Because of bad weather we haven't been able to oust the Japs, The United Nations arc, being pushed around, and our mercurial nubile nulse has sunk to a de- nresslna low. The totally dcaf are fortunate, iney, at least, . ... tinert not listen to arm chair ntra- tcglsts proclaiming that our cause has become hopeless, that We can't expect to beat the axis, that we are losing the war. The fault is largely that of w York L7I Chlt-iiKo :it;o N panty-walst publicity we have whose "victory through Air Pow been getting from Washington, """ Is the latest textbook on the nartlcularlv. and also from other United Nations capitals. But that is another story. We hope Elmer Davis has been clvcn sufficient authority to correct that evil.' Meanwhile, let's buck up, and recall the dark days of Pcnri Harbor, Batavla, Singapore, Cor- regldor unless we prefer to tor ture ourselves by going back to tlio fall of Belgium, Holland, France, Yugoslavia and Greece, to Dunkirk, to the months when only a few super-optlmlsts dared PLANES from the navy's carri hopc England could survive more ers. than day by day. These are trying times, mili tarily. But by comparison with 39-10 and 1941 we're on a bed of roses with the big thorns remov ed. From the start it was obvious that our Job divided into two ma jor tasks. First, we had to stop a clever, aggressive enemy, who had . more troops, more planes, more tanks, more of everything than we, plus the advantage of being in position to name the game and fix the rules. Second, we had to hold that enemy while we transformed the United Slates Into a war factory, nd raised and trained nn army and manufactured the materiel una ouiic me snips witn which to lake men and armament and mu nitions and food where they could be used. By contrast with Hitler's al most unopposed conquests of 1910 and ism, we have stopped the axis. Still losing a bit here and there, now we are making the enemy pay a price he cannot af ford for victories which are seri ous to us but not necessarily con clusive. Meanwhile we are rolling up a military machine before which the axis powers cannot continue to stand. The losses wo are suffering will prolong the war. We must retrieve them before we can go on to victory. But we knew those who were alert that there were hard davs and sorrowful nights ahead. Wc knew that we should have to lose more before we could begin to win. Let's not abandon our sense of proinrllon. It's not seesaw up and down with every local battle. Let's oorrect our mistakes, for get our grouching, strengthen our resolution and remember that omelets can't be made Until eggs have been broken.

Watch it. If this rail line broken, It will be a serious loss to the Russians although they will ''still have lesser rail lines In their rear for receiving supplies and moving troops. IF you want to follow these 1 moves at all Intelligently, you'll have to consult your map. With- I out a good map, the news is merely a meaningless Jumble of umamillar names. THE navy gives out now sta tistics on the losses Inflicted on the Japs In the Midway fight. According to these figures, ten Jap warships, including FOUR carriers and two heavy cruisers, arc known to have been sunk. Two more are believed to have been sunk and between 10 and 12 damaged.

Concerning the NORTHWEST At Viewed at the National Capitol By John W. Kelly WASHINGTON, D. C, July 1 Flying hospitals are now being built for the army air force and the war department will have scores of these to evacuate casu alties from the battlefield, from Alaska or wherever, to the near est station where the injured will receive the best of care. The nazis have moved 200,000 wound ed troopers in this manner. The flight surgeons (five have been killed and six are missing, either dead or injured, since Pearl Har bor) under the latest and great est of all time appropriation bills will receive 50 per cent addition al flight pay, the same as every other officer. The flying hospi tal will be able to carry Injured 1,000 or 2,000 miles a safe place In a matter of hours. In a big way the war depart ment will be provided with cargo planes. By the end of this year the government will have a vast flotilla to transport troops or cargo. In addition to the planes built for the government there are the commercial planes Which have been taken over. The en tire number runs into the thou sands. Germany uses 16 per cent of all its planes for transporting cargo. There is at the moment a plan to build 900 stainless steel cargo planes in an assembly plant near Philadelphia which will employ l.SOO people and cost 12,000,000. These cargo carriers are to be commercial and they, together with the army air freighters, forecast a new means of trans portation after the war. The truck lines of the entire country will be affected. Cargo planes will ignore state barriers, such as trucks have contended with in Oregon, for they will fly across state lines and landing fields now available at small hamlets as well as large cities, thanks to the war department, will be places for loading and discharging freight. Truck Rule Face Fight Mention was made a few days 'at the war department has nrfTiarfifl an nrrlar frt'hlHHlnr m- prepared an order forbidding mo- j tor trucks to carry supplies more that 300 miles; if the freight is destined beyond that It must go by rail. Tho 11 western states are preparing to battle the war department and kill the order, if possible.

Tears and blood are gushing forth to form a rolling stream along the high ways of the world. Uncertain ty, suspicion and hatred are planted deep in human hearts. There is no escape from the uncertainties of life. Life is often severe. It abounds in mis fortunes. If we are to have any peace or outward stability, we must learn to live above the "frets and frictions." If we try to escape the difficult places we only come back to face them with a tired and less ade quate self. If we would, have inner nobility, we must be courageous enough to pass through the hard places into the glorious open spaces of deepened understanding and enlarged living. No, there is no escape from the uncertainties of life, but there is relaxation from inner tension, and re-cre ation of the inner self in touch ing God and in sensing His eternity. Jesus said: "In the world ye shall have tribula tion," but, "be of good cheer I. have overcome the world." Af ter long and dreary days, we shall triumph. Christ never did promise immunity from suffer ing, but He does assure us that we shall be victorious in the end. If thou lovest God, thou wilt not be afraid of anyone or anything. Amen. In Los Angeles report 85 per cent of their freight has been military supplies hauled to Idaho, Ore gon and Washington. This freight would require hundreds of rail road cars (there are now 8,000 railroad cars at various embarka tion ports waiting for ships) and deprive the trucks of business. Trucks now handle 18 per cent of all freight. Sales Tax Raises Issue Army and navy officers have appeared 'before the appropria tions committee and suggested that congress take some action on the 22 states which have a sales tax. Missouri figures, for example, that it will make a cleanup of about $15,000,000 this year by tapping war purchases.

The suggestion to the committee is that congress pass legislation exempting govern men materials from the sales tax and, if necessary, subsidize tho states. In congress some of the senators from sales tax states are declaring that any action try ing to interfere with the tax would be an invasion of states rights. Washington and Ida.ho have a sales tax; Oregon has none. Road Dispute Unsettled Advocates of a road to Alns' do not Intend letting somcoff!' otR ? "get away" with the prairie route now being built. Delegate Anthony Dimond has introduced a bill for another road along the route desired by Alaskans and the people of the Pacific north west, one which is, essentially, an extension of the Pacific highway. The road now under construc tion by the army engineers will serve a couple of air fields In Canada and any supplies moving over it would come from Chica go. Alaska and the northwest are demanding a highway Which will be available to Oregon and Washington. An army officer S says "we are not interested in 5 tourist travel," and insists the 1 prairie route is the one to build, i There are eastern congressmen who say there is something "pet culiar" about the prairie route. jj ( r Baptist Woman's Society toi Meet The Roseburg Baptist Wo- V' man's society will meet Thurs- I day at two o'clock at the church ' parlors with Mrs. R.
