HOROSCOPE
"The stars incline
but do not compel"
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER IS

| SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER %
Benefic aspects rule today which
| is fortunate for constructive pro-
jects of any sort and most promis-
ing for military movement.
f, HEART AND HOME: This should
be an suspicious date for shopping
or for whatever contributes to per-
| sonal needs. 1t is time to make
careful plans for winter OF hard
work. Since it is now imperative
for women to engage in war effort
of some sort there should be am
bition to become as valuable as pos
sible. Science and technical train
ing should be applied in preparation
for the utmost service to the ma
ton. This is a fortunate date for
enrolling in university courses for
special instruction along practical
lines.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: One of
the chief aims among leaders in the
business world will be the simpli-
lication of their methods of organi-
zation. Owing to war complexities
and Government cooperation the
maze of red tape and the endless
paper jobs continue to cause ire
mendous waste of time in operating
the machinery of trade and COM
merce. There is a sign read as en-
couraging elimination of whatever
is unnecessary in the processes of
merchandising and manufacturing
Too many employees will not longer
impede instead of speeding industry
when long discussed reforms are
put into practice This means plane
tary influence should have a salu-
tary effect in overstaffed Govern
ment offices, the seers declare.
NATIONAL SSUES: Fine
achievements among Negro scien-
lists and splendid heroism among
Negro soldiers will overcome race
prejudices, according to astrology.
In the new era universal desire
Tor justice and a general recog-
milton of the freedom and equality
OF all humanity are to develop
rapidly Great ideals are to pre-
vail Meanwhile through the haz-
ards and sacrifices of the war uni
verssl brotherhood is to evolve.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Marked improvement in the outlook
OF the French nation will continue
but severe obstacles and strange
disappointments will retard plans to
restore the unity Of the great peo-
pie who have been the victim of
Nazi savagery. Complete rehabili-
tation of the nation may be slow
but sure in its accomplishment. As
trologers foretell that 1947. when
Jupiter is in benefic sway. a new
constitution will be accepted and a
stable Government established.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of careful pro-
cedure which will bring success. If
caution is not maintained trickery
VIII cause heavy losses.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be exceedingly talented but
tney should be trained in practical
methods of work.

The drive of Connecticut trade uniOnists and their friends against the so-called Hobbs Anti Racketeering BilP' increased this week, as it became clear that unless a mighty groundswen of protest made itself felt in Washing ton, the bill had an excellent chance of being passed by the Senate. The measure has al- ready been passed by the House of Representatives, and the belief of Connecticut labor leaders is that anti labor forces in Washington will use the feeling stirred up by John l.. Lewis to call for a vote on the Hobbs Bill at the ''right'' moment.
 MALONEY REPLY
 Further indication of the need for protests from this state came in the form of a letter received by Harold V. Feinmark, president of the New Haven Central Labor Coun- ci, from U. s. Senator Francis MalOney. Maloney's letter was an answer to a telegram sent to him by Feinmark vOicing labor's Op- position to the Hobbs Bill. The Senator's answer follows:
 Fl hasten to acknowledge re-
 ceipt of your telegram of April
 twentieth, informing me that you
 are opposed to the so-calIed
 Hobbs Bill.
 chance to study this House pro-
 posal, but you may be certain
 that it will have my careful at-
 tentiOn and consideration as it
 comes to the Senate.''
 The Bridgeport and Hartford Central Labor Unions have pro- tested against the Hobbs Bill, as have a large number of local unions.
 In response to a telegram, the New Haven Central Labor Council this week received from Joseph A. Padway, general counsel of the American Federation of Labor, a legal analysis of the Hobbs Bill. Padway clearly shows that in the hands of a hostile prosecutor or judge, this bill if enacted into law, could be used to jail members of organized labor on the ground that demands they might make for wage increases would interfere with in- terstate commerce." Furthermore, an unfriendly judge might rule that requested wage increases came under the heading of ''extortion," thus automatically placing labOr's traditional and legitimate activities in the class of racketeering.

N. Workers
 To Get $3OOO In Back Pay
Ideal Shirt Co. Agrees On Restitution After Being
 Fined $48O

Approximately $3,O0O in back wages will be paid to 78 present and past employees of the Ideal Shirt Manu- featuring Co.,, New Haven, which was recently fined $240 on charges of violating the Wage and Hour Act by Judge Carroll C. Hincks ill the Federal Court in New Haven. Philip Planeta, president of the corporation, was fined an equal amount.
 Criminal action was brought by the Department of Justice on the basis of information uncovered by the Wage and Hour Division of the Connecticut Department of Labor.
 IS CENTS AN HOUR
 The Ideal Shirt Co. was charged in l6-count criminal information filed with the court by Asst. u. s. Atty. Valentine J. Sacco with vio- lating the minimum wage set by the Act by paying learners as low as Is cents an hour. He also char ed the company with paying straight time to salaried employees for work in excess of 40 hours a week; with failing to keep proper records and with falsifying other records to con- ceal the violations.
 The defendants pleaded guilty when arraigned on the charges, and have agreed to make restitution to the workers and former workers who had been underpaid.
 CHARGES DROPPED
 Sacco recommended that similar charges against the Goldstone Shirt Co. and its president Salvatore Di- Benedetto, be nolle pressed, following an investigation which disclosed that the company had been inactive during the period of the alleged violations, and that the workers involved were all employed by the Ideal Company.

Lund pointed out that since Pearl Harbor, output of planes, tanks, ships and guns has multiplied more than five times, and that similar records have been established on other war supplies.
 That proves the American worker knows this is his war and that he is ready to do all that is required to win it," Lund said
