UP to the Moscow conference, the Russians persistently pooh poohed our war In the air and loudly demanded a land Iront in the west. Whatever the agree ments reached at Moscow and Teheran may have called for in the way of performance fromus, Ihey seem to have satisfied Sta lin. Allll (office of war informa Will tion) undertakes to scare us out of what It regards as dan gerous optimism regarding the progress of the war. In a statement issued in Wash ington, It tells us that Germany and Japan can take a lot of heavy punishment before collaps ing; that Germany has vast mass es of slavo lahor, plenty of steel, more than enough coal and enough oil for her needs; that Japan has enough war supplies stockpiled to last her three years. Winning the war, Its statement concludes ominously, will be no cinch. ON the other side of the story, Dr. T. F. Tsiang, director of political affairs in the , Chinese cabinet, says in Portland that Ja pan will not fight to the bitter end, adding that her strength is "brittle," and she will seek peace after her first great defeat. ' . , He predicts: -"The American and British fleets will smash the Japanese fleet, the Burma road will be opened, Japanese shipping and cities will be Attacked and the Japanese blockade (of China) will be broken. Then the end will come quickly." THIS writer's advice (as Usual) Is to BELIEVE NOBODY'S predictions us to when the war will end, put two and two togeth er, draw your own conclusions and above all else hope,for best and PREPARE FOR THE WORST. ,, BY way of Interesting non-fighting war news, we learn from the dispatches that (he American air transport line from India is now freighting as much war ma terial to China as passed over the Burma road at its peak. That refers to VOLUME. Cost Is another matter. Preston G rover. Associated Press corresnondent who sends the story, says that each gallon of gasoline delivered by air costs at least TWENTY DOLLARS. THREE plane loads of fuel, he says, must be carried over the hump to put one heavy bomber In the air in China for one mis sion against the Japa, For every gallon of gasoline delivered, the transmrt plane carrying it uses MORE than a gallon. That's transport under Im mense difficulties, but we've GET TING AWAY WI TH IT. YAGt'E rumors of trouble in Bulgaria seep tlmmgh the cen sorship. , The Bulgarians would obvious ly like to get out from under the German thumb, but the Germans won't let them. (German control of Bulgaria is reported to u mount THE FOURTH .EDITORIAL. By Charles V. Stanton pttEPARATIONS are being made to open the Fourth War " Loan campaign. The drive will start in Douglas county January 12. War bonds now being purchased, however, will be credited in the quota assigned to the county. It is going to take a great deal of -work to reach the goal, particularly in view of a $28,000 boost in the amount of bonds to be purchased by individuals. Individuals in Doug las county are asked to buy $549,100 worth of E bonds. That is only $9,000 more than we bought during the Third War Loan campaign, so tne goal is will take cooperation on the part of every resident, A strong central committee has been formed, but the work cannot be left to these few men and women: If we are to meet our goal, every resident must put forth a special effort. If every available dollar is channeled into the-Fourth War Loan drive, we will have little difficulty in hitting the target. There is good reason to insist that every idle dollar be invested in financing the war. expected to be the most stirring in our national history. Our fighting men are preparing for a bloody assault upon the European continent. The loss of life doubtless will be severe. The expenditure of munitions nnagi nation. The cost of invasion will amount to millions of dollars per minute. We fighting men are paying with asked only to invest our dollars. Our enemies fear our Fourth ing propaganda intended to discourage investors. They are telling that the cost of selling facts are that the out-of-pocket only one-thirty-third of one per cent. This unusually low cost of selling bonds is in contrast with two per cent in the sale of similar war bonds by allied nations. Our enemies also are circulating rumors that war bonds are being cashed in at a very great pace. . ' The truth is, however, that the bonds being turned 'in are less than had bcefi 'anticipated. ' Out of every 100 bonds, Series E, F and G, sold since war bonds were first introduced,' 94 are still in the hands of the! original purchasers. ', Even the most liquid issue, Series E, has a record of 91.5 per cent still owned by original buyers. ! From total sales of, more than $27 billion, redemptions amount to 6.4 per cent, a figure which would indicate that the bonds are being cashed only for' legitimate, emergency purposes. t f The Fourth War Loan affords us the opportunity to short en the war by showing our enemies that despite our petty quarrels at home we are still solidly determined that crush ing defeat shnll be the punishment meted out to the oppon ents of freedom. ' Every war bond is a bullet striking enemy morale. They i realize their cause is hopeless. They see certain defeat star- j ing them in the face.' They are striving frantically to dis unite the United Nations, to stir up distrust, to create fric tion, with the faint hope that they may thus be able to negotiate a peace and escape with some fraction of their ill gfiUen gains. - An oversubscription of the Four War Lolui will prove very discouraging to the axis powers and will speed the day of their eventual surrender. Every day the war is shortened means the saving of American lives. Our dollars invested in war bonds can serve to bring back many of our boys who might otherwise be lost. practically ro military occupa tion.) . It Is rather probable that as the Bulgarians look toward Italy, which tiled to get out from under the German thumb and over onto our side, but seems to have fail ed, their ardor for , revolting against the na.ls cools. OUT of got SI our landing in Italy, we tivmely useful airfields. What the Italians got out of it doesn't yet appear, as the censorship on all Italian affairs has closed down lightly. One guesses that the results of our Italian venture so far haven't been such as to encour age oilier countries now In the grip of Germany to try to revolt. XCEPT In Russia, the war in Europe seems to be moving very slowly Indeed. But don't get Impatient. I- we moved TOO' SOON, without adequate preparation, the consequences could be ghastly beyond description. LETTERS to the Editor PREVALENCE OF WEEDS.
