HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
bat do not compel"
Tuesday, April 10

, Benefic aspects rule in the early
hour today but later adverse in
fluences are active. This should be
lucky date for women and their
chief interests.
HEART AND HOME: Stimula-
ton of energy should spur women
of all ages to accomplish much in
war work today. Optimism should
be general as apprehensions re-
garding husbands and sons in the
armed forces relax under the spur
of urgent tasks Cooperation with
men in shops and factories will
GAIN despite efforts to prevent full
equality of the sexes in wages and
hours of work. The seers of far
vision declare that in postwar days,
when men will be in the minority
in numbers, all economic lines DIV
iding men and women will disap-
pear.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: This
should be fortunate configuation
for hipping. Transportation
troubles will diminish for the Unit
ed Nations and air power will in
crease tremendously The submar-
inc menace will be overcome. as gil
gantie freighting tasks are complet-
ed by the Allies. American business
men will prove their genius for
achieving greatness as they send
mountains of supplies overseas. Pa
triotism will eliminate desire for
profit which was evident in the
early days of war.
NATIONAL ISSUES: The Jap
anese in the United States are to
present new perplexities. The few
with alien sympathies will cause
injustices for the many who are
loyal citizens, it is forecast. Agri-
culture will benefit through the
work Of the Nesei who contribute
expert service in fields and or
chards. Axis agents will be active
in Japanese centers, astrologers
warn.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Joseph Stain is to benefit in COM
ing weeks from suspicious aspects
which presage immense political
power and prestige, to which his
knowledge of clever diplomacy will
contribute greatly. Russia's man of
destiny knows the value of silence
and by keeping his own counsel he
will let the world 60 ON guessing.
Astrologeis emphasize the fact that
in postwar times he will have adj
vantage in being a ruler whose
term of office does not expire on a
definite date. Experience will count
for much in reconstruction days
when the United States may place
new man at the head of its gov
eminent.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of unusual
experiences which bring happiness.
Romance is Indicated.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be endowed with talents
which enable them to succeed in
unusual vocations. They will have
magnetic personalities Il

NO. WE AREN'T FIGHTING MAD

Editor and Publisher magazine for the Fourth
Estate in recent issue stated that it is time our
nations editorial pages got fighting mad and whipped
their readers into realization of how tough the
Is going to be-
The magazines advice to editors-"Get the ma
ton fighting mad"
It's great idea. queer newspaper editors
haven't thought about it before tei'e3
Funny thing about it, though. Back at the be-
ginning most editorial writer's tried to do something
about It, So far it's been flop. The people at home
are still fighting 10 percent war.
You know, it's hard to get mad Americans are
peaceful sort of persons. They have to have some
thing to get mad about. That's the trouble. It's one
thing to listen to advice about whipping the read
erso into fighting mad mood And another to find
something to use for whip.
We could advise our readers that if they don't
get fighting mad they might lose the war. But it
wouldn't do much good They've been told that many,
many times.
( Only once, as far as can remember off-hand,
have the people on the home front had something
to make them really fighting mad. That is, only
once since Pearl Harbor Even the truth about Pearl
H4rbor was handed out in small painless chunks,
most Of it pretty we'll sifted es
The other time was when we had the hell
knocked out of Bataan Peninsula In the Phlp-
pines The people were pretty mad for while then.
They bought more War Bonds, thought little bit
more about how tough really was how little our
Army on Bataan had to fight with, how hard we
would have to work to build up a force that could
match that Of Japan
& It would have been hard to conceal the snatter-
ing defeat Bataan. -
" fs,it since Bataan we haven't had very mitch to
get mad about Not much as far as the people are
concerned. We have had few big battles in the
Pacific since then. All big victories according to first
reports The first story tells us that the Japs lost
50 many ships and planes Later, sometimes several
days later often months afterwards, we find Out

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEAD
QUARTERS, Australia, April IA
UP)-Japan controls the sea lanes
in the western Pacific and the line
cf airmen on scattered bases in the
2300-mile Pacific front must carry
the Allied hope of stopping any re-
inforced enemy onslaught, Gen.
Douglas Macarthur said today.
THE first line of Australian de-
fense is our bomber line Mac
Arthur said "If we lost the air,
naval forces cannot save u.s."
Joining the swelling chorus of
warnings from Allied leaders that
q Japanese attack is imminent,
Prime Minister John Curtin said m
Melbourne that the enemy threat
lis clear" and recently frustrated
air blows merely marked the pre-
lude to combined navy -air-ground
operations aimed directly at Aus
tralia.
ON HEAVIER SCALE
Recent reverses have only con-
vinced Japan that her attacks
against our positions must be car
ried out on a heavier scale to be
successful" Curtin said.
The statements from Macarthur
and Curtin followed authoritative
estimates that Japan has doubled
her fighter and bomber strength in

