NORWAY'S ANNIVERSARY"

What stands out most strkingy from the stua- ton in Norway after year of Naz domination is the fact sbstantated by every report from that nation that Norwegians united than ever before and that Norway is entirely unconquered and unbroken.
 On April g, first anniversary of the German invasion, Norwegian Mnisher Morgensterne was able to say in Washington:
 Tn spite of the tragedy which has befalen our nation and beautiful land and which this day fills with peculiar bitterness, feel deeply grateful that leaders and our people from the first moment chose the path of honor and resis- tance; that today Norway is definitely and promin- ently amongst the nations which did not submit but challenged the aggressor and fought-and fights now-for freedom, popular government and inter national decency.
 Not only the free Norwegians abroad but hard-pressed countrymen at home, who stand ing up magnfcently against the Nazi terror realize with deep satisfaction that we are on the right and winning side in this world of liberty the most momentous crusade in human history. AS day follows night of good will in all lands shall repe the onslaught of the powers of barbarism and darkness against all that civilization means and is.
 Our heart goes out in this hour to the people of Norway under the iron heel of the oppressors, but whose spirit is unbroken and marches It goes out UO 6TlllSH aIQ lISpueQ leduer ana all their allies who today with unsurpassed valor bearing the brunt of battle. Our gratitude and admiration go out to the President Of the United States, who with extraordinary vision for years has perceived and understood the deadly threat facing the world today and who with unequaled clarity and force has given expression to the thoughts and aspirations of free and women everywhere"
 In spite of the destruction and violence, want and privation which followed war into Norway, people of all parties and of all social levels are de- termined that Morse civilization shall not go under This determination is reflected in countless ways, when the entire Supreme Court of Norway re- signs with declaration that since the German authorities refuse to recognize the judicial power of review granted by the Constitution of Norway, is useless for conscientious judges to remain in the Court; as when the seven Bishops of the Church of Norway send manifesto to the NaI puppet- head of the Church and Education Department say ing "the Church can never be silenced We feel it

Some fairly famous people have lived at 142- General Clusters widow, Stephen Baux who laid out Central Park and Oliver Herford, an artist and writer. No. 142 is five-door walkup with wide staircases. Three fireplaces are in every apartment, and mantels are of imported Italian marble. It was a very fancy spot in it's day.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline

WEDNESDAY. APRIL 16

| WEDNESDAY, APRIL l6
 Mingled good and adverse plane tary influences are active today Labor is subject to evil portents. Danger from unwise leadership is indicated.
 Heart and Home: The stars smile on women today. It is a time when they will gain atten- tion in the realm of romance, as well as in business and government positions. It is a lucky day for weddings. Girls may succeed in their ambitions under this con- figuration which presages adjust ment to work made necessary by the absence of men under defense mobilization Foresight should en- able women of all ages to conform to changing social and economic conditions.
 Business Affairs: Building will engage great numbers of men all through the summer months AS prosperity continues money will circulate among all classes. Gov ernment funds will pour out in an increasing stream as spring ad- vances. Efficiency will be demandL ed of employees, and training of young men and women will become urgent. Summer trade schools will. attract large classes. "A
 National Issues: Those who read the stars discern portents of a long war period which will necessi- tate protracted maintenance Uf vast naval, military and air fore es. Inevitably because of defeTlsei needs the militaristic spirit will prevail. This means alteration fof certain democratic usages as"au-' thority must be delegated to off, cers commanding large numbers of men. National unity of purpose will grow stronger and more evi-' dent in answer to menacing ges- lures from Europe and Asia. sF5io
 International Affairs: Activity of: the United States in the Pacific is presaged. Japan is to present provocation for stern measures by the United States government. Di- plomacy in the Orient will be diff -' ficult to interpret, for the stars indicate secret moves and insincere assurances. Association as an Axis power is to prove ultimately disas- trous to Japan, but at present it will impart to the government in Tokyo a dangerous spirit of ag- gression. #
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of ad- vancement and happiness. It is we'll to be on guard against fraud and deception. I
 Children born on this day will be magnetic and possessed of un- usual talents. Girls will be popu- lar and happy marriages are fore- told.

On the same day Representative Bill Byron of Maryland was killed in the Eastern Airlines crash, Sen- ator Ralph O. Brewster of Maine had to go to Boston to make a speech. Undismayed by the fate of his Congressional colleague, Brew ster took plane from Washington to Boston.
 He was scheduled to return next day, also by air. But a blizzard came up, and when he got as far as New York he found that all planes on the line he was travelling were grounded. Only one plane was un- dertaking the flight to Washington -an Eastern Airlines ship.
 Despite the storm, despite the fact that this was the line which had just suffered the tragic misEp. Brewster climbed aboard. There Was no one else who had so much dars

 Synthetics are still another field for replacements. but they have not been popular and only dire necessity will make their use general.
 NOTE: The price of cod liver oil, leading source of natural vitamin D, has scared from $22 to SIS barrel. Formerly most of it came from Nor way.

predicts that new construction this
year will total about SIC. 200 900 900
as a result OF increased residential
building in addition to the active
defense-plant building. II will be
so per cent ahead OF 1910 and the
greatest since 1929.
Realty circles say that while an
increase in residential construc-
ton is evident, the volume is not
large because building supply costs
are up more than 10 per cent since
the war started while rents are up
on an average Of only 20 per cent
which does not act as an offset.
A Wall street oldtimer SAYS the
sluggish stock market price action
is not because OF Washington tax

the Nazi break through Russian

tracts due TO the work OF the in
