The question of whether to double, attractive because, even if a ganc non-vulnerable opponents or to go were in the hand for East-West, it out for vulnerable game at one's would not count that much. own is perhaps the most tantalizing The vulnerability of East-West. problem that duplicate players have however, makes the decision a split- to face.

Under the vulnerability conditions, West has a very difficult decision to make when South overcalls with two diamonds, The trouble is that West must decide, then and there, whether there is a game in the hand for him- self and partner. Because If there isn't, he must not lose the opportuni ty to double two diamonds! With un original bid by East, and a two dla- mond overcall by South West cannot expect any further bidding from the opponents, his own strength making such

A NEWSPAPER

art of modern newspaper pre- sentation has gone into the publication "The Bible For To-day," which has been pub- lished by the Oxford Univer- sity Press.

Headlines and sub-titles as you might see in reading the "Hongkong Telegraph" are used, with illustrations of mo- dern life and warfare to bring the familiar words to life.

Bew

Pictures of tanks and acro- planes, the scattered ruins of bombed and blasted cities, the never-ending crawling masseM of homeless refugees, all these are used as a commentary on the anered text for the modern world.

There are pictures of well- known London buildings, of peaceful streets and friends meeting, of the microphone and moving camera, and of children playing with fishing nets.

their

Captions ally the picture with the text.

They give new meaning to long-known phrases.

John Stirling, a chaplain in the last war, started on his work of editing The Bible for To-day" three years ago.

In a straightforward way, the Bible is presented as news-revelation, news of God's interest in and work for. the common people.

It teaches not a new inter- pretation but rather a new application of God's word to present-day needs.

The pictures (of which there are about 200), by Row- Hand Hilder and other artists give a new background which is neither Oriental nor anci- ent, the common, ordinary background of human exls- .tence in every age,

every- where.

Raw Materials-Their

Principal

The widely known essential raw materials are these:

Iron, aluminium, copper, lead, tin, gold, silver, coal, oil, rubber, wheat and other grains, sugar, timber, cotton and other textile fibres, and electrical power resources.

No one-Camiliar-with-mo- dern civilisation need be told why these materials are neces- sities for any nation. The use of most of them is an. everyday occurrence.

However, a supplementary list can be compiled of what might be called less essential raw materials. Included are:

Manganese, nickel, mercury, zinc, chromium. antimony. cadmium, cobalt, iridium, mo- lybdenum, palladium, stronti-. um, thorium, titanium, tungs- ten or wolfram, vanadium, sulphur, and artificial silk or

rayon.

Now, a simple, agrarian, underdeveloped country might never need to com- plicate its economy with many of the articles on this less essential list. But, n highly industrialised modern nation, such as any of the world's great powers, would consider all the materials in both lists as "must-haves." If the economy of one such" na- tion is to compete with that of others, the items not al- rendy possessed must be at- tained by purchase, or ex- change, or perhaps even by annexation or outright con- quest.

Here is a short analysis of the uses of the less well- known materials:

Manganese-- When com- bined with steel as an alloy, manganese makes Il extra tough and hard. Also makes steel free from air holes. An excellent alloy for, burglar- proof safes.

Nickel-A white, hard metal not tarnished ́even in moiat nir, nickel lends itself readily to the process of electroplat ing, Chlef source: Province of Ontario, Canada.

* Mercury This is the only metal that is a liquid; at or- dinary temperatures. Fami- Har in thermometers and barometers. Spain, Italy, und the United States pro- duce 95 per cent. - of the world's supply.

Zinc Forma brass when? combined with copper. Used to galvanize steel or iron to prevent rust

Chromium-As,

adheres better than nickel. It does not tarnish.

As an alloy with nickel, it resists electricity and is widely used for electrical heating and cooking.

Cadmium-With bismuth, lear, and tin. cadmium forms Wood's metal which melts at moderately low temperatures. Thus, it is used as plugs in fire-prevention sprinkler sys.

toms.

Cobalt-Until recently, co- balt was noted for its useless- -ness-Now-as-an-alloy it is

useful in high-speed tools.

Iridium-One of the ingre- dients of electric light bulb filaments.

Molybdenum-Works won- ders with steel. Used by Germans for lining their larger guns. Also good for rifle-barrels, propeller-shafts, wherever grent strength is needed.

Palladium-Protects the surface of floodlight lenses against-tarnishing.

Strontium-Comes from a village in Scotland called

Strontian. Makes

a bright red fire for signal rockets and fireworks.

WOMEN WORKING-Those girls in London are not hurling bricks at each other. They are women labourers clearing debris of a building demolished during an air raid, At present they are given three-quarters of a man's pay cach. If the women-labourer scheme works well, they'll be given full pay later,

Titanium-Helps harden steel. Also is an ingredient of artificial fogs and smoke-

Tungsten-Similar to mo- lybdenum. Also used as a filament metal. Compounds iseful for fireproof fabrics.

Vanadium-Gives steel elasticity combined with grent tensile strength. Good for precision machines and mov- ing parts.

Sulphur-Forms thousands of compounds, most of which are foul-smelling. Most im- portant as ingredient of sul- phuric acid, one of the most- used commercial reagents.

Rayon-Valuable as a re- placement or substitute for silk and silk products.

Antimony-Alloys used in newspaper and printing offices for type metal. Also used as

a compound in the vulcanisa- tion of rubber.
