 Tuesday The Associated Press made Frank B Moves it's honorary president It a honor the only new one they could think of for the surviv- ing founder of the association thirty eight years it's president is still one of it's directors. He almost born in newspaper office. His father, Crosby S Moves editor of The Washington Star, taught hin, the whole art and mystery of newspaper making Frank Moves began by selling newspapers the office counter He was reporter He became = ger At one time he was editor with prosperous re- sults of The Chicago Record Herald, which he left to become president of his present newspaper com pany.
 With Victor Lawson and Melville E. Stone, he was founder of The Associated Press originally ot Illinois, but in 1900 established under the laws of New York as a cooperative, non-profit making con- cern. In the Nneties association of news col lectors sought to hold up everybody in the business The freedom of the press, the honesty of it's news and the independence of it's opinions had been threatened For some time it easy task to bring converts to the society. Cooperative used to be dangerous word. Mon profit making seemed to suggest impossible atruism Frank Moves must have had considerable missionary work to do
 The immense expansion of the field of col lection, the new agencies of communication and SC on are too obvious dwell upon The long, unself- sh labor of Frank Moves is most to be honored be- cause it has kept the news of so many newspapers straight and honest. Everybody in the profession knows that and can tell the story better than this vate regard and affection with matter of general public interest. MT.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compeP
SUNDAY, MAY 16

Benefic aspects rule strongly to- day which is fortunate for churches and the clergy. Under this config- uration study of the Scripture will be more general than in all pre- yious times, it is foretold.
 HEART AND HOME: Women may be exceedingly apprehensive and depressed today. The stars en- courage the writing of letters and messages to absent sons and daugh- ters, husbands and fathers, from whom good news is indicated. There is a sign which seems to promise keen intuition which is telepathic in it's power. Communication be- tween persons long separated will be possible through mental sym pathy, the seers predict.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Extraor- dinary midsummer business activity is prognosticated. The tempera- mental stock market will fluctuate sharply but will show steady gains in certain securities. Investments in Government bonds will increase as sound judgment, as well as pa- triotism, encourages buying. Ship building stocks will continue active i it is indicated, and certain miscel- laneous issues will gain stability.
 NATIONAL ISSUES; Domina ton of industry after the war will be a hidden motive among ambi- tious American industrialists, it is forecast. Astrologers warn that our great achievements in production may arouse envy within Allied .na- tions Absolute concentration upon the herculean task of winning the war should obviate future plans for commercial power, the seers em- i phasize. Again they deprecate the tendency to mix politics with pa | triotism.
 INTERNATIONAL AIRS: Gradual progress of the planets through the twelve signs of the zodiac is believed by astrologers te be of first importance in far-reach- ling changes in the power or the loss of it by the nations on the globe. The seers, who foretell oul great increase of strength to tht first place among all peoples, dis. cern the danger that war condi tions may cause lasting deviation from purely democratic principles. Persons whose birthdate it is hav' the augury of year of highly sue cessful activities. Both men and wo men will benefit greatly, despit the war.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be carefree and inclinet to be too generous. Unusual artis tic gifts are foretold.

INTERNATIONAL A F F A R $: Astrologers who have compared the horoscope of Hitler with that of Napoleon declare that the Nazi F'uehrer has many signs more threatening than those ill the Bon aparte map. Like all bullies, Hitler is revealed as a coward to those who read his horoscope. It was prophesied that he would die last year when evil portents ruled him in February and again in May. The aspects affecting Hitler were the source of auguries predicting the decline of Nazism Saturn in Gem ini passing over the Feuhrer's na- tural Neptune in his house of death seemed to presage the end of the tyrant, after he had done many foolish things.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of expanding fortunes and much advancement. Women will be lucky in love.
 Children born on this day prob ably will succeed in artistic voca- tions. They may be improvident yet always opulent.

MONDAY, MAY IT

Adverse planetary aspects rule to- day. News that is uncertain ano unsatisfactory may be received from the war fronts.
 HEART AND HOME: Plans fol postwar economic safety for return ing soldiers and dislocated civil ians will be widely discussed through coming months. Older per sons bred in the American tradi- tions of Independence and self reliance will be slow to advocate sweeping reforms which assure plenty for all Under the kindly Fin- fluence of Uranus the new econ- on1ic concepts will gradually pre- vail, astrologers declare, as they foresee conditions belonging to the Aquarian age.

MAY KEEP CONTROL

So Ickes will have no other re- course than to retain control of the mines if he wants to keep them in production.
 Just how much more Lewis can expect to get from Ickes, in addi- ton to the concessions he has re- ceived, is problematical. The Inter for Secretary already is wavering a little under heavy pressure from White House advisers James Byrnes and Harry Hopkins and VILE Chairman William H. Davis.
 Inside fact is that Davis, under the urging of his associates, called on Ickes shortly after the 15-day truce was announced and told him flatly that he and his whole board would resign unless they were all lowed to resume negotiations for a settlement of the mine dispute.
 Davis was blazing mad about news stories that the WLB had been by-passed" and that Ickes himself would endeavor to achieve compromise settlement. There will 2 be official denials, but these stories hit very close to the mark. While Ickes made no definite commit ments to Lewis, he indicated that he would play an active role in effecting an agreement satisfactory to the miners. the operators, and, most important of all, to the na- tion
 However. rather than provoke an open fight with the War Labor Board, Ickes subsequently agreed with Davis to step completely out of the picture and later announced to a press conference that he would not intervene personally to get the miners and operators to resume col lective bargaining talks.
 On the other hand, he will not relinquish the mines if there Is any likelihood of a strike-and this holds good for the duration

WAR NOTES


 Ambassador Litvinoff's mission to Moscow may be final There is about one chance in three that he will return. Seldom does man who has fallen so far from favor as Litvinoff with Stalin return pe. manently to power Military experts believe Germany is press ing Finland to join a military cf- fensive against Leningrad. Baron Mannerheim left Finland for Switzerland in the nick of time. If he had stayed much longer, and if Finland collaborates fully with Germany as now appears likely, he would have been killed by Finnish opponents of collaboration. :.
