HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY, NOV. u

This IN not an important day
In planetary government. There
10 a fair sign for persons in au-
thority, but they may be easily
deceived under this configura-
ton.
Heart and Home: During this
sway the aged may suffer ILL.,
ness or dependency. The stars
threaten persons past the prime
OF life. In the family. special care
and kindness should character-
lie daily associations. The stars
warn that home should be the
center of interest, since there
are evil portents for the future
when the full meaning of war
will be felt by many persons
now unaware of its real signifi-
canoe. Each days joys should
Be enjoyed TO the fullest extent.
Business Affairs: Demand for
government bonds will be stimu-
lated at this time. Discussion
Of initiation possibilities with at
tendant developments will spur
patriotic men and women TO for
get tax burdens and to invest In
government securities. Heavy
losses through fire are foretold.
Sabotage 10 suspected.
National Issues: support of
Russia in the determined fight
against Hitler will continue to b.

ment to undermine the enthusi-
Rsm of Americans who are work.

PULSE OF

DEPLORES "ONE MAN
GOVERNMENT" IN L. s.

Editor, The Times: So Ger
mond Ia scared that Hitler will
invade the U. 8. without a navy
or transports and stick us into
his bag7 Calm yourself. Hitler
has not yet proved that he can
invade England, and 5000 miles
of ocean are a different propo-
sition than % miles. And what
would our navy and air force
be doing? Looking on, I sup
pose. Even the Washington war
mongers cannot work up a scare
with that fairy tale.
The editorial page of the Sat
urday Evening Post, Oct. is,
under THE Eight and Fourteen"
(points) quoted an interview of
Churchill on his return TO Brit
ain from the Roosevelt confer
ence. Said Churchill:
THE United states and Great
Britain do not now assume that
there will never be any more
war again. On the contrary, We
intend to take ample precsution
to prevent its renewal in any
period we can foresee by effec-
lively disarming the guilty
nations"
Please notice that we"
Roosevelt pledged U. S. military
aid to invade Europe; overpower
and disarm Great Britain's OPP
ponents, and then police Europe
so no rearming can take place,
while Britain and the u. S. keep
their arms and dictate oondi-
tons. whether others like them
or not. This is dictatorship, pure
and simple, isn't it?
Our constitution has given the
power TO declare and make war
TO congress, and not TO the presi-
dent. Roosevelt is an intended
dictator right now by pledging
military aid without the consent
Of congress, contrary to the con-
stitution. Germond need not
dream of Hitler as a dictator for
he has one in Washington.
The constitution makes the
president the executive to carry
out the orders OF congress. but
Roosevelt gives orders what
laws congress shall pass. He is
a dictator right now. We have
a "one man government. and
not a democracy. This is fun
dsmentsl 10 all Of us. and every
reader should resent having our
democracy turned into a dicta-
torship night now.

MAJOR BLUNDER
APPEARS POSSIBLE

National Mediation Board
members believe privately that
capital and labor will make
major blunder II they destroy
this agency for settling indus
trial disputes. Industry dislikes
the board because it was created
by F. d. r. to prevent anti
strike legislation. The c. /. o.
members resignation reveals
their enmity.
The two decisions which pre-
cipitated charges of incompe-
tency and inconsistency involved
the Federal shipbuilding Com
pany at kearney, N. j.. and the
captive mines dispute. In the
first the board invoked the
''u n on maintenance clause"
which provides that members as
of a certain date must continue
paying dues to keep their jobs.
Industry interpreted this as
modified cloesd shop. and balk-
ed. forcing the Navy to take
over. In the captive mind dis
agreement the board voted 9 TO
2 against a closed shop. Mem
bers will not discuss executive
sessions and debates. But here
Ia their story:
The c. l. o. union at Kearney
had agreed not to strike for two
years. Leaders and members
were sympathetic to the national
defense program. Because Of
the company's expansion the
plant was being inundated" by
members who preferred not 10
join. Soon the c. l. o. would
have been outvoted. The board
did not think newcomers should
be forced to sign up. But the
mediators believed that law
abiding union should not suffer
from national defense. and there
fore the existing membership
was frozen" Behind the de-
cision was the belief that or
gsnization problems can be
settled more satisfactorily after
the emergency has ended.
Members insist that the board
acted for labor's good in denying
John L. Lewis a free hand in
the captive mines. The c. I. o.
has q closed shop in all other
coal mines. Had the L. NJ. w.
been given exclusive control in
the captive properties. that
union would have enjoyed a pri-
waite monopoly in q limited in
dustry with Uncle Sans sane
ton. A miner would have had
to become c. I. O.-er or 60 job
les. Thus would have strength
ened demands for government
rnent regulation along antitrust
lines.

inalienable rights OF the indi-
viduals. Unionism by its closed
shops and picketing violates the
spirit and principle of our con-
stitution. Even its own members
are coerced, inundated and
driven like dumb cattle. In
spirit, principle and purpose
unionism is Hitlerism.
8. Is this a representative gov
eminent? Do we, or do we not
delegate to our president the
right and authority to pilot our
Ship of State, guided by the
chart and compass Of our de-
mocracy? Is it not true that
our president is authorized by
our popular vote to exercise the
authority vested in him as our
delegated leader according to his
judgment and wisdom?
To me II is treason to our rep
resentative form of government.
a travesty upon the popular vote
Of the people, to have unions
and organizations to gang up
against the president; seeking
to tie his hands: it is an insult
to the high office of the presi-
dency.
Our constitution is backed by
the teachings of Jesus Christ
and the Universe Of Life. Union
ism is condemned by both. John
the Seer of Revelation saw this
day when men had strayed so
far from the Truth of God, that
II became necessary for men 10
have the Mark Of the Beast in
order TO sell or buy. This is
unionism. See Rev. 1918 to II.

L feasting and football and
IL there is any time left
a day for thinking on our mer-
oies and feeling thankful for
what we have received or miss
ed, is $50 or 152 years old. Just
as you like. You can argue
that Thanksgiving dates from
that fall Of 1852 when Gov.
Bradford. OF Massachusetts, call
ed upon the people to gather on
a specified DAY TO give thanks
not for bountiful harvest but be-
cause the harvest was no worse.
Viewed from the standpoint of
plenty the harvest was a fall
ure, but measured by the des-
perately poor crops of the year
before 1t was an occasion for
Thanksgiving.
For some time thereafter the
colonists met after the crops
were harvested to observe
a thanksgiving day. not as We
observe 1t now but rather as a
religious festival. There was
feasting, of course, but the big
public feature of the observance
was the long and serious reli-
gious service in the meeting
house.
This custom continued until
the revolution when the people
forgot everything else but fight
ing the British. After the war
there were so many other things
to consider that the annual
Thanksgiving was not observed.
IL was not until 1889 that the
custom was re-established. In
that year the first presidential
proclamation was issued. So,
n you like, you can date Thanks
giving from that year.
The Revolutionary war was
over and the country was
settling down to the business of
establishing government Of
the people. The constitution had
been adopted. Under the leader
ship of George Washington order
was fast taking the place Of
chaos. 1t looked like a good
time for some official Thanks
giving, and in September, 1889.
just as congress was about to
adjourn. Washington was asked
TO issue a proclamation for a
day of general thanksgiving.
Representative Elias Boudi-
not, of Virginia, moved that a
date be fixed for "a day
of thanksgiving and prayer and
acknowledgment of the many
signal fsvors of Almighty God
and, especially for His afford
ing the people an opportunity
for establishing a constitution of
government for their safety and
happiness"
Roger Sherman, of Connect
cut, seconded the motion.
