U. S. Business Is Receiving Aid In Large Loans RAILROADS, BANKS AND AGRICULTURE LENT LARGE SUMS Advancements Aggregat ing $183,800,000 Al ready Made By Govern ment Finance Corpora tion. The strengthening hand of the Re construction Finance corporation has poured $183,800,000 into the credit stream of American business through loans to agriculture, banks and rail roads. Ranks, trust companies, and build ing and loan associations have receiv ed advances to the extent of $61,800, 000. The corporation has gone to the assistance of 2 5 5 such institutions. Country banks, their credit strained to the limit by falling security prices and hoarding, received most of the loans to financial institutions. Hard pressed railroads have been ad vanced $47,000,000 and agriculture has received $75,000,000 through de partment of agriculture agencies and the intermediate credit banks. The amount made public does not include a $1,000,000 loan made to a bank two weeks ago which was repaid within five days. The corporation also has authorized a number of loans to banks whch have not been called for and unless credit in the communities tightens per ceptibly may not be called for at all. Railroad loans have been made large ly to carriers unable to meet principal payments, and in some cases'interest payments, on major obligations. Much of the $47,000,000 that went to railroads will be repaid by the Rail way Credit association as fast as its revenues come in. This organization was established after freight rate increases had been allbwed by the Interstate Commerce commission on condition that strong er roads assist ,the weaker lines by de positing in a mutual association extra revenue derived from the higher charges. So far this association has not been able to make its influence felt in rail way credit but information at the cor poration indicated most of the loans to railroads would be repaid out of this fund soon.

Such hands occur about four-fifths of the time and are called normal hands because they are the usual hands, the ones that occur four times as often as the other types. Hands that contain suits of more than five cards in length are the unusual hands, the ones that occur only one-fifth of the time. Hands that contain a suit of six cards are not particularly unusual but those that contain a suit of seven or more cards are the real freaks. Such hands occur very seldom but their proper bidding is both interesting and difficult. The following problem hands are “freaks” but interesting, because all contain most unusual features. Hand No. 1 Hearts — K, Q, J, 7, 6 --- Clubs — none : Y : Diamonds — A, J, 10, 9, : A B : 8, 7, 6, 2 : Z : Spades — none - No score, first game. Z dealt and bid one club. What should A now bid with the foregoing hand? AUCTION BIDDING: A should bid one diamond. If over bid, he should continue bidding dia monds and not show the heart suit at ajl. There is no advantage in a shut-out bid of five diamonds. Z has already shown his club suit and, if Y has a spade bid, he is more apt to bid five spades over a five-diamond bid than if A bids one diamond and then bids up the hand gradually. It is not ad visable to show the heart suit because A’s partner is more apt to assist hearts than diamonds and A’s heart suit is not strong enough to trump clubs and spades. One diamond, therefore, is A’s proper bid. CONTRACT BIDDING: A should bid two diamonds, a forcing bid over the dealer’s club bid. His partner is thus forced to bid and, unless he bids hearts, A’s next bid should be five diamonds. If the partner bids hearts or assists diamonds, A should bid a little slam in hearts or diamonds accordingly. Hand No. 2 : Y : : A B : : Z : Hearts — A, Q, J, 9, 7, 4 Clubs-A, Q,J, 10,7,6,2 Diamonds — none Spades — none No score, rubber game. What should Z, as dealer, bid with the foregoing hand? AUCTION BIDDING: Z should bid one heart and, if over bid, should show the club suit. This hand i? different from the preceding one in that the heart suit is longer and stronger and the club suit is not so strong as the minor suit in hand No. 2. It is a hand, therefore, in which both suits should be shown if possible and J5 No. 9 for that reason does not justify a shut-out bid of either hearts or clubs. CONTRACT BIDDING: Z should bid two clubs and on the next bid show the heart suit. The “two-bid” at Contract is a forcing bid, so Z is sure of another chance to bid. The hand is a sure small slam if partner can assist either clubs or hearts, and this seems the best way to find out. If partner fails to assist either suit, Z should bid five clubs. Hand No. 3 - Hearts — none : Y : Clubs — none : A B : Diamonds — A, K, Q, T, : Z : 8,4,3, 2 - Spades — A, K, Q, 9, 7 No score and A B a game in. Z dealt and passed, A bid one club and Y bid one heart. What should B bid with the foregoing hand? AUCTION BIDDING: B should bid two diamonds. In this hand, also, B has nothing to gain by a shut-out bid. Both of the other suits have been shown and the purpose of a shut-out bid is to shut out information; so, if the information has already been given, what would B accomplish by a shut-out bid? Such bid