SATURDAY. OCTOBER IS

SATURDAY, OCTOBER IS ts
 Many aspects are active and conflicting under this planetary government. The evening is more fortunate than morning or mid- day.
 HEART AND HOME: While this configuration prevails there may be gloom in the family, since ap- prehensions and perplexitles are likely to assail parents who look forward to winter of many fin ancial problems. Pluto is in & threatening aspect which may be read as presaging destructive forces affecting social and econom- ic programs. There is good sign for industry and the evening eis suspicious for informal parties!
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Self-stf- ficiency in communities will be sought as war emergencies teach methods of conserving resources and cultivating opportunities as surfing independence. Despite warn . ings, money-spending will continue to be too generous among wage earners. As the cost of living rises the wise will study economies in business management and will pre- pare for a future which now of fers many threatening possibilities due to war drains which by mid- winter will be tremendous.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: As unfore- seen events contradict seemingly inevitable war developments, the United States Government will be forced to forget many promises 0 the people. Secret enemies within the nation will foment trouble and cause criticism which will feed propaganda experts in Germany. As the autumn advances. however,, there will be gradual progress .tof ward unity of opinion regarding Washington policies. Increased der fense production will have re- assuring effect upon all the pe0s pie.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR &: Because the year 1941 is ruled by Cancer the emphasis in the world war is upon water The English Channel, the Mediterranean, the Suez Canal and Russia's riverss All have been prominent in the cons flict which must be victorious in the Battle of the Atlantic. The Pacific is to be the scene of his- tory-making events. Leading as- trologers point out that the first part of the year was ruled by Scorpio whose influence when joined to that of Cancer would af- feet Axis plans, causing changes.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of good luck in finance, love and friend ship. Pleasant surprises in tine form of unexpected profits are forecast.
 Children born on this day probs' ably will be serious, prudent ~af- fectionate and intuitive. They should have great popularity and lasting success in life. -s.z=--sz7

If you will turn to page 1896 ot the current (l94O-4l) issue of Who's Who. you will find a very Illuminating comm entary on Charles A. Lindbergh.
 As leading champion of isola- tionism, the principal tenet of the ex-air hero is love of the U.S.A America First is the symbol and dogma of his political credo In his recent Fort Wayne. Ind. speech he declared, T have no motive in mind other than the welfare Of my country and my civilization. But on page 1896 of Who's Who Lindberghs self-penned biography tells a different story.
 This is what he says: Home, Illiece Island. Penvenan, France
 Illiece Island is in Nazi- occupied France. Nearby is an island be- longing to Dr. Alexis Carrel, with whom Lindbergh collaborated in making their so-called mechanical heart. Carrel is now in occupied France and is working in coopera- Lion with the Petain government which is playing hand-in- glove with 1 the NaziS.
 Lindbergh has not been abroad since he returned in 1889. Why he still gives the little island in Nazi-controlled France as his nome" even at this late date is not explained in the biography, ir which he carefully lists all his achievements and decorations-ex. lcept the one presented him by Hit Her. s,.s .s. 2 NOTE-Severai- days prior tt Lindbergh's Fort Wayne speech Berlin shortwave. broadcasts to tn; I
