paper and paper bags used in the ordinary grocery
store so percent this year under what it was in 1910
This is according to appeal of the Associated
Grocers COOP which further says: THE only way

ing what the situation is and aid as their patriotic
duty. in bringing paper bags back to the store or
getting shopping bags and bringing them back to
the store making bags out of cloth of some kind
and bringing them to the store each time.
You can be OF untold assistance. Remember
the Government needs this paper for efforts
and unless get the cooperation of the consum-
ing public, just simply going to be told that
we can't have any paper and paper bags in the

present time and they may force the retail grocer

Despite the need of conversingl every ounce of
metal for use in war the government is not yet
ready to put the old-time peaceful adage, into re-
verse. The American people are not likely to be
called upon to beat their plowshares into swords.
On the contrary, according to all present plans,
the country is going in for food production in 4

birds that fly the air. from the soil The soil

ELECTIONS AS USUAL

At recent dinner given in Philadelphia by the

that in spite of the emergency, the Nations
two-p party system must be continued and elections
fought out usual :.
Il have sympathy for those who would do
away with the twoparty system and call bipartisan
elections, said James A. Farley, former Democratic
National Chairman and ex-Postmaster General
John D. M. Hamilton former Republican Ma
tional Chairman, who followed Farley, said.
Mr.. Farley has expressed my thoughts exactly.
He has said well what perhaps couldn't have said
about the preservation of the two-party system"

the duty, of course, for Senators and Representa-

But it is their duty also to speak up if anything
goes wrong They should be Senators and Repre-

office"

fort of Jap enemy aliens.
On Monday, on the heels of a

swooped down on large Jap fish

Several days after the Justice

soft-pedal the widespread demands
for drastic government action
against Jap aliens.

This is a fortunate day in labor

an aspect stimulating to clear
thinking,
HEART AND HOME: The stars
encourage home industries today.
Women will undertake many tasks
that contribute to the well-being
of the family Under this ,configu-
ration poise and philosophy should
be apparent among mothers and
wives whose minds travel con-
stantly to men in the service OF

list the energies of persons CT all
ages who will put liberty above all
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Industrial
machinery will function with amaz-
ing speed and business will go on
much as if there were no war. The
American adaptability to circum-
stances will be demonstrated in the
marts of trade. Large amounts OF
money will be spent for whatever
is needed for the most thorough
protective measures as well as for
about warfare. Warning is given
against the danger of harboring
fears in the carrying out of i'm
portant commercial enterprises.
Strange developments in the COM
mercial world are prophesied and
new heroes will gain fame.
NATIONAL ISSUES: AS the
world war progresses there will be
critics of campaign plans, but the
stars are read as presaging some
fumbling toward war proficiency

for the most wonderful victory over

declare that this year will be
marked by the most violent conflict

through 1943 and even into the
following year. There is sign

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR s.:
The titanic struggle in the world
war may be even more intense after
the Saturn Uranus conjunction of
May 3. when there may be changes
in the United States plan of cam

fensive measures. Because of the
element of surprise there will be
many unnecessary precautions taken
to protect civilians in all parts of
the country Again the seers prop
