No other country on earth has produced and used so much aluminum as we have in America. It Is used for so many things, has been relatively inexpensive, and has been in common use over such a long period of years that the drive to salvage what otherwise would beof course, on a battle front near- waste will surely yield millions of needed tons. In Roseburg and Douglas coun ty we are doing our part as we have a fine record for doing wlinnniMir tlinr, has come a call f,.- r,,,iiiin nrtinn nrnnoea ! 1 " " ., " I and women s organizations me taking the lead throughout the county. In Roseburg the drive which really gets under way In full force today, Is being spon sored by the Roseburg Woman's club. There is one thing about this effort to accumulate aluminum for defense that should be thor oughly understood-- the need is not yet so great that useable or valuable articles need be sacri ficed. It is reported that some of the first collections turned In contained numerous pieces of cooking and household equip ment that appeared to be entire ly good and useable. Doubtless the giving of such pieces lo the drive meant a genuine sacrifice on the part of the giver. The spirit of such contributions is splendid. However, If all of the worn out pieces, the leaky pans and the bent and broken articles that have no longer any value are gathered up, we shall lie able to. supply the plane and other dc fniiso factories for some Utile time. If and when (he need be comes greater, the call will lie made for more aluminum. Then will be lime enough to throw the good pieces of aluminum into the collection for defense and nol before. Complete delails ol the local aluminum drive were printed In the News-Review yesterday, if additional information is requir ed or t)iere are questions It Is suggested thai you telephone or call at the office of the Rose burg chamber of commerce. Measure of Strength llIIILE many are dissalislied with the rate of growth of defense strength, and none has any right lo be smugly satisticd wilh II, there is nothing ahoul II lo cause despair. In General Marshall's biennial report, just released, some Interesting marks of progress are shown. Between July 1, HUD, and July 1, 19-11, Ihe army jumped Ii'om 174.000 to 1, 100,000. From a mere frame work of three and onethiid divi sions, it Jumped to four armies, nine corns. 20 divisions. The air corps a year ago had (i'J squadrons of between l.i and 1?K planes each. Today It has Cl combat groups of between (il and 121 plane each, more than ijiiadiuplrd. True. It ir, only a beginning. I.'ut fortune has granted us the time, and It Is only now that Ihe Industrial machine is beginning to turn out material in real quantity Soon very soon An,,,- can military strong I, will be less a question of material than of or - Sanitation and trained ability to use It. Editorial on News (Coatiauad from pa L) found shooting back.) DERL1N : "The titanic strug- " gle on the eastern 'front is I turning everywhere into a Ger man victory. Germany foresees I a victory so decisive that its con sequences will have far-reaching effects on the fate pf Europe. Moscow: "Hand-to-hand bay onet combat In trench warfare radically altering German blitz krieg style Is reported to have developed, with the red army holding on after a night long bat tle." TTHE real news from the east- crn front is RAIN, drenching the flat lands and marshes and threatening to ground Ihe Stu kas and halt the tanks at the cri tical moment of the German of fensive. Often enough In history the weather has stepped in to take a hand in warfare. (O FTENEFl on the sea than on the land. In the first funic war, Rome lost two fleets by storm, but replaced them build ing FOUR fleets altogether and eventually defeated the sea going Cartheglnians on their own ele ment. The ancient Romans were a tough, stubborn, deter- mined lot much like the mod ern English.) A MOTHER of these little sido " lights from the eastern front: The Germans are using rack ets red as a signal to open fire, white as a signal to attack and green as a signal to cease firing. Last night (Thursday) a Russian officer sent up Ills own green rocket, deceiving the Germans and causing them to cease fir ing. The Russian then led his own troops into a counter charge. An insignificant little incident ly two thousand miles long and involving nine million troops. Hut it proves that the Russians aren't as dumb as they arc gen- icrany cunsmerou 10 no IN London a British economic expert says the German oil supply has lioen reduced danger ously by the Russian campaign. That may bo wishful thinking, and it may bo Inside knowledge gleaned from the reports of com petent spies inside Germany. One never can tell. C PEAKING of spying. A spy who works on OUR .SIDE is a patriot, courageous and devoted, risking his life daily In one of war's most dangerous phases. A spy on the ENEMY side is a despicable object, loathed by all right-thinking people and shot when caught.

L. Crittenden, Roseburg manager for the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company. Starting this week, the West ern Electric company, which handles major installation work for the telephone company, will have four men on the job here. Included in the project will be the Installation of equipment to provide facilities for approxi mately 150 new local telephones, and the Installation of special long distance equipment. The work is being done to take care of anticipated growth in the Roseburg exchange and to provide for increased long dis tance facilities necessitated large ly by national defense activi ties. The present schedule calls for the work to be rushed to comple tion within two months. Such a job normally would take at least double that length of time, Mr. Crittenden pointed out.

