(Continued from page 1)
doubt thai Hie Germans set a
lot of store by the robots.
ALLIED reconnaissance indi
cates that there is no fixed
line of fortifications in France
short of the old Maglnot and
Siegfried lines along the German
borders. If that Is true, the Ger
mans fighting their fray back
home will have to rely on a mo
bile line of men, guns, tanks,
h'lre, mines, etc.
That doesn't mean much. Fixed
lefenses have stopped NOBODY,
ANWHERE in this war. They
didn't stop the Germans at the
start, and they aren't stopping
our side now even the elaborate
fixed defenses of the Atlantic
coastal "wall."
BRITISH heavy bombers smack
the German submarine pens at
Brest to keep the nazis from
moving their subs OUT.
That pretty wlls tells Hie tale.
Only a Utile while back, we were
doing our best to keep them from
getting their subs out where they
could attack us.
A minor, but maybe important,
sidelight: French factory
workers are reported to have
started guerrilla warfare against
the German occupation truops in
Paris.
The Polish underground in
Warsaw is believed to be running
short of ammunition.
THE Russians are INSIDE East
Prussia actually lighting on
German soil. Russian cavalry has
galloped to within 3(1 miles of
Krakow (where German head
fuarlers in Poland were moved
from Warsaw.) and less than 75
miles from German suil in Silesia.
IT is disclosed that a new allied
air force is operating from
bases in YUGOSLAVIA In sup
port of Tito.
THE lack ol lighting in Ro
mania, where the hulk of the
German natural oil comes from,
leads us to suspect rattier strong
ly that the Russians are planning
to push over the Carpathians and
boom down the Danube, t litis cut
ting Romania off.
FAIRLY big news conies from
the South Pacific. General Te
shima's Jap 12nd army is reported
to be retreating from the entire
western end of Ne Guinea
probably hoping lo eel hy sea
to Halmahera, In the Moluccas.
New Guinea has got :m hut for
tbe little yellow men to hold, and
instead of staying to die they're
trying to get out to fight again
Stern necessity may lie teaching
the monkey-men some rudinu r 's
of common sense.
Japs who die for the empcioi
may win everlasllng glory (ai
cording to wierd Jap notions'
but they won't do the emperor
much good In the pinch that is
coming.
THE Pacific is relatively quiet
so far as sensational develop
ments are concerned. It won't
stay that way Jong.

Hamilton Fish won out again

INSULT TO AMERICANS
By Charles V. Stanton
UNDER the heading "An Insult to Oregon," the Oreyun
Journal in a recent issue said :
There is a brief, two-syllabled word that describes the
assignment by the national OPA administration of an "ex
port" from Washington, D. C, to check up on the lamb
situation in Oregon. The action is an insult. It is a check
up on whether we tell the truth. It is a challenge to the
veracity of men who know the facts about lamb spoilage
In this area, men who have telegraphed appeals to the
oracle of the national capital, among these men, United
States Senator Guy C. Cordon, Governor Earl Snell, Oregon
OPA Director McDanneil Brown and R. L. Clark, secretary
of the Portland Livestock exchange.
The Jonrmd could have added that similar recommenda
tions were made by the Oregon State Grange, the Oregon
Farm Bureau, the Wool Growers Association, the Farmers
Union, and the economic division of the Oregon State college.
Yet, despite all of these recommendations to keep lamb off
the ration list, the OPA at Washington ordered an "expert"
to make an investigation.
We concur fully in the Jourrud's conclusion :
The "expert's" coming Is an insult. Rationing of lamb
In this area should be suspended immediately in behalf
of housewives, markets, farmers and the industry. The
handling of the local lamb emergency by national OPA
is one of bureaucracy's crassest exhibitions of stupidity.
But why limit bureaucratic crassness to the OPA? Do
not all federal bureaus, departments, agencies and officials
treat the American people as if they were liars, cheats, chis
elers, incompetents, ignoramuses and dopes?
We could say, parenthetically, that the New Deal might,
well be justified in such conclusions, seeing that the Ameri
can people have been "dopey"
power for three terms and possibly a fourth. But that
would be loo cynical, so we won't say i.t.
Our veracity is insulted at

patriotism is insulted by censorship which challenges our
ability to absorb bad news.
the withholding of information due the American people.
The press was banned from the Teheran conference, con
cerning which a report was dictated from the White House.
The press has been denied access to the international food
conference, the Bretton Woods conference on world mone
tary affairs, and reporters will be excluded from the Inter
national oil conference. A string of pending international
meetings are allegedly slated to dramatize the president's
campaign for reelection, but it is quite certain these meet
ings will be held in secret and the reports will be carefully
prepared by the White House
A foolish censorship denies
publish items of news, which
taries, such as the recent revelation by Congressman Mag
Kuson of the soviet route for flying warplanes from the
United States. Courlmartial of the army and navy comman
ders at Pearl Harbor is postponed for political reasons, even
congress being denied the true facts.
The "insult" is not alone to Oregon ; it affects all of the
American public.
We learn from the American Forest Products Industries,
Inc., that there are sixteen species of wood, native lo this
country, which will not float in water, making them ideal
for the Japanese navy, which seems to have the same complaint.
