HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not compel"
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 1S

l.,
 Benefic aspects are strong under this configuration, which encour- ooes meditation and reflection. The planetary government IS promising for reform movements, especially those that start in the home.
 HEART AND HOME: Women who demonstrated ability in many lines of public service now must lead in changing social customs that encourage laxities of speech and action. From the home shouio issue power to inspire as well as to protect the rising generations.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Under the goad of necessity American sclen- lists and inventors have assured the establishment of many mover enterprises. Opportunities Tor pulio- ing fortunes will be numerous, 1t IS forecast. Technical training will be in wide demand.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: How best to aid persons nervously affected py war service or home anxietles VIII absorb attention more and more Although psychiatrists will con- tribute greatly to restoration or normal mental conditions, the seers predict that much will be acnleVeo through spiritual processes.
 INTERNATIONAL A FF A IR 5: According to recent world chart, the United States and the Soviet Union represent opposite poles ln the United Nations. There IS a sign that may mean that the United States will lead in shaping peace conditions, restricting Russia in certain ambitions.
 Persons whose birthdate IL IS have the augury of year Of ex- banding interests. There is much good luck presaged.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be popular and successful kindly and industrious. Useful car eers beckon to them.

Weather report: High, 37 low, 34; cloudy.

MONDAY. FEBRUARY 1s

MONDAY, FEBRUARY l9
 Adverse aspects dominate today which should be favorable for what has been accomplished but unlucky for initiative.
 HEART AND HOME: Astrologers warn against nasty decisions and impulsive actions. War weariness may be felt so keenly that many young persons will indulge in what ever promises amusement. Unwise love affairs will multiply.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: In the decade since the Securities Act was passed bankers have been helpful in making a success of the law that assures protection to the public and provides problems for investment concerns. The stars seem to presage certain changes in the system that extends benefits.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: There is a portend that warns of future con- ditions affecting consumers of to- bacco and alcoholic beverages. H. creased cost is again prognostl- cated. The stars presage expanding demands instead of restrictions in the sales of both commodities.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Spring will bring serious problems of world trade. From April until october endless conferences regard ing treaties will be held. There are signs that indicate need of great foresight and determination among our diplomats.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of ac- tivity in novel vacations. It is wises to proceed with caution.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will be industrious and ambi- tious but fond of change and travel Many may be cratic in tempera- ment and unusually talented.

Howard Smith oI Virginia, all try ing to stall for time to prevent Henry Wallace's confirmation, per- sisted.
 In the end, Southern Democrats joined with Republicans on the Rules Committee to prevent the George Bill from reaching the floor of Congress. Congressional leaders are so riled they will try to bypass the Rules Committee In fact they are so sore at the recalcitrant Rules Committee they will try te bypass it regularly.

Most of them are now working on rail- road CT other industrial jobs.
 RULES COMMITTEE RUDENESS
 Many members of Congress, long accustomed to hurly-burly debate, said that new high for rudeness was reached when the Rules Con- mittee heard the House Banking and Currency Committees request for consideration of the George Bill which would strip Henry Wal lace and the Commerce Department of the lending agencies.
 Ohio's fiery Republican Congress man, Clarence Brown, teed off with a vitriolic cross examination of Democratic Congressman Brent Spence of Kentucky, Chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, which had passed the George Bill and wanted it reported to the floor for vote.
 How much time did your com- mittee give to this legiSlation?" asked Brown.
 T don't think that has any real bearing on the issue" replied

NEW NARROWER PROGRAM

War Manpower Commission Di- rector Paul McNutt may put new program into effect very soon in all light labor areas. This would limit employers in non-essential or essential industries to a cer- tain percentage of the number of workers they employed last year. This ceiling employee program has already been tried out in Chicago and proven successful.
 Chicago employers in non-essen- tial and less-essential industries will be required to cut the number Of employees on the payroll 10 per cent by March IS.

USE TAX is NUISANCE" TAX

The Montana Automobile association has gone On record
urging congress to repeal the federal automobile use tax, some
times referred to as the stamp tax or nuisance tax. 1t is our guess
that SO percent of our drivers, including internal revenue field
men, will heartily endorse the associations stand.
The tax really had no basis for being levied, except the
bald-faced statement that the government needed more money
For SIS, the car owner received a piece of engraved gummed
paper to affix more or less permanently to his windshield. 1t
turned deputy revenue collectors into sort of glorhied traffic
cops who walked along the curbs to check parked cars and
haul in those luckless ones who had neglected to buy the stamps.
Our whole theory of auto taxation is based on an outmoded.
3Oyear-old conception that the automobile is a luxury like an
expensive fur coat or a bottle of perfume that should be taxed
all the traffic can bear. AS a matter of fact, cars have come to be
necessities. But still we continue to pile all sorts of taxes on
them.
Undoubtedly the fairest levy made on motorists is the gaso-
hne tax Tor construction and maintenance of our highways. 1t is
proper that those who use the roads should pay for their I'D
keep.
But otherwise we believe taxing of motor vehicles has
gone far enough and, in the case of the use tax, too far.

TIA Paul D. Tutor, husband OF
Mrs. Alice M. Tutor of Fort Peck
has been awarded the bronze star
medal for heroic achievement with
Company c of the 18th tank bat

public relations office of the 10th

Tutor, mechanic, braved the enemy
fire for four hours to assist in Suc-

citation reads. His exemplary %
duct reflects great credit upon HIM
self and the military forces of the
United States"
His division gained early fame as
the first defenders of Bastogne, the
stumbling block of the desperate
German counteroffensive into the
Ardennes last December. It was the
first in the Third army to invade
Germany and the first to capture
a major German city, Trier. It was
first to smash in Hitler's Wanted
inner fortress on the western front
and first division in the Seventh
army to enter Austria.

WHO PAID FOR LEND-LEASE?

President Truman has been praised on one hand and crti-
clzed on the other for his termination of our lendlease program
to our allies. Many forget, evidently, that under terms of the law.
1t was to be terminated when hostlities ended.
ana we think, too, that those who are referring to Uncle
oam' Santa Claus" may be forgetting a few things. AS a matter
of fact, the Canadian term, mutual aid" is more descrintivo Of
what we call lend-lease.
Let us, In our imagnations, follow the course of a tank
which we gave to the Russians. We made it: the Russians ,sed
II" 1t may have been that, at Staingrad, its crew killed 50 Ger
mans before the Russians and the tank were DESTROYED The
Russians used the tank to good cause; it and others belnod hint
the force OF the German attack. We gave the tank. the Russians
gave hive lives and, in giving them, eliminated some 50 of the
enemy who later could have taken so American lives on tho
western 'front.'. Who paid the highest price for the tank? Montana
wheat may have been used to help feed the little ENGLISH oir1
who lost her parents in the blitz. How can vo rackor +ba+ oer49
1t seems to us that, with some notable executions lend
lease was a pretty good investment for the United States. In tbe
end 1T saved us lives, if not money. There is no way 70 balance
bookkeeping between death and dollars.

Sawfly Hits
Many Fields
Near Opheim
BY Courier Correspondent

OPHEIM-Almost all farmers are
busy combining their own fields or
assisting others, with a minimum of
machinery to do so. Each day that
the wind blows the sawfly damage
is more and more noticeable. Those
which would have had a fair yield
ordinarily are finding this pest very
costly to their crops. Many are
already discussing what to raise next
year that is less likely to attract the
sawfly. Others are selling whole
fields for feeding as it doesn't pay
to cut them.
