HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline "a
 but do not compel"
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2

Benefic aspects rule powerfully today. There is a sign read as in- dicating mental activity and clear vision regarding what is best for the people of this country Good news regarding government plans for preparedness and expansion is prognosticated. '4o A
 Heart and Home: Women are un- der sway that should be helpful in household affairs. Those in pub lie work will find themselves sub merged beneath the activities of men but only for time. Mothers should have intuition under this planetary rule. They should real- ize that their sons and daughters must be prepared for a new order of things in which they will be builders of a world that is meta morphoSed by war and in which Americans have tremendous tasks.
 Business Affairs: This is an inn portant day in it's great potentiali- ties, the United States is to have period of prosperity, although in- creased taxation will be of moTe than temporary existence Neces Sity of long continued maintenance of armed forces is foretold ana that means growing expenses for government, already overweight ed by prodigious national debt.x
 National Issues: Reading of ftffe horoscopes of the two candidates for President shows that they have certain similaritieS which fit them for leadership For the Republican the stars indicate ability to accom- plish great things as a power be- hind the throne rather than on the throne. It seems, in any event, that he will be foremost in public affairs and will render distin- gulShed service to the nation. Dan ger to the health of the man who is made Chief Executive of the na- tion is foretold.
 International Affairs: The cycle from 1914 to 1943 is seen by as- trologers as period of travail for the world. The birth of a new age is taking place. The British Empire is to be transformed, but not van- pushed, and with the United States will keep alive the finest tradi- tions of civilization. Closer rela- tions between the English-speaking peoples will cause such intensive activity among subversive interests that there may be serious troubles for time in the United States.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of many tests. Caution should be constantly exercised, especially in domestic af- fairs. s7 l Children born on this day prob- ably will be endowed with artistic talents and exceptional intelligence They should win success in what ever they undertake.
