TODAY IS By Charlai V. Stanton A NOTICEABLE change in civilian spirit is plainly evi dent following' the announcement of D-day. This is only natural. Nerves have been edgy and jumpy. People have been living in dread and anxiety. Our concern is not les sened by. the fact that invasion is actually under way, nor ia our anxiety for the safety of loved ones diminished. Rather, .our apprehension is increased, for we know that ,idVere' losses must:be suffered.; But, at least, Invasion ac tually il "ih progress. We have known it must come and, while' awaiting the day, we have been restive. The jriiost difficult part of having a tooth pulled is the time" spent in the waiting room. Every football player knows the extreme tension just before the kick-off. So have we awaited the invasion with ious to start and complete the Now a mighty allied force the continent. Soon American boys will be treading soil made sacred by the blood of their fathers. Chateau Thierry, Compiegne, Soissons and Verdun, names hallowed in the memory of those who fought the same enemy more than a quarter of a .century ago, lie only a comparatively few miles away. Some American dler fathers, who fell in France, possibly will be privileged to kneel at crosses marking over which once again allied lessly pursue nazi, hordes. Fields, which must still bear ground again under the destructive heel of the war god. But this time the German, nation , is not escaping defacement for, though she attempted tress walls and. force the fighting outside her own boun daries, the allies have ripped away the roof to carry doso lation.andjiavoc to the heart of the reich. The next few days will be fraught with anxious moments. Each word from the combat ssone will echo around the world. We will hear many contradictory and frightening reports. The enemy will tell of terrific losses to attacking forces. Already we have been told that paratroops have been "an nihilated." But we must not forget that it was "annihilat ed" Russian armies which drove the Hun back to his lair, to lick his wounds, after one of the most brilliant military campaigns the world has ever known. So, though we fear for the safety of our loved ones in the struggle that lies ahead, we face the inevitable with a spirit of confidence in the strength of our arms, knowing that victory is sure, eVen though temporary reverses may be met. The invasion is on across the seas. Here in Douglas comity we have our V-day. . Today starts the Fifth War Loan campaign. The effort is on to meet the high goals set for our cooperation. We cannot fire the guns, but we can furnish bullets. Wo cajjnofcflytlv planes, but we can jnyest money yrth which to""bit1l3 thorn, We cannot drop bombs upon enemy tar gets, but we can supply bombs to those whoso hands are more capable than ours. Our boys across the seas faced D-day with every con fidence in their ability to win. Many are giving their lives. We are asked only to invest our dollars investing In secu rities which will save ua from ruinous inflation and pre serving for the coming days a reserve which will assure buying power to furnish jobs for those who come home from their bloody task.

Sgm Premium Wage Plans Follow Apprenticeship SEATTLE, June 6 (AP) The regional War Labor board, acting on a national board directive, to ,day announced a premium pay ,plan for journeyman machinists and molders in western Washing ton and western Oregon who have completed four years' appren ticeship. It also reaffirmed Its wage sta bilization rate of $1.20 an hour for all journeymen metal trade workers who do not fulfill the four years apprenticeship and 30 days service with an individual employer. This results In a premium pay rate of 51-25 for properly quail, fied journeymen the rate award ed machinists in the Portland area by the national board a year ago last February. At the same time, the regional board, awarded a rate of $1.06 for machinists' specialists, which is a 6-cent increase and awarded a 2-cent increase to helpers after 60 days' service. Tool and Die makers were awarded a 5-cent increase to $1,045 an hour against the union request of $1.53. All increases are effective as of June 1, this year, except the In crease to machinists' helpers which is retroactive to last Jan uary 5. Wage increases were denied to saw and knife workers and wire rope employes, on the basis of an insufficient showing. The board directed that rates for leadmen continue to be es tablished by prevailing practice within individual establishments. In the molders' case, the board also awarded a rate of $1,125 to experienced burners, a 12-cents. an-hour premium over inexpert enced burners. "This does not open the door for a general wage increase in this area," said Dr. George B. Noble, regional board chairman. "The premium pay plan aoDlles only to a specially skilled grouD oi empoyes.

