TOday'S Horoscope

II you celebrate a birthday today,
you are impetuous, lack patience,
have a sharp temper and a fondness
for change. You are ambitious and
your judgment is sound, but you
must learn to apply yourself to the
project at hand. You are gay and
pleasure-loving. Do not go off on a
spending spree today. Should you
make purchases or agreements, how
ever be on the spot to catch any
discrepancy between your prelim-
mary conversation ard the actu-
atty o receive.

POPULATION RISING

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5. (ANP)
The non-white population of the
United States, including persons in
the armed forces overseas, increas-
ed from 14,O96,394 to 14,309,880 in
1.5 per cent in the period 1943 to
1914, the bureau of the Genus re-
vealed.
Children under 5 years of age
constituted 1917 percent Of the total
non-white population in 1914 as
compared with 105 percent in
1943. Estimates given by the Gen.
sus show that the number of males
per 100 females declined from 95
in 1943 to 81 in 1914. This marked
change in the sex ratio is accounted
for by the movement of service
men to areas outside of continental
United States.

NEGRO SOL LDIERS GET HEAVY
COURT MARTIAL SENTENCES

HONOLULU, Feb. 5.-(ANP)-
Heavy court-martial sentences were
handed out to 73 Negro soldiers
here because they dared to mutiny
against assignment to army labor
battalions. Five of the 73 received
a total of 115 years at confinement
and hard labor, while the remaining
68 received sentences from eight
years up.
The soldiers involved are men,
bers of the Company E of the 132Oth
Engineers, general service regi-
ment, simply a labor battalion. All
73 were charged with refusing to
obey orders to continue work as
common laborers on an airfield on
Oahu on the night of July 81.
While none of the defendents was
identified by name, it is known that
one of the leaders was given 80
years, another 25 years and three
others received 20 years ago at con-
finement and hard labor. The mu-
tiny is said to reflect the growing
bitterness of colored servicemen
against the army's restriction of
most Negroes to labor battalions.
