As regards communists in cur- tody he duggested that those who had been directly or indirectly involved in open rebellion should be handed to military tribunals for trial, while those accused of: violence should be tried by ordin- ary courts.

South did not wish to continue with clubs for fear of setting dummy's jack up. He now shifted to his singleton diamond, which North won with the ace.
North had the diamond suit counted but decided to try to kill one of dummy's high diamonds and led the ten of diamonds. The jack was played from dummy, South ruffed with the deuce of hearts and "the declarer over-ruffed with the three. West then led the jack" of hearts, and when North did not cover took the finesse.
