Obviously no per- son, firm or corporation on earth is too big for lliem to tackle- if said person, firm or corporation seems to need tackling. The S. P. company is the second largest ) business organization in the world. It is u great power. It I has mugniflccnt legal talent. lis financial strength is such as ,' Wall street fears. ; But all that means little, in j fact nothing, to our mayor and ; the council. No matter If it be ; Joe Doakes or the mighty railroad corporation they all look alike. When weeds grow In the tracks and the place of business Is un , sightly "to a very marked tie- gi-ee," as the mayor states, then . they hud better clean up the ' place or else. That Is the spirit that makes ,' fine clean prosperous cities. Ours i . may not be the largest town In I the country. Census figures, In fact, indicate that Roscburg Is ! one of the smaller cities in the U. 1 S. But we are Just as proud as , , big city folks. We want city kept as clean as most well groomed cities -and cleaner than most. Wo like the railroad com pany folks and we do not want to cause them any unnecessary trouble. We know the local com pany employes would long ago have taken care of the situation mentioned by Mayor Young. The trouble isalthough they did not tell us If the head office would give the local men enough help all would be kept In order. But liking people or not liking them has nothing to do with the matter under discussion. When Joe Doakes keeps an unsightly j place, he must clean It up. When . a giant railroad company does. the same thing it must suffer I the same complaint and order, The cily government Is right. we want a clean town. We wish the county government could do , something about some of the awful messes we have Just be i yond our city limits- such as, for 1 instance, those weed grown junk ,' yards full uf old autos. Changing Empire IT has often been noted that South American c o u n t r 1 e s, long noted mostly for production of raw materials for export, have now begun to industrialize and produce I h e i r own finished goods. Not so well known is the fact that Ibis Is taking place through out the whole British empire.

This is no news to the British, who or months have been rush ing construction of airfields for the protection of Rangoon and Burma in general. yjTjV might also go back to General Wavell, who some time ago was sent to India. If you will take another look at your map, you will note that if Russia is defeated India will be come at once an important thea ter of war. I DUSS1A, of course, is the big hot spot and the big ques tion mark. There's a lot of lying going on there so much that it is Impos sible to draw accurate conclu sions. Germany has CONVICTED HERSKLK of lying. You will re call that some weeks ago the Ger mans announced they had de stroyed the Russian air force. The Germans are now telling of uir battles in which the Russian lit' force is a factor. PUR today sums up the Russian mystery about as well as It can bo done. Asked at his press conference what he thinks of the Russian re sistance to date, he answers: "It is magnificent, and frankly bet ter than any military expert in Germany thought it would be." That is a reserved and cau tious statement. But, coming from the man who has on his desk the secret reports of army and navy intelligence and the state department, it carries some weight.

(AP) Dr. Rufus D. Smith, provost, of New York university, says a "breaktherlch" taxation policy of the federal government may result In closing of private schools. The pending $3,206,200,000 tax bill is an application of that pol-j jlcy, he told IS YU s assembly on war yesterday, and exemplifies j the United States' "chaotic, poti-1 tical and haphazard" approach to j I a total war economy. I Asserting that population I changes, Increased taxes und i debt have made the problems of 'school administrators Increasing ly complex, the educator said the I future of private school financ-l ling would depend upon "the I philosophy of taxation adopted' 'in Washington."- j I Dr. Smith declared the tax bill! now awaiting action by the U. i Is. senate "strikes inequitably at the great middle class but; leaves virtually untouched newi Income In the lower brackets, thus leaving the throstle open for inflationary tendencies." ' Dr. Smith asserted private schools and colleges of the na tion depend to a great extent up ! on the middle class for suppi.rt.j and he predicted that the' na-, (ion's school system in the future: might have to place "greater! and greater dependency upon thej financial support of the fedeial government." "Private education in America has already been hard h!t by lessened endowments and lower! Income returns. Must it now faei a depleted middle-class income? he asked.

Pink salmon is the most widely consumed type, officials said. Colombia Cracks Down on Activity Of Nazi Elements BOGOTA, Colombia, Aug. 6. (API Colombia has joined the growing list of Latin American countries taking action against anti-democratic activities by an nouncing that an attempt to In doctrinate the army with totali tarian Ideals had been nipped. Detention of an undisclosed number of persons unofficial estimates ranged from 40 to 200 and seizure of quantities of documents were announced by War Minister Martinez In con nection with an investigation in to alleged subversive activities. The Bogota radio charged that nazi elements were behind the movements. There were rumors that at least one German was among those detained, but . the German legation denied any Ger man nationals were being held. Disclosure of the government investigation followed by two weeks a message to congress in which President Santos bitterly assailed nazi-ism and said Co lombia's position as a neighbor of Panama obligated her lo see that the Panama canal never is menaced from her territory. j In his formal announcement the war minister assured the na-1 lion that the situation was com-1 pletely in hand and said there was no cause for anxiety. An informed source said the German legation had for several months been printing a special Spanish edition of German army bulletins for distribution to Colombian- armed forces. This source said it was common to see uniformed soldiers and sail ors calling at the legation for bulletins and other nazl printed matter. Leaves for Wyoming Mrs. C. S.
