CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
What is the safest system for bidding elams? That is a para- mount question in contract bridge. Showing a definite number of quick tricks is not always satisfactory, as there may be a duplication of values. The hotter player today is beginning to realize that in order to invite a slam, he must have com- mand of at least two suits.
It is generally very easy for part
commands ner to read the two which you hold. Remember, how- ever, that this command of a sult means that you hold either a void sult or the ace-king-queen-Jack is not enough.
When employing the one over one ayatem; if partner were to open with a bid of one heart and you knew that your hand held sufficient strength for him to go game, you This bid should bid three hearts. immediately informs partner that four can be mande, but that you are not inviting a slam.
If you jump the bid to four Hearts, you say to partner. "We are Bife ut live" and that you have com- mand of two suits jump of one 1 four fa a la invitation and hould rot be de unless you do have those two commands.
Here's another example of show- ing control-suppose you open with a bid of one no trump and partner bida two no trump. If you were now to bid four no trump (n most un- made to likely bid, but simply illustrate the point) you would be telling partner that you had absolute command of two suits- in other words, that you held twe suits that were headed by aces as the contract is no trump.
In addition you would inform him that you had a working suit and sufficient tricks, in your opin fan, to make a slam, if he holds a little additional strength.
are
In cue bidding, commands also essential. For example, part-
the bidding with ner openu heart and the next hand bids one spade.
one
If you now bid two spades you show-first, no losing spades; sec- ond, normal support in hearts: third, a slam invitation. You must have command of one other suit be- sides the spade suit because you are inviting a slam.
I am quite sure that if you will refuse to invite slams unless you hold these two commands, that you will immediately find that you are not hidding slam after slam that cannot be made.
Tomorrow I am going to show you an interesting hand that came up in a recent tournament where two partners who were using this command system of building, safely kept from going to a grand slam, and how easily they could have arrived at the grand alam if it had been there.

COMMON-SENSE
THE world has discovered that accepted
Tories will not withstand the pres-
sure of unusual business conditions. They give way and in their place common-senso emerges as the only successful selling factor.
It is on this basis of common-sense that N. Z. Perpetual Forests, Ltd. has attracted over £3,500,000 bond capital.
With clear evidence to show that the world's forests areas were being used up at an alarmingly rapid rate-with a demand for wood-pulp amounting to over £300,000,000 annually in the principal countries alone-.. It was a common-sense policy to advance on a constructive plan of afforestation in the finest pinc-growing land on the face of the earth.
This common-sense policy has enabled N.Z. Perpetual Forests, Ltd. to offer a sound and profitable investment which over 85,000 people have been quick to take advantage of.
A £30 bond-payable by instalments-hns à conservatively estimated yield of £250 in (welve years.
