As Ghosts Look On
Cincinnati Enquirer

tCncllnau Enqurer)
 Ghosts of the Hohenzollerns hovered about the conference tables in Potsdam listening, silent to the talk that went there The faces about the vast rooms where the Kaiser Wilhelm once walked will be strange to the wraths of former kings and emperors. They will be the faces of people the kings of long ago called common
 Great dreams have been built at Potsdam Will helm and his advisers had imagined plans there which they thought would bring them control of Europe and large slice of Asia Their programs based, these thought, in righteousness for they con- sdered always that God with them-and with them alone But they learned at Sossons, the Marne, verdun and Bclleau Woods that God was with the commoners.
 While the Kaiser, defeated and broken, chopped wood in Holland, Austrian to the power of emperor-although he never called himself by that name. Htlers dreams of empire, however, were more grandiose elaborate than the imaginngs of the gttering court which surrounded Wilhelm. Some of the same men who trod the Kaisers Potsdam carpets advisers to Hitler. They saw the same ending of their dreams of aggression
 But the ghosts of the Hohenzolerns- s-those who scorned the common man of their day-would have scorned too, Hitler and his NaA horde. In the little paperhanger, who made himself something of a god there was nothing of the blood called royal Hitler himself a usurper in the eyes of the old ars- tocracy although he aimed toward the goals the emperors had sought
 The Kaiser and his clan gone. Hitler and his Nazi party are dead. As said only their ghosts present at Potsdam today But others are there in the flesh-waitng, perhaps outside the gates but alive and dangerous nonetheless. These are the men who made it possible for the Kaiser to start his of aggression; for Hitler to rise to mighty place although a passing one-in world affairs. These the German militarists mghtier than the Hohenzol- lerns mightier than the party the paperhanger build ed. The Prussan military aristocracy has survived the kings and the commoners It hopes to survive the coming democracy to survive long enough and in sufficient strength, to back some new aggressive conflict

that the rate of taxation must not be so high as to impair the sources of revenue.
 ITO impair these sources in country of pioneers, where is desirable the contrary to afford positive means of encouragement and where the prosperity of one industry often causes the establishment of others and promote the rapid settlement of the territory is to commit grievous error'
 This sounds like logical statement to us-but how different the viewpoint is today
 Clark also said:
 We suffer greatly from nonresident administra- tion."
 That hasn't changed bit. Congress has been told about it many times to no avail. As matter of fact the very first Legislature in 1913 sent in resolution asking that administrative appointees from the Governor on down" be bona fde residents of Alaska, and defining such bona fide residents only actual residents of Alaska whose residence does not depend upon political office " Subsequent legislatures have sent numerous such pointed resolutions and memorials to Congress for good many years.

 Hitler informed him that in case of suicide nothing would happen to the family. On the contrary, he would take care of the family.
 My father left the house dress led in uniform, with his Marshall's Staff We accompanied him to ear where the two Generals greet ed him with Heil Hitler!
 Fifteen minutes later we were Ealled by telephone and informed my Father had been brought to a mili- tary hospital in Ulm by two Gener- hls, having died of a brain stroke"

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
MONDAY. AUGUST 6

M ONDAIs hOoOOI
 Adverse planetary aspects seem to be strong today, although there is a good sign for business initiative. Labor IS under malefic influences.
 HEART AND HOME In love or domestic affairs judg- ment may be untruStworthy today. Girls are warned against impulsive- ness. Nasty marriages may be most unfortunate this month; restlessness and discontent will prevail among young and old
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 The nations largest wheat crop will have a stimulating effect on the stock market but the food shortage in Europe will drain our great store of grains of every sort.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Wise measures to prevent juvenile delinquency should not be neglected in vacation time. Astrologers warn that parents must accept responsi- bility for the guidance and protec- tion of their children, but the stars indicate an increase in serious prob lems affecting teen-age boys and girls.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Tn Canada and the United States women are to attain greater impor- tance in public affairs than they have previously in modern history For the Western Hemisphere the stars presage astonishing achieve ments not yet foreshadowed in newspapers.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of good for tune to which distant lands contri- bute Women should be especially lucky.

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 bat do not compel"
SUNDAY, AUGUST 5

Mildly benefic aspects ruletoday, which should be suspicious for min- isters of high rank. Benefits for the Catholic Church are forecast.
 HEART AND HOME
 Religious instruction in homes will be widely advocated to aid Bible study in schools and colleges. Recog- nition that sickness in the souls of nations is not confined to foreign lands will awaken Americans to ser ious interest in needed return to old time standards of life.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Great changes in the transporta- ton industry are predicted by the seers who forecast development in direct-heat motive power and wide use of the jet engine and gas tur- bine.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Tax consciousness will be keen as Autumn plans are made for normal business. The stars seem to preSage little relief for long time; the cost of war will be heavy for many months
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 According to astrology the link be- tween Russia and the United States must be strong through all the years of reconstruction. A cycle of history pivots on the two nations which are to expand marvelously in political and economic strength.
