Hankow railroad, which Is more than 100 miles DOWN the Yangtze from the Jap base at Ichang. This, If true, Is highly impor tant, us it means that by cutting the river transport line (rail roads and highways are few and far between In this part of China) the Japs at Ichang nay be cut off. There arc indications that the Chinese may be headed towurd the bl(j air base at Changsha, which the Chinese built for US to use against Japan but which the Japs took. THERE'S still nothing much but rumors from F.urope. 'Die ru mors, however, have taken a new turn. Yugoslav General Mihailovic's guerrillas are said to have surged up in such force as tp.nslvc com pelled the Germans to abandon 1200 square miles of territory. Greek guerrillas have captured an Italian-held village In the Pindus mountains! where the Greeks made their epic stand something over a year ago), kill ing 300 Italians and taking 80 prisoners. London reports the Jews rising in Poland, with TERRIBLE con sequences to themselves 2000 of them shot by the Germans, .')000 burned to death, etc. . At least, these rumors give us a glimpse of what the Germans will be up against If and when. THE Russians raise to 11)2 their figure on the number of planes they shot out of the S(X) plane armada the Germans sent against them-a truly staggering percentage. FOUR limes now the British fleet has shelled the Italian fortress island of Pantelleria with NO COMEBACK from axis forces-- although for weeks Ihe Berlin radio lias been boasting the Italian fleet Is all set and ready to steam into battle at a moment's notice. IK you want to know why Pan lellelia is so Important, take a look al your map and try to ligure out how you'd get ships through Ihe Sicilian strait to Sue, as long as the German; and Italians hold this Malta liku tin lifieil rock.

By Charles V. Stanton COME automobile owners apparently are confused by state- ments concerning the Oregon Motor Vehicle Safety Respon sibility law, which goes into effect Wednesday, June 9. Dealers in automobile insurance have been utilizing a great deal of ad vertising space to call the attention of motorists to the protec tion afforded by liability policies. The purpose of the law is simple. It was passed to afford protection to the responsible motorist. Records show that dur ing 1942 there were 70,000 Orcgonians involved in automo bile accidents. Many of these accidents were caused by care less or reckless drivers who carried no liability insurance and who had no personal assets from which innocent parties could recover damages for personal injuries or loss of property. After June 9 each party to an automobile accident, whether at fault or not, must immediately report the accident to the police authorities and also furnish proof of financial responsi bility. It is not required that he have an insurance policy. He can, if he prefers, furnish a surety bond or make a cash deposit of $1 1,000 to be held for an indefinite time pending settlement of damage claims. If he fails to show such proof of financial responsibility, the secretary of state is instructed to suspend the operator's license and all registration certificates of the owner, "unless and until he has furnished, and thereafter maintains, proof of financial responsibility." Proof is not required to be furnished until after nn accident occurs. Some drivers may hope to avoid accidents and, in the ' If A I'm It RoOCOVpIt strength of their optimism, will fail to provide themselves with!"'''''" llwUJCfvllf protection. If they are fortunate enough to escape a wreck, they are indeed lucky. It is not always the reckless or irrespon-1 siblc, driver who has accidents. Disaster frequently arises from mechanical failure, weather conditions or other factors which eliminate any moral responsibility. Vet the driver may be technically to blame for the accident and may be held liable (or damages. The law is designed to weed out the irresponsible drivers. A good many lives probably will be lost and much damage caus ed before they are all off the road, but the continued operation of the law would eventually insure possibility for persons suf fering injury or damage in automobile accident to obtain finan cial redress. Because insurance policies provide ihe easiest and least complicated way to show financial responsibility, insur ance dealers are urging such policies upon the motor vehicle I owner. While on the subject of insurance, it might be well to answer the question a great many people have been asking since the Roseburg fire department's excellent run to Sutherlin Saturday night. We have had many people ask why the fire department ' can go to neighboring towns, but cannot go a block outside the city limits when a building is on file just beyond the municipal boundary? The answer is: insurance. All members of I lie fife department are protected under the industrial accident feature of the workmen's compensation law. The regulations provide that fire departments of one municipality may go to the aid of another and the protection for firemen is in force while cn route as well as while engaged in fighting (ire. The same ap plies to property under protection through a contract with the city for service outside the limits. If, however, the ire depart ment goes into territory which has no contract or municipal or ganization, the workmen's compensation coverage is invalidated. ' In such case a fireman injured in fighting (ire would be able to; collect damages from the city. Taxpayers in each municipality pay taxes toward maintenance of local fire departments. There-, fore, a mutual aid arrangement is equitable. Hut the law rec-l ognizes that property owners contiibuting nothing toward main- tenance of fire fighting equipment and organizations have no 1 right to demand services at the expanse of cither taxpayers. Pro vision iB made whereby areas adjoining a city may form file protection districts or may contract with cities for fire fie,lil-! ing services, but departments are barred from giving sue h aid 1 unless such arrangements have been made in advance. I TAKE and no ITT. The miners are merely going after what the demagogues have been telling them is their DUE. Escaped Oregon Convict Captured La GRANDE.

