London, Sept. 9.
An unsettled atmosphere still surrounds the Pales tine conference which is due to hold its pre- liminary meeting here tomorrow.
. It has been hoped that a representative from the Arabs, the Jews and Britain would attend the conference, which is to try to secure "peace in Palestine" so that the Arabs and Jews can live there satisfactorily, but there is still no sign that any Jews will attend the conference when it opens.

BRIDGE NOTES
Average players in the roles of defenders seem to feel that the declarer knows their high card holdings as well as they themselves do. With their at- tention completely fixed on the hand in point they forget that when they are declarer they are in the gravest doubt us to the and kinga. location of .aces Why, then, should they feel that the present declarer is occult? Consider the very simple de- fensive play made by an expert in today's hand, and compare It with the naive tactics of average and lessor pinyera.

The bidding:
North East South West
1 club Pass 2 no-trump Pass Разз Pasa 3 n'trump Pass
*North chooses his artificial club bid rather than violate no- trump requirements.
West opened his fourth highest diamond. East won with the ace and returned the six. South, having no reason to win the second round, play- cd low. Weat won with the Jack and returned the seven, forcing declarer's 'king.
Declarer could count eight tricks: three in spades, three in clubs, one in diamonds, and one in hearts. It was obvious that the only pince to get a ninth trick was in a favourable he im- heart situation, so mediately led a low heart to dummy's king.
Ton many players in Enst'a position would havo gobbled up this trick with the ace, and by so doing would have thrown -away, the one chance to save game by forcing the declarer to a second round heart flnessc. This particular East was much too export for such an error. He played low. without the Declaror slightest healtation.
