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

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. Representatives of the
motor track industry of Washing
ton, Idaho, Oregon and California
have come to the national capital

DAILY DEVOTIONS
DR. CHAS. A. EDWARDS
We are In the midst of great
tribulation. 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.

extension of the Pacific highway.
The road now under construc

Canada and any supplies moving
