Istanbul reports that HUN DREDS of German corpses are beginning to drift out Of the Hack sea into the Bosporus. SUCH are the fruits of world conquest. Swollen bodies float' ing In the sea. The bones of the best and bravest scattered afar over the world. Famine and pes tilence striding in the paths where peace and happiness SHOULD walk.' And history tells us that no body ever conquered the world and made It stick. It's an unbeat able game like trying to get rich by playing slot machines. WOULD conquest Is a DISEASE like the rabies. SOMEDAY the quiet, industri ous, reasonable, thinking people of the World will become wise enough to realize that world con querors are like rabid dogs a menace to be destroyed on sight. THEYl arc SO EASILY recogniz able. Alexander, Caesar, Genghis Khun, Napoleon, Wilhelm the Kaiser, Tojo, Hitler the whole crew of them has followed a pat tern that history lias clearly Identified for us. If we saw a dog In our neigh borhood going rabid, we'd KILL IT. Tiie signs of world conquest rabies are lis PLAIN IN AD VANCE as the signs of dog rabies. But the world, KNOWING what was coming, has never yet had the common sense to ACT IN TIME and kill the rabid dog. SO it pays tiie penalty ol bloody corpses of the flowoi uf us youth rotting on the battlefields of world wars. r rHE Russians are stormine Vitebsk, on the eastern front. In earnest, advancing seven to nine miles on a 16-mlle front. Moscow says: "The German trenches i(nd battlefields are lit tered Willi Hitlerite corpses, smashed equipment and ma terial." This is- the Russians' second big offensive. The Finn drive still rolls on. YOU'VE probably been watching them and WAITING TO SEE. The Russian baiters ariong us keep us suspicious. But !lomehow the Russians always see n to per form. Tills writer, Vho Is no Russian lover, has a notion that WE and the Russians will have littl1) trou ble In the predictable, future. FREE ADVICE By Charles i LWAYS forward with advice, and full of bright ideas, we n desire to offer a suggestion to Uncle Sam with regard to a most serious situation. There is impending a strike of sawmill workers and log gers because 6f the refusal of the War Labor board to grant desired wage increases. If such action occurs, it may become necessary for the federal government to take Over the industry, even to the point of using troops, needed on battle fronts, to preserve order and maintain production. . Now comes the idea ! Why not train Wacs and Waves to do guard duty and let them move in instead of army regu lars? If we know our loggers, it wouldn't take long to get them back on the job. But, actually, this strike threat is too serious for jest. We hope the labor leaders, who have it in their hands to control the men engaged in the industry, will think seriously before they permit such action to occur. There is talk among workers that this will not be a strike in the orthodox manner. Instead, they propose to quit the industry and apply for work in shipyards and other war occupations where the wage scale is higher than in mills and wodds. It is the disparity In wages that forms the bone of con tention. Men engaged in the Woods industry charge that, in many other essential occupations, laborers of even less nkill are receiving considerably better wages and are not working under the pressure placed upon logging woods and mills to Maintain a high rate of production. Therefore, some are suggesting that instead of a strike they quit work en image and apply for jobs in shipyards where their skills Will command a higher rati, of pay. Actually, such plan is pure subterfuge, but no more so. in lact, than the tactics used by the War Labor board in evading court discipline in the Montgomery Ward seizure. Tergiversation in times such as these should not be treated lightly, whether by an agency of the federal government or by labor unions. But when such policies are openly used by federal departments, it is not surprising that equal sophistry is practiced by other groups. The American public is not as dumb as some bureaucrats apparently believe. Military authorities are publicly proclaiming that wood and wood products n6w form the most critical of war ma terial needs. Realizing their importance in the war effort, the men engaged in the timber industry feel they ;ire en titled to at least equal consideration in the matter of wages with workers m other occupations essential to the war ef fort. We believe that in such lrom those of the general public acquainted with the facts But just as their cause may be, we cannot condone a strike or any cessation or curtailment of production effort at this time. The fact that means sojtmieh to the continued vlctori oils iirnspe lifinn nf ' -fte War removes ahv Possible measures Which would retard In the event of a strike, many people will say that everv striker should be forced into uniform, given a gun and sent to the firing line at G. I. Wages. To this we would freely agree, providing the War Labor board and National Labor Relations board received the same treatment. Throughout more than a hundred years Russia has never wanted WHAT WE WANT. Trouble Is most apt tp rise be tween people who want the same things. R OCKET bombs fall on England ever, but at less frequent inter vals. Incendiary robots have boon added to the explosive ones. We still batler the Calais rocket coast by day and by night with our bombs. ON E Noiwelglan submarine, during what the cautious dis W U. S.

Never got a strike in Kelsey valley, the upper headwaters of the Umpqua, nor did we have much luck down stream, until we hit below Cope land creek on our return. But of course we only struck the river at widely separated points. Showers were frequent, alternat ing rapidly with other showers, for the most part. Sunshine was a rarity.

A. wants to Inves tlgate rentals, why don't they start in Washington, D. C? My daughter lives in Washington in a small house that accommodates three families. She rents two tiny rooms on the second floor. They are not modern, but she pays $50 per month and is'glad to get the rooms at that. The best" modern three-room apartment at the Northside apart ments in Roseburg never did rent for $50 a month and doesn't now. - If those who are complaining would go out of Roseburg to some of the other towns, they would learn that their rentals are not too high but too low.
