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.

are apparently CRUMBLING

at the southern end of the rail

purpose seems to be to stop a

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."

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

"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

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

IN his message, FDR ioliils out
that this represents three times
Uie German, four times Hie Bill

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

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.
