SENSE OF TIMING

There is a good deal to knowing when to turn on the heat and bore in as every prize fighter, successful politician good author and of destiny knows
 Mussolini thought he knew when to throw his weight around in the European war. It was just when France was the point of collapse and Eng land was to fall in a month or two He was wrong.
 Until he passed up his golden opportunity to finish England last June, Hitler was master of timing He knew exactly when to take Poland, when to seize Norway. when crush Holland Belgium and France Before that he knew the propitiouS moment for reenterng the Rhineand for anschussing Aus tria for plucking Czechoslovakia away from i'm potent democratic allies. He knew enough to send his arpanes and to Spain to help Franco forge one more European totaltaran state.
 England's timing of her successful thrust into Libya was perfect. It while the Greeks were punshing the Italians in Albania and just after the Italian navy had been dealt death blow at Tarano.
 Frnklin D Roosevelt has shown himself master of the same art lie knew enough to wait last Fall until Wendell Wlkie had talked himself hoarse, then shot The crusade" full of holes with three crushing speeches All the Republicans could reply with was the line of which the American public was already pretty thoroughly sick and tired
 Even given the tremendous advantage of hind sight as we look back upon the Roosevelt foreign policy of the past few eventful years nobody is able to point to single mistake Nobody that is except that interesting museum piece from Massachusetts, Congressman Tlnkham. Oh yes, and Hamilton Fish.
 If our President retains his remarkable foresight, and there is no reason to believe he will not, the naticn will continue to throw it's considerable weight when and where it will do the most good for the denocracies and for ourselves.

EARLY TO BED

Judging by the caucus of House Democrats, freshmen members won t .e surprised If, any day now, they are confronted with a ukase by party leaders to wash behind the
 44s and wear their overshoes Tn the rain
 High note of the caucus was a fatherly admonition to the young .Jers" to go to bed early at night
 The advice was given by veteran Representative Hatton w. Summers, chairman of the Judiciary Commit tee, in the course of a lecture to the first-termers on how to con- duct yourselves during the current crisis In his day the 65-year -old Texan was not known as an early to-beader.
 You can't give your full energies to the important problems before Congress unless you get plenty of sleep at night" Summers preached solemnly. If you boys want to be successful and do a good job, my advice to you is to stay away from the bright lights
 Nothing was said about tucking the fledgling politicos in but there was a howl when Representative Dick Kleberg of Texas reminded Summers that he might profit by his own advice. I've seen you more than once tripping the light fan tastic late at night with a pretty blonde, Hatton.7 ribbed Kleberg.
 Bachelor Summers face turned the color of Stop" signal and he said no more.
 NOTE-On the serious side, the Democrats decided to answer every Republican speech against Presi- dent Roosevelt. This decision was reached after Representative Alfred Bulwinkle of North Carolina point ed out how the COP were "casti- 2aJlng Roosevelt and were sitting nY and letting them get away with it."

Cincinnati Enquirer
 At the outbreak of the in Europe there were many speculations what might be the eventual status of the newspaper in competition with the radio as a of public information in the Unit ed States By now certain tendencies are more or less settled
 One of these is the disappearance of the extra compared to newspaper practice in World War l. But this has been to develop and intensifly truer value of the newspaper In the first place there has of necessity been born far better cooperation be- tween the newspapers and the radio broadcasts. The news broadcasts originate in great part from the efforts of the great gathering organizations created, developed, and maintained by the news papers.
 Again such is the difference between and eye that the details by which check on the value and relative importance of news narratives appear authoritatively the printed word with the possibility of comparing other versions compiled in some regular completeness in each newspaper issue.
 There have been a number of instances in which newspaper correspondents, actually eyeWtneSses of events and military actions have been able to pro- ceed to places not subject to censorship Those stories have been of the first magnitude because of their known veracity.
 And however effective the spoken word of such masters of oratory Churchill and the President, close examination of the full text printed has revealed values not evident even when reiterated oy instantaneous transcription It is by the printed word most of us are used to form our sober judg- nents.

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not com,peW
SATURDAY, JANUARY 25

Benefic aspects dominate today which should be most fortunate for labor and industry The morning hours are suspicious for merchants and manufacturers.
 Heart and Home. The evening is most promising for women young and old. Girls may find it an aus picious date for meeting eligible young men. Whirlwind romances will multiply as the Air Corps, the Army and the Navy absorb the youth of the nation. This is an suspicious date for entertaining men in uniform. Dances and din ners will bring friends together. Beneath gayety will be much gray ity, as the war clouds increasingly menace the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
 Business Affairs: Heads of big business will prove their practical patriotism in many acts of gen. erosity and helpfulness. Factory production is to make great record for the first month in 194l. There is sign presaging for labor the most thorough and enthusi- astic cooperation in defense con- tracts. Behind armed forces the United States is to prove that it has the greatest of organized in dustrieS.
 National Issues: Diplomacy is, to achieve victory for the United States in its policy of aiding Great Britain. The fact that the cause of democracy must triumph now will be realized in a manner that emphasizes the responsibility of this country. While there viii be no flag-waving or martial demon stration the real business of de- fense will be carried on with su- perb efficiency, the stars are be- lieved to indicate.
 International Affairs: The Bal kans continue under sinister signs which seem to presage seething un- rest and lack of loyalty for the Nazi dictator. Russia secretly ex- ercises power over nations long of Slavic traditions and understand ing. This year may mark defin- ite change of policy on the part of Stalin whose pacts with Hitler, secret or otherwise will not be lasting and may lead to grave dis cord.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a fortunate year. Gain from inheritance is fore told. Travel may be impeded through unusual causes.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be logical and mentally well-balanced Intuitive, practical and steadfast, they have the quail ties that promise success and hap piness.
