HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compel"
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16

An unimportant day in planetary direction, benefic aspects rule. There is a favorable sign for naval movements.
 HEART AND HOME: Signs are favorable for women today. Clear vision regarding plans important to the family is indicated Under this configuration there should be wise judgment and great patience. The seers foretell frictions in fam fly circles, owing to war conditions.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS; Easement in Government restrictions will stimulate trade in many lines. Be- ginning of conversion to peace-time industries will provide employment for many returning soldiers but warning is given against undue optimism about the future.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Subversive agencies will be dangerously busy through the coming winter. Again peace lovers will be deceived by enemy agencies that operate as organizations with turing titles. As trologers emphasize the activity of explosive influences conducive to revolutionary tendencies.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Uranus in Urine to Mars seems to presage firm military control of Italy and Germany for a long time. That Italy was an Axis partner must not be forgotten, tie seers admonish. Political changes in Russia will strengthen Stalin who will demand large concessions from Allied Associates.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of certain perplexities, but financial conditions should be satisfactory Impetuous impulses should be re- strained.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be exceedingly clever but too positive and independent for general popularity.

A few weeks ago we COM
mented on the necessity of
everyone residing in the area
and from the lake to Hough
between E. 55th to e. 70 Street
Ave. joining the Norwood Com
munity Council and in this
manner banding together to
achieve good living conditions,
stable property values, a resi-
dental neighborhood free from
danger Of fire and other haz-
ards including freedom from
nuisances, noise, smoke and
odors. We do not intend to let
this subject drop but intend to
hammer at you, until you, your
friends and neighbors become
members of the Council and
achieve these goals.
In order to keep the people
affected by the fire disaster
abreast of latest developments
we have the following to report.
The writer had a personal in
terview with Mr.. J. Robinson,
president of The East Ohio Gas
Company recently, in an effort
to determine just what the peo-
pie can expect in the way of
settlement of claims. Here is
the gist of our talk. The East
Ohio intends to settle on the
basis of deprecated values. In
other words if you had a radio
worth $4,000, for five years
and the estimated life Of t. he
radio is ten years, settlement
would be on the basis of the re-
naming life or $4,000; the
company will settle on the
value of your furnishings at the

time they were destroyed. AS
far as injuries are concerned,
loss Of earnings, etc. will be
taken into consideration. Where
the matter of life is concerned,
insurance statistics as to life
expectancy, normal earning
power will be factors con-
sidered.
Here is something else the
writer found out, whether cor
rect I do not know. If LEGAL
claim is not filed Within a Pc
riod of tu0o years, you will be
out of luck. Also, if any of your
friends or relatives working for
one company doing business on
East Ohio Gas Co. property at
the time of disaster who hap
pened to die, they have dual
claims, one with the Gas Com
pany and the other with the
company they were working
for.
The writer found Mr.. Robin
son as we'll as other officials of
the company very congenial
and anxious to have the people
come in to discuss settlement of
their claims. All we can add is
that you make a careful study
of your losses, take advantage
of the help offered by the May
or's Committee on Disaster, go
to the Gas Company and see
what they will offer. If agree
ment is not possible, the courts
will be the last resort. 1t may
be however that some sort of
an arbitration board may be ap-
pointed by the Mayor before
this last step is taken.
On leaving Mr.. Robinson en-
phatically stated that the Gas
Company does not intend to re-
build the liquid storage tanks.
What to Do About the
Devastated Area
h This is indeed perplexing
problem. The Red Cross is wait
ing the outcome of claim settle

The City Planning Commission

people intend to do; the people
are waiting pending develop
ments of what will happen to
their old neighborhood and so it
goes on. I.
In an effort to start solving
this knotty problem, the May

Big Advance Reported
 By Fire6ghters' Union

More than 14,O00 new members were added to the ranks of the Inter national Firefghters' Union during the past two years, Secretary Treas urer George J. Richardson revealed this week. Eighty-two new locals were chartered-among them Balti- more, Los Angeles and San Francisco, Richardson said. In some cities, dic- tatorial officials are still trying to pre- vent unionization of hrefghters, but their opposition is being steadily over come, he declared.

 OPA agents are said to have pur- chased many garments which fell apart the first time they were washed. Mems, Women's and children's cloth ing was not worth carrying home.
 In many instances consumers are forced to pay great deal more than ceiling prices for inferior merchant disc.
 Manufacturers are declared to have dropped entirely low-price garments or to have replaced them with merchandise of inferior qual- ity.
 Responsibility is placed on the War Production Board, more par iicularly on its textile division. which is manned by representatives of textile mill owners.
 The OPA, the Journal said, lacks enforcement powers, while the WIPE could control the situation through the allocation of materials. The WIPE has been asked to adopt this safe guard but has failed to do SO.
 One highly-placed OPA official was quoted as saying that the only remedy is clothing rationing, which would en- able the OPA to set quality standards to compel compliance with price ceilings.

policy" he said. 'sWe have set as our objective the abolition of slavery and of compulsory labor everywhere. 1t is incOnceivable we should now call for continuation of slave labor after we have de- feated tOttalitarianism.
 In another important address, AFL Secretary Treasurer George Meany blasted trend toward what he called bureaucratic paternalism" by those in government who believe they know what is best for labor" This type of paternalism, even though it comes from officials sympathetic with labor, is as vicious as the paternalism in private industry against which or ganized labor fought for years, MT. Meany said.
 Assistant Secretary of Labor Dan w. Tracy praised the building trades workers for their splendid record in wartime construction and for blazing the trail in wage stabil- ization for the industry even before nationwide wage controls were put into effect.
 Colonel C. D. Barker of the Army Engineers called for thorough advance planning of construction projects ready to go when the war ends. A similar suggestion was made by R. C. Kirkpatrick, labor relations director of the Federal Works Agency. The construction industry, Kirkpatrick said, provides logical source of jobs i'll the transition period.
 Other speakers included Joseph D. Keenan, WIPE Vice-Chairman; off, cia1s of the Associated General Con- tractors; Governor James H. Davis of Louisiana who is a member of the AFL Screen Actors Guild; and Lee Johnson, executive vice-president, Ma tional Housing Conference.
 All vice-presidents of the depart ment were reelected. They are l.. P. Lindelof, Painters; Richard J. Gray, Bricklayers; William J. Me- Sorley, Lathers; Daniel J. Tobin, Teamsters; W. L.
