HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline

SUNDAY, JUNE 20

Good and bad planetary influ- ences mingle in the outlook for to- day with adverse aspects marked. The morning news may bring sur cease of disappointments and ap- prehensions. Good cheer from the Navy is indicated.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are under the best possible direction of the stars and should find today memorable for its domestic happi- ness and religious inspiration. Many evidences of Aquarian influences will be apparent in the study of the Bible and in the general interest in prophecies, long discarded and seldom interpreted The fact that war is to purge the world of much of it's materialism will be widely recognized. The new order of things will bring realization of long cher ished ideals regarding human des- tiny. M
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: This week in the world of commerce and trade should be exceedingly active. Im- mense quantities of war supplies will be shipped to battle fronts. The submarine. menace will be restrict

RATIoNING THE SENATE

The trials of war and the disas- ters of rationing have not altered the fact that the favorite dish of Senators in the Senate Restaurant is ham and eggs.
 Furthermore. the ration board has been a lot more generous with the Senate Restaurant in the last few months. The manager has been able to buy hams more readily, and even have fair steady flow of steaks. Total number of ration points allotted to the Senate Res taufant7 whicl: serves the public as well as the Senators--is 22,000 for two months period.
 Among the unrationed foods, the Senators are going strong for spag . hetti, shad roe, and deep dish cherry pie. The pie is a company dish served at the special luncheons for such distinguished guests as An thony Eden, Winston Churchill, and Madame Chiang Kai-shek Aci tually, it was put on the .'com- pany" menu not by Senator {, but by Congressman Sol Bloom, Chairman of he House Foreign Affairs Committee. because cherry pie happens to be a favorite of Sols.
 Among vegetables, the Senators are going strong for black-eyed peas, kale, and spinach.
 Rationing is no problem for Wee President Wallace who has h e same luncheon for days on end. The tray carried to his private of- flee behind the Senete chamber consists of a -bread-cheese sand

NAYY,S OIL DIAL

O1 reason why the Justice and Interior Departments were so amazed over Secretary Knox's lease of the Navy's Elk Hills oil lands was because the Government had just finished about ten years of litigation with Standard Oil of Cal ifornia to secure the return of one section of these very same oil lands-the second richest oil reserve in the world.
 This was the famous Section 36" case, concerning one section of Elk Hills, which went all the way up to the Supreme Court before .he section was finally returned to he Government.
 Section 36 got out of Government hands under an old law which provided that every Section 16 and Section 36 of the public domain should go to the state for public school purposes. Thus section 36 vent to the State of CeIfornia, which in turn sold it. Late. Stan dard oil of California acquired It.
 However, when it was found that Section 36 was rich in oil, the Gov ernment sued to get it back on the basis that public lands cannot be given to the state if they are known to be mineral lands.
 So after years of litigation, Sec. tion 36 finally was returned by Standard Oil of California to the Government, only to. be leased by

MONDAY, JUNE 2l

MONDAY, JUNE 2l <tk
 Until the afternoon of this day adverse planetary aspects are dem inant. Later the stars encourage initiative and determined progress in business affairs.
 HEART AND HOME: Summer pastimes will be general as means of escape from anxieties regarding loved ones in war service and many original methods of informal enter tainment will be devised. Today should be fortunate for women who engage in the usual domestic tasks They should avoid seeking public service under this configuration Girls may find today disappointing in love affairs. Misunderstanding and broken engagements are nu- merous under this sway which en- courages inconsistency 4
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: The stock market should show a general up- ward tendency as our successes in the war are recorded Experts warn, however, that it is unwise to spec lulate on the probability of sud- den collapse of Italy or Germany The end of the war will cause fair adjustment of stock values, but this happy date may be far off. It 1 is safe to expect many months of conflict with setbacks here and there for the United Nations.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Possible candidates in the next national election will be widely discussed with contradictory appraisements. Partisan feeling may be intense. A former presidential nominee will continue in the limelight and will gain wide publicity through daring comments and reckless independ- ence. Those who read the stars have predicted that there will be no change in the nations Chief Executive until the close of the war.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: The handicap that United Nations must overcome, owing to lack of preparation for the war, will be most apparent in the conflict in the Pacific where the Japanese have made use of their time in strength ening island defenses. Severe losses will be the price of our long indif- ference to Asiatic ambitions. AS the results of educational advantages and friendly offices extended by the United States the war in the Paci- fic will continue long after the Axis powers are defeated. There is a sign that our western coast will be at- tackled before the end of the Sum- mer, but invasion may not be at- tempted.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of unusual experience. Financial gain and happy romance are indicated.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be sturdy in body and brilliant in mind. They will prove loyal, thoughtful and useful cit izens.

