There has come to the editors desk a little pamph-

author is Reich Minister Dr. Goebbels But we read

The reply seems to be: Yes, are breaking

paratively helpless people, but what of it? England
has been doing the same for centuries.
DR. Goebbels, Nazi Director of Propaganda and

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 80

This last day of the month is ex-
tremely adverse in it's aspects. There
is a sign supposed to accent agrees
siveness and to encourage dictator
ial impulses. This may be strong in
it's influences in this country as well
as in Europe. Labor is under the
most unfortunate planetary direc-
ton in which leaders may reflect
the tendency to rule ruthlessly
Heart and Home: The stars af-
feet the choice Of colors in dress or
interior decoration. Light blue, the
lucky color of Libra subjects, is sup
posed to assure harmony of spirit
with the material. In choosing the
autumn wardrobe it may be remem-
bered that reds suggest the marian
influence. Subjects of air signs at
tain the reputation of being we'll
dressed and the Libra women enjoy
success in artistic taste.
Business Affairs: This is a day
which fortunately may be curtailed
by lf-holidays, for the stars seem
to presage business obstacles. Labor
troubles may interfere with building
and with shipping. Avoidance of ar
guments is advised, for quarrels and
isagreements are fomented under
this sway.
National Issues: Jupiter rising at
Washington, d. c., indicates IN
crease of the prestige of the United
States as a world power. Governs
ment expenditures will reach a new
high as preparedness is pushed, on
an extensive scale. Enlistments In
army and navy will be large and
training for service thorough. While,
the position of Jupiter should give
assurance that peace will be MAIN
tanned and the situation of Great
Britain much improved, there are
portents of sudden moves on the
chess board of Europe. Thus wisdom
dictates that the United States be-
