HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
WEDNESDAY, MAY 21

The planetary government for to- day is not important, but adverse aspects dominate. It is a date when there may be illustrations and dis appointments.
 Heart and Home This should be a favorable date for carrying out constructive ideas about changes in the furnishing of the home or in its management. Work for every member in the family should be apportioned, it is emphasized. Self help is to be even more necessary in housekeeping than ever before, the seers predict. Girls should find this an suspicious time for accept ing romance when personified in a worthwhile suitor The stars smile on women of all ages today. ,ef
 Business Affairs Amusement en- terprises of every sort will profit this season. Fairs, races and all outdoor attractions will draw crowds, for the impulse to seek re- creation will be compelling to a large class of Americans. This is a day when it is well to be on guard against deception and mis- representation. Prosperity will in spire many confidence men and dishonets spectators to get money by crooked means. Mining is to attract attention to prospecting for rare ores of value in the various manufacturing processes.
 National Issues: Censorship of newspapers and radios will be ad- vocated as opponents to defense measures gain hearings that distort facts and motives connected with Government policies. There is , a configuration which seems to irldi- cate employment of many subvers- i've speakers who supplement print ed propaganda that is intended to foment distrust and to SOW the seeds of revolution. Freedom of the press will be used as a means to undermine the democracy.
 International Affairs: Specula- tion concerning the true relation of Germany and Russia will be widespread as Stalin and Hitler make perplexing gestures. Although Hitler is believed to have designs on Russia the stars seem to indi- cate that he will be completely out witted in the end by the willy and secretive Stalin. Both men, how ever, are soon to close their car eers and incidentally to lose their lives, according to certain astrolo- gers.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of hap piness and prosperity undisturbed by the menace of war. Unexpected gains and heavy expenditures are forecast.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be artistic magnetic in personality and fond of travel. They may be intense in their emotions and determined in their ambiti0ns

TALKS ON STRIKES
Al ANNUAL MEET

"The unjustified and unwarranted
strikes in defense industries through
out the land shock and astound u.s.
w. G. Wysor, general manager OF
Southern States Cooperative, declar-
ed Thursday morning, March 20, at
the joint meeting of the Virginia
Institution of Cooperation and the
annual convention of the Virginia
Farm Bureau Federation at Hotel
Jefferson.
"The determination on the part of
labor leaders to seize the opportunity
presented by national crisis to in
dulge in a profiteering feast gives
US acute concern for the future of
America" the speaker continued. eve
ask the President, we ask Congress,
we ask our fellow Americans how
long labor union leadership will be
permitted to sabotage the defense
program of this nation. Today in this
country the freedom of labor itself
is at stake, as we'll as the freedom
of all of u.s."
In discussing the Wagner Labor
Relations act, union labor, the pre-
paredness program, and what he
termed as "union labor's insistence

opportunity to work for their own
cooperative organizations, to which
they supply the business that requires
labor and for which they supply the
capital. In other words, they object
to a labor monopoly.
"In my own experience with labor
unions, the outstanding issue in doz-
ems of collective bargaining instances
has invariably been the insistence of
union leaders on a closed shop, on
the unions having a monopoly.
"In plain terms the issue is just
this: Shall the labor union decide who
may work in the cooperative's plants,
or shall the farmers who own and use
the business make that decision? It
seems to me that in farmers coopera
tive business organizations we must
be free to select the men who work
for us in our plants, in our offices,
and in our retail units. If we can
not hold that power, we haven't much
left,
GAS farmers organizations we
have been, we are and we shall con-
tinue to be, willing to bargain fairly
with organized labor. When, how
ever, labor union leaders presume to
select our employees, we lose the pow
er to run our own business. There
we draw the line.
SIN conclusion want to cite case
involving this fundamental issue
which right now confronts Virginia
farmers and is costing them large
sums of money every day. Operat-
ing in the city of Washington is a
cooperative, Southern States Market
ing Cooperative, through which thous-
ands of farmer members in Virginia,
including many of you in this ROOM
are marketing eggs.
"In your egg grading and storage
warehouse in Washington you have
Is or 20 employees. Last Monday
four days ago, under persuasion Of
the union leadership, these employees
walked out on a strike. The strike
is still in progress. The union j:
picketing the plant. Union represen
tatives follow every truck load of out
going eggs to persuade the custom
ers who ordinarily buy your eggs no
to buy them because you are unfair
to organized labor
"The issue in this strike is very
clear and very plain. There is bu
