Benefic aspects rule strongly today which should be especially profit able to purveyors of amusement. Hotels and restaurants should bene- fit substantially all this month.
 HEART AND HOME
 Women are under a rarely fortun- ate configuration today which should inspire and stimulate them. Girls may expect romance which brings happiness. Young civil engineers as suitors will be peculiarly lucky.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Although the United States is the only conservative Government among world powers, heavy aspects in the Neptune cycle warn that there will be trend toward the left as we compete with other peoples whose business is goyer,a r,a esa atz755 Cir ts=oiieu ss =ooiieu

 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Expectation of the complete dis solution of the Japanese Empire was general among many who read the stars. Every vestige of past systems must he erased before de- mocracy can be established. For many months much secret plotting by richards is prophesied. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of changes, mental and physical. These will be ultimately beneficial

In addition to good cabinet mem- bers, it requires skilled assistants in the White House.
 FDR had a weak cabinet, but he had around him in the White House a group of expert, energetic trouble-shooter who knew govern ment inside and out and served as a flying football department to go into this department or that on special jobs. What Truman needs today is a few Tommy Corcorans. Instead he has surrounded him self with a bunch of genial, we'll meaning gentlemen, largely from Missouri or Mississippi, who know little about government and spend almost as much time swimming in the White House pool as they do grappling with the vital problems of postwar America.
 This is the most obvious week spot for Truman to remedy The others are not easy to repair. In fact the political reactions from the labor situation may be beyond repair.
 These are some of the problems Truman faces, plus the general problem that after any war there is a depressing, disillusioning let down. AS qualifications for meeting these problems Truman has sin cerity, honesty, energy, courage and a reasonable amount of intelli- gence. But he is seriously lacking in experience and governmental know-how. Let's hope he picks up more of the latter before the air becomes too full of dead cats. After all, for better or for worse, he's our President until January, 1949- and that's quite long way off.

DEWEY WAS RIGHT

3-Truman has let himself be dominated by the military when it comes to conscription, the garbled discharge of veterans and the use of ships for bringing men home. Politically he has played right into the hands of Governor Dewey who in the campaign of l944 predicted this would happen
 Truman's whole experience as Chairman of his Investigating Committee showed him how in- efficient the Army and Navy could be when it came to shipping and manpower Yet as President, he trusted the very same men whom he did not trust as Senator. As a result, thousands of soldiers and sailors, plus several million mem bers of their families are bitter. And when any President loses a big block of political support, he undermines his own strength with Congress.
 TRUMAN LACKS BRAIN TRUST

writing a letter to the Rules Com mittee urging immediate action. Roosevelt never wrote a letter to the Rules Committee during all his 12 long years in office.
 Truman has been equally forth right in regard to full employment, unemployment compensation, anti trust suits, and offending his own friends by tackling the question of submerged oil Roosevelt. though officially committed to this pro- gram, sometimes ducked. Truman not only hasn't ducked, he has led with his chin. And whether you agree with him or not. you can't help admire his courage.
 Republicans who didn't like the Truman Roosevelt policies will agree that taken man for man, his cabinet far surpasses FDR's in ability, political acumen and gen. eral stature Why then has he failed to get off the ground, while his predecessor working with less able men and the same program, kept in the air?
 FOUR TRUMAN TROUBLES
 The answer lies in four general reasons:
 1-Roosevelt had the gift of going on the radio and swaying the public over the heads of Congress. Truman lacks the radio technique, the theatrics, the ability to make that appeal. He is just as sincere as RooSevelt-perhaps more so. He is desperately trying to do a good job. But he can't whip Congress into line by mobilizing public opinion. That was the most power ful weapon Roosevelt had.
 2-Truman has been seriously wounded by the very group he has consistently sought to help-labor. Unauthorized strikes, such as the Washington, D. C., transit strike and the nationwide vote walk-out of telephone workers convinced many people that Truman-Roose- welt policies of aiding labor had gone too far Hll the strikes have hurt Truman politically, but the wildcat strikes have ruined Tru- mans hand when it comes to social legislation and is bound to have it's effect Qn-tll44ee- TIext election