Anyway we're half right you'll hear It on Tues day but at 8:15 this week. Boy's Town has to move down to 8:30 and Dr. Wainseott gets a vaca tion this week, unless we can slip his fifteen-minute health talk in later sometime. We know lots of you follow these talks regularly and we hope we can catch up with it later if so, we'll give you plenty of advance notice so you won't miss it. Now, for other Tuesday spots remember your "Eyes Aloft" program is Tuesday mornings at 11:00 o'clock now, and the re turn of Nick Carter is another regular Tuesday show at (i:30. As for the fight- this is sort of an extra dividend, being on Tuesday night; and with another battle royal coming on Friday, it makes three lights within a week, which is something of a record. Tues day's bout is a 15 rounder be tween Jimmy Bivins and Lloyd Marshall. While officially they're battling for the Duration light heavyweight championship, i t seems to be a generally accepted fact that the winner will be re- i cognized as the world's 17.r)-pound king after the war is over. Any way, it should lie a good fight, so tune in ut 7:00 o'clock Tues day night. Return Here Mr. and Mrs. Paul Ilouser have returned to their home in this city, following a short visit with relatives and friends In Eugene.

IP " Ml Liquor Ration Cut To Pint a Week PORTLAND, Ore., June 7 -(AP) More drastic rationing of liquor, considered inevitable for several weeks as Oregon's sup plies dwindled, became a fact aft er the close of business Saturday and henceforth each purchaser will be limited to one pint a week, or a quart or fifth in two weeks, of any spiritous liquor. Although an Oregon customer may buy a full quart or fifth of liquor at one time, the two-weeks ration Is not cumulative. That is, the customer may not skip a week and buy a quart the next week. A week gone is gone for ever. A quart or fifth bought one week cancels the following week. But he may buy a pint each week. ol.Y.MI'IA, Wash., June 7 (API Liquor rationing quotas were cut in half loday and liquor stores will sell one pint of whis key or gin to a consumer per week instead of a quart as lias been previously allowed permit holders. I Oregon and Montana hoards are introducing similar rations. British Columbia limits pur chases to 13 ounces a month, and Idaho allows a quart per week. Shoe Ration Stamp 18 Not Good Before June 16 Reports coming into the shoe rationing division of the district i OPA brought a warning that stamp number IS in war ration book 1 does not become effective I for the purchase of u pair of shoes until June 1(1. j Shoe dealers who accept stamp 18 before the valid dale are vio lating the wartime rationing reg ulations governing Ibis item, i OPA officials declared, as are also persons who offer stamp IS to a dealer before June Hi. Stamp number 17 in book one is valid ' for one pair ut shoes through j June 13. I MEN, WOMEN!
