NATIONAL ISSUES: Govern- ment anxiety regarding the re- tarding effects of certain union rules will be manifested as the new year starts and public criti- cism spreads. The stars are read as indicating effort of workers to prevent loss of time in ship and airplane building. Closer coopera- tion between employers and em- ploees is forecast. The seers de- clare that there must be unity in civilian war effort similar to that eltained in military, naval and aviation operations. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Wustradamus, the seer who cen- turies ago foretold the present world chaos, declared that France would establish a new monarehy apd that Italy and Spain, and pos- ginly Portugal, woilld come under the sway of the French king. This wonld take place next year, ac- cording to one interpretation.
