After Saipan, they will fight like wildcats to hold Guam. GUAM is believed to he garri soned by about 20,000 Japs -roughly the same as at Suipan. It has the same hills and caves and crevices as Saipan and In these hills and caves and crevices the Japs may be expected to die to the last man as at Saipan. It will be a hard and bloody fight- but wo will WIN. We have what it takes to win. On tile home political fionl, P'Dll was one of the minor casualties of the startling world developments of the p;ist few days. Kor once, his luck in the TIMING of the news deserted him. He had planned a dramatic ac ceptance of his fourth nomina tion traveling across the coun try In great secrecy (probably not over a half million people knowing about it to a "bristling Pacific Coast wartime base" to take the microphone on the great night of the Chicago convention. The Germans unit the Japs chose this time, of all times, to steal the spotlight with news so intriguing (even if phony) as to lake possession of people's minds to the practical exclusion of everything else. Fira Damage Slight A spot fire on the roof of the T. W. Suckling apartment house, !J2fl S. Main St., Roseburg, caused yninor damage last night. The fire wag discovered at midnight and was extinguished before it had spread to more than a small sec tion of the roof. I THE NEED OF SINCERITY By Charles V. Stanton The tiumdt and the shouting dicit; The Captains and the Kings depart: Still stands the forlorn sacrifice, "Hank" Wallace gout of Neiv Deal art. UJE must humbly apologize for mutilation of Rudyard Kip " ling's beautiful lines, but has been casually brushed off a victim or typical New Deal political double-cross, proving that the democrats have no hesitancy changing ONE horse in the middle of the stream, we simply couldn't resist the paraphrase. Not that we Should anything happen which would prevent President Roosevelt from serving his full term, in the event of re election, we believe Senator ter substitute than Wallace. But no one can deny that Wal lace received a raw deal from the New Deal. MORAL: There's only ONE indispensable man! Now that the "Captains and the Kings" have departed from Chicago and the 'tumult and the shouting'' are on transcription platters, we can begin to examine into the pat tern of the forthcoming political campaign. We can toss the platform into the discard. The president has never permitted himself or pre-election promises. The sound well on the air, but the time spent on composition yas wasted insofar as any bearing they might have on the president's acts following election, unless he has changed mightily in the matter of keeping promises. The convention has revealed Mr. Roosevelt has donned the commander-in-chief. Instead last contest, he will identify himself with the military depart ments of government, as he ceptance speech from a Pacific coast naval base. We may even be treated to speeches from foreign battlefields. Dewey is to be the campaign's Little Lord Fauntleroy, the republican Boy Scout, too youthful and inexperienced to even be considered as a possible commander-in-chief. The records of 1932-36 will be ground for the president's Great Humanitarian pose, care fully obscuring the fact that the administration has produc ed nothing but chaos and extravagance since the first term. He will be the ONLY man capable of international states manship. Coupled with smearing, mud-slinging and villi fication, this probably will be the outline of the New Deal program. What will be the republican political astuteness by keeping his mouth shut. But he must start talking soon. We imagine one of Dewey's first acts will be to cast off the mantle of the reactionary, isola tionist, die-hard G. O. P. and emerge as a spokesman for the liberal-thinking republicans. It's our opinion that if he doesn't, he's sunk. But will campaign based upon a positive approach to war, peace and domestic issues, or will they confine their efforts to carping criticism, mud-slinging and "viewing with alarm?" The New Deal left the party convention with the backing of the machine bosses, the malcontents, the special privilege groups the Hillman-led labor factions and radical forces, which, when counted with the millions of federal office hold ers who will vote to hold their jobs, form a considerable slice of our voting population, which already may be counted on the New Deal tally sheet. But the balance of power lies in a great group of sin cere Americans who, if they are not to vote the New Deal into office for a fourth term, must be convinced of the need for a change. They can only be convinced by a sincere and honest approach, which carries assurance of correcting the obvious abuses of governmental authority prevalent today. If the republicans fail in sincerity, they will fail of election. Nazi Prisoners Give Opinions on Upheaval at Home CAEN, France, July 22 -(API - Newly captured German pris oners, commenting on the at tempted assassination of Hitler, said today I hey long had known ol a bitter quarrel between the fuehrer and the German high command. "The generals want to get Hit ler out and make a quick end of the war," said Corp. Werner, 19, of Minister, a member of an elite nazl division. He was captured! yesterday near Cagny. j "Of course the whole thing may bo a fake to whip up sympa thy of (lie German people for Hi lei. Many of our people are sick to death of the war, but when they hear the leader narrowly es caped death they say, 'What a terrible thing to attack our poor dear fuehrer' " Asked how he felt personally about Hitler, Werner stiffened his shoulders and a fanatical gleam entered his eyes. "I put everything on him," he said. "I know things look bad for us, but I still think the fuehrer has some secret great weapon that will win the war for Ger many." He added that the German peo ple were too afraid of the gestapo to voice their feelings. Hlmmlcr Called "Butcher" Commenting on the announce ment that Heinrieh Hlmmlcr had taken control of the home armies of Germany, the prisoner said, "I've got to admit I don't think much of Himmlcr. He's ft butcher. If anybody steps out of line it's on the wall they'll be shot."

