The dis patch says: "The attempt at Hitler's life was designed NOT to overthrow the nazis . . . but to show the people of Germany that It Is POSSIBLE TO ACT AGAINST HITLER despite the SS and the gestapo." ; THAT makes sense, for It Is un derstandable that diead of the bloody gestapo has been a power ful restraining Influence In Ger many. Before there could be rev olution, somebody had to prove that revolution was feasible. KEEP POLICE RESERVES THIS story isn't official. It may be more dependable for that very reason. Officials don't like to go out on limbs that may be sawed off off behind them and are apt to fall Into the habit of thinking that the less said the better. They seldom tell all they know. Much more Is known Inside Germany about this affair tliun hus been permitted to get out, and it Is quite probable that press association men on the Gorman borders know people who can SECRETLY give them a pretty straight inside story. So don't disregard this AP version. CHURCHILL, who has been In Normandy for the past three days, is almost jovial. Speaking to Hilled soldiers, he says: "Opposite you is an enemy whose central power Is CRUM BLING. "The Germans weren't happy (before) on their fighting fronts. Now, suddenly boiling up In their stomachs, has come a deadly quarrel at home. It's not a nice thing for a man lo hear of REVOLUTION going on in his own country when he's being at tacked." He then adds: "There are grave signs uf weak ness in Germany. The war might come to an end earlier than we have a right to say." THE Russians, by German ac count, are only .r0 miles (rum Warsaw and 3U5 miles from Ber lin as this is written. They're far across the Hug. and only 20 miles from the Vistula, the last natural defense harrier beforc Germany. They've left Brest Litovsk and l.wow far lo their rear, to be mopped up laler. SHAEF says: "The Allies are massing their forces for a new drive to break out of the Normandy beachhead." Accord lug to unofficial accounts, the forces being massed arc mighty. (They are also walling for bel ter weather. Even the weather MIGHT turn against Hitler.) ON Guam, we have Port Apru and the island's best airdrome "isolated," and are closing in. Jap opposition Is reported lighter than at Saipan. Our casualties so far ore 348 dead, 1500 wounded and 110 missing. We're landing also on Tinlan By Charles V. Stanton CALLED out of bed by the fire siren around midnight, Mon day, we drove to the scene of the blaze and found several members of the civilian defense police reserves aiding the fire department by directing traffic and keeping channels open for movement of equipment. A few nights earlier we had observed them patrolling the carnival grounds. They frequently have aided- in handling large crowds and direct ing traffic in connection with public gatherings. Sunday morning, another organization, the Roseburg unit of the Douglas County Mounted Police, searched every inch of the river bank for long distances from the point where the body of little Vera May Hall was found Saturday, at tempting to find evidence which might point to criminal ac tion in connection with her death. These two organizations, the Police Reserves and the Mounted Police, are the outgrowth of the war emergency. We hope they will be continued as permanent organizations, their ranks strengthened when necessary, and a definite place made for them during the coming years. We would like to see a supplemental organization formed t'.fter the war The Douglas County Aerial Police. This organization would include responsible men and women who will become fliers in the aviation era which is to come. The Reserve Police and the Mounted Police already have i.bly demonstrated their worth to the community. Obvious ly there is no way in which we can prove the statement, but we are confident the Police Reserves have prevented many accidents, which would have occurred had it not been for the service given in handling traffic and crowds. The Mounted Police, through patrols on county roads, saved livestock and poultry owners many thousands of dollars. Thoir vigilance frightened livestock and poultry thieves and has greatly reduced losses on farms. The "motilities" are planning their future activities to in clude the entertainment field with sponsorship of rodeos, horse racing, exhibitions, etc., while they are also lending their influence to the revival of annual county fairs. The Reedsport division already has scheduled a rodeo to be held August 26 and 27. Following the war, there doubtless will be a revival of civilian aviation in this area, where use of private planes now is prohibited as a matter of defense. Douglas county has an exceptionally large percentage of men in the army and navy air forces. Undoubtedly some of these, at least, will continue their interest in flying and will have planes of their own. It would be comparatively simple to organize a limited! number of these fliers into an aerial police group to co ordinate efforts with the other two forces, thus providing fullest possible support to our regular police departments in any kind of emergency. There are many conditions in which an aerial arm would be of aid. Fast transportation, courier service, forest patrol, search for lost hunters, are only a few of the purposes for which the flying corps could be used. With two-way radio hook-up, the planes could coordinate with ground forces in highway patrol, establishing road blocks to prevent escape of criminals, or guarding approaches to scenes of accidents, Aerial ambulance service is a possibility. We have a wing of the civil air patrol organized at Rose burg, but, lacking planes, the group has not been active ex cept in ground school. However, it forms a nucleus on which to base a third group which will round out our re serve police needs. OUT OUR WAY By J. R. Williams CWOO.'

