You may use the appended layout file.
If you are on linux and have installed umbrello in default location with
your packager manager, copy the appended file into 
/usr/share/kde4/apps/umbrello/layouts/. If you installed umbrello from
source as described at http://umbrello.kde.org/installation.php you may
install this file into  $HOME/umbrello/share/apps/umbrello/layouts/
On windows the directory is located at
<install-root>/share/kde4/apps/umbrello/layouts/.

The above mentioned auto layout will help to align more. Unfortunally in
the recent state of the source the alignment of associations may not be
ideal. If the results do not fit your needs you may file a bug report.
