Editorial on New
(CoaUaued ron page 1.)
in the Mediterranean in spite of
the transfer to that area of near
ly one-fourth of the German air
power.
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.
