PORTLAND CLUB

CHALLENGED

New York, Nov. 1. A direct challenge to the recent decision of the Portland Club to ban the four-five no-trump conven- tion has been made by the National American Co-operative Committeo, of which Mr. Ely Culbertson Is chairman.

Mr. Culbertson good-humouredly accuses the members of Portland Club Card Committee of confusing the meaning of their definition of the words "bid" and "exposed card," and of completely forgetting about their own definition of "con- |ventions."

A Bad Policy

Mr. J. Chuter Edo, chairman of the County Council, said the Coun. ell had no power to prevent the use of land which was too bad for building, and they relied on the foresight and wisdom of the local authorities..

While it was true. that local

arons authorities might get substantial rateable value from such when the County Council was cal led upon to deal on grounds of humanity with floods in arens In which human beings ought never to be placed, it was quite obvious that the county rate would show an expense which would entirely alter the picture.

Sir Philip Henriques said, that recently he saw

a number of houses being erected on land which looked beautifully dry, but ho was told by an engineer that the builder got rid of the housea before the autumn and that in times of flood the water would be 8ft, deep in the drawing-rooms,

The Council gave instructions for further inquiries to be made in the various districts affected.
