South’s jump to six spades was aggressive, but North was really responsible for the silly! slam contract. North should at this second turn without first bidding diamonds as well as clubs. North's bidding would have been proper if the queen of clubs were changed to the ace; and in that case a normal trump break would permit South to make the slam. With the actual layout. South should have lost two club tricks and two trumps. If West had led a club, South would have gone down three. Even If West had led a trump. South would have gone down. West actually led the jack of hearts, and then the Polish master took over.
DISCARDS CLUBS
W T ilkosz took the ace of hearts, ruffed a heart in dummy and cashed the high diamond to get rid of his two clubs. Then he ruffed a club, while East moaned pitifully at the disappearance of the two club tricks. South ruffed another heart In dummy and ruffed a second club in his hand. Then he ruffed his last heart in dummy and returned a diamond, ruffing with
the eight of spades.
By this time South had taken i the first nine tricks, and West was reduced to his four trumps. He had to over-ruff with the nine of spades and then had to return a trump up to South's A-K-J. Six spades bid and made.

Poverty Money Is Allocated By LOUIS CASSELS WASHINGTON UPI—Nearly half the money voted by Congress for the war against poverty — $685 million out of $1.5 billion in the current fiscal year — is earmarked for "community action programs.” A community action program can be almost any kind of project — from a birth control clinic to a night school for illiterate adults. Local planners simply must feel it is of real benefit to the poor in that particular community. Detroit provides free medical and dental treatment. Washington, D.C., offers free legal help. New Haven, Conn., operates neighborhood employment offices. Tucson, Ariz., is organizing credit unions. Henry County, Ohio, is building a rest center for migrant farm workers. A nationwide survey by UPI reporters shows that some community action programs have gotten off to a good start, with wide public support. Others have stirred monumental local
rows.
Much of the controversy stems from a 20-word clause which Congress wrote into the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 in an effort to make sure that community action programs meet the real needs of the poor. It requires that each federal-ly-financed project be ‘‘developed, conducted and administered with the maximum feasible participation of residents of the areas and members of the groups served.” The Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) has interpreted it to mean that no community may receive a federal grant until it can show that the poor are well represented on the policy planning board of its antipoverty agency. Some people—including OEO Director Sargent Shriver—think this is a great idea, the one thing that makes the current war against poverty significantly different from earlier types of social work and public assistance. Others—including the mayors of several big cities—take a dim view of an arrangement which threatens the municipal government’s control over the golden stream of federal dollars. Mayor Sanmuel W. Yorty of , Los Angeles found the whole ! idea so unpalatable that he refused to take the steps necessary to qualify for OEO grants last August in an impoverished Negro section of his city.

WASHINGTON UPI — Agriculture Department economists estimate farm real estate taxes paid in 1965 on 1964 levies total $1.5 billion. This is 5.3 per cent above the farm real estate taxes of $1.4 billion paid in 1964 on 1963
levies.
The average taxes per acre paid on 1964 levies were $1.51 compared to $1.43 a year earlier. The increase in 1964 levies was the 22nd consecutive annual hike in farm real estate taxes. The 1964 levies were more than double those of 1950. The department said there is no evidence to suggest any signif- ^ leant slackening of the rate of increase for 1965 levies payable in 1966. The department said taxes on farm personal property also have trended upward. They were estimated at about $287 million in 1963 because of the lower value of cattle but more than 62 per cent greater than in 1950.
The department said the uptrend in farm property taxes is a direct outgrowth of the steadily expanding revenue require-
! ments of state and local governments. Higher salaries for public employes, higher costs of materials, expanded requirements and rising standards for schools, roads, welfare, and I other services are largely reI sponsible for the growing revenue needs. The property tax— both arm and on-farm — contributes about 80 per cent of all local tax revenues. The department said tax | rates on farm real estate are highest in the Northeast, lake states, the Com Belt, and the i northern Plains. Lowest effec-
I
tive rates are in the Delta, Appalachian, Southeast, and southern Plains regions. States where there is heavy reliance on local financing for governmental services tend to have the highest tax rates. States where a high proportion of state-local functions are administered and financed at the state level tend to have low property taxes. Locale has an effect on taxes. A farm located near a city is i likely to be levied at a higher amount than one a considerable distance from the metropolitan area.
Freeway Roamers | LOS ANGELES UPI—UCLA archaeologists have discovered that the land over which freeways now roam near Culver City was once the habitat of buffalo and contained a previously undetected river. The archaeologists said they found buffalo bones while digging in advance of more free- ■ way construction. They also found prehistoric Indian arrow- ■ heads. Miraculously preserved in hard clay four feet beneath the surface were hoof prints of
buffalo and elk.
