Generalissimo Franco's Government may soon find itself in the paradoxical position of set- tling with the United Nations for the money and arms Germany provided to help her bring him, to power.
German and Italian aid to Franco began soon after his rising in July 18, 1936, against the Spanish Republic. Mussolini's bill for help to Franco came to 5,000,000,000 lire between · 1939 and 1945.

(East had not signalled the doubleton in hearts because he couldn't over-ruff the dummy). The spade Queen held the third trick, and West continu- ed with the spade Jack; and that held also. Now West dared not lead another spade, for he knaiv East's Ace would fall off the trick and it looked as though South could well afford to ruff out the spade Ace. So West shifted once ugnin, this time to the Jack of trumps.

Dummy took the club Ace and led to South's club King; and the fall of West's ton revealed the sad story. East had four trumps, and winning the rest of the tricks was going to be a real problem! But after some thought, he solved, the problem. Mr. Hollander simply cashed the top diamonds, then led the low heart and ruffed with dum- my's last trump. Thereupon, East was squeezed. In three suits, one of which was trump! If East discarded the spade Ace, dummy would load the spade King; and if East dis carded again, South would dis card the heart and win the rest with his tramp tenace. (It East ruffed, South could over ruff, draw the Inst trump, and cash the heart Queen)..If East discarded the diamond Jack, dummy would continue with the last diamond, with the ama effect. And It East discarded a trump, South could regain the lead by ruding so as to draw the last trump and cash the heart Queer.