OUT OUR WAY KM By SUSAN We missed Point Sublime last Monday night--being a conscien tious gardener by spurts and spells and they tell us we miss ed the best show they've had for months. Doggone it. Here's hop ing the garden won't get so dried up this week-end because we'd sure hate to miss out on it again. We didn't hear Sherlock Holmes either by 10 o'clock we were plumb wore out, and in bed but we'll try to catch up on all of our listening tonight. "The Strange Case of the Aluminum Crutch" is tonight's episode with death striking suddenly on the Scottish moors and Holmes' talent being extended to the utmost to discov er the sinister murderer. Tomorrow a. m. at 10:45 Is American Woman's Jury good entertainment here. How many times do you agree with the ver dict of the jury as broadcast? Tuesday - afternoon we'll praotl cally promise you that you'll hear Welcome Inn at 2 remem ber that this is your request pro gram and that this is Esther Belt at the piano. In the evening it's Esther Geddes at the organ, bringing you Music You Remem ber at 6:30. It seems that some confusion arose from the two Es thers, hut they are two separate and distinct personalities. As a matter of fact, one's a blonde and the other a brunette, but they both play mighty party music. KRNR Mutual Broadoastlng System, 1490 Kilocycles.

Hull described Himmler, to whom Hitler has delegated su preme authority within Germany, ar Hitler's "chief executioner" and said the efforts to restore an appearance of unity in the high command were at this stage "frantic attempts." Hull's comment, in part: "The attack on Hitler and his explanatory speech clearly indi cate that a realization of Ger many's impending defeat is spreading in the reich. He and two of his most important mili tary advisers have now denounc ed as criminal traitors a "clique ot former generals who had to be chased from their posts for a leadership as cowardly as it was incompetent." "Hitler has furthermore been compelled to remove the chief of the German staff and to appoint his chief executioner, Heinrieh Himmler, as commander of the army in Germany. These frantic attempts to restore the apparent unity of the German command illustrate the divergence of views between the army and the party which has developed as a result of the steadily deteriorating mil itary postion of Germany."

Monetary Plans Call for U. S. To Put Up Top Sum BRETTON WOODS, N. H., July 22 (AP) The united na tions monetary conference, after three weeks of hard work, comes to an end tonight with the sign ing of documents for an interna tional monetary fund and a world bank for reconstruction and de velopment. These two projects, which a conference resolution termed "im portant for peace and prosper ity," subsequently will be put be fore the legislative bodies of 44 united and associated nations for approval. They are expected to come be fore the American congress some time early next year. The successful conclusion of the conference's labors was reach ed late yesterday with an agree ment for an 58,800,000,000 recon struction bank whose purpose will be to make loans and guar antee those of private investors in postwar reconstruction and de velopment projects. The monetary fund, which also totals $8,800,000,000, is designed tc promote international trade by providing foreign exchange, or currency, to those nations who may be short of it because they are unable to sell as much abroad as they import. Of the total bank capital, the United States will subscribe $3, 175,000,000, the United Kingdom Sl.300,000,000, the soviet union S900,000,000, China $600,000,000, and France $150,000,000, with the remainder apportioned among 39 other nations in varying amounts.
