They huve uirondy cut the last rail line running north Into Poland and now have the Ger man eastern front broken' inlo . two separate and distinct sections , with (ho high and more or less Impassable Carpathian moun lainss lying In between. It seems probable that they Mil push on as swiftly as possible lo the Rumanian oil fields, which lie OUTSIDE the Carpathian bar rier. ON Monday our American Italy based planes bombed Budapest heavily. The same night the Hilt Ihh bombers took over and ham mered Budapest in the darkness. Tuesday morning our day-flying Fortresses and Liberators strurk hard at Bucharest, capital of Ru mania. Now that tae German line has been cut In two at the Carpath ians, the southern hall ol it will have to be supplied entirely by the Dunulm river and the rail lines that run through Hungary and northern and eastern Yugo slavia. Our planes, you see, are pound ing steadily at these vital com munication lines. At the same time, they ate smashing at Ger man war factories that have lieon moved Into friendly Hungary. M EANWH1LE Russia is taking I over the Joh of trying lo I split off Hitler's uneasy Balkan satellites. The Moscow ladio calls on the Rumanian people In "ahandon the Germans and CAPITULATE at once, warning: "Unless you do, the whole of your country will become a battlefield and your towns and villages a heap of ruins." iThe Rumanians are obviously thinking: "The same thing will happen lo us if we 1H desert the Germans they'll huteher us and lay waste our homes then.")

Fisher in the matter of connecting Second Avenue South, in Koseburjr, to the Pacific highway. To date, however, no arrangement has been made with the state highway department which would permit future widening and permanent improvement. The two councilmen recently weiit to Portland where they contacted federal agencies, charged with building access roads, and have secured promise of a survey of the Roseburg project. No commitments, no work will be undertaken until the city provides the re quired application forms, maps and supporting data. Second Avenue South is the street paralleling Deer creek. It is rapidly developing into with traffic congestion already critical and scheduled to grow increasingly more serious. One company alone is planning to put a fleet of 50 coming summer, which will route, travelling empty one west. Opening of the Young's Bay Lumber company mill will add several hundred trucks and private cars daily. All this will be new traffic and already the street is so crowded it has been necessary to impose There is every indication in the next few months to machinery sales, service and re pair agencies and other businesses connected with the mill and timber industries. Such condition naturally will add greatly to the traffic congestion. Altogether, the prospect i is for considerably more use to carry. There is opportunity, right ' which will permit the street to luture ditto. But if procrastination, red-tape, passing-the oticK, ana general neglect are picture, the taxpayers are going to suffer when necessity forces an improvement program. The federal government maintains a fund to aid in con struction of roads principally used for access to materials used in the war effort. The project for connecting Second Avenue clearly comes within the scope of the federal-aid program. Access money amounting to more than $80,000 has been spent in developing a road up Little River to per mit of removal of timber from that area. Yet the trucks hauling those loads must be funnelled into the bottleneck at the intersection with Jackson street in Roseburg, trucks must be moved over the city's business thoroughfares. Such movement of traffic already has resulted in numerous minor accidents and property destruction. The cost of the im provement would soon be paid for in saving on tires and equipment, without considering the improved traffic condi tions which would result from the proposed direct con nection. ) . t But, in the event access money is secured lo help in build ing Second Avenue through to the highway, the plan should bo made to fit into a scheme for future street widen ing. The route is a part of the North IJmpqua road system, which eventually must be a state highway. Therefore, any work now done should be correlated with plans for standard highway construction. We consider it to la; the duty of the state highway de partment to adopt and furnish, williuut further Wt, a defi nite plan for eventual improvement. With such data avail able, it would be possible for restrictions on construction ot essential widening at relatively dale. l.ul, il prompt action is I be built up to new business structures, making the cost of ".'.T'L' ,,"'"!

Understand now, the foregoing statement came to uis in publicity releases from the East, and being wild westerners ourselves we're taking it with, not a grain, but a whole spoon ful of sail.
