The attempt of Nazi-inspired “squadristi” to outdo Mussolini in oppressive emer- gency measures is proof of the seriousness of the situation Unfortunately, it is easier for a nation, in the words of the Pantelleria letter, to become “hypno- tized” by a saber-rattling and swashbuckling regime than to get rid of it. The terror under which the Ttalian people now live is the penalty they pay for having listened to Mussolini in the first place. But the Ttalians have their destiny in their own hands.

He stakes his life upon its rugged efficiency — so he feeds it clean, uniform, power- packed Standard Diesel Fuel. He knows Standard Diesel Fuel comes to him 1009, clean, without impurities that injure delicate fuel injectors. Uniform in performance, it ignites smoothly and cleanly, and has FOR FOOD the extra power to get him out of tight spots, Today, like the ships they serve, Standard Marine Prod- ucts are meeting the supreme test. Standard Diesel Fuel, RPM DELO, the Diesel engine lubricant used in Navy subma- rines, Standard Gasolines and gasoline engine oils are helping to write a stirring page in the saga of the Alaska fishing fleet —the navy that fights the war for food.

Subtly the new order is|, |changing ideas and customs in ways| ns of all races, astrologers declare Goers vision the dawn of the Aquar- ian age which brings scientific, hu- | manitarian and idealistic evolution, | assuring equality for all. I BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Economists| agree with astrologers who declare that the war will give the United| States a self-sufficient continental cconomy and will abolish mass un- cmployment in the United States Great changes in international kin, tems have been prophe- ed. Through emergency measures that proved our commercial gréat- ness lasting business benefits are assured, the seers announce. They predict that recent gains in the power of organized labor will be reduced voluntarily when coopera- tion or partnership with capital |is attained. The era of immense salaries will close with the estab- lishment of postwar standards of income. ! NATIONAL ISSUES: Demonstra« tion that all the nations on the ¢lobe compose only one world will} be made by the Second World War| which will show the absurdity of! the isolation conception by certain! politicians. As recognition of the! responsibilities of the United States! as the leading nation on the glooe’ permeates to the last reluctant ad-! vocate of American isolation, old ideas will be replaced with enthu- siastic plans for the future. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Dictators are to fall rapidly, after another, as if they were bowled down by an irresistible foree,‘ astrologers long have foretold. With out principles ‘or any ' code of right to ststain them they will reveal , the cowardice that marks all bullies, bt the time of their| i punishment will be delayed as long, vlctm.-ms. as possible. They and their support- | lers will betray one another, it is forecast. Suicide or assassination! long has been predicted as likely to| end Hitler’s frightful career. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of extra- ordinary adventures and successes. Changes will be numerous. Children born this year probably {will have fine traits of character as well as talents of rare quality. | They have the possibility of sur- | passing success in life. ‘; (Copyright, 1943) D 'SIXTEEN ARRIVE FROM WESTWARD Passengers arriving late last evening from the Westward were {Jacob Bullard, Charles T.
