At the southern end of the Caucasus fighting, they ore reported lo have Georgievsk half surrounded, i Consult your map.) They are narrowing the mouth of the sack, and at the same time I are squeezing Its bottom and I sides. The squeezing is necessary, for the Germans are of course pouring in all the supplies and reinforcements they can spare along the main line of the Hos-tov-Haku railroad. The dispatches say the Ger man defenses In the Caucasus are apparently CRUMBLING FAST. IX northern Africa, allied bomb-1 I crs hit hard in the Gabes area, at the southern end of the rail road running down along the Mediterranean from Tunis. Their purpose seems to be to stop a Junction with Rommel's army. Gabes, at the end of the Tunis railroad, is now Rommel's main base of supply. OUT OUR WAY By J. R. Williams Gloomies, Indians, Advertisers A FEW minutes ago our spirits were lower than a Jap's honor. We could have scratched our chin with a big toe without stooping. The Gloomies were thicker than Gremlins on an overdue bomber. Eut now the world is rosy, our spirits are high, und life is really worth living. What brought about such a sud den transformation? Why, a friend thought enough of us to sit down and scratch off u few lines of commendation. A linotype operator who had been working on n temporary basis an nounced he liked tin; job and was going to stay. An advertiser came in voluntarily with a fine piece of contact business. Another ad vertiser, already on contract, add ed some more Inches to his space. A woman came in and subscribed lor the paper and declared thai tdio liked the News-Review hel ler than any home-town paper she had seen. f' Isn't it surprising how uur tpirits can perk up from a few kind words, a little . unexpected business, good news or a sudden lucky break? The Rosebtirg high school In dians turned In two victories Frf ttay and Saturday nights to open their southern Oregon district basketball season. No spectator present could say he failed to get his money's worth in those two games, which the buys won by one-point margins. The disap pointing fact was that there were not more spectators. Of course, no one knew in advance that there would be two such bang-up games in a row, but that Is one of the interesting tilings about sports- you never know what will happen next. The Indians are scheduled to play at home again this week and will meet Marsh field Saturday night. Roseburg won from Marshlield In a pre season game, and hopes to re peat. Let's all turn out and lend vocal and moral support lo the Indians. Ni OTHING detinite has been heard from Rommel for days. He may be at Tripoli now. Wes Gallagher, AP correspon dent in northern Africa, says most allied observers think Tri loll can't be defended and expect the axis lo concentrate its eflorts on getting Rommel's forces into Tunisia. He is expected to make a stand at the border between Trl- politana and Tunisia, where the: French had constructed a "little Maginot" line. An officer at allied headquar ters In northern Africa, quoted in the dispatches, puts It this way: "If the Germans attempt a stand at the border, which way will they turn the guns the French provided? If they turn them to the west, the British 8th army will attack from the roar. If they turn -them eastward, WE'LL attack from the rear." A. ..-.-ft' i 1 ' K . VVFfcE .PDTTIM' FINE BUT PO YOU A.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 There was a whoop-de-do last spring when people thought for a period long after the war there will be gosh awful taxes. In addition to the national debt there will be the interest on that sum and heavy taxes to maintain a large army and air lorce and flying fields in all parts of the country, for Unci? Sam is to be a world policeman, and there will be a two-ocean navy. There also will be the cost of rehabili tating countries freed from Heir Hitler and Yamamolo. .. The United States will pay in lives and money a heavy price KRNR Mutual Broadoattlng 8ytem, 1490 Kilocycles. News of Men From Douglas County In War Service "There .are a few tents and some airplanes. There is not a building of any kind within miles. All it is, is just a piece of ground that it's possible io land planes on. The boys who are lucky sleep in tents, the un lucky ones sleep out in the open the ingenious ones make little Igloos out of empty gasoline cans." Such is the description furnished by Lieutenant Coloiie Frank Hills of Roseburg of .lie district in which lie now is Jo cated in North Africa. Colonel Hills is a member of an army service group attached to forces engaged In bombing Tu nis, Bizerte, Sfax and Gabes. A copy of "Stars and Stripes, the service mens newspaper, was mailed to the News-Review by Colonel Hills, providing an Interesting and intimate account of some of the exciting action in his area. Of local interest is the picture appearing In the Oregon Jour nal last Sunday of Lieutenant W. B. Howell of Prairie City, Oregon, the photo being taken as he left Buckingham palace, .ic companied by his English wife and her mother after he had been presented with the Disting uished Flying Cross by King George of England.

