METERANS of the first world war can well remember the controversy that raged around the question, "Who won the war?" For a time the rival claims of the resective allies regarding contributions to the victory as sumed great Importance. The American doughboy, however, ef fectively settled the matter with the artswer "The Salvation Army." From the present outlook no such question will be raised after the close of the current war. The answer obviously Is Russia. No matter what may happen in the future, Russia Is entitled to full credit for taking the blitz out of the blitzkrieg. The mechanism which permitted the great Ger man army to roll almost unhin dered through Poland, Czechoslo vakia, . France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Denmark has been badly battered by the Rus sian bear. The motors no longer hum, the gears fall' to mesh smoothly and the whole machine shows signs of becoming a total wreck. Through the fresh paint of propaganda camouflage it is easy to see that Iho framework is out of line and the body and tenders full of dents. The German machine, however, (till holds the Russian Bear with lis back to the wall, and the So viets, despite their valiant resis tance, are pleading for a second front to divert some of the power of the na.l might. In their de mands for diversionary acllon the Russians have the sympathy of all of the peoples of the allied nations. Doubtless the second front will be opened, but I he de cision of when and where must be determined by the military minds. Like a football coach, who wears a giant fullback to exhaus tion pounding the line while waiting the opportune time to send his- last backfield into the game to skirt the ends, the allied command apparently has been awaiting a break. Great Britain and the United States, however, dare not wait much longer to lake over the job of carrying the hall and even then, though they may score the touchdowns, Russia must still be credited as the outstanding star of the game. A second front in Europe, allied leaders say, will be extremely costly in men and materials, but Russia, which Wendell Wtllkie reports, already has suffered five million war casualties, will hard ly be in u mood to accept the pos sibility of losses as an excuse for failure to assume the offensive.

WrcY.Hot til THERE have been other scrap ' metal drives. Much scrap has been collected. Good work has been done. Everyone w ho has lielpcd is entitled to thanks.

They have accepted the respon sibility and are doing their best first to acquaint the public with the REAL NEED and later to help with the organization of fa cilities for actual collecting of the scrap. Later on, you will be told ex actly how your scrap can be got to the dumps In every commun ity so that it can find its way in to the war effort. Right now the thing for you to do is to figure out every possible pound of metal that can be spar ed from your, establishment whether It Is a home, a business place or a mill or factory. The collection will be arranged for later. 1IIATEVER you do, DON'T " SCOFF. Whatever may have been the case with scrap aluminum, old papers, etc., the need Is REAL this time. Please don't hold back.

It appears that a wide differ ence of opinion exists between Wilson Compton, secretary andt manager of the National Lumber Manufacturers association, and officials of WPB over the acute ness of the lumber shortage which is said to exist. WPB has recently stated that , the lumber shortage is so critical ! that all civilian supplies will have r to be cut off. WPB had recently estimated that production, this year will lack seven billion feet of meeting the demand and is now reported to feel that the ' shortage will be even greater. I Compton, however, counters with the statement that the recent de-1 mands from army, navy, marl time commission, war shipping administration, defense plant corporation, lend-lease administra tion, and treasury procurement does not exceed a billion feet a month, whereas It is estimated that production this year will reach 30 billion feet. j The labor situation is held to be the main reason for an estimated decrease In lumber production this year of about eight per cent J under last year. Despite efforts of WPB and the manpower com mission to stablize labor In lum-. ber camps, WPB is said to feel that the labor situation will grow worse In 1943 with a correspond ing decrease In production.

Military Taxation Sentiment continues to mount for pay-as-you-go federal Income tax plan. Now it Is being pointed out that the Ruml plan or some thing similar should be adopted to protect men w ho will be called into selective service. Under exist ing law income tax payments may be deferred until six months after they are released from service, but it is not likely that many soldiers in that brief period of time will be back on a sound financial basis. Also as the law now stands, any federal taxes owed by a soldier who is killed in action becomes a lien upon his estate and may be collected in the usual manner.

The Bible is a pictorial representa tion of spiritual reality.

In every gaWen of de light, inhabited by the unde veloped Innocence of healthy appetite there comes a divfne voice establishing the differ ence between good and evil. The mark of any culture Is its capacity to make distinctions. Life enters Into peace and Joy or drops into fear and shame as It heeds or disobeys the di vine voice in life's garden. So many men and women are liv ing today without interest In spiritual values and without feeling the necessity of making distinction between good and evil, right and wrong.

Argentine Deputies Ask Break With Axis BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 30 (AP) The Argentine chamber of deputieswithout any hope of success laid before President Castillo today a resolution recom mending an immediate rupture of diplomatic relations between Ar gentina and the axis countries.