We must tell you about the nice compliment that Esther Ged des received on her Music You Remember, the program of or gan music that you'll get at 6:30 Tuesday and Thursday. One of our good friends brought in a sheet of paper that was headed We appreciate the fine music by Mrs. Esther Geddes, and under the statement there were twnty-one signatures. Take a bow, Mrs. Geddes, and keep up the good work as of 6:30 tomor row night. We reminded you last night that Wednesday at 6:30 was curtain time for First Night er, with "Anything Can Happen in Hollywood." Main Line at 8 this evening and Bulldog Drum mond at 8:30. The noted British sleuth and his indispensable aide, Denny, guard an almost price less diamond, little knowing that during their twelve-hour watch a theft and murder will occur wow. Now, on Thursday morning at 10:45, The American Woman's Jury presents the ease of Miss X, with a problem that can be argued from several angles. Be sure to listen in and see what your solution would be, and whether or not you agree with the findings of the jury. One other spot on Thursday a. m. we wish to call to your attention it's the 11:30 program, "Between You and Jane Cowl." It's worth fifteen minutes of your time just to listen to her voice. The stories she tells are very interesting, too. No more Radio Tour at 2:45. In stead you will be hearing differ ent Service Bands for 15 min utes, beginning at 2:30. Good music and we think you'll like it for a change. There are other changes in the wino- but we'll tell you about them later. 9:00 Alka Seltzer News. 9:15 Service Salute, E. G.

Ambulance Deals Injuries VANCOUVER, Wash., July 21 (AP) An ambulance rushing Matthew Sagen, shipyard work er, to a hospital for treatment of rib fractures collided with a shipyard bus and three of its pas sengers were hospitalized with .fractured ribs. Inoculation to be Required of Those Planning to Swim Supervised swimming will be Introduced at the Mosher street beach starting Thursday, It was announced today by Mel Ingram, recreation supervisor, it wui rje required, however, that all swim mers who come under the super vised program present certifi cates showing completion of ty phoid inoculations, Ingram stated. No tests have been made of South Umpqua water, It was re ported, but the river ordinarily is condemned for bathing purposes during the warm weather. Con sultations with health authori ties have been held, Ingram said, and assurance has been given that swimmers may safely enjoy the bathing facilities providing they take precautions against typhod fever by securing inocu lations. These may be obtained either from family physicians or at the county health office in the court house. A nominal fee is charged for the "shots" but ar rangements have been made with civio clubs to pay the costs for any children unable to afford the modest charge. Harold Marr, Red Cross swim ming instructor, has been em ployed as supervisor and life guard, Ingram stated, and will be at the beach daily from 1 to 8:30 p. m. He will conduct classes for non-swimmers on a schedule still to be formulated. Construction of log floats which will enclose a portion of the beach is being started to provide desired safety devices for inexperienced swimmers. DAILY DEVOTIONS DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS Life always has difficulties and we may be sure this will continue as long as we are in the flesh. Each day seems- to bring its troubles, and often we are hard pressed by circum stances over which we have no control. But Christ is suffi cient for all our needs. "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." The man with the Infirmity lay beside the pool, waiting and complaining. Ho did not recognize the presence of the Christ, who was ready to bless and help him and restore him to strength. There are many who languish beside some pool today, waiting for something to happen to make thoir lot better and ever complaining because they are so much worse off than others. If they would open the eyes of the snirit. they would see that Christ stands beside them, ever willing to give His help, if they will turn to Him and arise with faith to do His Bid ding. How different life would be. "Ye have not because ye ask not." We need not be overcome by our difficulties. Christ is our strength. "My grace is sufficient for thee. "When through the deep waters I call thee to go. The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow: For I will be with thee, thy trials to bless, And sanctify to thee thy deep est distress." Amen.
