-Coin Shortage ing Congress, is the diminishing national supply of silver. Present silver sources are not adequate to meet the current rate of consumption of both coinage and industry. Just as concerned about the problem as the nations business community is Congress, which has asked the Treasury to submit recommendations to ease the situation. Expected early next year, the Treasury proposals may well result in the first major change in the composition of U. S. coinage since 1792.
West opens the three of spades, and East wins with the queen. East continues with the ace of spades and then with the king. South should ruff with the nine if he thinks East has the queen of hearts. But if West has the queen. South should ruff with the ace of hearts and then the jack of hearts through West for a finesse. How does South know? Forget, if you can, that you are looking at all of the cards • and that you can see which defender has the queen of hearts. ^ You wouldn’t know this (presumably) in an actual game, and you would have to use your brains instead of your eyesight. THE OPENING BID You may consider playing East for any and all missing strength because of his opening bid. You should expect East to hold six spades to the A-K-Q . and the ace of clubs, but the location of the queen of hearty is still in doubt. The important feature is

UPI — President Gamal Abdel Nasser's charge of ,U, ,S. “bullying,” coming on the heels of last week’s Egyptian attack on an unarmed American plane, threatened today to create a new crisis in relations between Egypt and United States.

“We will continue to send
arms,” he said.
Nasser’s speech was his bitterest attack on the United States since 1957, when America virtually cut off its aid to

No Wild Boars In Sullivan Co. SULLIVAN, Ind. UPI - There are no “wild boars” in Sullivan County and hunters who persist in seeking them ^ may find themselves explaining I to a judge. Conservation officer Charles Rice said Wednesday a rumor 1 apparently was started that the wild porkers could be found along the Wabash River in the western part of the county. He said the rumor had drawn large j numbers of hunters here and that farmers in the Graysville area had reported the loss of several domestic hogs. Farmers in the area are ac-1 customed to letting their hogs roam freely over their land and the surrounding terrain led the Rice said the rugged nature of strangers into thinking they are in a wilderness instead of on j private property.

Speth. whose term has two years to run. died Sunday.
Nutting said he was happy to have a job that would take him back to his Jeffersonville home but “it has been a great honor to seme the people of Indiana.

I am afraid many people do not know all the problems.” In asking Welsh to appoint Clouse to succeed him. Nutting said he was “not bypassing” his j chief deputy, Richard Weaver of Franklin. "I feel it would hot be in his interest to be appointed to this post at this time,” Nutting said. He added that Clouse “does not l intend to stay any length. of I time because he has plans of his own.”
