STALIN, can hardly be un familiar w'th this hfstqrlcul fact. Nor dan It be news tq him ! that thQ Pussia of today Is get '' ling very big and very powerful ' Jt has doubtless occurred to jhim frequently that the Russia ; he has had a big part In creating j Is reaching the position of power 1 whqrq she Is a possible threat to Britain's ' long-eonllnupcj domln 5 ailce of Europe. IIo may bo expecting the Brit ' ish to do what they have, done !; often enough before that Is, to j CHANGE ' ALLIES (not necos ; sarlly right now, In the hent of the. fighting, hut at some time sooner or later). He may be taking this round about way of tolling them that 'he tsnt going to stand for any i such tactics THIS TIME in the case of Poland or anybody else. THE sweetness and light that ap peared to emanate first from , Moscow when the top hired men ' of Britain, tlie United, Stales and Russia got together to talk things . ovqr, and later at Teheran, when $ the top nier) themselves got q i geljicr, havq seemed tq a ot of ? us io be too good to be rue. There has never been much .' danger that we and the Russians " won't be able to get along ami ; ably, for we DON'T WANT THE j SAME THINGS. But Britain and Russia DO want a LOT of the f same (hings. Fqr one thing, they want 1 "spheres of Influence" In F.u l rope. When you look al the niap, J you can't help wondering how . British and Russian spheres of Influence can be drawn without OVERLAPPING each other. j Every such qverlnp Is a possl ij,,.- fwiiu ui iiuiiiit:. IN Napoleon's time, when Brit ain (cared prance, she sought Germany's help prltnai-lly and Russia's secondarily. Whcn-Iirit-nln's fears ahlflcd to Germany, she sought allances with France and Russia. It could readily occur to Stalin that NOW, with Russia gelling big and unbelievably powerful, Britain's thinking might turn to ward Germany as an ally against a TOO-BIG Russia. . Qn purely historical grounds, all this wouldn't seem loo Im probable. r URKEY now holds the Dar danelles, which Russia has al- ' ways wanted. Turkey Is Hi-Hutu's f. ally. Britain has been Instruqien- 4al Ix-forc (In the Crimean war, I fur example) In preventing Russia j from getting for herseir this j strategic passage to the warm- water Mediterranean. JT isn't likely that Russia Is go to stop fighting Germany. It ERTAINLY Isn't likely that the British are going to stop fight tng Germany. ?'-'These posslbllltic. just don't HIGHWAY . By Charles V. Stanton WILLAMETTE VALLEY communities are gaining in " realization of the importance of the Pacific highway to the state of Oregon, Ralph Koozer, president of the Oregon Pacific highway association, reported here recently to the Douglas county court. The task of educating influential groups in the northern pat of the state has been a long, up hill job. President JCoofcer has; succeeded through direct action in arousing sentiment favoring improvement of the Southern Oregon highway bottlenecks. He has just com pleted a.trio in whjch he met personally with hundreds' of business men, civic leaders, county court and chamber of commerce officials and numerpus qther influential people in the northern part of the slate to tell the story of the Pacific highway and the need for general state-wide co operation in prpmoting its improvement as the No. 1 post war project. Southern Oregon counties working to eliminate excessive grades and curves which predominate front Eugene south to the stale line, They have been alone in their task tered overwhelming opposition from Willamette valley points, which, through greater political influence were able to divert money needed for the Southern Oregon highway into purely local projects. If, can be secured from the ment of the Pacific highway ing the anticipated volume portant step will Jiave been taken. Need for the earliest possible reconstruction .of Iligl- way 99 through Southern Oregon is evident in considera tion of probable postwar conditions. Planners everywhere are predicting a tremendous growth in population and industry west. The expansion is expected to center largely arpund ports which will furnish outlets for raw materials and rrmnu i'actured goods to the South Pacific, China and Russia. A system of high standard maintain the volume of exports. The Pacific highway jn it? present condition cannot possibly accommqdate the amount and character of traffic almost certain to follow the war. Unless improvement is immediate, the existing bottlenecks will seriously interfere with the probable devel opment of the entire Pacific Northwest. As this condition bpcomes more generally realized, increasing pressure will unquestionably force eventual reconstruction, but delay can be cosily. We can reasonably expect bo made, whether it be early or late. Hut we must not over look the fact that here in Douglas county improvements of the Pacific highway can have able results. We are (particularly interested in development of manu facturing industries within the county. We have an abun dance of raw materials, particularly timber. We are assur- 4 of a continuing indiistry concerned. But we need plants that will turn these raw materials into finished products. Wo peed furniture fac tories, sash and door factories, plastic factories, pulp mills and numerous other such plants the ample resources we have. dency to group these manufacturing plants and, unless we are vigilant, the plants we want here in the Umpqua valley will bo located around Portland, Tacoma and Seattle. The better the transportation facilities, the greater is the likeli hood of the manufacturing plants being located on tide- -ater. MliSS Wo would not, if we could, retard improvement ot the Pacific highway. In fact we consider it the greatest need we have here in Southern Oregon. But we must realize we have need for immediate aggressive action in drawing in dustry to Douglas county and that our task will be made more difficult as transportation facilities improve. Con sequently we must attack our problem vigorously, make sense. It Is much more likely that this mysterious Russian charge against Britain's good lallh has to do with long-range afior-the-war negotiations that must al ready be under consideration and that Stalin Is merely giving warning that THIS TIME Russia Is going to have what she wants. Advisory GOP Council To Aid Oregon Districts PORTLAND, Jan. 2-1 - (AIM -An advisory parly council was nigaiil.ed by state republican leaders here over the weekend to assist Ihe slate and county cen tral committees select candidates.

Farrell, dis trict farm security supervisor, Redmond. Largely representing family-sized and smaller arms, all 19-12 records were passed de spite increased wartime farming difficulties. "While many larger dairies de creased milk production, FSA borrowers In 1943 reported 27,300 gallons of milk as compared to 21,(100 in 1942 or a net increase of 5,700 gallons," Farrell said. Other important war food in creases Included an 8.4(H) dozen jump In egg production from 72, 000 to 80,400 last year, and a boost in pork and beef from J9,- 500 pounds In 1912 to a total of 118,400 pounds in 1943." Loan Repayment Rapid. 1 New highs In loan repayments were reached with 34 borrowers repaying their loans in full last year and many making advance payments on their obligatiohs, the report revealed. Repayments represent over 95 per cent of all maturities duo. A total of 312 borrowers In the county have been loaned $200,900, total repay ments including principal and interest, are $157,348, and 171 re paid their loans In full. Others still have from two to four years to run. "FSA homemakers added near ly S7,00() to farm Income durine the year through canning 27,330 quarts of fruits and vegetables lor Home use." said Farrell- "Value of family food produced on tne larm, including meat eggs, milk and garden produce, averaged over 5400 per family All borrowers deserve the high est praise not only for their live-at-home programs but for exceed ing their goals in important war toon production.
