NOTE—One thing which hasn't helped the Roosevelt-Byrnes rels tions is the suspicion that Jimmy originated the ‘“clear it with Sidney” slogan which caused so much damage during the campaign. When Jimmy aspired to be Vice - Presidential running - mate, F.DR. was reported to have told him to get the OK of Sidney Hill- man, Any leak from Byrnes about this probably was inadvertent, but his close friend Bernard Baruch has been given credit for helping put the story into wide circulation. UNDER THE DOME Looks like some of the dicta- torial tactics previously attributed to Democrats were spreading to the other side of the aisle. Republican Leader Joe Martin cracked down on two GOP Congressmen, Clare Luce of Connecticut and Christian Herter of Massachusetts, when they refused to vote for a new Dies Committee. He punished them by refusing coveted places on the House Foreign Affairs Committee . . .

If you don’t enjoy being a prisoner with us, you can return to your units.” As a result of the offer, eight Nazis surrendered. At the end of three days, four agreed to stay, the other four asked to go back The Army let them go. To their surprise, however, the four came back a few hours later more than 50 of their tired Nazi comrades to join them in the com- paratively luxurious prison camp surroundings.

Wo- men come under a sway that may be depressing. HEART AND HOME: Astrologers again foretell increase of attention to religious observances. Practical application of spiritual ideas to everyday affairs will be more widely taught. The service of chap- lains in tion in commerce will be intense after the war, astrologers forecast, but it will be scientifically directed. The great progress in economics, brought about by Government re- quirements for war efficiency will aid future business development. NATIONAL ISSUES: Civic re- will engage attention in parts of the country. The seers emphasize that all com- munities must eliminate graft and bad conditions. If the nation is to |be worthy of those who have made many the supreme sacrifice, it must |make good government its first | concern. i INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: |General Eisenhower’s horoscope | shows most fortunate planetary a |pects. With Mars as his ruling planet he is destined to continued |success in his supreme command. Exceptional judgement and almost uncanny intuition are indicated in his stars. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of real progre There may be temporary | disappointments. Children born on this day prob- ably will be successful in their careers but their love affairs may {be unfortunate. MONDAY, JANUARY 15 Until late today the planetary aspects are unimportant but after sundown benefic influences domi- nate. The configuration is promis- ing for persons in authority. HEART AND HOME: According to the seers the subject of divorce |is to assume prominence in inter- national affairs. European and {Scuth American countries have gained distorted ideas of our so- cial customs and family relations |from our literature and motion |pictures, thus preventing cordial endorsement of our way of life. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Under this configuration business foresight should inspire far-reaching plans for future trade. A sign is read as presaging the rise of new leaders who will direct national enterprise and prevent unwise policies in dealing with the peoples of Europe and Asia. power in politics will gain respect- ful recognition, and in legislative bodies there will be growing num- of representatives of the |unions, it is prognosticated. Instead of a labor party there will be in- creasing power in established poli- tical organizations. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: .| Astrologers predict that the United - {Nations have passed through their worst period of conflict and fore- [tell progress from now on which though interrupted will be amaz- hingly successful. A final victory will . |blot out all enemy power but there may be prelonged fighting for many months. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of good fortune. Great advantages are prophesied for those of courage and initiative. Children born on this day prob- ably will be idealistic. They should be wisely directed and carefully educated, because extraordinary potentialities are foretold for them.
