known to the ancient peoples of the Mediterranean area many stories have risen concerning the sword fishs prowess Many of these were doubtless oaseo on fact since there genuine records of the sword fish driving his sword through both sides Of small boats This is possible due to the tremendous speed of attack of which these fish capable.

cox BACK-TRACKS

It's a closely-guarded secret, but the Cox Congressional Committee now probing the Federal Communi- cations Commission, recently tried to nab all FCC records relating to Station VALE of Albany, Ga, which paid Congressman Cox $2,500 for representing it in license re- neWal case. Cox has been turning the heat on the EGG, which had recommended that he be prosecuted for taking the check.
 The Cox-WALB file was demand ed in a terse letter from Fred R. Walker, assistant counsel of the Cox committee. Some EGG officials were for turning over the material, but Commissioner Clifford Durr put his foot down at a closed-door meeting called after the Walker letter arrived

JESSE WANTED A RIDE

Jesse Jones would like to hitch hike to Newport News next Sat urday, and take Mrs. Jones along. For the moment, he doesn't see any other way of getting there.
 The occasion is the launching of the new cruiser Houston, for which Jesse's home town folks raised $84,- 100000 in war bonds, after t h e sinking of the old Houston in the Pacific.
 But the boats that used to run from Washington to Norfolk and Newport News are limping along with a limited service, while a train ride would involve day coach travel from Richmond, possibly standing in the aisle.
 As for taking plane, Mrs. Jones puts her foot down firmly, remem- bering all too keenly that accident a few years ago when her husband escaped death in Louisiana only because the pilot, wrapped in flames. remained at the controls, and made a landing which caused his own death but saved the pas sengers.
 Finally, Jesse is scrupulous about using his own car for what would

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compel"
TUESDAY, JUNE p

This is not an important day in planetary direction Persons in au- thority are under benefic aspects iThe President of the United States is under a fortunate sway.
 HEART AND HOME. As the summer quarter begins there is much to cheer the women of the United Nations who pray for sons and husbands in the long fight for liberty. Prospects for victories that will send many Americans home for leaves and furloughs are posi- tive, the seers declare, and there is reason to feel that coming weeks will bring decisive battles which cause the end of the war to be at least certain, even though far off | in date.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: While bankers, statesmen and financiers discuss an international banking system, gold as basis of value will be more or less questioned. Heads of big business will pause in plans for future expansion but current trade will be active and exceedingly profitable. Retail mer- chants will continue to enjoy in- creased demands for clothing and household goods. The average citl- zens will spend generously and will make this a memorable period of prosperity.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: University professors and other academic ex- perts will warn the public of the danger of too much pre-victory discussion of international reorgani- cations and readjustments. While the need of preparation for peace is acknowledged the stars have threatening portents that seem to presage suspicion and jealousles among the United Nations. Diplo- macy based on kindliness that avoids all that may arouse resent ment is recommended. Silence is golden where international ambi- tions are involved. 1s8s
 INTERNATIONAL Al F A I E 8: The chart of the Suns entry into Cancer is most encouraging to the Allies. Mars eliminating in Aries the ruling sign of Great Britain seems to presage decisive victories that will be followed by appeals for an armistice which should be declined The seers declare tn a 1 nothing except the most complete ] defeat of the Axis should be con sidered They emphasize that both Germany and Japan have proved that they have no respect for any bond or truce, while acts of treach cry and barbarism have put them beyond the pale of civilized stan- dards of negotiation.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of gain and pro- motions in the coming year Ro- nance will flower. Reverses at tht end of the year may be expected but care will prevent them.
 | Children born on this day prob ably will be generous, popular ane lucky. They should have love oi beauty and may possess artistic talents.

Jimmy Byrnes in the job of Tax Coordinator.
 It happens that Henry Morgen- thau, who has done good job as Secretary of the Treasury, is ex- tremely pernickety when it comes to anyone else barging in on his preserve.
 No one outside the White House knows it, but Henry actually went to the President some weeks ago to complain that Jimmy Byrnes was meddling in the tax picture. Henry didn't like it, said that taxes were his domain.
 FDR passed it off good-natured- ly, but did not back up his Secre- tary of the Treasury. After all, Jimmy Byrnes was then Economic Stablilizer and taxes are one of the most important means of pre- venting imitation and bringing about economic stabilization.
 When Byrnes heard about Mor- genthau's complaint, however, he decided to keep absolutely aloof from taxes. The President didn't want him to keep aloof, but Jimmy's s feelings were slightly ruffled and he let Henry handle taxes all by himself.
 If Byrnes had taken off his coat and gone up on Capitol Hill, the tax bill might have been different for he packs powerful persuasion.
 Later Bernie Baruch was offered Judge Vinson's job, replacing Byrnes as Economic Stabilizer. But Bernie refused unless he could control taxes. This would have put him over Morgenthau, and the Presi- dent refused to supersede Henry But now, Roosevelt has officially made Byrnes the Coordinator of Taxes. He will coordinate between Morgenthau and Congress.
