Rural Job Development Act May Stem City Riots

Washington debates a plan to move jobs from urban centers to rural areas through tax incentives. Senate sponsors claim the Rural Job Development Act would create at least 10 new jobs per project, require local hiring, and favor low income workers, aiming to reduce urban unrest by stimulating rural industry. The measure, S. 2134, would target manufacturing and related sectors with strict eligibility and noncompetition clauses. Senate leaders urge hearings as proponents argue the long-term tax benefits outweigh initial losses.

South correctly reasons West holds four diamonds and hearts, then finesses clubs and spades, but a spade shift seals a six down while three notrumps is possible for gain.
