German sportsman and not inter- ested in his Nazi views, has made a practice of taking a private plane from Hollywood to Mexico where she placed trans Atlantic phone calls to the Baron
 The Baron has cousin living in Switzerland whom he kept in- formed of his movements. And when he expected to be in city where he could receive a phone call, the cousin would cable Bar bara from neutral Switzerland Barbara would then take her prf- vate plane to Mexico and prepare for the clandestine phone call
 Barbara apparently did not real ize that every word she said to the Baron was taken down by telephone censors
 Not long ago, however, Barbara either cooled off toward the Baron or learned that he worked for the German Government. For she sent him cable instructing him not to communicate with her any more.
 NOTE: = Recently, Barbara has been in Mexican Pacific Coast resort with the Countess di Frazzc and cousin of Foreign Minister Anthony Eden.

 This is today It's not year ago today.
 Now the Japanese have practically all of the months the hordes of little bandy-legged yellow men swept down into the rich rubber lands of the South Pacific and took the rubber.
 The United States was at war
 Practically all of the factories, the resources the manpower of a vast democracy had to build up in few short months something greater than the Japan csc have built up a period of many years
 We have been doing remarkable job But re- gently the United States woke up to the fact that we running of rubber with which to equip planes, trucks tanks and other machines which we need to fight a war
 An Axis nation faced with this problem could very well order it's people to turn in both their old and rubber face a firing squad.
 The United States has a wealth of scrap rubber on old autos, on backyard swings, in the basements States asking it's people to realize the seriousness the situation.
 The United States is asking you to turn in every piece of rubber you dig up.
 Your nation needs this rubber at once if it is to continue to outstep it's enemies in the production of

to change its mind. The planes have not yet been sent.
 Meanwhile, handful of twin motored transports are slowly ferrying a trickle of munitions to China And twin -notored planes can scarcely lift a load over the lofty Himalaya Mountains. where there are forty peaks over 23.00O feet high.
 Our military mission to China is headed by Gen John Magruder, who went to Chungking to cooper ate with Generalissimo Chiang Kali shek, but results have disappointed the Chinese. They have complained that some American officers seem most concerned about dearth of bathtubs and surplus of bed-bugs which is something one has to take philosophically in China. But greatest of all tragedies is that, time after time, Chinese For eign Minister T. V. Soong will go to officials in the White House and get a promise of a certain number of bombing planes.
 Now can we tell the General issimo definitely that these planes will be sent?'' Soong asks White House officials.
 Yes, definitely"
 Because if there is any doubt, |" Soong reminds. it is much better not to promise"
 | The planes will be sent" is the renewed promise. You can cable the Generalissimo."
 ! But then the planes are not sent Someone around Gen. Arnold in the Air Corps holds them up, despite ' White House orders. And little by little, Generalissimo Chiang Kai- shek is beginning to wonder what an American promise amounts to

by the battle of Midway Island. Here U. S. land-based planes made mincemeat of the Japanese fleet. But also U. s. warships could not pursue the Japs anywhere near the Japanese mandated islands. be- cause we could not risk attack by Japanese land-baSed planes.
 In other words, land-based planes are the key to this war, especially in the Pacific. For at present the Pacific war is deadlocked until we can get land bases near Japan to bomb her, or she can get land bases near us. For the old idea oi the American Navy steaming up tc Yokohama and throwing shells into Japan proper is just as out mcded as the spear and armor oi the Crusades-unless we have land based planes to protect the fleet

BED BUGS Ys. PLANES

The importance of China as a site for U. s. land based planes against Japan has long been rec ognized. Tragedy is that so little has been done about it. We are waking up just as the Japs are about to take all the land bases China has. We are waking up so slowly that some U. s. Air Corps strategists are not willing to send planes to China even today, feeling that they are more important else where.
 A short time ago Gen. Hap" Arnold, chief of Air Corps, agreed to send number of 4-motored transport planes to China They could have made a real dent in the transportation problem, would al- most have made up for loss of the Burma Road. But then someone close to Gen. Arnold persuaded him

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compel"
THURSDAY, JUNE 1s

Uncertain planetary influences are forecast for today. Mercury is in benefic aspect and Venus strongly adverse.
 HEART AND HOME: While this configuration prevails women should avoid risks of every sort. It IS most unfortunate for love affairs since misunderstanding are cas- fly brought about. Girls will find this a date more favorable for work than for play. It is lucky day for signing contracts and for writings of every sort. The war is to develop women novelists of un- usual literary attainment in inter preting a new world to the. people who survive the war.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Govern ment will take over big business even more extensively than in re- cents months, it is forecast. Instead of encroachment there will be ab sorption of great industries neces- sary to the prosecution of the conflict. Absolute unity of effort must be maintained if the dem ocracies are to be preserved and, by a strange inconsistency, dicta- torial methods must be pursued. The people of the United States will cheerfully surrender many priv ileges as they see the menace of Axis aggression at close range.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Pluto, lat est known of the planets, is be- lieved to have much influence at present. This planet entered the sign Leo in 1887 and will remain in it until 1868. Leo is fire sign and the influence of Pluto in the sign is believed to encourage political upheevals and shifts of power. Italy, France and Japan are all under Leo. The three coun- tries will meet the sort of fate which makes them memories so far as their former greatness is con- cerned. Mussolini is to suffer phy- sical collapse and political elimin- ation. These evil portents give new courage and enthusiasm to support ers Of the United Nations.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Between 1942 and 1856 Neptune will be in Libra, sign encouraging agreements, contracts and partner ships. During the fourteen years plans for universal equality and fraternity will develop, astrologers foretell A new world parliament or court is prognosticated From tiers will disappear, so will trade barriers. When Jupiter comes to conjunction with Neptune in 1945, world organization will be advocat- ed. While men fight other men will plan peace conditions.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of fair for tunes. There may be many ad- entures that cause desire for pleasure as an offset.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be emotional and high strung. generous and talented. Inn. position and extravaganza may cause them trouble in college and later.
