we've speculated instinctively on
where the GERMANS would
strike next.
The change is a significant
one. ,
fairly dependable news source
since the Italian trouble started,
offers a new sidelight.
Hitler, according to Italians
arriving In Spain, sent Goerlng
to Rome last week, to find out
why Mussolini had been tossed
out and to demand that he be
sent to Germany for safe keep
ing. This request Is said to have
bceti politely but firmly refused
by Victor Emanuel. '
NOTE that Italians gutting out
of the trouble zone seem to be
going In largo niinibers, tp' Spain
at least those whofcan get air
transportation. '
Why? One explanation is thai
it's farthest from Germany.
WHAT will happen In Italy is
still anybody's guess. But
what everybody WANTS In Italy
Is becoming reasonably cleaft." jf
The Germans want to hold
Italy In the war . ON THEIR
SIDE.
We want to force Italy into the
war ON OUR SIDE.
The Italians .JUST WANT
OUT. They want to say "King's
dx" and quit and go about their
business, with everybody letting
them alone.
IT'S understandable enough that
tills Is what they should want,
but It's as near certain as any
thing can ic that they won't get
It.
Once you've started a war, gett
ing out of It Isn't tluil simple and
pleasant.
A SWISS correspondent at Mil
an says an air of desperation
has settled down on the Italian
people, who scribble signs on the
walls at night reading: "Death
10 Badogllo and the king." "We
want peace and work." "The
Germans must get out of Ilaly."
That's the way they, feel about
It now. They felt different when
Mussolini was heating his bosom
and yelling for Italy's full share
of the swag, which at that time
looked Juicy.
THEN was the time Tor them
to have thrown Mussolini out.
EXCEIT here on the West
Coast, the war In the Pacific
seems to have been more or less
forgotten, but there's sllll bitter
fighting there.
At Mumla, we're moving In on
the Jap air strip from three
sides. On the south side, we've I
broken through a long COVER-1
ED trench - probably with thcj
help of flame throwers and I her-1
mite Domos, roasting ine japs
out of their deep burrows.
The Japs, as usual, are fight
ing to the last man.

GIVE THE CITY COUNCIL A HAND
.EDITORIAL.
By Charles
HE Roseburg city council
thoroughness with which it
chise for a new spur railroad track in North Roseburg. THe
franchise was granted to the Youngs Bay Lumber company,
which will build the spur from North Jackson street to the site
of its defense plant to be built just east of the city limits.
The future may disclose some mistakes, but any errorB which
may be discovered will not result from any lack of conscien
tious and thorough advance study on the part of the members
of file city council,' the city attorney antt others connected with
the plans.
Through suggestions made by councilmen, grades across pav
ed streets were improved as compared with original plans,
without materially increasing construction costs. The fran
chise agreement was given particular care in its preparation by
City Attorney A. N. Orcutt to safeguard the city from any pos
sible damages, to insure continued usage of the track, to make
the route available for future industrial developments, to pro
tcct adjacent property from water damage, and to make pos
sible any future city improvements which might involve the
right of way upon which the track will be located.
City councils have hot always been so painstaking in their
deliberations. " The City of
hasty judgment and actions on the part of councils. The fact
that the council years ago vacated property af the end of the
existing Kinney spur is one
lacking, the property beyond
of way was vacated and was incorporated in the present Rose
burg Lumber company plant. Because trackage facilities now arc
needed at points further to the
build a track roughly paralleling
derable extra cost to the new industry.
The misalignment of streets ih North Roseburg, the vaca
tion of West Commercial avenue between West First street and
Winchester street, the vacation of some alleys in the businss dis
trict, and the failure to check surveys on plats filed for opening
of new districts, such as have resulted in confusion of property
lines in Laurelwood and along Winchester street, are samples
of too hasty action by city councils in past years.
Members of the city council
men who are occupied with personal business problems. They
ave little time to give to city
less task without remuneration of any kind. They are to be
respected for the sacrifice they make for the sake of the city.
The present city council is making every effort to give whole
hearted cooperation in the industrial development of Roseburg
and surrounding area. Despite the abnormal' pressure of per-
sonal business, they are giving much time and attention to the for liberal terms, Including the
city's affairs. They are entitled to appreciation from all resi-

Chinese Exclusion
Act Repeal Urged
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10
(AP To olfset Japanese propa
ganda which he said "definite
ly is pointing toward a separate
peace with China," Rep. Gossett
(D.-Tex.) today urged repeal or
the Chinese exclusion act as soon
as congress reconvenes' next
month. '
Gossett, a member of the house
Immigration committee, declar
ed ine Japanese aireauy nave
adopted separate peace tactics by
"relenting on atrocities" in occu
pied Chlna-and by trying to win
over the pedple of those territo
ries, even' to the extent of "pass
ing out candy to Chinese chil
dren." :i
"And the Nipponese," he told
an Interviewer, "probably will of-
already legally resident in Amer
ica to become citizens.
During hearings last spring,
Kilsoo Haan, Washington repre
sentative of the SlnoKorean peo
ples league, predicted Japan
would make a peace offensive In
China by September. Hanri early
in 11141 predicted the attack on
Pearl Harbor.
Although it held long heal ings
on bills proposing repeal of the
Chinese exclusion act, the Immi
gration committee has not pre
sented legislation to the house
floor for action.

Smdll Supply Ammunition
for Bird Hunters Allowed
WASHINGTON, - Aug. 10.-
(AP) The war production board
was reported today ready to alio
cate enough materials for the
manufacture of 100,000,000 shot
gun shells for Hunting this fall
one-sixth of the output In peace
time' years.
The disclosure was made by the
office of Senator Bushfleld (R., S.
Dl)' which said WPB officials had
agreed to the program after it
was explained that game birds
were causing great damage to
crops.
WPB authorities sometime ago
said there would be "some am
munition" for hunting but em
phasized at that-time it would
be held to a minimum. Later, it
was said in some quarters, a
hunter would have to show that
he was eliminating pests and
thus giving the farmer a break
before he could get shells.
The Bushfleld announcement
indicated that the release of the
ammunition would be without
such strings attained, however.
No shotgun shells ve manu
factured for hunters i.;."t year.
About 3,000,000 were allocated in
special cases out of stocks on
hand to supplement those held ov
er by hunters from the 1941 sea
son. The plan was said to provide
for allocation of shells to the 48
states primarily on information
supplies by the federal fish and
wildlife service on the estimated
game population.
