INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Eu- ropean astrologers who have worked fact that Saturn in his tenth house was most significant in regard to his mad ambitions. They have no- ticed that the Fuehrer makes his advances and offensives when the Sun is in a mutable sign and as all these signs are said to be har- monious to his ruling planets he has made rapid headway. Thé en- {trance of Neptune into Libra tran- siting his Ascendant is supposed to, mark his downfall, or at least the decided decline of his power. While his fall from power is read in Sa- turn in.the tenth house, his death is indicated by Neptune in his eighth house. Gas or poison are presaged as the possible cause of his end. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of unu- sual events, some of which will be difficult to meet. It is necessary to exercise.tact and diplomacy in busi- ness and social contacts. Children born on this day prob- ably will be exceedingly ambitjous. Although they are likely to be suc- cessful, they must learn humility and unselfishness.
