HOROSCOPE E "The stars incline

FRIDAY, JANUARY 4

Adverse planetary aspects are ac- tive today but there is a sign of premise for new year projects. HEART AND HOME
 The seers stress that thousands of war workers have as difficult prob lems of readjustment as have re- turning service folk. Girls determ- ined to avoid household tasks will compete for jobs this month when there may be general resentment among men who have fought abroad.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Before the end of the month there will be grave repercussions from widespread strikes. Prosperity fore told from the posting of the stars will be hampered seriously at the peak of the nations buying power.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Growing opposition to Government control will be marked when Con- gress turns to our internal problems Those who read the stars declare A certain amount of industrial regi- mentation is imperative through 1946.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Prolonged difficulty in teaching principles of democracy to defeated foes is prognosticated. There will be secret machinations that bode ill for coming months.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year in which they may put romance before all other desires. Capricorn folk are likely to be unfortunate in love affairs.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be dreamers who need care full guiding to develop their talents. Practical viewpoints must be con- stantly presented to them. Copyright, 1946)

QUIET COUNCIL
 MEET SEEN FOR
 TOMORROW EVE

Mayor Ernest Parsons today de- clared that, to his knowledge, no business outside of the routine category is on tap for Juneau's Common Council when it sits down to its first regular meeting of the year 1946, tomorrow eve- ming at o'clock in the City Hall.
 There are a few leftover items that were referred to committee but none promises any excitement.

the closing of war plants threw many people out of work following V-J Day.
 Actually, part of this large labor force already has been dissolved to great extent Many of these unemployed were elderly men who normally wouldn't have worked during the war years, and have since retired from the labor market. Many wives and daughters, also, who were employed in war plants, are returning to their homes.
 In addition, college enrollments will reach the highest in the na- tions history, with great numbers of ex-servicemen taking advantage of the educational benefits under the c. I. Bill of Rights. This will take many more off the labor market.
 Besides the increases in the volume of production by manu- featuring industries, national en- ployment also will be benefited by greatly increased activity in the construction industry, due to the housing shortage.
 Another important factor in the employment picture is the fact that numerous G. Is will have trade skills they picked up in the service and thus be better qualified for jobs in industry.
 The Army. Navy and Marine Corps, for instance, trained large numbers of men for communica- tions and the Signal Corps and they can now look forward to jobs in the radio industry. The same is true of men trained in the Air Corps.
 So the employment outlook is good both from the standpoint ot available jobs and trained men tc fill them.
 TRIKES-This is the big ques- ton mark.
 However, neither government nor private business analysts think strikes will seriously upset produc- tion. One economic expert re- ports:
 "This rash Of strikes is only tenn rorary. It will not persist after spring. And from the standpoint of the employers, competition will drive them into production. They don't want labor troubles. They will want to get their products on the market for the distributors
 INITIATION - We already have some imitation and the situation is likely to get worse during the year, with employers bombarding the OPA and Congress for price in- creases to offset increased wage demands.
 However, as long as Chester Bowles heads the OPA, there won't be any runaway uncontrolled infla- ton.

 TRUMAN'S RADIO MESSAGE
 When President Truman went aboard his Yacht Williamsburg last weekend he had with him a large stack of notes from various advisers as to what kind of speech he should deliver to the nation today. He also had ringing in his ears advice from two groups of counSelors.
 One urged him to deliver fighting speech, administer sound spanking to Congress, and throw overheard completely his patient attempts to get along with his old colleagues on the Hill They want him to out Roosevelt Roosevelt in cracking the whip over Congress.
 The other group advised Truman to continue his conciliatory policy and not offend certain southern Democrats who have sabotaged his program at every step.
 Out of this conflicting advice, the President, according to those who saw the last draft of his speech, has evolved a middle-of- the-road message. They describe it as courageous but cooperative. :" He will not scold Congress but he will urge that every congressman stand up and be counted as to whether or not he is for such im- portant basic Roosevelt Truman policies as housing for veterans, a health program for the American people, the fact-finding labor con- ciliation act, and full employment. Finally, Truman's speech will lay the foundation for the Democratic Party's drive to win the 1946 Congressional Elections.
  POTOMAC CRUISE
 White House Adviser George Allen had quite an argument with his wife before she would let him accompany Truman on the New Years weekend cruise down the Potomac. Allen had been suffering from a bad cold, and his wife was afraid the trip might make it worse.
 Don't worry" Allen told his wife, there's a doctor on board with us"

During the recent Moscow Con-

 complete, layishly bound, printed transcript of everything that took place during the preceding Big Three Conference at Teheran, Yalta and Potsdam. It was neatly indexed, and the British could re- fer quickly to every commitment previously made by Stalin or FDR.

