IN the Sunday battle (when the Japs tried another Pearl Har bor, sneak) we shot down 353 enemy ..planes jvith a, loss of 21 of ours. In the Monday evening battle (wherj we struck back) we lost 49 planes and shot down only 15 or 20 defending Japti. . . , ' , This ,1s the reason for the dif ference: In the Monday evening battle, there weren't many Jap pianos LEFT TO SHOOT DOWN. All our planes had to' do was to dodge anti-aircraft fire and' SINK JAP SHIPS. Our air, losses were relatively iieavy because night was coming on, many of our planes were oat of fuel or couldn't find their wey back to their carriers, in the dark and so' had to come down on the Water and take to their rafts. (Many Of them have since been rescued and others probably will be.) HEME are some revealing sta tistics: ' . The larcgst Jap carrier identifi ed in the battle Is listed by Jane's Fighting Ships as carrying 60 .planes. There are supposed to have been five or six Jap carriers in their task force including SMALLER ones. On Sunday we SHOT DOWN 353 JAP PLANES. That is to say, we must have shot down the bulk ot the planes the Japs sent out. h" IERE on the safe home front, we are inclined to be disap pointed because the Japs ran in stead of fighting It out In a last and decisive stand. If, we could have caught their whole fleet and smashed It, the end of the war would be at least In sight. They didn't 6tand and fight to the death. BUT, by running, they admitted that they are too weak to tackle us. By running, they left us free to take possession of Salpan and tndld thereon air bases from which we can batter Japan (with our Super-Fortresses) as we have been battering Germany. fpXTREME caution in the la handling of the news indi cates that the battle may not be over yet. The Japs MIGHT strike again, in greater force. But we certainly won the fii-st round de cisively.) AT Cherbourg, we're launching a final all-out attack, preceded by a cloud of bombers and a mighty artillery barrage, on Ihe Germans left In the inner city. They're apparently prepared to d'e fighting to gain as much time as they can. As this is writ ten, our Infantiymen are moving In behind the barrage to finish off the bloody Job, THE Russians, with Vilpuri in their hands and Helsinki straight ahead and being evacu ated, launch TWO new assaults iar to the north of the present lighting their apparent purpose . . Nawa-Havlew Conttny, ajaaar POLITICAL By Charles POLITICS will vie in interest conventions of the major Chicago during: the next few beat, mud will fly, the smear tents and, all-in-all, the American public will be treated to a political exhibition such as could occur -wly in the United States. The late Irvin Cobb once said, in effect, that arguments are won by the man who can yell the loudest, and it seems we apply much the same philosophy to our elections. We speak of political parties by names republicans and democrats but, actually, the two parties are the "ins" and the "outs" Neither has much resemblance to its original form. The party now in power has, in its administrative record, violated practically every tenet upon which the democratic party was created. Its structure of top-heavy bureaucracy and centralized government is a far cry from the principles which marked the beginnings of the democratic party.' The elephant,' which symbolizes the G. 0. P., to properly represent the party as it is today, should be pictured as one of those museum skeletons. ' The republicans have been given some good advice re cently by outstanding political advisers. This advice is to bring forth a positive and constructive platform, rather than taking A negative attitude which offers only criticism of the New" Deal, There has' been manifest a decided turn in. the political tide recently, the current running against the party in power. Many republicans, in their over-optimism, believe the force of accumulated hatred of the 0. P. candidate into office. If such an attitude, it is not deserving of victory. The repub lican party owes it to the people of the United States to bring forth a platform which would, if approved by the voters, as sure restoration of constitutional government, respect for states' rights, an international policy pledged to permanent peace fihd a program for bringing order out of existing do mestic chaos. The party's stand on political issues should be clef.r-cut. The platform should contain no mumbo-jumbo or doiible-talk. We have heard much criticism leveled at Governor Dewey, who from all present appearances will bo the republican candidate, because of his failure to make a declaration of policy. We cannot join in that criticism. It is foolhardy to risk exposure to snipers before the attack. A candidate is supposed to represent the party and the party platform. Until the platform is prepared and adopted there is, techni cally, no policy upon which a candidate rightfully can pre sent himself to the voters. We may well be sure, if Dewey is the candidate, the platform views. . ' ' In our opinion, the republican party can be successful only if it casts off reactionary tendencies and places before the people a candidate and program in which the public can have complete confidence. We had a long talk recently one olf the major battlefronts. ing the attitude of the men in vote question. He replied ho had heard the matter freely discussed by his comrades, and the consensus of opinion was "let the people at home do the voting and we'll do the fighting." That attitude places the responsibility squarely up to the voters at home. It makes it doubly important that the ma jor parties be honest with those who must make the decision. Disregarding the frills, horseplay, ballyhoo and specious oratory that -will probably clutter proceedings, the repub licans, nt their coming national offer a platform of constructive policies if liny are to ex pect and deserve victory in need not be so particular. We tion's policy, or lack thereof, kept an election promise, so as a platlorm it needs only being to clear the Leningrad Murmansk railroad (see map). Swedish reports say the Finns have reformed their cabinet and are now In a position to ask Mos cow for an armistice, i There have been two factions In Fin land -pro-German and antlGer- nan. Mannerheim, the Finn gen eral, has been generally regard ed as pro-na.i In his sympathies and training. I 0 Ult heavy American bomber:: hit the German robot launch ing area as many as FOUR times n one day. At night ihe Hiitish heavies take over. On the Cher bourg peninsula, we've captured some of the robot-launching equipment, thus i-ii.iMing us to figure out better wajs to com bat the new German vc:qon. T HE Russians, on the third an niversary of the German in vasion of Russia, assert that in these bloody three years 7.800,000 Germans haw been killed or cap tured as against 5,300.1)00 Rus sians killed, missing or wounded. (The' German figures on missing and Hounded are obviously un available to the Russians.) ANOTHER slightly interesting sidelight: Jap CIVILIANS are coming through our lines on Saipan is land and GIVING THEMSELVES UP. The suicide complex doesn't PLATFORMS V.

