HF you've tried to follow this .involved explanation, your head 'is probably .going round And round by i this time and you are feeling distinctly dizzy. To us' uninformed outsiders,' It 's a lot like watching a dog fight in a dense clouU of dust. .About all wo can do Is to wait for some thing, definite to come out of the confusion.) THERE isn't -much' new in the Russian fighting as this Is ft-rltten. 1 The reds. are still deaning up up the lCrimca, :and apparently making good progross. Thny are jUso ' moving - down "the 'Lower Dniester, pushing the Germans Aut of Bessarabia. They are inch ing nearer, from the .north, to the Galatl gap, where the Germans and their stooges, tho Romanians, are evidently preparing for a last-ditch stand .before :tho PIo estl' oil fields. ' Still -farther north, at Skala, a German column has fought lis way through and RELIEVED .temporarily, at least) the 15 Gorman divisions that were trap ped there. We must remember that this .general Skala area is One of the defenses of the small Galtcian oil fields that lios just north of the Carpathians. r- The Germans are fighting des jiorutely (and skilfully) for every foot of ground that contains a drop of oil. . , . IN the air war over Germany Tuesday, we (Americans) lost 64 borribcrs and 16 fighters. Losses such ns that sober us. But we shot down in that one day 126 Germon planes and wrecked 58 more on the ground. '. In four days, the dispatches 'lull us, AMERICAN, planes shot flown 352 German planes in ad dition to mony destroyed on the ground. Our own losses In' these four days aren't clearly stated. This rate of destruction, we are lold, Is GREATER than the Ger man factories can replace. When the German air power Is broken, and we have COMMAND of the nil- all over Europe, we'll move in for the kill. There seems to be little doubt of that. ' (When that will be, no out sider can know.) L announces that as soon as the allied armies enter Rome he'll ABDICATE in favor of : his .4011 Umberto. Ills decision follows an allied conference that has been going on for a couple of days In lioulhern llaly. The poker seems to ta gelling too hot for Victor Emanuel to Jiold. IN tho Nebraska, primary, Stas sen came out well on top In the voting. Wlllkle, whose name was on the ballot because there hadn't been time to remove II after Willkiu's retirement, seems lo have got about one vole for each 9 east for Stassen. ' Dewey, who wan't 011 the ballot UNESSENTIAL TRAVEL By Charles THE tragic stage wreck Wednesday near Azalea, resulting in two deaths and a number of injuries, brings into the spotlight once again the travel. We are not intimating- that any passenger on the ill-fated bus was travelling all were on essential trips, but it is no secret that the trans portation services of this country today are crowded by people who have no .imperative need for the journeys they are making, but, lacking facilities for private, transporta tion, having money to spend, and wanting to go some place, are occupying space needed by those who must utilize the accommodations for strictly essential purposes, or are crowding out service men and women on leaves and fur loughs. Because of the demands made by an uncooperative minor ity of the general public, the railroads, the bus lines and all other transportation services are forced to call into ser vice obsolete equipment, utilizing every resource of man power and rolling stock available. Wednesday's wreck does mot indicate any mechanical failure, although' the bus was of an old style which, had travel been normal, would have been utilized only in re serve capacity. We are not attempting to occasioned by faulty equipment, or any failure or neclizence on the part of the driver. It been only one vehicle on the ine point we are trying number of people who travel, be the percentage of accidents. The cause of the accident is not for us to say, hut many tragedies have occurred throughout the country because transportation companies have had to utilize outmoded machines and because their ser vices have been overcrowded and rushed. Repair ana main tenance departments have not been able to maintain normal standards. Overworked railroad companies are rolling an engine, into one terminal, turning it around and starting back oyer the route, without an opportunity for thorough inspection. All of this would be unnecessary if the niihlie nvould heed the repeated warnings to eliminate unnecessary travel. In addition to increasing hazards, plousure travellers are depriving service men and women of accommodations. An irate mother was in our office earlier this week. Her son, who had travelled across the continent on a furlough, which gave him only a few days at home before he went overseas, had to stand in a bus for more than 75 miles. uuouuas u an unessential riders had been removed, there would have been ample seating for the tired soldier. Another soldier of our acquaintance, making an emer gency trip, was unable to secure a berth at any time while travelling 3,000 miles by train. Transportation companies, the federal government and tho military services are urging people not to travel if the trypan be1 avoided. We know it-is not pleasant to stay .at home all the time; that a great deal of enjoyment is to be secured in visiting friends and places. But in view of the demands being placed upon our transportation facilities by wartime conditions, it is imperative that we hoed the re quest for cooperation if we are to promote travel safety and give our service men and women the break to which they are entitled. . And while we aro commenting upon the plea to stay at home, and the fact that the OPA limits our gasoline so we can t drive the old family jalopy, we still have the comfort ing thought that with all their restrictions they can't keei) our minds from wandering. at all and who insists he isn't a candidate, is getting nearly half as many votes WRITTEN IN us were cast for Stassen.