That dwarfs anything In his tory, so there's untiling to com pare it with. Don't try lo make comparisons. Just grit your teelh and tighten your bell. II HAS TO BE DONE. Homeowners in Roseburg will find a great deal of Interest in a .series of advertisements to be sponsored daily in the News Review by the Coen Lumber com pany. Although new construction is limited, there is no regulation ngainst many types of alterations and improvements and. with the prospect of spending more time In our homes tor the duration, ihie to travel restrictions, sug gestions for domestic eomlort, utility and beauty are particular ly timely. Aside Irom war savings bonds, there Is no heller place to invest money than in Hie home. I And the Coen Lumber eompanv hits not overlooked uar saving.; bonds, for a new idea is intro duced in the company's proposal lo sell building lots on a monthly payment equal lo the cost of a war bond, with the money to be Invested by the company in bonds on which the interest will he credited to the purchaser until j six months after the end of the; war. An investment In a home1 linked with a patriotic use of the money is really a smart idea. j 1 IN his message, FDR ioliils out that this represents three times Uie German, four times Hie Bill ish and II limes the Jap spend Illg- Don't try to make dollar com parisons. They're useless -and misleading. The Germans and the Japs are GETTING MORE FOR WHAT THEY SPEND. What It amounts to is putting I he hulk of our production effort into war, and as such it's OK. There's nothing to be gained by lighting with one hand. We'd better light with BOTH hands and get it over with. IN message, FDR his budget says: "Victory can't be bought with ANY AMOUNT of money, how ever large. Victory is achieved by the blood of soldiers, the sweat ot workers, both men anil women, of the supreme court, federal Judges or those under civil service. All these lame ducks have to do to qualify is to get a federal Job and their time snetn as a member of congress Mill count toward their relirenien'. And there is a grand scraml-l." lo get back on the le l-i-il pay roll by the 100-odd new dealers who were displaced by reptibl!': ans. There is no hope for any of the Jew republicans who failed of re-election lo laud a govern ment job; only (he faithful i rue believing new dealers can quali fy for something. II ex-Repre sentatives Smith, Hill or Pierce mane a connection llie in years they served In congress will be credited toward their federal pension. This trio came into con gress on the Roosevelt wave orig inally and held onto their seats while the Harry Hopkins policy of "tax, and tax. and tax, anil spend and spend" brought relief ers lo the polls to keep new deal ers in office. Nebraska's Norris will be given a lame duck job and as he has served 1(1 years as representative and senator and is now past the voluntary retire ment age, he Is automatically eligible for a nice pension cheek regularly from the government after lie has served in a new capacity for a few weeks. The list ol new deal senators tone termers i being given lame duck appointments is imnressive gross will go In holding the sad is debatable. It is said that con gress will seek, at least, to have other countries assist In servic ing the national debt. The presi dent and administration spokes men have outlined (without de tails) what the United States will do In stabilizing the world. I lie new congress will have an opportunity to begin studying the war and what should be done when peace comes. A resolution I will be offered to create a bipar tisan committee ot Zl members, 12 from the house and 12 from the senate, to keep an eye on the progress, learn where the money is going and study ad ministration plans. This resolu tion may not be adopted but something of the sort is certain to emerge eventually. It is not the intention of trainers of the resolution to outline militarv campaigns, for that is the dmy of army and navy, but It is the wish to keep in touch with what the armed forces are doing and also to be informed of the pro gram of rehabilitation soon to !o started by Herbert Lehman.