IN these days ol world-shattering war news, let's not overlook an outstanding stoop on the home front : Governor Arr.all, of Georgia, comes away from a White House conference and announces that FDH Is going to be a candidate for a (ninth term; State Townsend Clubs' Manager to Speak Here A.

It would be difficult to, find a finer state ment of the spirit that should characterize a Christian's out look upon life. Two men found themselves on an un familiar mountain trail. Some miles from their destination, when the sun went down, Darkness completely swallow ed them up.

There are two things they might , have done that night. They could have curs ed the darkness that over whelmed them, or they could have lighted the lantern and followed directions which they did. How. many are cursing the darkness of the present world conditions at times It looks as if we were In for a to tal eclipse of high morals and good will,' but Jesus said, "I am the light of the world," and our present condition is evidence of moral and spiritual darkness.

LETTERS to the Editor NEGLIGENCE IN VOTER REGISTRATION IS NOTED Editor News-Review: This Is a presidential election year and everyone seems to be interested in the election this fall, which is as it should be. But I fjnd, from circulating petitions, that a great many persons who signed petitions believe they are registered voters although a check reveals that their names do not appear on thej registration books. . By making inquiries from some of these parties, I learned they did not vote either in the primar ies or the general elections in the last two years, that some have moved from one voting district to another, or have otherwise lost their registration. The petitions signed in Doug las county to put the state old age pension matter on the ballot show nearly 14 per cent of the signers are not registered. If a person does not vote in at least one election In a two-year period, the name Is taken off the poll books. It is the duty of every citizen to vote and If he or she does not vote, then the individ ual has no right to complain about any laws that are passed. So I would urge every person who has some doubt whether or not he is properly registered, to determine his standing imme diately, and would urge every cit izen to be prepared to vote, as it is the one privilege we have left. A. E. Rutter. Roseburg, Ore. Ike Williams Flattens Shans in Tenth Round NEW YORK, .June 24. (AP) The lightweight fistic heights had a new boy today Ike Williams, slugging negro from Trenton, N. J. He had punched his way Into the picture last night in Madison Square garden with a 10th round technical knockout over Clea Shans of Los Angeles. It was the first time in 79 bouts that Shans failed to finish. , Shans forced the fighting all the way, trying to get in close where he's a devastating hitter with each hand, but Williams re treated and counter-punched his way to victory. Referee Billy Cavanagh didn't even start a count when Shans went down from a right to the jaw after 26 seconds in the tenth, but he could have counted to plenty before Shans regained con sciousness. Many Danish women have "cur iosity mirrors" which enable them to look up and down the street fmm their windows. ROSEBURG UNDERTAKING CO. Established 1901 M. E.

Embalmar Saipan Situation Critical for Japan, Spokesman Admits (By the Associated Press.) Etsuzo Kurihara, chief of the naval press section of Japanese imperial headquarters, declared in a formal statement broadcast by Tokyo today that the "battle situation in the Saipan area Is the most critical one since the begin ning of the war." The statement, recorded by the Office of War Information, said a major effort would be necessary to turn back advanced naval ele ments "centered around more than a dozen battleships . with more than 100 transport ships." "The enemy's pla.i of advance Is the greatest sir.ee the begin ning of the wat m the strength of the main fercj and in the furi ousness of the enemy's fighting morale," Kurihara's statement said. He said that Saipan in the Mar ianas islands is 1,208 nautical miles from Tokyo and 1,500 nau tical miles from the Philippines. . "Therefore, if the enemy suc ceeds In building, a powerful air base here, the influence on our sea and air suprematy in the wes tern Pacific will be extremely great. If the enemy uses large type bombers, the homeland of Japan and the Philippines will be exposed within the bombing sphere of enemy planes.' The statement broadcast on the Japanese home radio as well as abroad acknowledged the Saipan operation as an "advance of the enemy into our InirSr line." The naval press chief said: ' "By mobilizing the entire strength of the land, sea and air forces in this area,' we must exert our efforts for the destruction of the enemy in the future. The bat. tie on Saipan is one of the most difficult for the enemy and the suffering of the enemy Is clearly seen in the foreign and war re ports from this area.
