Our loss in planes in that time lias been 18 downed in air combat or on the ground and 1G more that failed to return because or mechanical or other difficulties. Only ten fighter pilots have been lost In that lime nine In combat and one through bombing. That is a ratio of nearly six enemy planes destroyed for each one of our own lost, counting on ly definitely destroyed planes. When the probables arc added, the ratio becomes much stronger. That Is attrition on a scale that hurls. . i t I . THE air is still full of rumors. The Moscow radio says (uncon lirmod elsewhere) that Hummel has arrived In southern Italy. (Better keep fingers crossed). By Charles V. Stanton WHO will pay the clog catcher and how much? With victory gardeners demanding protection from roaming canines, it will be necessary to provide strict enforcement of the ordinance which prohibits dugs from running at large within the city. During the past month, according to a report made to the Koscburg city council, approximately 30 unlicensed dogs have been destroyed, while a large niimbei were impounded and reclaimed by owners who paid fines foi permitting the animals t- roam at will. Nw the dog catcher is demanding more money for his services, and the city council feels that inasmuch I as the dog control district receives all of the money from dog license fees, the district is obligated for the cost of enforcement. Under provisions of the slate law. the entire county is or ganized into a dog control district with a board established for the purpose of making and enforcing regulations. Every dog within the county is required to have a county license. From this license fund, law enforcement officers are paid. 1 he board also pays damages on turkeys and livestock killed by dogs. It is the contention of the board that its authority does not include the enforcement of special control provisions, except where voted by the people concerned. Where certain sections vote to prevent dogs from running at large, the board, it is claimed, has a right to enforce the approved measure, but other wise the duties are confined to ascertaining that each dog is licensed and determining the amount of damages to be paid for depredations. Although the city of Uoseburg has a dog ordinance the measure was not passed by a vole of the people, and, therefore. the district board claims, cannot be enforced under the dog con-' trol measure unless special authority is given. The county's j dog catcher has been delegated authority by the council but he j is now seeking more money for his services. It is admitted he has a perfect right to act on behalf of the municipality in en forcement of the special city ordinance, but, the board con lends, such action will have to be voluntary and upon terms to be decided by the dog catcher and the council. But again the question of revenue arises. 1 he county col lects all the dog license fees. The city gets none of the money. OUT OUR WAY By J. R.

Ore., April 7. 'AP - The knife slaying of a pretty Virginia bride as she lay in low er berth 13 of a speeding train brought liobcrt E. Lee Folkes, 20 vcar old I-os Angeles Negro din ing car cook, to trial today on a first degree murder charge. I'ulkes is accused of culling the throat ot Mrs. Martha Virginia James, 21, bride of a naval en sign and member of a prominent Virginia family, before dawn Jan. 23 while the Southern Pacific's West Coat Limited rocketed through Oregon en route to Cali fornia. Ueeause of traffic congestion, Mrs. James' husband, on his way to a new assignment, was on an other train. Several days later Folkes was arrested in Los Angeles.

In any event, control of dogs will cost money. This situation is another of those in which a municipality is considered as separate and apart from the county in which il is situated. There seems to be a tendency to overlook the act that a large pait of county revenue comes from municipalities.! The total county valuation is around thirty million dollars. I he cily of Koscburg has an assessed valuation of more than four million dollars. 1 hus the municipality contiibules around 13 per cent of the county general fund. Other municipalities of the county likewise pay on an assessed valuation basis. In re turn the cilies ami towns arc entilled to some consideration in the expenditures by county agencies. 1 he problem is one that calls for the eailicst possible solution by straight appioath, as technical sidestepping, in justice to all concerned.
