SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16

Until evening benefic aspects pre- vail. Reason for national reJolc- ing is indicated. News of great im- portance is presaged.
 HEART AND HOME
 Interest in religious observances will be accented at this time when there will be causes for Americans to be especially thankful for their democrary. Women will be active this week in constructive movements for the general welfare.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Cotton will focus attention in the stock markets. Improved methods of raising and gathering crops will bring profits to southern planters but as result new problem of unemployment is foreseen.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Returning servicemen who have brought back novel words and odd habits of thought, disturbing to conventional families, will expect much of modern girls. With strange inconsistency they will desire old fashioned dignity, modesty and re- ticence.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 India continues under the good sign which has had strong influence since June. Ultimately better un- derstanding among the religious minorities is forecast and indepen- dence is not a vague promise. In- dustrial progress will be marked.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the agury of a year of healthy re- bound from unpleasant war exper- fences. Virgo folk have promis- ing outlook.
 Children born on this day probably will be endowed with beauty and talent. They are likely to be of medium stature, well proportioned.

AMBASSADORS WIVES

Last week this column reported that Mrs. Ed Pauley, wife of the U. S. Preparations Ambassador to Moscow and former Treasurer of the Democratic National Commit tee, was listed to receive $25 a day expenses while accompanying her husband to Russia. Since then, I have received further information that Mrs. Pauley, although listed by the State Department as an official member of the party, de- clined to accept the $25 per diem. In all fairness, this fact should be set straight, and I am delighted to do so herewith.
 However, I still believe it a highly debatable point, when a million or so CHS are not per mitted to have their wives come abroad, that American higher-ups should take their wives with them to overseas war areas. After all, the average American soldier now 
 not seen his wife for more than a year. But the U & Ambassador, making a special trip to Moscow or London, is away from his family for only a few weeks.
 When the Pauley Preparations Mission arrived in western Europe, the party was split up, because of limited accommodations in Moscow. One group, including some of the best experts on separations, were told to remain in Frankfurt, Ger many, because there was no room to house them in Moscow. But Mrs. Pauley, despite limited accommo- dations, went on to Moscow.
 Later, she also visited Potsdam for the Big Three" session. She was the only American wife present. Mrs. Truman and Mrs. Byrnes, wife of the Secretary of State, remained at home. And dur ing the last session of the Big Three" Mrs. Pauley sat in the gal lery, a privileged witness to the historic ceremony. Many U. s. and British experts who had spent weeks preparing for this big climax and who had burned midnight oil whipping the agreement into shape, were barred from seeing the con- suInation of their work due to lack of space.
 (Note-On August 4, this column reported that the Office of War Information had given Mrs. R. A. Mcclure, wife of Gen. Mcclure, a privileged job as receptionist in OWI's Paris office, thus permitting her to be near her husband in Germany Immediately after publ- cation of this disclosure, the owl received an order from the White

Farm wages are higher than ever, though still a long way from ship yard and aviation factory pay. So, somehow or other, either farm wages must go up, or war workers must go back to less money on the farm In the former case, farmers will have to get more for their crops, which, of course, means a higher cost of living in the city.

Shine Boys At
Phoenix Under
Police Supervision

PHOENIX, Aug. 9-Sidewalk shine
boys in Phoenix now apply licensed
shines to the shoes of passersby.
For they are regulated and each
must conform to certain rules or be
barred from the streets, as all of
them were barred for two weeks.
Following protests from merchants
that the boys were noisy, annoyed
the public and often broke windows
or did other damage, the police
confiscated 70 shoe-shine kits from
lads II to 16. These were not re-
turned until licensing system had
been worked out, unofficial but Of
ficially blessed.
The local 2O-3O Club interested
itself in the boys, most of whom are
from poor. families and need the
nickles they earn. Finally the Gold
Spot Shoe Shine Club was organized.
Marshall Manley of the 20-3O Club
is manager, under police supervi-
sion.
Manley issued membership cards
and licenses to the 10, assigned four
to each block in the downtown dis
trict. A license is valid as long as
the holder tends to business and
does not indulge in improper con-
duct. AS licenses are revoked or
boys drop out, their places will be
filled from a waiting list.
