The three Senators also paid high tribute to the morale and skill of United States air men, | who are forced to fly in the worst | kinds of weather conditions. Though refusing to predict how soon we air offensive to drive the Japs from their footholds in the Aleutians, the subcommittee reported that one ob- stacle which has been holding up an offensive has been licked. Hitherto we have been unable to send protective convoys of fighting planes with bombers raiding Jap positions in the Aleutians, because our fighters do not have the flying range for the 1,000-mile round trip from the army hase at Umnak Island, nearest outpost to the Japs However, this problem has been solved by the ifistallation of “belly gas tanks on fighters.

It was Kanzler's appointment as director of operations that precipi- tated labor’s recent protest to Don- ald Nelson over its lack of voice in (WPB matters. Labor's dislike of | Kanzler dates back to the days when he was a Ford executive. More recently he incurred the dis- trust of union leaders when he in- |tervened with Nelson to keep him ,from exposing and penalizing Gen- eral Motors for using critical materials to make civilian refrig- erators in violation of WPB regula- tions. The violation had been dis- |covered and reported by union of- ficials, but Kanzler told Nelson it would be bad for the country's morale to let it be known that labor had caught management off base. Kanzler also was responsible for a WPB decision to retain certain facilities for manufacturing auto- mobile engines instead of convert- ing all to war work. His reason: He believes that sometime during the war, a “flying submarine” will be | |invented able to operate in the air lor under the water, and that auto- (mobile engines will be needed to propel it.

One] of the encouraging features of the | tranng of young men and young | women for wartime service is that thus they will be technically 0f!i—‘ cient for peacetime occupations. American youth, accustomed to ease | and luxury, will undergo changes that assure ability to cope with | life’s exacting tests, astrologers de- clare. | NATIONAL ISSUES: As the hab- | it of tithing wages and incomes is ' fixed, Americans who give one- tenth of their earnings will learn to be thrifty all through their lives, the seers foretell and they foresee in the stern wartime exac- tions lessons in needed discipline. Through blood, labor and saerifice, pioneer virtues again will" gain | prominence and the people will emerge from the worst war.in all history strengthened and spiritual- jzed. ' INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Prophets multiply and differ in their war predictions. The Bible and the Pyramid of Gizeh have| supplied material for strange prog- | nostications and one of the latest from the pyramid foretells the fall| of India and the Suez Canal and betrayal of the Fighting French fleet. And according to this pre- | diction Alaska, Hawaii and the | Panama Canal also are to be| seriously threatened by the enemy. The United States will be in grave danger and will be placed under martial lJaw. Many other disasters | are foreseen, but in the end pence.’ plenty and progress will be at- tained. Astrology, the science of the Ancients, fortunately is not S0 | discouraging in war prognostica- tions, although grave experiences are foretold for our great nation. Persons whose birthdate it 1s! have the augury of a year in which there will be definite advancement ! by hard work. Overstrain and un- necessary risks should be avoided. | Children born on this day prol:f—' ably will be generous and kindly in| nature.
