Under this con- figuration restiveness under direc- tion will be marked. Persons in au- thority may be severely criticized. Changes in government, military and naval leaders in the United States and Europe are prognosti- cated. Intensive power of Mars is indicated Heart and Home: The Moon in Cancer which governs maternal functions and instincts gives prom- | ise of intensified interest in the family and its aspirations, al- though there may be lack of har-| in the domestic circle, This | mony | is a day favorable for release from matertal limitations and should be | fortunate for the church and the| clergy. Aged persons are well dl'i rected by the stars. Their counsel| should be sought. Business Affairs: Experiments ln; providing cooperative px'oje(‘l.\i among the unemployed will' en- counter obstacles, but when well| managed should be successful. Op-| position to self-help should be| overcome, since the burden of re- lief must become less if the na- tion is to avoid financial collapse. The stars have long warned that| banking and established money | channels will go through precari- | ous experiences as world finan- cial systems change. National Issues: Despite the un- covering of widespread espion: in the United States, secrets will be transmitted to foreign countries. | Inventions affecting communica-| tion processes will be of amazing character. In coming months mir- acles will be performed by the aid of novel mechanisms never hither- to used. Sabotage now will be prev- alent in American manufacturing plants where secret foreign spy| methods will be introduced. International Affairs: Island pos- sessions will assume importance | and will cause anxiety in Wash- ington as enemy naval operations continue to be disastrous. There| is a sign warning that the United | States will require two strong nn»‘ vies. The seers seem to foresee the | need of small vessels in great num- | bers. Diplomats will undergo su-| preme tests in which American en- | voys will prove their ability. Persons whose birthdate it is| have the augury of a year of gain| and progress, but love affairs may | be disappointing. Romance will be absorbing to the young and the middle-aged. : Children born on this day prob- ably will be brilliant in mind cand | individual in character. They »will| succeed in the learned professions, but may be unlucky in love affairs. MONDAY, MARCH 18 Benefic aspects appear to domin- ate today. The morning hours are fortunate for women and their, in- terests. The sway stimulates intel- lectual labors. It is fortunate :for|- educators and for lawmakers. The evening may be a time when im- portant news is announced. Heart and Home: The morning should offer unusual opportunities to ambitious women. Intellectual contacts and journeys are indicat- ed. There is a- promising r marriage under this configu n. Astrologers emphasize the need jof an increased birthrate among - illes of education and stable’chr- acter. Through the long period of depression, race deterioration has affected large numbers of persons. Patriotism means building up the public health and contributing well bred children to one’s country,.the seers emphasize. Business Affairs: This is not an auspicious date for starting new projects. It is favorable to plan- ning and waiting for events soon to occur in the world of interna- tional banking. Engineering should be pushed, for the stars presage remarkable feats in harbor - im- provements and bridge construc- tion. The evening is important for men in high places. Announcement of a government policy of far- reaching significance is forecast for this month. National Issues: Increase of crime will arouse public apprehen- sion. Responsibility for a reign of lawlessness will be attributed to Federal economies, but astrologers read in the stars causes that arise in communities which ignore their duty to the citizens who expect good government. Waste and graft in' local relief agencies are to arouse indignation, but few re- forms. International Affairs: Pressure to bring about aid to the Allies in the European War will be strong as intricate secret pacts inyolve neutral nations abroad. Large loans to Scandinavian countries are prog- nosticated. British campaign poli- cies will be unfortunate as changes in the Ministry are proved inade- quate, in view of the far-flung difficulties that multiply for the Empire. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of gain by means of hard work. Happincss through family ties is indicated for many. Women may be inclined to seek pleasure which causes heavy expenses. They should avoid-costly hospitalities.