Russians DESTROY
200 Germans in
Only Major Battle

MOSCOW, April ii CUP)- Rus
sian troops, battling to hold their
brideghead on the west bank of the
DonetS river below Balakleya, killed
200 Germans today in the only
major engagement reported in the
Soviet midday communique.
Five German anti-tank guns were
destroyed and two tanks disabled,
the communique said In another
sector of the same front, Soviet
scouts penetrated an enemy oc-
cupied village and killed 40 Ger
man soldiers.
FOLLOWS ATTEMPT
The actions followed futile
German attempt yesterday TO break
through the Russian lines in the
Leningrad area to close the narrow
supply corridor to the east. The
Germans hurled hundreds of in
fantrymen and tanks at the Soviet
positions, but abandoned the at
tempt after losing three tanks and
suffering heavy casualties.
On the Volkhov front, southeast
Of Leningrad, the Russians silenced
six artillery and trench mortar
batteries and destroyed eight gun
emplacements and pillboxes, the
midday communique said. Rifle
and machine-gun fire accounted for
200 German officers and men.
The Tuesday midnight communi-
que said Soviet troops on the
Smolensk front seized the initia-
tive and crossed river, where they
laid a minefield under enemy fire
and dislodged Germans from forti-
fled positions, killing several dozen
of them. Russian artillery killed
200 more today.

Freight Rates to
Be Lowered Soon

WASHINGTON, April ID tUP)--
Railroad Communication fares and
freight rates will returned to their
1941 level on May Is, but commuta-
ton fares will be subject to indie
pendent hearing by the Interstate
Commerce Commission to determine
whether they again should be in
creased.
The ICC late yesterday revoked
its year-old authorization of an
increase in commutation fares. 1t
refused to revoke the 10 per cent
cent increase on standard passen-
ger fares lest such revocation would
increase travel when other govern
ment agencies are trying to hold it
down.

said, Japanese naval forces in

By the Associated Press.
Martinique, for many months
the only French nom Axis-occu-
pied territory to hold out against
cooperating in the fight to lib
crate France, today placed its
ships and resources at the dis
posal of the United Nations.
It was significant to many observ-
ers that the formal transfer of al
1egiance comes on the 154th ami
versary of the storming of the
Bastille-a revolutionary act that
marked the birth of French freedom.
Henri Hoppenot, delegate of the
French Committee of National Lib
Grafton, was due 20 arrive at Fort de
France today and formally take over
from Admiral Georges Robert the
authority he formerly exercised as
French high commissioner of the
Antilles.
The State Department last night
made clear that Admiral Robert
long a holdout against cooperation
with the United Nations-had de-
cided at last to relinquish his au-
thority to representative OF the
French committee in Algiers.
U. S. Officials Pleased.
Important primarily as a CONSOLE
dation Of the French front for lib
Grafton of the motherland, the ad-
herence of Martinique to the United
Nations cause was a source of salts
faction in this country, too, for the
French Antilles martinique and
Guadeloupe) are in the front yard
of the Panama Canal. What goes
on there cannot be matter of in
difference to Washington.
In announcing arrangements for
the transfer of authority, the State
Department said M. Hoppenot had
assured the United States Govern
ment that the facilities and re-
sources" of the French Antilles
would be modified to the fullest ex-
tent in the war against the Axis, and
that AL presently immobilized
French naval and merchant ships"
at Martinique would be made avail
able.
Most important of the naval YES
sells now at Martinique is the $4,000
ton aircraft carrier Bearn. Also at
Fort de France are the fast cruiser
Emile Berth, the training cruiser
Jeanne D'Arc, various auxiliary YES
sells and number of tankers.
100000, 900 in Gold.
The State Department announce
ment did not specify whether Mar
tinique's facilities and resources"
would include some $500, 100000 in
gold sent there from France when
that country fell to the Germans
It was widely assumed, however,
that this bullion would help detray
the cost of arming French forces.
Evidence that the United States
Government was satisfied with the
arrangements to turn authority over
to M. Hoppenot was seen in the
lifting of the food blockade clamped
on Martinique by this country last
November and in the announcement
that relief supplies would be sent to
Martinique and Guadeloupe without
delay.
M. Hoppenot, who has been direc-
tor of civil services of the French
Military Mission in Washington,
was accompanied by assistants, one
of whom presumably is Capt. Robert
Lambert, commander of the Battle
ship Richelieu, who was designated
to take charge OF the ships in the
Antilles
