Attacks Hoover. “The debate was enlivened by an at- tack on Secretary Hoover by Repre- sentative Dickinson, Republican, lowa, laring the Commerce Secre- tary was attempting to “Hooverize" the' Government. Mr. Dickinson charged him with encroaching on the itle: of the Agriculture and artments, and asserted that he was even belng consulted as to selection of a successor to Secretary Gore. One of the Byrns amendments would have increased the allotment for commerclal attaches from $315,- 000 to $390,000. It went out by a vote of 71 to 84 By wider margins, with party lines ignored, the House then rejected amendments to increase by $60,000 a $432,000 item for promoting commerce in Europe, a $248.000 proposal for de- velo: nt of South and Central American trade, another of $243,000 for trade promotion in the Far East, and, by a viva voce vote, a $50,000 increase in the allotment for study of domestic and forelgn problems relat- ing to production, @istribution and marketing. Mr. Byrns contended that the United States must expend more money in fostering its foreign com- maerce to meet the efforts of Euro- pean nations to regain the trade they had before the World War.

Adverse aspects prevail during the early morning, and the balance of the day is doubtful, because three slight- 1y good aspects mingle with the a verse square from Saturn. The day is good only for minor matters and routine duties, and nothing demand- ing great conocentration or forceful energy should be either attempted or done. In the evening the vibrations are not stimulating, and much dis- cord and dissension must be antici- pated, unless special efforts are made to avoid both. This is an occasion when it 1s well to remember that “a £oft word turneth away wrath.” More than usual care should be taken to- day to avold doing anything that may injuriously affect the health. A child born today will grow into normal boyhood or girlhood. Tem- peramentally, it will be generous, light-hearted and optimistic, fond of entertalnment and amusement; musi- cal and artistic, and bound to take a prominent part in soclal life. It will be trustworthy and dependable, and recelve many confldences, although seldom making a confidant of others. It will be loving, sweet-tempered, and have & happy, qulet life If today is your birthday you are good-natured, fair-minded and truth- ful. If not already married you should marry early. You possess normal ability, and are painstaking and a “bear” for detail. You are, by your temperament, more fitted to flil a subordinate than a commanding‘one. Your personality is negative, rather than affirmative, and you are more successful in carrying out orders than in giving them. You are a very loyal friend, al- though a little difident about becom- ing intimate with those in a better position than vourself. Your asso- clates are those who find themselves in the same walk of life as you do, or a little lower. Well known persons born on this date are: Joseph H. Choate, lawyer; Joseph W.
