The epidemic of dog poisonings which started In this area a few weeks ago, appears to be continuing, for J. H. Mutton, local manager for the Portland General Electrlo company, reported last week that his cocker spaniel had died, ap. parently as the result of eating strychnine.

Ho said many gardens have been damaged by dogs al ready this spring. House G. O. P. Set for Battle on Ruml Plan (Continued rrom page 1.) all of one tax year, were in the air. As the fourth day of one ot the bitterest tax bailies in history op ened on the house floor, Repre sentative Jenkins (It., Ohio) de clared that "90 per cent of the American people" want the Carl son -Ruml bill, and that the "no abatement" measure submitted by a majority of the ways and means committee "has practically been abandoned by many lead ing democrats." Compromise Opposes Representative Knulson (R., Minn. I ways and means mem ber, said Ihe minority force would resist "to the end" any at tempt al a compromise- a trend which he said was gathering I force on the democratic side. I Despite Knutson's stand, Rep I resenlatlve Miller ( ft., Neb.), told ! Ihe house that he believes "we're heading for a compro mise." Jenkins said in this speech thai "those who are talking compro mise know that tho people will just not accept the committee bill," adding: "The people want to pay as they go and do not want lo pay two years in one. They just can not do it. The Carlson bill Is Ihe only way out. There should he no compromise with right. The people are supporting tills plan regardless of party affilia tion and congress should not make it a party matter. There is nothing political about paying taxes." Mareth Line Crushed; Rommel's Army Retreats (Continued trom page 1.) broke under the strain. Bombs of one raiding forma tion were still bursting as the planes of the succeeding forma tion arrived over Ihe targets. From SO to 1 00 axis vehicles wore destroyed. The aerial bombardment was following up by an artillery shell ing and finally by a rifle and bay onet attack. There was Utile fighl left in many Germans when the final ground assault was made, though some, in well protected areas, battled to the end. It was Ihe hour which the British desert lighters had been awaiting since General Monlconicry dispatched them around the southern end of the Mareth line last week in a sweeping Hanking movement. The desert lighters were re ported only 15 miles short of closing the Gabes gap when Konimel gave way. His position al G.tbrs is cer tainly vulnerable. N.izis Grab Italian N.ivy.

CHARLES A. EDWARDS This year perhaps more than others there Is a deeper yearning In men's hearts for the lenlen messages. The ex perience or our Lord during those weeks In so many ways parallels our own. His man ner of meeting Ihem stood Him lo be steadfast In faith In God, and His triumph and victory is the Christian hope and confidence. The world today is passing through a fiery furnace of affliction which will test its very soul. What we art! witnessing is the cumulative effect ot man's at tempt to Ignore God and trust In His own strength. When man tries that ho miserably fails. The unprecedented con trol over the forces of nature which man has acquired dur ing the past century has plac ed more power than ever in His hands, and lent support to the jiagan philosophy that man was the end of all being. Un der this conviction humanism became popular among uni versity professors and stud ents. Self-interest as a way )f life resulted in a mad, and ndecent scramble for wealth. The stock market boom, the riot of reckless living, the jreakdown of the home, the ust for excitement and pleas ure were the natural results of a civilization which had all but bowed out God. The church during the lenten season can do no greater service to the nation than to help men In their search for God, for we all need God. The suffering, wrrow and tragedy of the present day has never been quailed and tragedy of the jresent day has never been equalled, and the worst is not fet, but God is sufficient, imen. ences between Admiral Doenitz, supreme commander of' the Ger man navy, and Admiral Riccardi, commander of the Italian navy. Doenitz has been placed in command of the Italian fleet, the correspondent reported, and It was surmised that 11 (luce's bat tle fleet might soon be soit out of hiding, either for offensive operations or to battle an allied invasion force.

