The Bidding.

While the hand does

Pr

contain

five absolutely quick tricks, it is a doubtful two bid due to the fact that if partner's hand is trickless game cannot be made, but with a hand of this type two No Trump is a good opening bid. North, with four spades to the queen, Jack and a five-card suit is justified in Roing to three No Trump.

The Play.

the

West's opening lead was fourth best clubhe six spot. When dummy played the seven. East refused to play bis king but Fcovered with the eight as he was hoping to get in with his king of [spades and be able 10 come (through the declarer's clubs in case declarer did have four to the queen. South won the trick with the ten spot and then led the ace. king and queen of hearts, Weat disenrding two spades.

Declarer then cashed his ace, king and queen of diamonds, Eust discarding a spade. Hoping to force West into the lend, the de- elarer played the eight of dia- monds which West won with the ten.

A small club was returned by West, East winning with the king, and before returning the three of clubs, he cashed his good jack of hearts upon which South discarded his three of spades. Enst relarned the three of clubs which West won with the nine and then cashed his ace of clubs, picking up the declarer's queen, and then played his jack of clubs for the last trick.

South, the declarer, was held to one No Trump. It is quite true that if he had eashed his ace of spades he could have runde two No Trump, but he was trying for game and his play was justified.

INDIA ALARMED

MORE DUTY WANTED ON JAPANESE GOODS

Bombay, June 30. The immediate imposition of additional duties อย Japanese goods, equivalent

dif- to the ferences between the normal and present parity exchange, was urged by the chairman of the Mill- owners Association of Bombay in a teleyram to the Chamber of Com- merce member of the Indian Go- vernment, consequent on the "con- tinued alarming depreciation" of the Japanese Yen.

He pointed out that the yen was greatly below the parity existing when Japan and India were on the gold standard, and thus created a serious menace which Kave an enormous advantage to Japanese exporters, resulting in Japanese yarn and piecegoods being sold on Indian markets at ruinous rates. He emphasised that the situation was likely to become worse owing to the large orders booked for for ward delivery, and that industry could not afford to wait until the Tariff Board reported on the mat- tor.-Reuter.
