OVER the woekend, our air forces mado several heavy raids on Italy and hor Modltor ranncan Islands. Returning pilots describe the resistance encounter ed there as far less effective than in Germany. That suggests (though it doesn't prove) that the Germans are keeping the bulk of their de fensive armament both planes and anti-aircraft guns AT HOME instead of sending them to Italy. This, In turn, suggests the pos sibility (no more than a possibil ity) that their plan may be to give up Italy if the going gets hard and retire to thc-defenslve line of the Alps. YOU mustn't jump to wrong conclusions here. Giving up Italy would be a sign of weakness. Giving up ANY THING because you can't hold onto 1 is a sign of weakness. But Buch a move would shorten the German lines and make fewer troops MORE effective. Long centuries of fighting leave no doubt whatever that the line of the Alps is an extremely strong defensive line. THERE'S a rumor that Marshal Kcitcl, chief of the German general staff, has arrived In Bul garia to organize a unified axis command In the Balkans, To get the significance of that rumor, you u nave 10 gci uiu yuur i mup-und brush up on your his tory. The valleys of the Vardur and the Strumu provide one of the not-too-numcrous gateways by which the walls of the European fortress can be penetrated. The allies, entering this gale through Salonlki, did it in IMS. THIS gate offers both an en trance and a sully port. From it, down through the ages, con querors have Issued forth to im pose their will (or try lo) on the remainder of the Mediterranean world. Oilier conquerors have stormed and taken it In order to Impose their will upon the peoples be hind the fortress walls. THE history of Europe has been largely a history of fighting und conquest. The Intervals of peace and development have been ull too short. WITH the possibilities of laml hased aircraft freshened In your mind by our own achieve meats In the South seas, you will scan on your map the Island studded Aegean sea and wonder what the German air force would do to us if we tried lo send a sea borne Invasion force through these narrow waters. Your next thoughts (based on what your map tells you) will be concerned with TURKEY. If we should decide to storm the Salonlki F!te. it will likely 1h only AFTER the Turks have given us assurances. THE Germans are said lo be stif fening their forces in the delta of the Kuban river In the Cauca sus with large air units. 'Hie fighting there Is described as hit ter and bloody, although not on a vast scule. The Germans don't proiKise to give up their toehold on the .Cau casus side of the Bl sea until they HAVE TO. CLEAN-UP WEEK COMING WTOBIAI By Charles OOPERATION from all Roseburg residents in the Clean-up v campaign, set tor the week ot May 3 to o, inclusive, is to De urged by the city council. Emphasis is to be placed upon elimination of fire hazards, although National Fire Prevention week usually is not observed until the fall season. However, fire is one of the greatest dangers in the nation today and pre ventive measures are essential to the war effort. The housing shortage in Roseburg is an acute problem. Workers in the essential industries connected with logging, milling and wood products are coming in increasing numbers. The Western Battery Separator plans for a large-scale development here. Existing industries are expanding. At least two plywood concerns are interested in securing sites at Roseburg. Several small sawmills will prob ably be set up in the immediate vicinity of town within the next few months. Not only is it important that all residence facili ties be carefully preserved, but new construction will be neces sary to meet the forthcoming demands, which will grow with the anticipated development. Consequently it is essential that every precaution be taken to prevent any destruction of resi dence properties by fire. Furthermore, the city' fire fighting equipment is inadequate for any major emergency. Efforts to secure priorities for the purchase of needed apparatus have met with rejections. As "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," it is a wise move on the part of the council to eliminate those hazards which might become sources of destructive conflagrations. Fire seldom starts in well-tended buildings. Principal sources of fire are carelessness, defective flues, accumulated rubbish, neglected electric wiring and appliances, and other such factors which result principally from negligence. General cooperation in a clean-up campaign will) go far to provide a greater! measure of safety for lives and property. j rarticularly commendable is the spirit ot cooperation shown by so many owners in voluntary removal of buildings consti tuting fire hazards. Glenn Taylor, city fire chief, and other members of the fire department have worked diligently to seek out possible fire dangers. The council has been advised that the majority of owners of property where hazards exist have shown a willingness to cooperate by razing the buildings or by ercise of force is not desired either by the fire department or the city council and expressions tary cooperation so far obtained of both of these city groups. The clean-up campaign should not be confined to the city of Roseburg alone. It should, rather, be county-wide and should include the rural as well as the urban areas. Destruction of pasture lands, the damage to grain fields and the destruction of timber should not be permitted to approach even the nor mal of peace-time years. Food and timber production are too vital todnu to permit the wnste we have grown to accept with jflolii of interest. Protective measures should not be neglect ed in any phase of fire prevention, and a general clean-up is the turcst way of eliminating fires. KRNR Mutual Broadcasting System, 1490 Kilocycles.
