FEW ELIGIBLE AS
Scrapping of Crowns Leaves
Woeful Scarcity Eligible
Mates for Daughters of
Old World Monarchs
LONDON (AP) The wrapping of
ciowns, which bu been going on for
20 years, hu left a lugubrious situa
tion among the marriageable prm
cesses of Europe.
There are two or three dozen of
these daughters of old world royalty
who are eligible to be wives of kings
or of princes who will some day be
monarchs, but the marriage balance
sheet brings tears to the eyes of these
'young princesses.
Only the globe-trotting but non
marrying Prince of Wales, ' who Is
within sight of the British throne,
and Prince Frederick of Denmark are
on the debit side of the marriage
ledger.
To be sure there are also the crown
prince cousins, Michael of Rumania
and Peter of Jugoslavia. But both
are but reserves for the distant iu
ture.
New Tasks for Prince
Princes in other countries are
either married or vacationing abroad
In rather permanent fashion, living
off the Jewels ot another era.
Some of them, moreover, are in
Paris and London driving taxles, act
ing as interpreters for travel com
panies, or even pegging shoes.
The recent marriage of Rumania's
Eeana brought Into silhouette the
aad state of affairs. Her two sisters,
older than ehe, married kings, but
she accepted an archduke without a
dukedom.
Eleven Crowns Left
Only eleven crowns remain in Eu
rope, those of Great Britain, Italy,
Belgium, Holland, Bulgaria, Jugosla
via, Rumania, Albania, Denmark, Nor'
way and Sweden. The crowns of Ger
many, Russia, Turkey, Greece. spam
and Portugal evaporated before the
heat of modern politics.
The last princess to cross the
threshold of throne rooms before the
doors slammed were King Albert's
daughter, Marie Jose of Belgium who
won the hand of Prince Humbert ox
Italy, and the tatter's sister Olovan
na who Bulgarlzed her name to Iban
na when her marriage to King Bcrla
paired up the only bachelor throne
of Europe.
Princess Astrld of Sweden preceded
Maria Jose, marrying the latter's
brother, Prince Leopold. Astrld should
some day alt aa the queen of Leopold
III while her elster-ln-law Is destined
to share with Humbert the throne of
the Mussolini governed peninsula.

NEW BID SYSTEM
By CLAIRBORNE FOSTER.
NEW YORK (AP) -Those vlayere
who cannot spend the time to be
come experts are the prlnc:??J bene
ficiaries of the simplified system
of bidding contract bridge which was
adopted at the first general conven
tion of bridge teachers in New York
It Is really a combination system.
the beat features of a number of
well known systems being utilized
In these new rules which should re
move many obstacles for Infrequent
players.
First known as the "unlversay.,
It la now called the "official" sys
tem, being sponsored by nearly all
well-known bridge teachers with the
exception of Ely Culbertson.
The changes brought about in
this new system are not oomplex,
Under Its rules, a one bid shows
two and one-half tricks.
A two bid shows a stronger hand
of three and one-half to four and
one-half tricks. A two bid Is not
a demand bid, but requirements for
a partner helping are considerably
less.
A three bid Is a demand bid and
the partner must respond. This
means a hand that la probably i
game hand with practically no as
sistance from the partner.
Heretofore, under old systems, such
as the Cavendish, a two bid Is the
stronger bid. This Is changed under
the "official" system. A two bid
is stronger than a one bid. and
three bid la etronger than a two
bid. And a three bid Is the only
one that Is a demand bid.
An optional provision of this sys
tem Is an artificial two-club game
demand bid made only as an origi
nal bid.
The popularity of this new system,
of course, remains contingent upon
Its fast spreading introduction in
bridge tournaments.
There Is little doubt but tnst it is
welcome to the novloe player who
has not had the opportunity to
rn the more aubtle points of the
game.

How to train BABY'S
BOWELS
Babies, bottle-fed or breast-fed,
with any tendency to be constipated,
would thrive if they received dnily
half a teaspoonful of this old family
doctor's prescription for the bowel.
That is one sure way to train tiny
bowels to healthy regularity. To
avoid the fretfulness, vomiting,
crying, failure to gain, and other ilu
of constipated babies.
Dr. Caldwell's Svrup Pepsin is
good for any baby, t'or this, you htm
he word of a famous doctor. Forty.
Krven years of practico taught him
just what babiea need to keep theif
little bowels active, regular; keep
little bodies plump and heallhy. Tot
Dr. Caldwell specialized in the treat
ment of women and little ones. He
attended over 3300 births without
loss of one mother or baby.

WITH 0. S. EFFORT
IN VIRGIN ISLES
COPENHAGEN (AP) Some sharp
criticism' cf the low state to which
the Virgin Islands have fallen since
their sale by Denmark to the United
Statee has been heard here.
The chief plaint la that the United
States has failed to fulfill a moral
obligation to compensate the Island
ers for thlr loss of the bay rum In
dustry through enactment of prohi
bition laws or to provide some other
means of livelihood.
"President Hoover recently called
the Virgin Islands the poor house of
the United States, but nothing ef
fective is being done to prevent their
becoming a pauper's churchyard,"
said Hans Nielsen, chairman of a
number of parliamentary committees,
who recently returned from a trip
there.
"When Denmark agreed to sell the
Islands to America we believed an
era 6f prosperity waa at hand for
them. But the ever growing unem
ployment has been catasthroplc."
