Art YOU a Humor Spreader?
DEOPLE who .carelessly spread
and add their bit to startling
rumors surely cannot be as stupid
as their foolishness would indi
cate. No, they are thoughtless.
It is exciting to hear and pass
along startling "information."
They Xall to give a thought to
consequences. They do not realize
that we are at WAR that war
in lact is much too near our own
share-lino. In peace-time passing
on a fine bit of rumor-gossip is
.pretty good fun and, on the
whole, docs relatively little harm.
.But during a war the starting of
.malicious rumors is part of the
fifth column stock in. trade, A
rumor nearly any, serf of .mlsln
formation with a 'defense or mili
tary angle js helpful to the, cue-
, my and damaging to"our cause.
' Here in Roseburg, during the
Christmas holiday period, rumors
,flew thick and fast. They.- grew
and grew until It is a wonder our
entire community did not go in-'
to a panic and begin evacuating.
' For example, Friday morning
we learned that .horrible sabotage
attempts were made against varl-,
, ous utilities and that .(Judging '
Xi-om the talk) the entire lobby,
of the post office .building had
been mysteriously Jllled with
deadly high explosive. Then
there was supposed to have been
an exciting .ohase and capture of
a Bpy or two. Nuts!
What actually happened, and
wc reveal nothing of value to the
enemy In telling this, was that de
fense authorities' had ordered) it
special alert Christmas eve and
Christmas night quite obviously to
onset the human let down in vigi
lance of the holiday season. There
WAS danger of sabotage. There
Is ALWAYS danger of sabotage.
But this we know, there. were
no attempts of the magnitude
alleged by the rumors.
We must, each and every one
of us, be sensible about what we
say. It is a crime, not yet punish
able but a clime nevertheless, to
spread rumor. We must make It
a hard and fast rule to stop a
rumor In its tracks by demanding
adequate proof of u teller. We
must make It a hard and fast rule
to tell nothing to anybody except
that which we KNOW of our own
certain and personal knowledge
to be true. And even then it
would be brat not to tell It.
Oiistafi
The Fleet Is On the Job
, UE Americans are impatient.
Who is there who has not at
one time or another during the
last several days asketl "Where
is our Heel '!"
The answer to thai is simple.
If wc knew where the fleet is
so would the Japs. And that is
one thing we very definitely do
not want the little yellow savages
to know.
Of one thing we can be certain
and that must be our solace
while wc wait fur news the
United States Navy is well equip
ped (though not yet fully equip
ped) and well manned. It can
out-shoot nml out-fight anything
nfloat unless faced with over
whelming odds against It. When
the time comes, the Navy will
give a good account. Until then
we must be patient.
The Japs have one advantage
they can shoot back at us the
scrap iron we sold them. We, on
the other hand, cannot shoot silk
stockings at them. Uiit we've gut
more tons of scrap scattered ov
er this country than wo ever ship
ped to the ,Tups. We shall now
gather that up and deliver It to
them as they have asked for It'

ginning of the war has been on
the side of the axis,, will shift
with 12 to 18 months overwhelm

By then wc will have hit our
stride.
O PEAKING of the Germans, the

asks:
"What kind of people do they
think wo are? Do they not realize
we shall never cease to persevere
against them until we have taught
them a lesson which they and the
world Will never forget?"
He Is right. We SHALL.
Along with the British, we are
slow starters. But, once well
started, we make our weight felt.
Wc always have, and we still
shall. ..

QHV1
HURCHILL says:
am pleased with the depth
and breadth of American under
standing of what is Involved In
this war." He means that we un
derstand It is a WORLD war,
with our Pacific front only one
of many fronts.
On our own front, caught un
prepared and outnumbered by a
fully prepared enemy, we are los
ing ground. Slowly and stubborn
ly, and sellln; every foot of if
dearly, but until reinforcements
arrive we shall probably continue
to lose ground.
From the other fronts, the news
is good. The Russians continue
to push forward. The British
continue to ohase the weakened
Germans and (Italians in Africa,
meanwhile preventing their re
inforcement from across the Me

spectively, for the westerners.
Not as decisively victorious was
Oregon State over St. Bonaven-
ture at Buffalo, but tin? Oregon-
Inns led throughout, running up
a lb-b lead midway in the first
hall behind the one-handed shoot
ing uf George McNutt and Paul
Valenti. Scoring rallies of the
Bonnie were nipped and the
western team finished on the
winning end of a 38-33 count.
Frank Znbowski of St. Bonaven
ture shared scoring honors with
McNutt with 11 points earh.

consideration for six weeks.
Mrs. Torrance, the former Ada
Lowland, died in a Monterrey
hospital after an automobile crash
outside that city.

Japs Try Lies By
Radio in Attempt
To Create Panic
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 29
(API The navy, disclosing that
Japanese broke in upon an Ameri
can snoru.avs broadcast to the
Philippines with false reports of
a Domuing attack on San Francis-
cc, asked radia listc-iiera -tn-'ey to
fbe watchful for such enemy ac
tivities.
"This was the iirst evidence of
an apparent new propaganda
tecnnique by the Japanese an
effort to creat panic by means of
tne airect lie," the lath naval di
trict declared.
An announcement by the navy
saia listeners In Manila were as
tonished Sunday morning when
tne regular broadcast from Sai)
rrancisco's station KGEf was in
terruptcd by announcements that
"a fleet of Japanese planes" had
bombed Sail Francisco, leaving
mucn oi tne city in iiames.
Naval intelligence officers at
Manila reported that KGEI'i
regular early morning Far East
ern broadcast was cut Into three
or four times. Each time an
English-speaking announcer read
a "flash" giving details of the
ban i ranoisco " disaster."
"The Interference," said the
navy, "obviously came from
powerful Japanese station delib
erately intruding on the KGEI
wave length.
Actually San Francisco spent
quiet night during the period it
was reported to have been attack
ed. San Francisco has had sever
al air raid warnings since war
was declared, and the army said
enemy planes have been over
northern California. . ,

Judy sat down on her cot. She
couldn't cry. She could not talk
either. The tears made a small,
hard ball in her throat around
which no words could flow. May

Maybe in 60 or 70 years when no

a few hours later refuse to go on

bride had taken a fall or could
you?
Anyway, the daredevil who had
caused all this confusion had to
suffer.
No more messages came from
anyone but Sandy the rest of that
day. Judy steadfastly refused to
read them. At 8 o'clock she fell

good news.
She didn't awaken until the
matron returned with a gray

a piece of hard toast without but

who would dare that much for
love today."
"Oh, no?"
"No!"
She looked at him closely. He
frightened her. His face was a
hard as his voice. This wasn't the
Phil she knew. Maybe It was one
3he didn't know. She wanted to
go somewhere and cry. Cry with
someone who understood. Some
one like like Sandy . . . she
caught herself up with a start
Sandy was daring, adventurous,
mad, but he was not cruel like
this. Anyway she hated him,

"Why don't you marry Sandy?"

3he could see how the public felt
about her. She caught her unshod
foot against a rusty nail and the
iail physician came to cauterize it
with an electric needle, but first
she tore strips of tulle from the
wedding dress in a vain attempt
to stop the bleeding.
The matron brought news that
Sandy had spent the night on a
chair in the outer office, and be
tween the time of Judy's arrest
and now, he had used up all his
