Today should be fortunate for women who jengage in the usual domestic tasks. 1They should avoid seeking public |service under this configuration. Girls may find today disappointing in love affairs. Misunderstandings and broken engagements are nu- merous under this sway which en- courages inconstancy. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: The stock \market should show a general up- ward tendency as our successes in |the war are recorded. Experts warn, However, that it is unwise to spec- ulate on the probability of a sud- den collapse of Italy or Germany. i{The end of the war will cause a fair |adjustment of stock values, but |this happy date may be far off. It is safe to expect many months of jconflict with setbacks here and |there for the United Nations. NATIONAL ISSUES: Possible jcandidates in' the next national election will be widely discussed with - contradictory appraisements. Partisan feeling may be intense. A former presidential nominee will continue in the limelight and will gain wide publicity through daring comments and reckless independ- ence. Those who read the stars have predicted that there will be no change in the nation’s Chief Executive until the close of the way. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: The handicap that United Natiens must overcome, owing ‘to lack ‘of preparation for the war, will the most apparent in the conflict in the Pacific where the Japanese have made use of their time in strength- ening island defenses. Severe losses will be the price of our long indif- ference to Asiatic ambitions. As the results of educational advantages and friendly offices extended by the United States the war in the Paci- fic will continue long after the Axis powers are defeated. There is a sign that our western coast will be at- tacked before the end of the Sum- mer, but invasion may not be at- tempted. Persons whose birthdate it is have the ‘augury of a year of unusual experience. | PFinancial gain and happy romancé are indicated Children born on' this day prob- ably will be sturdy in body and brilliant in mind.
