pT. BARROW CLOSED up
 FOR WINTER
Steel Man R efurns from ! Flying Trip 10 Far
 Arctic Station

Snow was falling and tempera- ture was below freezing at Point Barrow week ago with the ice floes, still 20 miles away, closing in. said c. H. Barton, representa- tive of the Wheeling Steel Com pany of Ohio, who arrived from the north on a southbound PA plane yesterday.
 On a vacation trip and fulfill ing a lifelong ambition to see the Arctic" Barton flew into the most northern weather station with Ev- erett King, who is with the Pres byterian mission in the Territory. Two days were spent there with a trip being made over Will Rogers monument, 12 miles from Barrow.
 Supplies are laid in for a long winter, Barton said, with the last supply boat already arrived and gone, and a good catch of seal stored away. Last years food short age, he said was caused by the con- struction of several buildings which took natives away from sealing 10 construction jobs.
 Present white population of Barrow is IS, and in the Presby- terian Church, where Barton at tended Sunday services, he said there were five white men and 400 Eskimos. Still musing over the ori- gin of a small piece of transparent material used by the Eskimos for windows, Barton said, Well, I'll go back to Ohio now, satisfied with doing what I've always wanted to do, but I'll be back"
 Speaking of orders in steel in- dustries in the East, Barton said the defense program has increased tho need for steel so much that back-logs are filled until l943. He was very skeptical about the smash after it's all over,' saying that despite government efforts to prevent a business depression, this country will see the worst crash thought possible

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER I

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER l
 Until late today adverse aspects
 rule. It is a date of promise fo:
 labor, but the sign that is domin- ant seems to forecast difficulties
 starting with minor troubles that
 accentuated.
 HEART AND HOME: Women
 should be exceedingly cautious to-
 day when their judgment may be
 unreliable and their inclinations may veer toward the impractical |, In industry they may be subject
 to discrimination which they re- sent, but they should cultivate the mpersonal attitude which encour- ages patience. This is a configura- Ilsion which presages heartaches and lanxieties connected with men who |lare in uniform. It is imperative to lsmaintain faith and to look on the Upright side of things. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: With an outlook which promises amazing ac- tivity and prosperity, today may De uncertain for those who depend upon organized workers, In cer- tain manufacturing centers mater ials may be lacking, despite medi- ums of speedy transportation. Many changes in business methods and commercial customs will be evident. Abundant crops will cause problems of distribution. Wheat will be plen- tiful; over production offers seri- ous economic anxieties. 4
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Military training will be widely discussed as terms of enlistment are extended. The stars presage grave need of mobilizing man power that is. thor cughly accuctomed to the require ments of adequate defense on land, on sea and in the air. It is pre- dieted that the Battle of the At- lantic will not be won until next summer The United States Navy will be involved in the Caribbean, it is forecast, and critics unjustly will accuse the Administration of precipitating active conflict. The stars, however, seem to presage this as inevitable.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR S: It is indicated that the United States will occupy the Cape Verde Islands, holding them for num-

HOROSCOPE "The stars inclisse {,
 but do rot compel"
SUNDAY, AUGUST 3l

This is not an important day in planetary direction. Neptune is in threatening place, but benefic as- pect seems to presage good luck for the nation.
 HEART AND HOME: The clergy will be widely sought for advice and comfort. Churches will attract families, hitherto careless of re- ligious observances. War now will turn thoughts away from frivolous interests as boys and their sisters swerve their country in many ways. Women of all ages will be stirred toward aid in the nations time of emergency and will find balm in hard work. In planning for the autumn thrift is enjoined upon per- sons of every degree of prosperity. { BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Triumphs for builders of airplanes and de- stroyers are prognosticated. Gov ernment contracts will be complet- ed, despite delays through labor troubles and inventors will prove their genius in producing new de- vices of priceless value Next month the seers prophecy that manufacturers will achieve miracles. Transportation triumphs also will add to the glory of the democracy which has been compelled to con- centrate upon defense.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Antagon- isms due to differences of opinion regarding participation in the world war will slumber as the nation bravely faces perils that compel desperate measures of defense. Sup port in thought as well as deed must be given to the Government, astrologers declare, for they fore see severe tasks that require tre- mendous sacrifice by all the people. Criticism in press and on, the radio now should be avoided as demon- stration of the meaning of true democracy devolves upon the Unit ed States.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: France is to go through long pro- cess of change in which the lead- CTS of the divides nation achieve difficulties as well as temporary success. Astrologers predict that eventually freedom from Nazi dom nation will be gained through the persistent leadership of General De Gaulle. The coming month of Sep tember is to be 9 patchwork of events in which there will be many

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2

After the early morning, benefic aspects dominate today whic h should be fortunate for the Navy and aviation. Industry is subject to stimulating influences.
 HEART AND HOME: Brains rule hearts today Women should be &C., tive in practical matters. The con- figuration is helpful to brainwork- CTS and promises success for girls who turn to technical training. The long predicted induction of women into certain industries where they take the place of men called to the colors will be gradual, but this fall will prove the ability of many to use their hands as well as their brains. This is promising day for those who plan entrance, into col lege. .i
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS. Plenty of opportunities to make big money are forecast for the autumn. As business expands and new inven-. tions add to the temptations toward investment the speculative spirit will awaken. Despite Government efforts to discourage profiteering, there will be alluring ventures to attract capital. In the regular con- I.ercial enterprises healthy im- proyement will be general. Rise in wage standards will reduce the profit margins, but prosperity will be enjoyed by both employers and 
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Warming again is given of danger to democ- racies through radical or revolu- tionary ideas which will spread even to the United States. While flames among the ma jority, forms of rebellion will be encouraged by subversive thinkers Political leaders who advocate per- sonal views antagonistic to the Ad- will unwittingly aid destructive forces within the na- tion. The seers foretell surprising developments that menace govern ment.
 INTERNATIONAL A AFFAIR s q Aspects most unfortunate for all dictators are discerned. When they fight one another they prepare for their own extinction, astrologers declare. While the seers disagree about the exact times threatening to tyrants, they prophecy for Hit Ter an eclipse within the year. Sta lin must pay for his acts of ven- geance on those whom he eliminat- ed as well as for his severe meth ods as a ruler. Treachery and re-. bellion will breed among the pen- pie he has oppressed. Compulsory aid given him by the democracies will in the end prove a boomerang, 1t is prognosticated.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of gaicty ana good fortune. Expenditures should be curtailed, despite rising fortunes.
 Children whose birthdata it is probably will be sensitive and in- Luitive, possessed of extraordinary understanding and intelligence. They will command success and sven fame.
