Peace Not Far Off,
AstrOLOgers Predict

If British star-gazers know what
they are about, this will be a bad
year for the axis powers. Astrologers,
culling the heavens for signs of the
future, are agreed that the moon
Jupiter, Venus, Neptune, Mars. ETC..
are lining up to put the hex on
Hitler, Hirochito & Co.
Old Moore's almanac. established in
1897, reports for 1912:
Clearly the outlook for Hitler is
bad.
HE has his progressed ascendant
opposing Neptune, and Saturn and
Neptune transit near about this point
in May, 1912. Furthermore, the next
conjunction of Saturn and Marsin
February, l942-falls out on the as
cendant of the foundation map of the
third reich"
Old Moore's sums this up in plain
language: Somewhere between the
earliest and latest of these dates first
Hitler, and then nazism. will crash.
THE eliminating of Jupiter in
Japan" during February will give
Premier Hidek Tojo's boys trouble,
and peace will come early in the sum-
mer, the almanac adds.

Government Might
ReQlxisitiOn Autos

Automobile owners who have no
vital need for a car have received
warning that they may have to sur
render their machines to the govern
ment for use by the armed forces or in
essential civilian services.
Price Administrator Leon Henderson
told a press conference that this was
the gloomy prospect" for the future,
although he indicated no plans for
requisitioning private cars were yet
being given official consideration.
He gave this outline of the situation:
The automobile industry will be per-
mitted to produce about zoo, 1000 more
passenger automobiles this month and
then production will be shut down for
the duration of the war.
These 100000 units, plus $50 900 cars
now held by dealers, will be insuffi-
cient to fill the needs of consumers de-
scribed as essential under the tire "a
tioning program.
This means, he said, that there will
not be enough new cars to meet de-
mands of physicians and surgeons. po-
lice, fire departments and other pro-
tective agencies or the need for
ambulances.
AL this added up, he made clear.
to eventual government requisitioning
of private cars, though he commented
that in Germany and England COM
Wandering even now remained hot"
and unanswered question.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1942-01-16

An enormous speedup in many
plants producing war materials has
occurred since the japanese attack on
the United States at Pearl Harbor on
Dec. 7, survey shows.
The morale of factory workers from
coast to coast has improved under the
impact of the conflict, and therefore
the unit production of men and women
answer to the challenge of the war.
An increased work-week, often Of
fered voluntarily by the men of the
plants and mills, is giving an ever
greater outflow of tanks, guns, planes
and other war materials.
New plants, not scheduled for pro-
duction for weeks or months to come
have been pushed to the starting point
and are actually turning out goods OF
war.
Where figures were available always
in percentages, SO that valuable con-
