Medford won Fri day night's game 33 to 30 In an overtime period.

Medford started the scoring and stayed out In front for the first quarter, after Roseburg had tied twice at 2-nll and 4-all. The visitors had a lfMo-6 lead going Into the second period, hut the Indians tied the game at 14-14 and pulled ahead 19 to 15 at half time. The third period saw a strong Medford rally In which the score was tied at 21-21, as the game went Into the final quar ter. After another tie at 23-all, Roseburg went out In front and rapidly pulled away to a well- earned victory, coasting through Ihe last few minutes of play, The Indians found early in the game that they could not pene trate the shifting zone defense cleverly maintained by Medford. Cummlngs and Loomis started lung range shooting, and It quick ly developed that Loomis was "hot", lie was maneuvered Into postlon while his teammates fed him the ball which he plunked through the basket lime and again from outside the front wall of the defense. Nordwlck, fast-breaking for ward for the Medford team, was high scorer for the visitors with 10 points.

Husky Basketeers Tie Loop Record For Straight Wins I By the Associated Press 1 The undefeated University of Washington Huskies ran their season's string of conference bas ketball victories to eight straight Saturday night defeating the Oregon State Heavers 5ti to 2!) and at the same time equalled the northern division record of con secutive victories. The Saturday night win gave Washington 14 straight confer ence games, a record which has been good dure It was set by the IudM fnlr Except Nw-l.tvln Co SELLING DEMOCRACY By Charles IT a time when we are trying to impress the -world with " the superiority of democracy over rival ideologies in gov ernment, the political chicanery in our national capital i particularly untimely. Our men are fighting and dying on the battlefields for the purpose of destroying totalitarian governments.1 !Ve are extolling the virtues of freedom un der a democratic form of political control, but if we place ourselves in the state of mind of a European groping for knowledge concerning governmental forms to replace the wrecks to be left after the hibit now being offered at Washington, we would select any thing like the U. S. pattern. When we see an administration and a congress, which should be pulling together as solidarity to bring the war to sion, trying to outtrick one game, we can look upon the Tnke, as an example, the tating the people of the country. The president would have us is standing alone, defying congress, to give the service men an opportunity to vote. The administration propagandists are out with the smear buckets to paint congress in the most lurid of colors. The president's "stand up and be counted" challenge was a particularly clever political arti fice; it slumped terrifically when congress took the dare. The propagandists would lot, advocated by the administration, is the one and only system which would permit the soldier to vote, nnd that failure by congress to adopt a refusal to the soldier of the What they are not telling is a ballot, that it is only a slip candidates on which he can president, vice-president, senator and representative: that it is in violation of the constitution, in violation of state rights, and deprives the soldier of the right to vote upon all except federal officers. Yet 34 states are electing gover nors, for whom soldiers would plan. We would be led to believe accept the federal ballot plan administration that congress vote. We doubt if a single congressman is opposed to placing ballots in the hands of service men. But congress has gone to the opposite extreme. The poll lax issue is injected into the controversy. The "states' rights" exponents are, in some cases making themselves ridiculous with the demands that the ballot to. the soldier must include every candidate down to dog-catcher. , Instead of the president .and a sincero and honest effort to work out a logical plan which would meet constitutional requirements, both are going to extremes, permitting political maneuvering and strategem to outweigh the paramount issue. The administration and congress are playing political ping-pong with tax legislation, labor control, wage adjust ment and subsidies. Instead of conducting the game with a semblance of teamwork and playing to the gallery, while our war effort abroad and at home suffers from lack of constructive statesmanship and coordinated effort devoted exclusively to the one purpose in which we should all be united.

CREOMULSION forCcuchj.Chejl Colds, Brenchiti DIALfpLOG LETTERS to the Editor COMMENDS EDITORIAL ON SUSTAINED TIMBER YIELD Editor News-Review: ; Permit me to compliment you for again "ringing the bell" in your editorial of December 16, 1943, "A Timely Warning". Your comments on the opportunity and the need for maintaining a per petual timber crop In Douglas county are timely and well stat ed. After mills have been Installed with a normal capacity In excess of the sustained yield cutting budget, some of the mills, and in extreme cases all of them, will be shut down sooner or later due to the lack of timber. This is In evitable when forest depletion exceeds usuable growth In the area upon which the mills are dependent lor their stumpage. Unnecessary waste, Inadequate provisions for reforestation and loss of mature timber and young growth by fire 'or Insects and disease) often widen the cap be tween depletion and usable growth, but excess cutting con stitutes the main obstacle to the maintenance of what you have called, very aptly, a perpetual timber crop. The Annual Report ot the Chief of the Forest Service ad vocates measures which will aid In the rehabilitation of forest lands which have suffered from lack of sound management well as enable communities, such as in Douglas county, to obtain the maximum long-time bene fits from virtually untouched re sources of merchantable timber. The nation, as a whole, needs a forest program to correct past mistakes. However, as your edi torial points out, Douglas coun ty requires only preventative measures instead of curative. I hope that in your editorials you will continue to point out the urgent need for action to insure that the forests of Douglas coun ty will sustain a permanent for est industry. WOULD DROP BOMBS ON VOLCANOES IN JAPAN EDITOR NEWS-REVIEW: I read with horror the way our people were treated by the Japa nese at Bataan and Corregidor, as reported by the United States government. And when I think there are people In America who would willingly allow the Japa nose to reestablish their home here, It makes my blond boll. After Jimmie Doolittle made his successful bombing raid on Japajv I wrote the War depart ment at Washington, D. C, stat ing that if a few heavy bombs were dropped on the volcanoes in Japan, the war would soon end. In June, 1943, Sheila Carter stated in a news broadcast over the radio that some one had writ ten that suggestion, but the war I department did not think it ad visable. She said God made all things tor some use and that would be a good use to put those volcanoes to killing Japs. God made those volcanoes to kill Japs and used them very suc cessfully many times, mostly in periods of ten years, but eleven years have now rolled around and God has left the job for the Americans and their allies. I say, let us all bombard the War department with letters or telegrams to bomb Japan's vol canoes and get that hot lava flowing and this terrible war will end and save the lives of our boys. The Japanese arc more afraid of the volcanoes in Japan than they are of all the guns and bombs we can manufacture. It is an enemy they cannot fight.
