MUST HAVE CREDIT
They Cannot Pull Out With
out It, Druggist Head
Declares
By SAMUEL L. ANTONOW,
President, American Druggists
Syndicate.
Relaxation of credit through ad
vances of government loans to such
of the nation’s 1,750,000 retailers as
may need help offers an immediate
and positive way out of the depres
sion.
Credit is as important to business
■’s blood is to the mortal and unless
and until the present frozen retail
credit is thawed out, the business
chaos which has prevailed over a per
iod of four years must continue. If
the government were to advance to
those retail dealer sos the nation who
require it a fraction of the money
advanced by the Reconstruction Fi
nance Corporation to large industrials
railroads, banks, insurance companies
etc. in the last two years, the bene
fits to business would be felt at once.
The large percentage of retailers
who have been ofrced to do their
buying on a cash basis is almost un
believable and itdoes not take an
astute Philadelphia lawyer to jpfrove
that business carried on on a cash
basis is business reduced to amini
mum. Compaiatively small sums ad
vanced to a large number of retailers
would enablethem to wipe out their
debts and re-establish their lines of
credit with their wholesalers and
manufacturers. Once again the re
tailer would be able to stock the mer
handise his customers want; he
could rehire or put his clerks back
jn full time. Wholesalers and manu
facturers ,in turn, would employ more
people in their plants, in their offices
and on the road and more promptly
meet their obligations to their raw
materials processors, so that the ef
fects of the movement would
quickly felt by the entire business
cycle. I firmly believe that this plan,
put into force immediately, would re
store to employment this fall not one
million men hoped for as a result of
the National Industry Recovery Act,
but flully five times that number.
More people must be put to work
and wages must be increased if we
are to look for an improvement in
business conditions in the immediate
future. But. this cannot be achieved
without relaxing credit to the retail
dealer, based, of course, on the char
acter of the individual merchant.
Many retailers now find themselves
in a financial state bordering on in
solvency, an dit is the duty of the
government, as well a« manufactur
' ers and wholesalers ,to cooperate with
a view of maintaining them in busi
ness and not adding to the laree

CONTRACT BRIDGE
WRITTEN FOR CENTRAL PRESS
By E. V. SHEPARD
|| FAMOUS bridge teacher
a TEMPTING Hand
STRONG HANDS offer bidding
problems as well as weaker hands.
South was the dealer, with neither
side vulnerable. He held 4% quick
tricks, counting only first and second
trick winners, as should be done. His
cards should be worth 9 playing
tricks. It would be very unfortunate
if they did not win at least 8 tricks.
On the whole he felt that an opening
• bid of 2-Hearts was proper, open as
his long suit was When his part
ner responded with 3-Diamonds, of
course South signed off, by bidding
just game.

West felt certain of holding the
declarer down to game, perhaps he
might be able to defeat the contract.
The opening lead was the 7 of spades.
South won the trick with his K, so
as not to admit that he held solid
spades. Dummy’s Q of diamonds
won the second trick, and upon the
K of diamonds the declarer discarded
his J of . clubs. Dummy’s lowest
trumD was led. When East discarded

the wheels of prosperity moving again

LIBRARYDECLINES
Drop In July First That Has
Occurred In Borrow
ings In Months
For the first time in many months
a decline in circulation under the
corresponding month the previous
year was shown by the Perry library
in July, it was shown today in the
monthly report of Miss Mary Louise
McDearman, the librarian. Last month
circulation was 5,122, compared with
5,624 iji JUly, 1932, or 502 less. Much
the same condition was shown at the
Dunbar branch for Negroes, whore
circulation last month was 277, com
pared with 320 in July, 1932, or a
decline of 43. *-
One reason for the slump, the lib
rarian said, wAs the fact that July,
1932, had such, a large increase over
the year before that ,or a rise of 1,-
801, or 47.3 percent above July, 1931.

me a or spaacs tne declarer Knew
that he must lose just 3 truth p
tricks, but be had no losing side
tricks, so that further play was
senseless. South spreat* his cards,
claiming game, but no more.
It is instructive to note what would
happen to so strong a hand as South
held, provided his partner had been
one or the other of his two adver
saries. Suppose the cards of North
and West had been reversed. It is
probable that the opening bid of
2-Hearts would have been jumped to
4-Hearts. staling tliat the partner
held nothing of apparent value out
side trumps. While the declaring
side would make a small slam neither
of them should bid it, although the. .
Ace of diamonds would be the only
winner held against the solid hearts
and spades and clubs. There really
is nothing to the play of such solid
suits.
Assuming that West has just whal
was dealt him, and that the holdings
of North and East are to b<* ex
changed, the bidding will be Inter
esting. Two-No Trumps must be bid
over the opening bid of 2-Hearts.
When South returns to 3-Hearts.
North must bid 3-Spades. South
should bid 4-Spades, ending bidding.
The natural opening lead will be
a winning diamond. Before tomor
row think what East’s second lead
should be, in an attempt to defeat
the game contract at Spades. East
may lead a trump; he may make
qummy trump a second lead of dia
monds; East may make an atrocious
lead of a heart, or he may lead a
club. Can North go game against
any defense ouen to his opponents?
t It was pointed out tnat July, 1933,
i showed an increase of 1,299 over July
> 1931, two years ago. It was also stated
, that the pick-up in industry in local
- manufacturing establishments had
furnished more jobs and taken wb
the time of the workers to the ex
tent that they had less opportunity
now to read. It has been the opinion
of library officials for months that
the phenomenal increase in circula
tion was due to the fact that the peo
ple, without work to do, were using
their time reading.
At the Perry library proper borrow
ings in July consisted of 3,703 adult
volumes and 1,419 juveniles, and 4,-
, 961 volumes of fiction and 1,161 of
* non-fiction were taken out. New
books added during July numbered
i 26, or 20 adult and six juvenile vol
umes, of which 20 were fiction and
six non-ficrion.
; The active membership of the Perry
> library at the end of July was 3,887
5 of which 2,562 were adults and 1,325
r juveniles. The Dunbar branch hiad
; '916 registered borrowers, consisting
> of 195 adults and 721 juveniles.
i The average daily circulation for the
i Perry library in July was 204.8 vol
i umes and 22.6 percent was non-sic-
* tion. Both libraries had a combined
j circulation of 5,399, and the library
was open 25 days.
During July the Townsville branch
had a registration of 81 and a circula-
* tion of 61, while the branch at South
, Henderson had a registration of 442
■ and a circulation of 317 for the month
Both these branches are included in
the Perry library proper.
