 The history of civilization and it's has pointed to the fact that downtrodden power vii find some way of rising up against it's oppressors We did it to earn freedom from the English king. When such revolt starts, the world has another on it's hands.
 We believe peace which will allow major powers to domineer weaker nations, either from ar economic or a military standpoint, will eventually prove failure We believe peace which will allow interruptions ambitious rabblerousers of the Hitler Mussoni type to seize control of any nation and enforce their crackpot selfish interests by force o arms, must be avoided.

While re- ceiving the congratulations of Sen ators and Representatives following his speech, Churchill suddenly in- auired, Where's Senator Garter Glass?n Told that the 83-year- Virginian had been unavoidably de- tained, Churchill said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I hoped very much to have the pleasure of meeting him"
 Most nervous man in the Senate during Churchill's speech was Lord Halifax, British Ambassador, who seemed worried about his chief. . Calmest man was Russian Ambas- sador Litvinov, who sat in the same row with Halifax, three seats away. Litvinov came out O. his shell and applauded vigorously when Churchill spoke of the vali- ant fight of the Chinese against the Japanese. He also grinned broadly when the Prime Minister ridiculed Mussolini.

CHURCHILL'S ROUTINE

 Winnie" Churchill did not heed the Ben. Franklin maxim about early to bed and early to rise. His day did not begin until ten in the morning. At that hour he wakened and plunged into the task of read ing the papers, dictating memos, and seeing intimate advisers.
 At o'clock he ate tremendous lunch - with champagne. After lunch came a siesta, until 4 o. clock After that, he worked furi- ously until eight. Into that four hour period he packed more than most people can accomplish in a full eight-hour day.

TUESDAY. JANUARY 6

TUESDAY, JANUARY 6 i This should be a fortunate day for initiative in big projects. The stars are read as stimulating to energy and helpful in mental vis- ion. re
 HEART AND HOME Recupera- tion from holiday festivities should give opportunity for planning the years program Economies should be on the program of every house. hold Again the seers urge women of all walks in life and every age to prepare for practical service for the nation. Courses in agriculture are advised for outdoor girls whose aid will be needed in coming sum- mers in gardens and on farms or ranches. The art most to be pur- sued is that of cooking in which frugality and nourishment are blended successfully.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Displays that suggest the possession of wealth should be avoided Social leaders should give up costly hos pitalities and rich attire, for there are planetary influences supposed to quicken class consciousness in unusual ways The trend toward a levelling of financial holdings will be strong as taxes increase the drain on American fortunes. The simple life should be sought by all in this time of national crisis, as- trologers declare. The economic revolution which has been in pro- 9fess for a number of years now becomes of great significance.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR Astrologers point out that for the United States, which is composed of persons tracing their nationali- ties to every country on the globe, the times of greatest danger are just before war or just after one. When the nation has actually en- tered into any great conflict the real greatness of the democracy is manifested This month is to be marked by perils through labor troubles, sabotage and spies.

PEACE TERMS

We will win the war and the peace which follows"
 So said President Roosevelt shortly after the outbreak of the present conflict
 With little evidence so far that we are winning the war nevertheless Senators last week talk ing for publication about the peace terms which should follow victory
 Premature though this talk may appear, we are certain that will win the war and we know, too, that the terms on which peace is based will mean much to future generations.
 However it is going to be long war the win ming of which is our first, foremost and supreme goal right now. We believe the terms of peace, upon which world peace for all time must be found- ed, should be calmly deliberately thought out. Last weeks expressions of the Senators to us the product of snap judgment
 Said Senator Scott w. Lucas Democrat, of Illinois:
 Japan should be reduced to the point where for LOGO years she will have control force in the family of nations. That goes for Germany and Italy too We can never have lasting peace until Htlerism and the philosophy which exists among the Axis powers is destroyed. The peace make is just as important the we are conducting '
 Declared Senator John J. Davis. Republican, of Pennsylvania:
 When win the should put steel wall around Japan. We should help make China a powerful. independent nation which could become a stabilizng force in the Orient.
 More conservative the viewpoint of Senator George w. Norris, Independent, of Nebraska, who said:
 T believe the Allies should first disarm Ger many Italy and Japan provide sufficient food to keep the inhabitants of those nations alive immedi ately after the cessation of hostes, and then work out a long-range peace program"
 Developments between now. and the time the ends may in many ways temper these opinions. We hear rumbngs of dissatisfaction among the Italian and German civilian populations There may

MISLEADING STATISTICS

The institution of marriage would seem to be slipping badly if not definitely the rocks in Ju- neau from a quick glance at the 1941 marriage license and divorce statistics released last week.
 The records of U S. Commissioner Felix Gray showed total of 131 marriage licenses issued here last year while the records of the Federal District Court revealed that 133 divorces were granted
 But don't be too quick to jump at the conclu- sion that more people being divorced here than being married For the figures little misleading.
 All 131 of the marriage licenses granted were handed out right here in Juneau by Commissioner Gray. But all the divorces were not granted here to Juneau couples
 Of the total of 133 divorces for the year, only 92 were handed out here in Juneau, while the other fl issued at Ketchikan during the court ses- sions there.
 So those 133 divorces the total divorces granted in the entire first division of Alaska during 1941 Many of the dvorces granted at Juneau, were actually egalizng separations of couples living in Sitka Haines and other nearby communities while the divorces granted in Ketchikan likewise affected the marital relationships of couples not only in the First City, but in surrounding towns, as we'll
 But in the case of those 13l weddings they represent only the licenses granted here in Juneau. We have received no statistics the number of licenses granted in Ketchikan, Stka, Petersburg, Skagway Wrangell other communities in the first division where licenses to wed may be obtained It is a good guess that some of these communities even exceeded the number of marriage licenses issued here.
 So when we dig behind the figures, the ratio of marriage to divorce in Juneau is not startling at all It even seems quite average.

into the American system-perhaps
permanently-a species of tyranny
wholly repugnant to the individual
freedom of which we boast and for
the preservation of which-so it Is
proclaimed-we are fighting
1t would be an ironical thing, in
deed. If we should preserve this
freedom from those who threaten
1t abroad only to lose it through
our own inertia at home. Yet, no
one who calmly reviews the record
of labor advances in the past two
years and thoroughly understands
the existing situation will contend
that this is a far-fetched idea. On
the contrary, there is reason to re-
gard 1t as considerably more than
remote possibility.
So much evidence has been given
Of the inability Of both the legis-
lative and executive branches of
the Government to discipline or
resist these labor leaders that it is
clear further gains will establish
them as the real rulers of the coun-
try, stronger than the Government
itself.
Closed Shop Held Main Goal.
1t is as impossible to deny that,
beginning with the threat of war
in 1910, our labor dictators have
skillfully used the national emer-
gency for the promotion of their
ends as it is impossible to deny that
they have made very great progress
toward those ends.
More than year ago it was stated
in this column that the real labor
strategy in the epidemic of strikes
with which the country was afflicted
before Pearl Harbor was not so
much concerned with wage increases
as with general establishment of
the closed shop throughout the
country. The real goal Is to bring
about condition in which every
man has to be member of a union
to get job; in which once a men,
ber of the union he has to remain
member or be blacklisted; cannot by
