HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT 1T

Making their own appraisal of the turbulent and
costly mpasse labor relations the Executive Council
of the American Federation of Labor has urged that
the National War Labor Board he abolished and gov
eminent restraints on wages be eliminated. Wage
rates." the board believes, should be permitted to
rise to their proper level through the free exercise of
collective bargaining"
This is open to objections, and particularly
in the light of William Green's comment that price
control" as distinguished from control of wage rates.
should be continued until the emergency is over"
The general idea is to let wages go up to enable
workers take home wartime pay despite shortened
working hours but to keep prices at their ceilings
This would be not merely nice, but absolutely
wonderful it would work. Unfortunately, it would
not Wages are ma jor item of manufacturing costs,
transportation COSTS and indeed all costs of goods and
services In many cases. wages represent virtually
all the value of the finished product delivered to the
consumer To allow wages to rise freely is to compel
price increases There is alternative, once the
decision is taken to facilitate general wage boosts
There could of course be but one result from this
policy-inflaton of serious character which would
work extreme hardship people of fixed or rela
lively fixed incomes, and also would deprive wage
earners of the benefits of their increases.

HOROSCOPE
'The stars incline
but do not compeP
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 4

This is not an important day in
planetary government but it should
aid serious thinking. A sign indl-
Gates need of mental discipline due
to social readjustments.
HEART AND HOME
Effects of long nervous strain
from war anxieties will prevail in
family relations. The stars indicate
increase in divorces and severe
hardships for children of broken
families. Women now must solve
unusual domestic problems.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS
The business outlook for the
month is promising. Merchants Will
profit substantially and manufact-
urers will produce amazing quanti-
ties of much-needed articles, espec-
tally household labor saving devices.
NATIONAL ISSUES
Churches and philanthropies will
be affected by subtle propaganda to
ueuldllQ LSilGCl pCiiditAco iOi NShS"U
ed enemies. The stars indicate that
many diplomatic japanese will de-
clare themselves converts to Christ
ianity.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Old prejudices and outdated mis-
conceptions of national characters
tics will appear again in Europe.
Faultfinding in relation to the
United Nations relief and provis-
ions for resumption of normal &C
tivities will cause hard feeling
where there should be gratitude, the
seers predict
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of hard work
which should bring success. Stu
dents should benefit extensively.
Children born on this day will be
exceedingly ambitious, conscious OF
extraordinary talents. Selfishness
may be their besetting fault.
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1945-11-03
MONDAY. NOVEMBER 5

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 5
The Sun in benefic aspect domin-
ates today which should be auspic-
ious for important activities, espec-
tally Governmental.
HEART AND HOME
Women are well directed today
which should be favorable to their
home affairs. Under this sway choice
, between home and outside interests
will be fortunate for the family.
This is a fairly favorable date for
wedding.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS
Hidden connections between Amer
lean corporations and foreign agen-
cies will occasion minor anxieties
in Wall Street. The stars seem to
warn that in this new age efforts to
profit through special privileges held
by small groups will be most unfor-
tunate.
NATIONAL ISSUES
Because of wartime jobs which
paid well many high school pupils
will continue to avoid claSSroOmS.
Educators now will meet further de-
lays in filling college quotas, for
Servicemen will be slow to return
to books
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
Although American kindness and
good fellowship will be misunder-
stood by defeated foes, important
lessons in human relations will be
slowly learned in Europe and Asia.
The stars promise splendid results
in occupied countries.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of unexpected
good fortune, much of which will be
hard-earned.
Children born on this day probably
will be remarkably bright, intelli-
gent and energetic. They will have
self confidence that should be pre-
vented from Becoming egotism.