utes) is up, remove the jars, stand
them out of draft and several
inches apart to cool. If most of
the pulp goes to the top OF the
jar and the juice stays at the bot
tom, it is because the tomatoes were
poor quality, picked green. packed
too loose. or the water in the can
ner boiled too hard.
The cold pack, water-bath proc
essed method is probably preferred
by the majority of authorities on
the subject but for the last few
years there has been a trend toward
hot packing.
Selection and preparation for hot
packing is the same as for cold
packing. After the cores and skins
are removed, the tomatoes are
CHARTERED and cooked until they
| have Boiled gently for minutes.
Then they are put into hot jars and
processed 20 minutes in hot
water bath Gamer.
Boil Tomatoes Slowly
Open kettle? That's what causes
most of the spoilage! Those who
are not willing to adopt the more
modern methods should remember
that the prepared tomatoes should
be boiled slowly for 20 minutes,
then poured into hot jars. The ket-
tie of tomatoes and the pans of
water holding jars, caps, and rub
bers, should stay over the heat
so that jar may be lifted out Of
boiling water, placed on cloth
folded in a pan, then filed with
boiling tomatoes, and sealed light
ming quick.
| Mason jars which are to be sealed
with zinc caps and Ideal jars may
be filed to the top but should not
be overfowed. About one-haf inch
head space should be left when
glass top or two-piece metal Vacu-
Seal caps are used.
| Yes, open kettle canning is hot
work and results are uncertain, so
why not now, since food is so price
less, change to better methods? Of
course, the newest is not always the
best. For example, oven canning,
new in comparison to some of the
others, has been given fair trial
and condemned because it is I'M
| reliable and dangerous.
A great many persons like to
process tomatoes ten minutes at five
pounds in steam pressure cooker.
This is safe enough but tends to
overlook the tomatoes, so our best
home Gamers use a water bath for
processing all acid foods.

turers of glass fruit jars, sees moth
ing unusual in the situation because
she finds it far easier to teach
person who has never canned than
to '.umteach' one backed by years
Of haphazard experience.
To prove her point, Miss Kim
brough calls attention to the fact that
tomatoes rate top place in both ease
of canning and spoilage after can
ming. What's the answer? Sheer
carelessness plus old-fashioned
open-kettle canning. Anybody can
rig up a water-bath Gamer for proc
essing fruits and tomatoes. A lard
can or wash boiler, fitted with
some sort of platform to hold the
jar half an inch or SO from the bot
tom of the utensil is all that is
needed for a water-bath.
Carelessness Causes Spoilage
Spoilage of water-bath processed
tomatoes is usually traceable to
carelessness in selection and prepa-
ration or failure to follow the manu-
facturer's latest instructions. Pre-
war instructions should in most in
stances be forgotten. Remembering
them gets lot of old-timerS into
trouble.
Tomatoes should ripen on the vine
and be used as soon as they are
firm ripe. They should be canned
the day they are gathered, but if
kept cool they may stand as
much as "a hours before process
ing. This is neptioned because some
persons must depend upon a mar
ket- for their supply. Any tomato
containing decayed spot. no mat
ter how small, should be discarded.
Canning those from which such
spots have been removed leads to
spoilage. Sound over-ripe ones and
those from which small spots have
been cut may be made into chilli
sauce or ketchup never, never
into juice. Juice requires sound
tomatoes.

ner should be ready before one

have no wire basket, square OF

Of holding tomatoes for scalding.
Simply put enough tomatoes for fill
ing one or two jars on the cloth,
catch up the four ends of the square,
and hold the bag in boiling water
from one-half to one minute. Then,
if you like, dip the bag in cold
water, making it a little easier to
remove the skins. Next use a sharp
pointed knife to remove every bit
of the core, slip the skins, cut away
any green or white spots and drop
the tomato into a clean hot jar.