would only inform the opponents that B had a game hand in diamonds and incite them to overbid to save game. Bid such a hand by easy stages and the results will be much more satisfactory. CONTRACT BIDDING: B should bid three diamonds, which is a forcing bid and requires A to keep the bidding open. If by any chance A should bid spades, B should bid for a grand slam. With any other bid by A, B should bid a small slam in diamonds. If A assists the diamonds, B should bid a grand slam in diamonds. muu i>u. ** : Y : : A B : : Z : Hearts — A / Clubs — none Diamonds — A, K, J, 10, 7,4,3, 2 Spades — A, 7, 6, 3 No score, rubber game. What should Z, as dealer, bid with the foregoing hand? AUCTION BIDDING: Z should bid five diamonds. This is a perfect example of the shut-out bid. The purpose of such a bid is to shut out opponents from showing the heart suit. If Z’s partner should hold the spade suit, nothing will be lost by Z’s shut-out bid for the spades will score as side tricks. CONTRACT BIDDING: Z should bid two diamonds. This bid is a forcing bid and requires a bid by Y. If the latter bids two no trump, the minimum response, Z should bid five diamonds. If Y bids two spades, Z should bid a small slam in spades. If Y assists diamonds, Z should bid a small slam in diamonds. LABOR NEWS By F. T. CORNELIUS, Secretary Salisbury-Spencer Central Labor Union Label Month" The Union Label Trades Depart ment, of the American Federation of Labor, has set the month of April, 1932, for an intensive campaign in the interest of the Union Label, Shop Card and Working Button. v All Central Bodies have been re quested to make special effort to sup port this campaign.

Ride outte was indorsed to enter the June primary as a candidate for the House of Representatives. Mr. Rideoutte is a former member of the General Assembly having serv ed as a representative from Rowan county for two terms in a most able manner. For many years Mr. Rideoutte has been an active and valuable mem ber of organized labor and for that reason his ability is well known and it came as no surprise when he received the unqualified indorsement and the pledge of wholehearted support of the labor movement of this vicinity as he again enters the race for the House. Lock Out The lock out of the employees of the Raleigh Times continues. After many years of successful co-operation the workers of this paper report for work only to find there places filled by others without warning and the only opportunity offered to return to service was for them to sever their union affiliation. This they refused to do and the fight is on. Local labor has a committee appointed to see to it that all firms using advertising in the Ral eigh Times paper will do so with the full knowledge of existing conditions. "Shanghai Express” T aken; Dietrich Held By Chinese "Shanghai Express” is a story of love and adventure, in which Marlene Die ‘‘Lindy’s” Baby Victim of Kidnappers This picture of Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., the 20-month-old son of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, famous trans-Atlantic flier, and his wife, Anne, daughter of the late Senator Morrow, who was stolen out of the window of the Lindbergh home at Hopewell, N. J., on the night of March 1,' was made only a few weeks ago. trich plays the part of Shanghai Lily, a woman who lives by her wits in the coast cities of the Orient and who in the vernacular is known as a ''coast er.” It will be the Capitol theatre’s feature picture next week, Monday and Tuesday. The original story was written by Harry Hervey, a master of fiction lit erature having an oriental flavor. Rec ently, Hervey was discussing "Shang hai Express” with Hollywood friends and recounting his experiences in the Far East. "Once the lure of the Orient gets in the blood, there is no resisting its call,” said Hervey. "Shanghai Express” was born of a thrilling experience I once had on a trip from Pekin to Shanghai. The Chinese revolution was in full swing and my train was held up by revolutibnsts, a common occur rence at that time. By adding a few characters and embellishing the drama, there was plenty of it there at the time, I had the story.” "The Big Parade” Scores Fresh Hit Reissued Sound Version at Victory In tensifies T/frills of Epic War Drama. With the magic of sound added to its thrills and drama, "The Big Pa rade,” greatest achievement of the sil ent screen, will score new triumphs at the Victory theatre Monday and Tues day. Popular demand induced Metro Goldwyn-Mayer to reissue it with com plete recording, in a new talking pic ture screen form that has proved a .revelation. Thrills of battle are intensified as one hears the roar of the big guns. The excitement of the airplane con voy over the big trucks at the front is more breathless as their thunder is sues from the screen. And even the hilarious comedy, when Karl Dane, gigantic laugh-mak er, spits at the lighted candle, is made more hilarious with the addition of the sound that goes with the sight. -:PATTERSON ITEMS: The community meeting was held last Saturday night at the Grange hall with a large crowd in attendance.
