THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1936. Iin a setting of vast wealth, men and women whose names are synonymous in the public mind with riches; social and economic privilege. There was Al Smith, who had been described as a radical by those same people in 1928, and for many years a Democratic war horse, Daily Alaska Empire ROBERT W.

These are but a few of significant things in the politi- cal picture at the moment, but doubtless all of them (huw had something to do with raising Roosevelt stocks to a new high level. If the trend continues, it is not at all impossible to see the President virtually as pop- ular a national figure as he was in 1932 when he was swept into office. Especially, in view of the fact that the Republicans are disorganized and battling among themselves with no logical contender for the nomi- nation on which they can center. The Landon boom is losing momentum and unless something exceptional is done to revive it, it may well be almost extinct by convention time.

In the advisory primary, President Roosevelt ran two to one ahead of the Re- publican ticket Since the height of the verbal attack on the Presi- dent and his policies in mid-winter there has been throughout the nation a constant swing-back of the Mining Progress. (Journal of Commerce, Seattle.) The mining industry has had some tough going for many years and especially during the years before the dépression, due to high wages, discouraging taxes and unfavorable legislation.

It is a time to start ambitious enterprises and to push all important matters. ‘Women should make the most of every opportunity under this dir- ection of the stars. They will ac- complish much through united ac- tion in civic affairs. This is an auspicious day for the young folk. It encourages love af- fairs that are serious. The stars stimulate logical and careful fore- thought among persons of all ages. Under this rule of the stars church services are especially effective fox the influences tend toward intro- spection and aspiration. Members of the clergy are well directed at this time and churches will gain in membership. ‘Warning is given by the seers that after the severe experiences of the recent depression lessons taught| through financial losses should not be forgotten. Easter gayeties are to be extraordinary in their brilliance and costliness, it is prognosticated. In the horoscope of President Roosevelt has seen a sign that fore- shadows swift financial changes and emergency demands for great| amounts of money.
