 After all there is nothing to arouse alarm for the unwedded ladies. The shortage is not SC acute There is Jack for every Jill with some Jacks left for good measure.

 The 1940 census gave the ratio LOOT males to 1000 females, an excess of 45O00O males for the country a whole But it is pointed out that "a protraction of the present war, with casualties as heavy those of the Civil War, may cause pre- ponderance of females" Explaining that the ratio of males to females in l94O the lowest since the peak of 1O6o to 1000 in 1910 the statisticians indicate that the drop due principally to the de- cline in immigration since then
 Immigration in the decade l911-1920 totalled 57O00O0 in l921-1930, it 4,l00000; and in 1931- l94O only little than half a million "The decade prior to 1910" the statisticians point out witnessed the greatest voluntary movement of popu- laton the world has seen. the immigrants dur ing those years numbering 8800000' As examples of how migraons affect the ratio between the the statsticans point out the very high proportion of in the Far West about the middle of the last century
 They indicate that the census at each decade

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 6

Through morning hours h C planetary government today is un- certain but later strong benefic aspect dominates.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are under kindly sway They will bene- fit through church connections and associations which will bring them courage and fortitude through per- lods Of intense anxiety. There are signs as indicating trend toward mysticism. The line separating this plane of existence from the next Will become almost imperceptible Tor many persons who receive mes- sages from friends that havepassed on. More literal interpretations of the Scriptures will be accepted by great numbers of men and women BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Food is to be plentiful and farmers are to be more prosperous than in former years. Vast quantities of American produce will be shipped to starv- ing war victims. Improved methods of processing fruits and vegetables Will continue to increase our abil- lty to relieve thousands of the

MONDAY. DECEMBER !

Good and evil planetary influ- ences are active today. On this an- liversary of Japanese treachery there is a sign read as presaging success for our Navy
 HEART AND HOME: Peace and harmony in the household are pro- bable under this configuration which imparts patience, kindliness and understanding. It is not a favorable sway for new friendships Girls need not expect romance but they should be fortunate in their business associations today The trend toward serious acceptance of life among the young will be marked as students in high school and college assume responsibilities outside the classrooms. Work for the war will be most valuable to ooys and girls.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Astrolo- gers foretell for postwar days a radical modification of the capital .stic system. The collapse predicted by radical thinkers will not take place but there will be interna- tional financial readjustments of far-reaching effect As the year closes the benefits of Government interference to prevent imitation will be evident. The cost of living will be increased to a degree that cannot be controlled under existing legislation, the seers declare, but 1t will not prohibit comforts of all sorts.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: In the new year distribution of manpower will still be problem, it is foretold, but women will prove their abil- ity in away that removes many Government anxieties. The mobili- zation of Americans of every walk of life is to demonstrate democ- racy in it's most sweeping powers and will be of lasting benefit to the nation. Love of pleasure will be

State Department considers the Congress of Panama more impor- tant than the Senate of the Unit ed States.
 This military agreement provides for dD $700,000 year rent to Panama during the war for the occupation of certain areas in the Republic; (2 Building roa d s through Panama which become the property of Panama after the war; t3) Building bridge over a ma jor river which becomes the prop erty of Panama; (4) Building bridg- es over or subways under each end of the Panama Canal
 Senators studying these two agreements point out that the treaty of 1903 negotiated by Sec retary of State John Hay permit ted the United States to use the territory of Panama at any time for the defense of the Canal. And while they are behind the Good Neighbor Policy, Senators doubt whether a real good neighbor pol icy should be purchased for ap- proximately $5O,OoooOO in cash. AS a result, the treaty" submitted as a joint resolution" may not get a majority vote.

RATIoNING MRS. HENDERSON

The rationing programs of the OPA are complicating the life of Mrs. Leon Henderson. First she ran out of sugar, then she lost her ration book, and now she has had trouble at the filling station.
 Just before the dead line recent ly, she took the Henderson car and the "A" book to get the last four gallons of gas The attendant looked at the ration book, then looked at the license plate. CThere has been gas bootlegging in Wash ington, and Leon Henderson has ordered strict compliance wit h rules
 Upon Mrs. Leon Henderson the attendant fixed cold eye.
 What kind of funny business is this?" he demanded
 Whats the matter?" said lovely Merle Henderson, somewhat flus- tered
 You got somebody else's book, '' he declared, The numbers don't match
 Why that's impossible" she re- torted, T wouldn't do that! I'm Mrs. Leon Henderson"
 Lady, I can't help 1t if you're
