 The other proposed changes also have logic in their favor An assistant secretaryship would be set up the Treasury to deal with accounting, debt service and the Treasurer's present duties.

In Labor the obso- lescence of the commssionership of immigration IS recognized, though Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization has performed the necessary functions since the consolidation of the two services in 1933 Six District Commissioners are eliminated The administrator of the Civil Aeronautics Author ity is made more strictly executive officer and the regulatory and quasiudica functions centered in the fve-member CAA board-a possible source of controversy.

 The changes discussed above were included in reorganization proposal submitted to Congress by the President on April 9 If Congress does not take action to disapprove the plan within 60 days the new order becomes law
 On April II the President offered another re- organization proposal which would put the Civil Aeronautics Authority, now an independent agency, in the Commerce Department; abolish the Air Safety Board and assign it's function of investigating air. plane accidents to the Civil Aeronautics Board; transfer the Weather Bureau from the Department of Agriculture to the Department of Commerce; shift the Food and Drug Administration from the Agri- culture Department to the Federal Security Admin isration and transfer to Interior from Agriculture those activities of the Soil Conservation Service re- lating to soil and moisture conservation on lands already under the jurisdiction of the Interior De- partment.

 In Alaska the Biological Survey the AL aska Game Commission. The Territorys No l and No 3 resources fish and furs, thus will be admin istered by single bureau, the new Fish and Wild life Service Since Fisheries moved over from the Department of Commerce to the Department of the Interior in a previous reorganization, the new change will not be drastic.
 The President in his reorganization mes sage that the natural areas operation of these two bureaus frequently coincide and their activities are interreated and similar in character Consoli- daton will eliminate duplication of work facilitate coordination of programs and improve service to the public"

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compep
WEDNESDAY, APRIL F

Benefic aspects rule with power today which should be exception ally fortunate. Men of large af- fairs should profit although labor continues under a sway encourag- ing antagonism in certain indus tries. Spread of propaganda to awaken class consciousness is in dicated.
 Heart and Home: This is day when the head of the household is likely to be generous and able to understand family ambitions to improve the place of residence. It is an suspicious date for request ing money for repairs and refur- nishing. Women will be happiest in domestic activities today which is not lucky for public work. It is not suspicious for love. affairs. Girls should concentrate upon their educational pursuits.
 Business Affairs: Trade and com merce should flourish under this configuration. While new projects are not well directed by the stars, merchants and manufacturers will flourish. On both the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts industry will prove most fortunate in ambitious development. In the early autumn mild slump is indicated, but the year will be extremely profitable.
 National Issues: Racial and re- ligious prejudices will be of lit tie account in political campaigns. Universal economic problems will overshadow all other interests. Peace advocates will gain influence as danger of world conflict in volving this country is recognized.
 International Affairs: Expansion of interest in Turkey as factor in European contests for power IS prognosticated. The end of this year is likely to be fortunate for this Eastern country, although the loss of leading men is prognosti- cated. India is to find in the com ing summer that the long agitation for freedom from British rule is to result in novel concessions.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of pleas ure as well as progress in social and financial matters. They should not make changes.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be outstanding in char acter, strong in mentality and gen. orally successful. They may be ex- tremely popular in social connec- tions.