U'lll ticaan eooae alone f a a 26 MINUTES TO DOOM CHAPTER XXII four different occasions Leana Sormi had clocked the time necessary to walk from the Tyler cottage, down a trail, around the curving railroad track and into the old mine shaft to the X-999 It varied only from 19 to 26 min utes. She had, therefore, only to set an arbitrary hour for Carolyn to be Inside the shaft. Then she could time herself accordingly, and be at her prepared station on the fai side of Mummy Ridge. She knew that her concealed receiver-generator, wired to set off the dynamite cap, was extremely sensitive. Her transmitter on Mummy Ridge would reach it eas ily, even through the rock and soil of Tonto Mountain. This time she had no accom plices, no one but herself to trust The perfection of the plan gave Leana double satisfaction. First, it would completely re move that annoying stenographei from the scene, she who had sc brazenly intruded upon Leana's and Bob's affairs. Second, it would "punish" Rob ert for neglecting her, by destroy ing the X-999 which he had worked so long to produce. Leant saw this not as fantastic reasoning but as logical, righteous means tc an end. She was so pleased with herseli on this, appointed day of victor that she had accepted Robert's im pulsive invitation to ride horse, back with him and Carolyn. Why not go? Why not! It woult be her hour of triumph over th stupid, unsuspecting Tyler girl! In preparation, Leana spent al most an hour dressing this after, noon. She had only the Hopi In dian cook to aid her, and shi lacked what any average American-born woman would havi called essential cosmetics, but sh did an excellent job, Perfecting her hair, she saw that it was literally the spun gold of the love-story heroines. She posed before her mirror undeniably she possessed form and grace. She leaned closer her eyes were an alluring gray-blue. Only her cheeks and lips annoyed her. The cheeks were too high, like the Indian cook's, and the lips were definitely largo and coarse. Angrily, she knew she could do nothing about either. She hastened to don a most becoming riding costume. e AROLYN" experienced a mo merit of panic when Leana joined them. That Leana had come at nil, or that Bob had even asked her, was a distinct surprise. Of course, Carolyn had no alternative but to pretend pleasure.

"How do you DO?" Leaga greeted her with astonishing heartiness. It was as if they had been old acquaintances, meeting again after months of separation. "You look so nice!" Carolyn ven tured, and meant it. "But not nearly as sweet and dainty as you. Isn't she the loveli est thing, Bobert, dear?" Robert, dear, it developed, was quite in agreement. In truth he was delighted that the two girls were so companionable. He re called now that they hadn't culti vated much of a friendship as yet. But e berated himself for that. Since Carolvn Joined the staff '' everyone had been so busy and i distracted by various excitements. He resolved to foster their friend ship more. And anyway, come to think of it, Leana was a sensitive person whom he was supposed to to, uh he frowned a bit to himself. He didn't wish even to think of his deeper personal "responsibili ties" toward her right now; he wanted only to ride for relaxation. "I could make thousands of men jealous this afternoon," he said. "Goodness, Bob!" Carolyn was nervous, but pleased. "Dr. Hale is gallant," Leana sup plied. "But tell me more about yourself, Miss Tyler. Do you have scientific leanings also? Or have you been trained more extensively in the fine arts?" She spoke loftily. Carolyn tried not to show that she was ill at ease. "Oh, no. I did go through college. Junior college. I mean. But I I had to work aftei that. I had to work my waj through Junior college in fact. 1 don't mean I'm ashamed of that .but II mean " It sounded so lame as to be em barrassing. Why was she allowinf this woman to annoy her? But shi didn't answer her own question she only knew that Leana Sormi had re-awakened in her a vague but positive fear. Fear of the un known; an imperative, urgent sense of alarm. There was nothing she could do about it. TTCE two hours' ride dragged like A two centuries. Leana kept up her astonishing conversation. Arty, highbrow talk, not quite posey but definitely superior, drawing con- tantly if unlabeled contrast be tween hor own distinguished achievements and Carolyn s mea ger education and career. Bob Hale didn't notice. He was wont to beam happily at both of them and to show off what his horse could do. He wished he had 1 lariat. He was a carefree kid at play again. He saw nothing of the girls' rather desperate drama of words. For that, Carolyn was lhankful. When the trip was over and they were back at their little vil- age stables again, they separated with a certain forced merriment. Carolyn walked straight home. It was after 5 o'clock, she noted. Her mother was mixing a chocolate ake and, oddly, it didn't interest Carolyn, who also loved to cook. She )ust sat and stared at the door for 20 minutes or so and was surprised again when Lenna Sormi anyone anywhere to pick up a anywhere else, clearly, quickly THE PACIFIC TELEPHONE Dhsna T' ' called her from out front. She went to the porch. Leana was still on her horse. 11 "Oh Miss Tyler," Leana began, "Robert asked me to bring a eon fidential message. He wants you t-j meet him in the tunnel at 8 o'clock, please. It seemed to be important." Carolvn was mildly surprised-. "At 6?" Wj Leana nodded. "Yes. He thought it best to meet there while most of the village is af the dinner hour." Leana spoke significantly. "You understand. At the sub stance. I think I shall ride a bit more myself. Another time we caa go together, maybe!" a a rpHE older girl rode away. When Carolyn had changed from bcr riding clothes she started to walk down to the trail and around the bend that led to the Tonto Moun tain tunnel. She was curious. She. looked for Bob but didn't see him, so probably he had already gone in. From across a canyon Leana watched Carolyn depart. She noted the exact time on her wrist watcn. Then she rode her horse on aroui mummy mage out ui siijiu. After exactly 26 minutes she pressed a switch on the trans mitter she had concealed. (To Be Continued) Yankees Sew Up r Pennant With 7 -Game Margin By JUDSON BAILEY (Associated Press Sports Writer) A week ago the big question in the American league was whether the New York Yankees would sew up the pennant in their remain ing games in the west.
