spokesman explained that the sign had been ordered before the Hous« decided to build the new structure and before it instituted condemnation proceeding* to take over the land. However, since the site is so near the Capitol, the man who paintec the sign couldn t put it up until he had the approval of the Nationa Fine Arts comr-iission. By the time he got it, the “50,000 Square Feel of Commercial Space” were no longer available Gi anybody but Con-

gress.

The realty company pulled down the sign as soon as It realized what had happened. • • • A • BUDGET—The administration !s probably g !i to tep up it* efforts to balance the budget this fiscal year. The reason is that th« administration wants to be able to say in the 195G campaign that It fulfilled a maj*r campaign pledge. The target date now is June 30, 1050. Admini.rtration sources are highly optimistic that the books will be balanced by then, barring some unexpected international development. The administration will have to forego a tax cut next year, however, to reach its long-sought fiscal goal. * * « • O HAPPY HOMECOMING—Congrt nen bark home until January after the recess of Congress will have less to explain to their constituents than in many a day. There is general prosperity in the country and the United States is not involved in any war so there will be little grumbling among

the voters.

In additiop, President Eisenhower’s Big Four conference has gen-

erated optimism among the Axneiiean people and they ire appreciative of the support given him by thc.r

:ongressmen.

There will be one or two trouble spools, particularly n farm areas and isolated districts where unempl^ynent has persisted but on the whole, senators and

louse members should have an enjoyable tune mending their political

cnee* Una summer.