Main St. Phone 352 TOW CAR SERVICE GENERAL REPAIRS Berlin, St. Nazaire, Rouen Blasted by Bombs (Continued from page 1.) railroad yards at Rouen, France, I smashed at Norwich, England, during the night. Hit-and-run German raiders ap- pared over the south coast this ' morning and made a direct hit on j a school clinic in a coast town. Rescue workers began digging i in the wreckage for members ot !the staff and any pupils who , might have been trapped there. ' Authorities said two enemy air craft were destroyed during night ; raids on Britain. Nazis Admit Big Losses 1 The great load ot almost 900 tons of bombs hurled down on Berlin Saturday night was almost double the heaviest total of ex : plosives and incendiaries the Ger man air force dropped on London , in its heaviest attack. (The German high command I communique broadcast from Ber lin and recorded by the Associ ; ated Press said allied air attacks ; against occupied western terri- tory caused "heavy losses" among : the population. (The communique claimed de struction of 18 planes there and , over the Norwegian coast, an ! area that the allies did not men ! tlon.) Last night's RAF attack on St. , Nazaire was the 4Gth of the war Kind the fifth this year. The base I was hit by the RAF last Monday night and by the United States ' army air force in daylight Feb. 1 10 and March 1. 1 Rouen Suffers Heavily I Reuters heard a broadcast by ' the German-controlled Paris radio J reporting "considerable" damage i to private homes in yesterday's : raid by United States planes on j had been recovered. ; Rouen.

Besides the ter rific plastering ot Berlin, opera tions in the past 3G hours included attacks on Rotterdam, Dulsberg and axis communications in Hol land and Germany. During the previous two weeks, heavy fog had given tho enemy a brief re spite. Jap Routed in Naval Battle Off Aleutians (Continued rrom page 1.) clared today that Japanese naval units had fought an engagement with "enemy" warships off the Aleutian islands on March 23, damaging two cruisers ami a de stroyer while suffering only slight losses. Following the engagement, Ihe communique said, "the enemy re tired eastward in disorderly flight." The "enemy" forces were said to consist of one heavy cruiser, WEDNESDAY INDIAN Vol. v. No. 7. Published Mfgrs. of Food for Victory There is no very good reason for The Douglas County Flour Mill to urge farmers to pro duce food to the maximum of their nbilitv. There are forty Federal agencies already doing that. But we know from talking with you folks that you are go ing to do your best. Most of you already have a son, broth er, or other relatives and lots of friends in the armed serv ices, and you are not going to let them down, even if you have to produce food at a loss. Brooder houses are mush rooming up all over the county like a Federal Housing Pro ject. Proves you are going to raise more chicks and turkeys. And if there isn't too much in terference from Washington, we have no doubt you will pro duce more grain, hay. wool and butterfat. As to the outlook for prices, thev will be as good as OPA will let them ho. There are manv conflicting reports on the amount of meat which will be produced. Some commenta tors sav there is more, and others say less. But whichever is right, 'there won't be too much. The huge demand from the armed forces, lend-lease and for home consumption will take care of any surplus, should any develop. Poultry storage holdings are dwindling faster than ever be fore in history, and by the time Fall comes there won't be enough left in storage to wad a shotgun. So even if there are twice as many turkeys pro duced as last year, it won't be supply that holds down prices. W hat we are trying to get at is: raise as much as you can in the way of poultry and meat animals, but plan to make use of every iota of home grown feed, pasture, green feed and range you possibly can. tl FEE1 ilfi one light cruiser and several destroyers.

Coccidiosis and Coxey The Coxey season is with us again. To date there hasn't been enough to worry about. That is one advantage of early hatched chix. But from now on, you wil have to be on the watch for it. As we have often mentioned before, many poultrymen spend a lot of time looking for bloody droppings, and let their chix die of Coxey because they don't see them. We now have seven types of Coxey, and every chick is subject to each of ihem. They might even get them one at a time like the kids do measles. But usually they don't. Any time your chix go off their feed, get droopy or start huddling without reason, be suspicious thev have "it." For tunately, we have here at the Flour Mill a very good Coxev control. We have' used "lotein" mash for eight or nine years, and have witnessed many ap parently miraculous recoveries. Practically all authorities now recommend that chix he allowed to contract Coxey ear ly in life, in order to become immune or highly resistant to it. They recommend control measures, to prevent it getting too severe, to be sure. And there is where "lotein" mash comes into the picture. If you suspect that your chix have Coxey, put "lotein" mash before them immediately, and keep it there from two to four days, cleaning the house at the beginning and end of treat ment. It is non toxic to the chix. so don't be afraid of using it- "lotein" mash has saved thousands of chix that grew in to good pullets which would otherwise have been culls or to tal losses. The way to get the best of an argument it to avoid it. Una