We might as well have a little slice of tho California mon ey up hero to put into stamps and bonds. All you have to do is send in song titles, in groups of three, to us here at KRNR and we'll send them on in. And speaking of song titles, that leads us right into tho subject of ballots on Downbeat Derby. That's the swell show you hear on Saturday night between 8 and 8 o'clock. You don't have to get official bal lots any more just make your choice lor the "greatest record of all time" and mail it direct to Al Jarvls at KHJ, Hollywood 38, California.

"No, I just enjoy reading di detent papers bo my nephew George sends lliem to nic whenever he takes a business trip. 1 got a big kick out of some he sent me from several counties where they still hate prohibition.

N. E. Dodd, national chief of Triple A, advised the state feed advisory committee to urge ev ery commercial feed mixer in the state to build up a 60-day inven tory of oilseed meals as soon as possible. Farmers and feeders should be urged to buy next winter's sup ply of protein feeds. There are no quota restrictions on pur chases of vegetable proteins by a farmer for subsequent mixing with grains provided by the farmer. BINDER TWINE PRICES The 1944 victory binder twine made from a combination of agave and jute fibers will cost no more than the 1943 twine. OPA has announced Esiat the 1943 ceilings will apply to 1944 twine. WAR UNIT PLAN DROPPED Selective service officials have announced that the system of placing farm workers in deferred classification on the basis of num ber of farm wan. units had been abandoned. Hereafter, local boards will use the Tydings amendment of the Selective Sei vice act for determining agricul tural deferments. Tho Tydings amendment di rects local boards to defer any registrant found to be necessary to and regularly engaged in "ag ricultural occupation or endeav or" essential lo the war effort, until replacement can be found. Final decision on granting any deferment is the responsibility of the local board. Cooperation between county USDA boards and local selec tive service boards will continue in the matter of deferring farm workers, It was announced. Any changes in present county war board-local board relationsihps will await issuance of new in structions from the national level. County agents will continue to collect information concerning ac tivities of individual registrants for the war boards. ' "'.' , EGG BUYING RULES -EAsWb ' With lack of storage space blamed for much of the recent slump in egg prices, WFA is urg ing greater consumption of eggs by U. S. civilians and at the same time attempting to speed up its own purchases. Prices re ceived by farmers have dipped to below 20 cents a dozen in some areas. Government buying is expect ed to be speeded up by (1) per mltling the loading of three grades instead of one in a car, providing there are 100 cases of such grade; (2) accepting offers daily Instead of weekly; and (3) permitting cars to be loaded with both fiber and wood cases. Egg production this year is the larg est on record exceeding pre-war levels by 80 per cent. "Bootleggers must post Ceiling Prices', ' Federal Agents seize'Trick' Liquor Truck'. Doesn't that go to prove, Joe. that prohibi tion does not prohibit? "I watched conditions pretty carefully' during our 13 years of prohibition in this country.
