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.

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.

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."

Shanghai and evil awaits the 1

"Stars a n d Stripes Forever", j