SOUTHAMPTON, England, Jan. 26.-British brides of U. s. service men, helped by white -helmeted mili- tary police lugging babies and bag gage, trooped today aboard the liner Argentine to begin the long voyage to homes and husbands in America on tonight's tide.
 Tired from five days of grappling with their youngsters and filing through customs and emigration lines at the Tidworth processing camp, the women were relieved at the sight of the neat staterooms and scores of baby playpens.
 In the line coursing up the gang plank was military policeman Matt Kastelic of West Dallas, Wis, gin- gerly carrying seven-month-old baby, while the mother, Mrs. Joan Hardiman, wife of It. Francis Hardiman, clutched 19-month-old Francis, Jr., in her arms.

 WILL RESIGN,
 REp0RTN NOW

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26-The im- minent resignation of the two top most U. s. envoys was forecast today by usually well informed diplomatic officials.
 They said that Averell Hartman. ambassador to Russia, and John Winant, ambassador to Britain, were ready to quit their posts.
 There has been some speculation that Hartman may be succeeded by La Guardia, former mayor of New York, now a columnist and radio commentator. La Guardia left on Thursday for South America to rep resent President Truman at inaug- uration of Brazil's new President.
 Joseph Davies, former ambassador to Russia, and James Dunn, assis- tant secretary of state, have been mentioned as possible successors to Winant.
 Hartman left Moscow by plane Thursday for home. His route will take him through Chungking, Tokyo and Korea with stopovers for con- ferences with Generals George c. Marshall, now ambassador to China, and Douglas Macarthur.
 He has been reported as anxious to return to private business.

MAYOR PARSONS E GUEST SPEAKER AT VIEW SESSION HERE
Outlines Many Improve menfs Planned for City
 al Meeting Last Night

The Juneau Post of the Veter- ans of Foreign Wars, at it's regular eFriday night meeting held in the CTO Union Hall, had the honor of hearing Mayor Ernest Parsons in an address to that body, outline contemplated city improvements that will provide not only future work for veterans, but also for their families, a much better city of Juneau keeping pace with the lest of Alaska in the forthcoming years.
 Mayor Parsons said te realized much had happened to the Veter- al.s returning to Juneau, but very little had happened to the city white they were away, and that during their absence there were some citizens who felt the city should not undergo changes until their veterans returned.
 The Mayor indicated the time for civ.c improvements is now at hand, and outlined the proposed projects to the audience He listed as the most important, the new memorial .jprary to be built at a cost pre- se:ltly estimated at about S80,000. Then the new fire hall to be built at cost of approximately ss6,ooo. Mayor Parsons then outlined the need for an airport building at pre- sent estimated at cost of $l89,- 900.
 He stated that while good part of the library cost would be raised through self subscription he felt that the air port building could be put on a paying basis by the rem tai of offices and allied equipment. Inc Mayor said eventually it will be imperative to landscape the new cemetery at a probable cost of about s3o000.
 Many other minor city improve mcnts eventually necessary were cited by the Mayor. He said it will require about $13,000 to refix the fire mains as they will not stand the present pressure for salt wa ter, a considerable amount of work to extend the sewer system, about s33,000 dollars to resurface the streets, $151,00 to pave other streets, S30,000 for step and side walk improvement, $208,000 for the Gold Creek flood control project and $167,00o for new grade school.
 Mayor Parsons said that though th.ie was some unemployment al the present time, that as things settle down, Juneau will offer cer- tain opportunities in not only city improvements to be undertaken but in Governmental projects, commercial building, and private building.
 The V. F w. held a discussion on child welfare in Juneau, and Mayor Parsons said he would re- quest a meeting of representatives from all city organizations dealing with youth to see what could be accomplished toward the better mcnt of child welfare in Juneau.
