Kennedy tried to resign at his last conference with the President. Roo- sevelt firmly refused to consider it.
 Who could I send over in your place, Joe?" he protested.
 Kennedy contended that he was not nee de d in London. Judging by the amout of work I turned in the last two months over there, y he argued, I'd say almost anyone could qualify for the job. You know like to keep busy, but all l did over there was to sit around apd watch the war
 But Roosevelt rejected this argu- ment and insisted that Kennedy think it over for couple of weeks 2 From his private remarks since then, Kennedy still seems determined to quit.
 Several very tempting business offers have been made to him; one from large newspaper chain which he helped refinance several years ago. He has made no final decis- ion, but returning to London def initely seems the last thing he in- tends to do.

ent danger to Gibraltar, who now want the United States to bail them out with a hundred million dollars.
 Confidential military reports from spain, however, indicate three things: 1st, the Spanish people are so fed up with three years of bloody civil war that they won't fight in any foreign war not of their chooS- ing; 2nd, Spain is so badly defend- cd that her harbors would be easy targets for the British fleet; 3rd, the Spanish people actually are near revolt, which is the secret reason why Franco wants the hundred mil- lion. Without food, the old Loyalist government might come back again.
 In other words it looks as if the aareer clique inside the State De- partment is still trying to keep in power the man they secretly back ed during the Spanish civil war.
 NOTE-It is unlikely that Hitler wants Spain to come into the war yet. Spain has been too valuable IS a neutral through which sup plies, foreign agents, and even foo<' could be smuggled. Much of Spain's eood shortage comes because France used wheat to pay for arms he re- 9eived from Germany.
 Probability is that if the British put arms in the hands of Franco's growing political opposition, they would have an army in Spain which would completely neutralize the Axis there. The Loyalists are still ready to fight, but against Franco, not for him.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29
 This is an uncertain day in planetary direction, but benefit as- poets dominate. It is favorable to the advancement of ones plans. Construction work is well directed, but it may slow down under this configuration.
 Heart and Home: Women are fairly fortunate under this con- figuration which encourages them to sensible, practical interests. Ar tificial manners will be discarded with cosmetics in coming months when service to humanity will overcome the self-centered traits common among modern girls Nurs- ing and the care of children will be studied. Under a new order of things those who pursued pleasure will follow high callings in which service and sacrifice are necessary. Again the simple life will be sought of necessity by many who will find happiness in it.
 Business Affairs Financial pron- lems will be met by many small businessman at this time wheh big corporations are engaged on government contracts. Unusual eco- homie conditions will develop aid foresight will be necessary to avoid serious difficulties. Farmers are to benefit through extraordinary de- mands upon them for the products of the earth. Vegetables are to Be kept fresh for the man in camps and on battleships, by a new pro- cess that brings profit to agricui- turists.
 National Issues: The discipline necessary for preparedness is to arouse stubborn opposition among persons who preach the perils Of dictatorship. Recognition of the fact that the world has changed, and with it the United States, IS imperative in the proper readjust- ments as thousands of American young men are withdrawn from civil life. Again women will assume important positions in the offices and shops of the country. It is to be remembered that wars are re- sponsible for removal of women S industry from the home.
 International Affairs: Uprisings and conflicts will disturb many small nations as the network of intrigue is spread over the entire globe While dictators are plotting against the peace of nations that desire to remain undisturbed, in- ternal troubles are brewing in Ger many, Italy and Spain Disease and starvation are to become means of preventing the consummation Of overpowering ambitions.

that showing when he was bat

note came from Manager Del
