Chooe* The Finesse To Make The Slam toy Alfred Sheinwold If you always hold miserable cards you acquire the habit of taking any finesse that raises its head. With today’s hand, however, you see that better days are here. With a finesse in each suit, you can pick and choose.

If you think that East has the king of clubs, you can take the ace and return the queen for a " ruffing finesse through East. If you don’t fancy a club finesse you can try a finesse in spades. Or you can try to locate the queen of hearts or the queen of diamonds. One good guess will bring the slam home. Before you read on, decide which finesse you would take if you could not see any of the East-West cards. BEST PLAT . Tie best play for the slam is to take no finesses at all! 'Win the ace of clubs and ruff -a club. Then lead the queen of spades, but rise with dummy's aee rather than take a finesse. Ruff another club and then give up a spade trick.

If the queen fails to fall, you can still try a finesse through either opponent for the queen of hearts. DAILY QUESTION As dealer, you hold: S-A 6 4; H-K 10 8; D-K J 10 9; C-A Q J. What do you say? Answer: Bid one diamond. The hand is slightly too strong for an opening bid of 1-NT; and you open with one of a suit with the intention of making a jump rebid in notrump at your next turn. You have 18 points in high cards, together with two tens and a nine. You would bid 1-NT with a bare 18 points but should avoid doing so with a well-upholstered 18 points.

March 2, 1867, was a day of multiple defeat for President Johnson. The Tenure of Office Act became law over

his veto. It prohibited his removing any civil officer (including members of the Cabinet)

without the consent of the Senate. A Command of the Army Act directed

that all military orders of the president be issued through the General of the Army [Grant], whose headquarters were to be in

Washington.

The so-called Reconstruction Act, which Johnson vetoed, was overridden that same day. It stipulated that ten of the fallen Confederate States be under military control until qualified for restoration to the Union by reorganization on a ba^is of Negro suffrage, disenfranchisement of rebels, ratification of the 14th Amendment. Johnson’s bitter enemy, Benjamin Wade of Ohio, became president pro tempore of the Senate, and therefore acting vice president of the United States—Johnson’s automatic successor in case of Johnson’s death or disqualification. Wade was a leader of the Radical Republican group in Congress who opposed Johnson's attempt to maintain Lincoln’s announced policy (in the Second Inaugural Address) toward the South—"Malice toward none, with charity for all... to do all which may achieve a just and lasting peace among ourselves” and implanted their forceful measures into the acts passed on March 2, 1867.

MARCH OF EVENTS

LBJ WANTS TO KNOW WHO MANS TO RETIRE

HE'S ANXIOUS TO KEEP EXECUTIVE TEAM INTACT

By HENRY CATHCART Central Press Washington Correspondent TTTASHINGTON—The White House is quietly passing the word W to top administration officials that those contemplating retirement should make their wishes known in the near future. The suggestion is being passed on to the whole range of Washington. officialdom appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, excepting judicial positions and ' some commission-type members whose appointments are for extremely long terms. Ad the word seeps down, some officials have shown concern that the suggestion actually may be a veiled invitation for them to leave, but this is not the case. In virtually i * IpifFpiyf all of the cases the White House desires to see the present executive "team” continue on their jobs. The situation behind the request has to do With the 1968 presidential campaign. President Johnson apparently wants his government Seovtary Fowler subordinates firmly fixed In their jobs throughout 1968. He does not want to see a number —He map of high-level resignations as the lime apeoon resign proaches for the Democratic convention, the campaign and the election next year* There is a good possibility that the White House nudge will bring to a head several high-level resignations in the weeks and months immediately ahead. The biggest name an the potential resignation roster at the present time is Henry J. Fowler, secretary of the Treasury. Fowler’s resignation has been rumored frequently in recent months. His likely successor would be Undersecretary Joseph W. Barr, a former congressman who has served the Kennedy and Johnson administrations in a number of delicate executive assignments. Don’t look for a change in status at Secretary of State Doss Rusk, or Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara. • e • e • BUGGING — Condemnation of the practice of govonusioM agencies using electronic eavesdropping devices has caused considerable concern in the Internal Revenue Service, where "bugging” to obtain information on tax dodgers long has been used. Recently, IRS Commissioner Sheldon Cohen requested hie farflung agents to report on all eavesdropping activities they may have conducted over the past nine years. A similar request was made in 1965, hut Cohen is so anxious to gather all possible material on the practicet that he has promised that no action would be taken against an agent simply because ha failed to make s full report that year. In his memo to agents, Cohen emphasized that “it is absolutely necessary that ail known or rea* Inesme eonably suspected instances of electronic surveil* lance he immediately reported.” But despite the ° Insistent note in communication, Cohen is not "EutflUteT hopeful that much new information will bo uncovered. It seems that the only way to leant about this activity is to get a list of all agents operating “bugs” and in turn '’bug” them to ■ee if they'll say something significant about "bugging” in unguarded moment^

Las Vegas police. Lt. B. J. Hanlon said Williams, 28, was recognized by a Fontana, Calif., woman as he walked through the casino of the Fremont Hotel in downtown Las Vegas. The woman notified a casino security officer, who summoned police, Hanlon said. Williams had been employed as an assistant cashier at the Security First National Bank’s Inland Division headquarters in Riverside, Calif. The money was taken last July from Security’s Fontana branch, where Williams had served as assistant manager from Sept., 1963; to July, 1965. When approached in the casino, Williams at first gave a false name, officers said. Then he broke down, they said, and admitted he still had "quite a bit” of money in northern California, several thousand dollars in his car and several thousand more in his hotel room. Officials at the Fontana bank said that sometime between closing on Thursday, July 14, and opening the following day, Williams apparently took $197,528 in cash and 3377,528 in negotiable travelers’ checks and blank money orders.

At a time of election or a time of strife, he said, the Democrats can work together.
