MORE PROPAGANDA

Since the first of this year. according to the o.
flee of Facts and Figures, there have been an in
creasing number of German broadcasts slanted for
consumption in South America especially concerning
the economic activities in Europe under the Reich.
Rumanian grain paintings had exceeded all ex-
pectations factory was being built in France.
Belgium had signed a pact with Italy, concerning
trade Prices for electrical current in Germany had
been reduced In the occupied countries the Reichs-
mark was cheerfully accepted and retained because
people viewing it as stable currency
Each day. the shortwave beams to South America
carried string of little such as these,
apparently innocent news" items.
Taking all of these things together, it is appar-
ent that Naz propagandists were endeavoring sys-
tematically to build the impression among their
listeners of a constructive Europe, establishing
new enterprises forming economic and cultural con-
nectons in and with countries satisfied with German
guidance"
The idea was to make the people in South Am
erica and in the United States believe that they were
throwing their effort into fight against peaceful
constructive and satisfied continent.

Bomber Command In China
Cincinnati Enouirer)

Chna's long struggle against japanese aggression
has been story of of men fighting with little
more than their own courage and small arms against
well-equipped invader What weapons have been
dispatched the Chinese have fitfully at best
and in Woefuly inadequate numbers.
With Burma captured, the important land
route by which China could be supplied has dsap-
peared The alternate route from India is combn-
alton of cowpath and blueprint, and little Like
wise the much gamorized air freight service from
the west probably represents little more than
pration.
The result is that China's armies. equipped
with the heavy implements of modern war so essen
tial to in the field find themselves in pro-
gressiyely worse condition far tanks, heavy ar
tllery and especially airplanes, are concerned The
lack of planes is the most critical No heroism ON
the part of the American Volunteer Group, the young
Chinese pilots and segments of the Raj can hope
to prevail against superior forces being continually
reinforced. Planes the prime need; but, for
tunately, planes be brought to China more read
lily than other weapons
Realizing that Britain and America are making
every effort to bolster Chnas power of resistance
in the air Japan is making desperate attempt now,
to knock China out of the for good With the
Chinese armies il-equpped to stem these advances,
the burden Of defense must fall upon the air strength
which the United Nations can muster in Chinas aid
A most hopeful sign in this direction is the an
nouncement that an American bomber command has
been organized in China. Whether this command
has more than an administrative Observation-Disclosures
it is physical thing with real planes and crews and
supply centers-has not been divulged.
If it is the one instrument with which can
give the most help to China, not only defensively
but by carrying the to Japan proper, is being
forged

DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

trip in 1888, Harry B. Crozier, then
of the Dallas News, now Unemploy-
ment Commissioner of Texas, Was
standing beside handsome Senator
Tom Connally and asked this ques-
ton:
Senator, who is the President
going to appoint federal judge down
in the SOUTHWEST"
Il don't know" replied Senator
Connally, except that it isn't going
to be that little stinker Alfred"
A few minutes later, the Presi-
dent announced that he had decided
to make his old friend Governor
Jimmy Alfred a federal judge.
The incident is significant be-
cause the most important Demo-
cratic primary this summer SO far
as Roosevelt is concerned is the
Senatorial race in Texas involving

to do anything much about poll

special interest to him, not because

HOROSCOPE
1.-THE stars incline
but do not compel"
SUNDAY. JULY IL

L
Benefic aspects rule today which
should be suspicious for churches
and philanthropies. The clergy are
under a fortunate direction OF the
stars which presage widening in
fluenee.
HEART AND HOME: This is a
favorable day for entertaining SER
vice men in the home. Aged persons
are especially stimulated in good
works and kindly counsels. Through
war conditions the value OF exper-
fence will be widely appreciated and
the youth movement which was
prevalent before the war will be re-
vealed as preparatory for the varied
adventures in foreign conflict in
the air and on land and sea. Heroes
will stir hearts by splendid deeds
that prove the value of birth in
free country
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: The out
look for the week is reasonably
good. Plans for summer vacation
will entail less money outlay than
usual but pleasure seekers will be
surprisingly numerous. Bicycles and
farm wagons will supplement bus
service in many parts of the coun-
try. Nearby home resorts will be well
patronized and in or m al house
parties in beach huts and mountain
cabins will be popular. Much money
will circulate in small towns and
villages. Increase of inexpensive
hotels will be advocated by tourists.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Recrea-
tions and sports as antidotes for
war anxieties will be enthusiastically
promoted by far-seeing men and
women. Revival of oldtime games
will become popular and again the
champion horseshoe pitcher should
win notice. outdoor lectures and
community singing will bring to-
gether large groups of citizens, the
seers prophecy as they compare the
effects of certain configurations OF
the past with those of the present.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS:
Because Of the aspects of Jupiter,
astrologers think that the war will
end suddenly much earlier than
predicted. Seers who are cautious
in their representations, however,
declare that the trend toward VIC
tory for the Allied Nations will be
evident by the Autumn, but they
forsee 1943 as a year of extensive
operations. Time will be required to
settle the world conflict. Without
complete defeat of the Axis no
lasting peace can be possible, they
declare.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of gain and
advancement Domestic affairs will
be happy. The young will meet ro-
nance.
Children born on this day prob-
ably viii be devoted to home ties.
These Cancer natives have the for
cast of good fortune all through life.

MONDAY. JULY 10

MONOA1, JOhI 10
This is not an important day in
planetary direction. Good and ii
are discerned in the configuratior
for this date.
HEART AND HOME: Women
should be fairly lucky under this
sway which is helping to all do
nestle relations. 1t is a time to
push constructive plans for the
family welfare and to encourage
faith in religious concepts. Scienti-
fic investigation Of occult phenom-
ena win encourage cults that should
be avoided. Through the experiences
in physical conflict will develop q
new knowledge regarding the next
plane OF consciousness. the seers
prophecy. and thus many persons
will be comforted.
SINESS AFFAIRS: This
should be an suspicious date fol
pushing business which will alb
sorb more and more women. In
offices and shops, factories and lab
oratories girls will prove theil
ability. When peace is established
everyone will have plenty OF work
it is foretold, and women will re-
tain their places as wage earners
even though they are married te
men with fair incomes In changed
national economy equality Of oppor-
tunity is extended to wives and
mothers.
NATIONAL ISSUES: Former ma
tional prejudices against Commun-
ism will be worked on by fifth col
umnists who predict that after the
war Russia will be our foe instead
of our friend. The stars, however
encourage full cooperation with the
Soviet government which, like all
other governments including our
own, will undergo great changes in
ideas and policies after the con
flict. In other words. equality and
liberty will be more than mere
names. Labor is to gain even greater
