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.

sider can know.)

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.
Under the circumstances, lhat

DIALfpLOG'
By SUSAN
Remember your State and' Lo
cal News will be heard tonight
at 7 o'clock. Senator Cordon
speaks again on the-7:15 spot us
ually occupied by the news. Just
be sure .to tune in by 6:30 so
you'll hear Double or Nothing
and tho news will follow imme
diately. Likewise, don't forget
"Name That Song" at 8:30 and
why don't some more of you good
people send in some names to
them? 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. Who knows, you may
turn up a winner. Pianist-arrang-f.r-bandleader
Stan Kenton .will
bo at the starter's gate with Al
Jarvls when Downbeat Derby
gets set this Saturday. Kenton,
currently Bob Crosby's orchestra
leader, is featured as pianist with
the band. Sounds like a good
deal, so be a listcnin' come 8
o'clock tomorrow night. Don't
overlook the Chicago Theatre of
the Air at 6. This week they're
doing your favorite, "Merry Wi
dow," with some 4000 R. O. T. C.
cadets as special guests. Gilbert
Russell appears with Marion
Ciaire to sing the leads this week
and the Colonel yes, he'll be
there too.

PROTEIN FEED STOCKPILES
Oregon feeders and. feed mix
ers have an opportunity now to
build stockpiles of vegetable pro
tein feeds against future short
ages when increased demands
and transportation bottlenecks
Interfere with normal movement
to the .northwest.
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. The only thing I could see we got
out of it was bootleg liquor instead of legal
liquor... plus the worst crime and corrup
tion this country has ever known.", " " ' '