Washington Hews From an Inside View ' Argument, Sentiment, Comment By HARRIS ELLSWORTH Congressman, Fourth Oregon District WASHINGTON, D. C, June 3 If and when Rear Admiral Hus band E. Kimmel and Major Gen eral Walter C. Short are tried under court-martial proceedings on charges of dereliction of duty in connection with the attack on Pearl Harbor, it Is rather more ti:an likely that some startling revelations will be made. The two officers who commanded our forces In Pearl Harbor at the time of the attack will surely preso.it facts at such a trial to prove they were not at fault and were rot unfaithful to their duty. In thtt event, someone elsa will probably be indicated by their evidence as having be-;,i at fault. If Kimmel and Short made rt.lg error, they should be lound guilty and pun ished accordingly. If they were Kirnply iollowing orders from higher up those higher up per sons should at least be compelled to snare r.ie blame. Court-martial proceedings must be institued within a stated time. Last December, the congress ex tended this limitation six months to June 7th this year. Now the matter Is before us again. Both the house and senate judiciary commltteces have reported reso lutions extending the time for one year. The question now is wheth er the resolution will be amended to compel a court-martial, or passed as reported by committee. Meanwhile the two accused offi cers have waived the time limita tion. In support of the contention that this trial must be dclaved until me war is over, it Is argueu tnat facts brought out might hurt our war eu-jrt, nn,:Mt give aid and comfort to the enemy. On the other hand, key witnesses may die or be killed in action if the trial is too long delayed, thus making it impossible for the ac. cused officers to clear their names. Then also, whether we like it or not, there is the political angle of the problem. Anti-administration forces believe that evidence presented by Kimmel and Short will be damaging to fourth term aspirations. They may be right. On the other hand, if the New Dealers insist upon delaying the trial, they find themselves in the position of addine fuel to the flame of suspicion that is already burning brightly. It is political dynamite any way you look at It. The extension of the price con- trol act of 1942 (OPA) is the next Important as well as the next controversial piece of legislation to be taken up by congress. Tues day the senate banking and cur ments. The house committee com. ! Pleted con.'.dorallon and tcported its bill, H. R. 4841. late Friday. There never has been any seri ous consideration of the idea of abolishing the OPA price con trol. Nearly everyone recognizes the wartime need for such con trol. What the republicans (and a substantial number of democrats) have been endeavoring to do Is refine and improve tho act so as to eliminate some of the more flagrant mistakes and adminis trative abuses of the law. The amendments reported out by tho senate committee, in addi tion to changing the date of cxpl ration of the law to December 31, 1945, include the following: pro hibits payment of any subsidies "unless the money required for such subsidies, or sale at a loss, has been approved by congress for such purpose"; authorizing Individuals to petition (or relief; authorizing Administrator ' to purchase commodties to use as evidence for violations of price, irent, or rationing regulations; fortified the Administrator with enforcement authorization; speci fies a protest procedure, and gives the emergency court of appeals jurisdiction in violation proceed ings to enjoin or set aside regu lations, orders, or price schedules complained of. or dismiss com plaint; defines suit for da ma cos: amends section on review of ra tiomng suspension orders; and proposes to establisn an "escula- tor clause" for cotton products nu increase tno cost to consum. crs for clothing. ine report covers 115 pases. over a nunrca 01 Which nrn dr. votea to a supplemental statement prepared by the OPA. which Son. ator Taft defined as "nothing but p(U"igtinn;H lor UirA. ' The house committee amended the bill changing Ihn fivni .-a firm date to June 30, 1015, and among other amendments aro the follow. ing: profits cannot bo flxort where such aellon has no relation io price control; individual ad justments in routs may be made where, due to peculiar circunv staces, they are substantially higher or lower than rents gen erally prevailing; subsidies In effect as of date of enactment may he confined, but no additional subsidies paid except on authoriz ation by congress; authority to restrict use of trade and brand Jnames or require grade labelling I ls denied; unusual costs in pro duction and short crop yields are to be considered in adjustment of maximum prices 'on fresh fruits and vegetables; specifies protest procedure; emergency court of appeals jurisdiction similar to senate bill provides for a sub committee of both house and sen ate banking and currency com mittees to meet at all times to consider administration of the act with power to subpoena' wit nesses, compel production of books, papers and documents and take testimony anywhere In the United States. The house and senate will be gin consideration of the respect ive bills very shortly since the legislation must be disposed of prior to the congressional recess less than three weeks distant. DIAljpiOG BY SUSAN No need tonight to tell you to listen in, because we know you're just like all of us down here you don't want to get out of car shot of the radio. Sitting around today listening for news flashes, we haven't been doing any work worth mentioning. We were re minded -of the last war and those tense days when the Kaiser's ar mies were moving on Paris. How many of you who went to school here remember the hourly bulle tins that were brought to the school by Mr. Bates of the News? That was a war 25 years ago, and today we sit at home and listen to reports twenty-four hours a day as they come in. No doubt you've already been listening to the American Legion staffing the station today. They will be on all evening too, so keep on lis tening, and above all, keep buy ing those bonds. Thursday's pro gram will depend entirely on the developments in the invasion zone, but this much we'll promise you just as soon as any news is released you'll be hearing it on 1490. So keep tuned to KRNR from 6:45 in the morning until we sign oft at night and that will depend entirely on the news developments. We'll be with you whenever there's anything of vi tal interest.