ed to an extent which gives promise of early overcoming in a way most fortunate for transportation of United Nations supplies. Plans for postwar business safeguards will be made after many radical sugges- tions have been offered. Conserva- tive methods will prevail.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Purging of groups of men willing to profit through war emergencies will prove beneficial, but black markets will operate along new lines, it is fore told. The sort of patriotism which is measured by the stomach will be amazingly extensive through the Summer but there is sign warning of national events which compel unlimited support of the United States Government. If the signs are rightly interpreted the great est of democracies is to suffer many of the extreme realities of all-out war, including bombings east and west.
 INTERNATIONAL A FF AIR s: Brilliant progress by the Allies is indicated for the next fortnight General Macarthur is subject to aspects of great promise. There is a probability that peace negotiations inspired by Germany or Japan may be started as prospects of defeat become evident. The seers prophecy that complete victory must be at tained by the United Nations who will continue to fight until abject surrender is necessary for what is left of Asiatic aggressors.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of varied ex- periences. Benefits will come to the aged while the young engage ir public service.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be endowed with artistic talents which may aid them in un- usual vacations that belong to the postwar period.

 Talk about mechanization you will, there's still no substitute for wits This thought is revived by one of the better stories out of England
 The sky over the British countryside was too murky for flying So flight commander decided to use the day to test the skill of his men in finding their way back to base after getting them lost He took them in a bus through twisting lanes and wind ing roads twelve miles away from the airfeld then six miles back and then dumped them.
 The prize was 100 cigarettes for the first man back to base the fliers set to work organizing their return The navigators used a milometer and compass Others tried the compass alone. Still others calculated the in the devious route, and some tried to remember landmarks. But they were still lost"
 While all this heavy calculation was going on, the flight commander got back to base and found that two--just two-of his Host" men had returned ahead of him He demanded their report. It read as follows;

How to Adjust Eye Goggles

Eyecup goggles are simply and easily adjusted. Only two parts of this type goggle are adjustable: the bridge across the nose and the headband.
 To adjust ball-chain type bridge, unscrew lens rings and remove lens from either eyecup. Release chain by lifting lever inside eye cup. Letting out on chain widens distance between eyecups-makes bridge longer-for a man whose eyes are set wide apart. Tighten ing up on chain narrows distance between eyecups makes bridge whOrter-for a man whose eyes are set close together. When bridge Is adjusted to correct length for comfort, re-engage lever, cut off surplus chain, and replace lens and lens rings.
 Fitting Made Easy
 To adjust lnk-chain bridge, hold one eyecup and twist the other eyecup until bridge is proper length. Twisting either clOckwise or counter-clockwise causes bridge first to lengthen to its full limit end then to shorten to narrowest width.
 To adjust one-piece headband, tighten until two fingers can be dipped under the band Without stretching it-when goggles are in correct position before eyes, and headband Is properly placed around base of skull. Headband should be worn flat-not twisted.
 Properly adjusted eyecup gog- g1es do not sag or dig into face, nor leave openings for chips or harmful light rays to enter. Care lessness in wearing eyecup goggles upside down causes needless dis comfort.
