grim new chapter in the war’s
Their first war meeting
occurred four years ago last month
--on March 18th, 1840. At that
fBoe—three months before Italy’s
entry into the war—they plotted the
QBb-in-the-back and the blitz in the

~ Europe across the 20-mile-wide

ar»d to rejoice at Britain’s surrender
of Crete.
Later that month. Hitler sent his
armies crashing into the Soviet Uhs-1
ion. So on August 30th. 1941. he
conducted the admiring Mussolini
on a cook’s tour of the Russiafi:
ruins. The pair discussed the Rifs?-1
sian venture at their next meeting,1
in Salzburg on April 28 th, 1942. !
There Hitler outlined to Mussolini
his plans for smashing the Soviets'
with a giant offensive through the
Ukraine, an offensive that pulled up ;
short at Stallingrad and now is run-1
ning in reverse.
By that time, the pendulum was!
beginning to swing—just a little —j
the other way. For the first time, j
the dictators had troubles. Musso-;
lini whined to Hitler for territorial j
crumb6 to appease the growing un-j
rest at home. Hitler needed more
food, more slave labor. America
had entered the war and the weight
of its arms was' being felt. ’
At the next conference, the trend
definitely was in reverse. In Bren-
ner on April 7th of last year the dic-
tators discussed their crumbling for-
tunes in Tunisia, mounting Russian!
pressure and the inevitable Invasion.
Then came that last dramatic meet-
ing. Allied soldiers were in Sicily,
Italy was becoming apart At the
seams. Frantically Mussolini scur-
ried to Hitler for help. But his old,
partner turned him down, so the
Duee bowed out. -
And now his latest meeting—per-
haps the-last before Hitler, too,1
bows out.

AN UNSOUND TRUMP SUIT
Four trumps in one hand oppo-
liU three in the other—that is a
•ituation to avoid If you can possi-
bly do so. It is an unsound trump
suit. If the four-card holding is
forced to ruff a trick, leaving only
three trumps opposite * three, you
ore likely to find one of the de-
fenders with one more trump than
you, and hence able to win the last
trick in the suit. If that happens,
the defenders may peel off several
more Micks against you.

At Table 1 were two players
following a bidding method in
which an immediate raise of the
partner’s possible four-card suit
would indicate four trumps in
support of it. If they do that, they
must be prepared, on occasion, to
rehid any five-caul- Auif That
course got them to the best con-
tract, if game was going to be
tried at all.
At Table 2 were bidders who j
will support with three cards, but
then warn their partners on the
next round that their oH gin ally j
named suit is of only four, cards {
by trying to bid something else, j
They also got into the better suit, \
as North’s secondary raise of !
hearts showed only three, requir- |
ing five from South, which he had.
The Table 3 pajr got into trou-
ble, as South supported spades j
with only three, and North pre-
sumed t}ie suit was safe, which it ’
was not.' Those in hearts lost three
trump tricks'and were down one
when they also lost a club. The 1
spade contractors got badly beat- :
en, for. North had to use a trump
on the second club round, next set
up diamonds successfully, and
then tried todrop the trumps.
When West was left with the final
trump, he scored it. and the side i
finished with heart and club trickg
for a set of three tricks.
