DUR Interest In this new de velopment In the Burma fight ing lies in the fact that If the Japs SHOULD take Imphal unrt drive on from there to cut our only supply route Into Cninu It might result in knocking the Chinese out of the war. That Is why we are so concern ed about It. MOSCOW dispatches relate that a red army Is striking south from Tarnopol in Its "white-hot hour of victory" In a FULL SCALE smash to throw the Ger mans back through Czcrnowltx (Ccrnnuti, perhaps, on your map) to the Carpathian barrier. This army has advanced 62 miles In' four days which is real go ing. Unless checked very soon, tills lussinn army- striking swlttly down from the north will, effect a Junction somewhere in the neighborhood of Czernowlt. (Ccr nautl) ' with another Russian army coming In from the east and the combined red forces will then presumably strike south ward along the base ot the Car pathians Into the heart of Ru mania. It is at least Interesting, and probably significant, that the Rumanian oil fields at Plocsti arc on the EXPOSED side of the Car pathian mountain barrier. IT is easy to sense in the dis patches the heightening tension in England. Churchill visits the American armies gathering and training there for the greatest military adventure of all time -the proposed invasion of Europe across the channel. The cores pondents note that when he ad dresses these troops his voice vibrates with emotion. . When this mighty venture will lie launched Isn't known lo us. Its oxuet hour may not be known even to our high command, for obviously we shall attempt to strike at the moment that is MOST FAVORAULK TO US. It is reasonable to assume (hat the most favorable time for us to attack In the west will be; ,.-,.,,,, fl)1. i.w when the Russians have the Or i Andrew Cooper, who di.-d at Mcr mdns so fully engaged In the east ' -v hospital Sunday, will lie held that Hitler w ill be unable to In the ( hi Minn church, Oakland, spare ANY additional forces to Wednesday at 2 p. m Itev. Wil nppose our landings on his west -.Ham .1 IHelim officiating. Inter crn coast. It Isn't hard lo understand why the tension rises In England as the Russians swing Increasingly Into action on the eastern front (W IE can't assume, of course. that the time Is HERE NOW. We outsiders don't know when the all-out Russian assault will come. Wc don't know the sie of the forcea they have as heinbled for II. Their present drive into Rumania, however powerful it may seem to us from our reading of I lie dispatches, may lie only n preliminary skir mish when compared with the REAL THING. We can only read nnd guess.) THE air war in wesleru Ger many rises steadily in fury. The British strike with a thou j PARALYSIS FUND NEEDS AID By Charles V. Stantoc DESPITE contributions amounting to almost twice as much as in previous years, the Douglas County Infantile Paraly sis fund probably will need assistance from the National Foundation before the end of the year, Mrs. Iris Helliwell, county chairman, reports. Subscriptions, from the March of Dimes campaign to talled $2,346.07. The county is required to share receipts with the National Foundation, leaving $1,173.03 in the local treasury representing receipts from the drive. Contribu tions were made from all sections of the county, with the percentage being much larger outside of Roseburg than within the city. In addition to the money received from voluntary contri butions by Douglas county residents, the committee was allotted $449.30 from the March of Dimes conducted by the motion picture theaters in a nation-wide campaign. A re serve fund of $592, which had been invested in bonds has been cashed, making total receipts of $2,214.38. The board has authorized payment of bills amounting to $.883.75, covering the cost of relief given recently to victims of the infantile paralysis epidemic, and has contracted fur ther care for patients, obligating the fund to monthly pay ments in excess of $100. With approximately $1,300 re maining after payment of the existing indebtedness, the balance will barely meet the $100 monthly requirements to which the board is committed. It is anticipated further calls will be made upon the fund, particularly in view of the fact that health authorities are predicting another epidemic, while some of the victims of the recent attack by the disease may need aid in securing appliances or treatment. During and since the recent epidemic, the committee has financed the services of specialists, has paid for operatives to conduct massage and exercise on regular schedule and has taken other steps to aid those suffering any degree of paralysis. Assistance was given patients tit Koedsport, Drain and Curtin. Two will require continued care for many months. It may be seen from the report given by the chairman that there is little prospect of a surplus to meet any emer gencies which may arise. The county is privileged to call upon the National Foundation for aid, if necessary, but the research work being carried on nationally is of vital impor tance and needs money earmarked for that purpose. It is through research now in progress that infantile paralysis will eventually be listed with the epidemic diseases con quered by medical science. We are giving you this report in an effort to aid the county committee in building up its reserve fund to the point where fit will have a few hundred dollars to meet a possible emer gency. Wo believe there are individuals and organizations in Douglas county, who would like to help in adding to this fund. Simply because the annual drive has been completed is no reason why contributions should cease. The commit tee will welcome contributions at any time. Clubs desir ing to stage benefits, or individuals wishing to help relieve the suffering of infantile paralysis victims could aid ma terially by sending in contributions throughout the year. Communications should bo addressed to Mrs. Iris Helliwell, chairman infantile paralysis committee, Hoseburg. sand night bombers at l.i-rlln, and meet terrific German night fighter opposition. The British admit (lie loss of 73 PLANES, and the Germans claim to have shot down 102 UOMBEKS. At the same time, the Germans are able to spare enough bombers for their heaviest attack in a year on England. T IE battle of Cassino -the Ger man version of Verdun and Stalingrad combined - swings back and forth. Recent dispatches report German gains in the bloodily fought for village. They are said to have Increased lo four the -number of tanks they have I in the battered Continental hotel, one of the key points of their de fense.

J McCarran Warns NLRB Congress Won't be Driven WASHINGTON, Mar. 28 AP) The National Labor Relations board had a warning today that congress would not be "kicked around" and that an order against "membership raids" by unions will not be lifted. Voiced by Senator McCarran (D.-Ncv.) the warning was made public as the senate began con sideration of a $531,000,000 defi ciency appropriations bill, which included $367,000 for overtime pay for NLRB employees. McCarran said he had heard the NLRB was advocating lifting a prohibition under which it is prevented from holding employee elections in plants where union contracts have been In existence as long as three months. Snonsor- I eti by the AFL, the provision was aimed at preventing the CIO from continuing its efforts to or ganize yorkers in shipyards where the AFL metals trades de partment had contracts. "1 am rather inclined lo think your board Is a kind of agency which feels that congress is something to be kicked around," McCarran told NLRB member Gerald D. Rcilly during hearings on the bill. "But you are going to find out that you arc mistaken in that."

J CARti!?lr 19 - GIVE TO DIALgpLOG By SUSAN Warden Duffy explains what is being done to rehabilitate the "zoot-suiters" sent to the institu tion, when he speaks tonight at 7.30 on the Sari Quentin show. The Glee club sings "Say a Pray or for the Bovs Over There", and the orchestra gives forth with a j boogie-woogie edition of "Irish ! Washerwoman" and, of course, there's Johnny Trudrung and Eu- j gene Lee with vocals. Sinfoniet-1 ta, at 8.30, has a new guest con- j elector.

Wednesday night at 6:30 is First Nighter. This week's play sounds better than usual, al though they are all good. This ' time it's a story of prewar Shanghai and evil awaits the 1 unlucky one who strikes the j mystic gong three times. The j story "Tire Chinese Gong", with j Barbara Luddy in the feminine 1 lead as usual. One other spot for ' Wednesday to call especially to your attention Recital Hall of I the Air, which will be heard at 8 on Wednesday, and that's to be j their permanent spot.

It's our very favorite and we wish more people knew it.) That's all for today. Lumber properly treated with chromatcd zinc chloride has a combustibility closer lo asbestos tiian to ordinary wood.
