BERLIN gets 1U 15th and heavi est attack from the air,, 1000 heavy' bombers dropping. 2800 tons bn it. Forty-three bombers (all to return. Since last November 18, Berlin has been heavily bombed 15 times with 28,000 tons of explosives. In these 15 raids, 467 of our' (allied) bombers have been lost an uver tigo of 31 to the raid. ' ' ' . With a crow of more, than 10 each, that runs Into quite a per sonnel .loss which, however Is Insignificant in comparison wllh the cost ol Inflicting equal loss on Berlin by a land campaign. THE Russians are steadily liqui dating the Germans caught In the Cherkasy trap. There are as yet no credible reports that the trapped Germans are sur rendering In any considerable numbers. They seem to fight un til "liquidated." Note- the similarity under the skin of the nu.i Germans and the Japs. F INLAND la reported, to be in direct negotiation with Rus- sia. Col.

General MucArthur announces that this move isolates 22,000 Japs left In the Solomons and "for all strategic purposes completes the lil-month-old campaign there." MacARTHUR then Hserts that Japan connot le defeali'd through blockade ami bombing a I ono. He adds: "We must defeat Japan's army, and for that purpose our strategy must devise ways and means to bring our GROUND forces Into contact with Japan's ground forces al decisive points." j lie concludes: "It's useless and misleading to talk of short cuts.

I for the war news, pro-German army ofllcers in Argentina have staged another coup of some sort. It seems to be a bold move by haid-bolled and determined Ger man sympathizers in Argentina 'a USING A CALLING CARD By Charles THE most pleasurable part a newspaper is the opportunity to visit with so many interesting- people. Our chief regret is that we have so little time to devote to the numerous callers at our office. Some are corporation or federal officials. Others are political figures. The majority are our neighbors, business men and farmers. Some come on business. Some drop in with a complaint. Some have criticisms. Many have news and helpful suggestions. Others just stop for a friendly chat. The flow of visitors enlivens the day and relieves the monotony of the office grind. One custom of most of our out-of-town visitors is inter esting. Invariably they .leave a business card. It always is an attractive card, well designed and neatly printed. Such a card serves to give that favorable first impression so es sential in a preliminary meeting. The card, filed away for iutiire reference so that we ing the caller's name when circumstances permit us to men tion him again, is a constant reminder of his personality. A proprietor of a new business recently established in Roseburg came into the News-Review office and spent a great;, deal of time with the printing department designing an outstanding and beautiful letterhead and envelope. We know, the firms receiving let ters written on that stationery they glance at the envelope and to the new business when they unique, attractive "jilesign..l We are mentioning our visitors, their calling cards and the matter of pleasing stationery because we desire to draw a comparison with advertising. Being in the newspaper business) we live and breathe advertising. No mntter how our advertising.patronage grows and it is increasing rap idly rifc 'iil" never be enough, because we know we have a service our business interests need and we are m-niirl nf that service.' We have, too, a selfish ing revenue increases, we can a pnysicmii well knows that jf he could get his patients to comp to him at regular intervals for physical checkups and advice he could improve their health. But his code of ethics has a foolish clause preventing him from advertising. Similarly the newspaper' knows it can help the business of its advertising patrons if they will properly use the service but our code of ethics does not prevent us from "tootintr our own horn.". . But, getting back to the matter of cards and. stationery, j too few advertisers realize the importance of keeping their I names before the public. Regular, consistent advertising' serves the same purpose as a calling card. It is a favorable i introduction and a constant reminder of the personality ofi the caller. Just as the attractive letterhead and envelope ffreate a yood impression ol' a business, so an attractive ad vertisement, neatly designed and illustrated, compels atten tion. Pew people would think of scribbling a name on a piece of soiled paper to be used as a calling card, yet many adver tisers have such advertising habits. They do not utilize to the full the facilities made available to them to create good impressions, nor do they follow a neat, orderly pattern. Instead of regular, wtll-plunivcd, consistent advancing campaigns, they use hit-and-miss methods and then com plain about lack of results. You would not expect a big industrialist to use a hntul written or improvised calling card. Yet many business Jirms are trying to introduce themselves to the public and endeavoring to create a favorable impression while using ...v.i.u.i.-, luuin.v inconsistent wmi the size, pros-j tige and form of their institutions. A good advertisement is like a good calling card. It should I ' A KlTl'l!

It Is quite obvious, how ever, that there are some good C.e.nnans in Argentina. -t-r-nf INSIGNE IIOKIZONTAL 4fl Crimson 1 Depicted is in-SO Penetrates sigiio of SI Dawn uoddess VKRTK'AI, . 1 Quintessence 2 Hnlnmp 3 Articulates 4 Metal 8 Tree fluid ti Kngineei ;ng Corps (abbr ) 7 Forlilltali.'n.s H Yamibiinds II On account (abbr.l ScoulhiR Squadron 5, V.

Melrose Woman's Kin Solves Water Problem l Mrs. Clarence Chartlcr, Mel-! rose Rt Roseburg, has received word that her brother, Sergeant Elmer C. Wickstrom, has received official commendation and a pro motion as' a result of his ingenu ity In solving the fresh water problem at a South Pacific ma rine corps base. Tiring of the dis tilled sea water for drinking pur pases, Sergeant Wickstrom ob tained permission to undertake the sinking of a well, with the provision that the work was on his own time and involved no ex pense. At a depth of 55 feet he struck fresh water. From scrap materi als he constructed a pumping plant and his Improvised outfit, which, according to a report by a marine corps combat reporter, rivals a Rube Goldberg invention, he is pumping 20.000 gallons of water a day.
