will try to hold, for the present,
at least, In France.
FRENCH guerrillas are hover
ing on the flanks of the re
tiring Germans, cutting railroads
and highways, derailing trains,
' blowing up trucks, cutting off
isolated German units and doing
all the mischief they caii which
seems to be considerable.
THIS writer makes no predic
tions. To make predictions,
one needs to know some FACTS
-and we outsiders know very
lew facts indeed.
But It LOOKS as if Hitler Is
getting ready to pull clear back
Into the borders of Germany for
his last-ditch stand.
ITour map will show you that
he has quite a Job on his hands.
If he gets away with it without
disaster, he will be good.
IN France since D-day, wo and
the British have killed eight
German generals and captured
two more and an admiral. Since
they started their offensive on
June 23, the Russians have cap
tured 27 and killed several more.
The Germans themselves AN
NOUNCE that they have killed
16 of their own high officers who
were suspected of being untl-Hlt-ler.
It's a fair guess thai they have
killed more than they have an
nounced. IF the Germans want to KILL
OFF THEIR OWN generals as
fast as we and the Russians com
bined can kill them, we shouldn't
complain.
MOSCOW says that "thousands
of German soldiers strung
out in the vast spaces from Riga
to Lake I'eipus lire being driven
hack to the Haltie in a BATTLE
OF EXTERMINATION."
The Moscow tlisapteh adds that
three Russian columns are push
ing toward Riga "for possibly the
biggest kill of the summer cam
paign." The Russian high com
maud adds: " The enemy's forces
are being bled while."
AN Istanbul (Turkey) dispaleh
says von Pa pen was ARREST
ED as soon as he entered Ger
many (on his way back trom
Turkey!. Apparently Hitler is
killing diplomats along Willi
generals.
TRAGIC news comes fro in
China.
HENGYANG FALLS to the
Japs. The commander of the Chi
nese garrison that has held out
so long messages Chungking that
his troops have been slain al
most to the last man. "I am
afraid this may be my last mes
sage to you," he udds.
IT seems probable that the Japs
will now be able to close the
gap in the railroad that leads
from Shanghai and other north
ern China ports CLEAR
AROUND to Utirmu.
With their ships being sunk
steadily, they NEED this railroad
badly.

It, and there seems no other
ARGENTINE
By Chariot
4 RGENTINA'S neutrality is very ttimilur to that of Ire-
land, stemming; from intense nationalism arid an unwill
ingness to be pushed around, the Rev. John A. Cochran, for
seven and one-half years superintendent of missions for the
Church of the Nazarene in that country, believes. The mis
sionary holds that careless statesmanship and failure on the
part of heads of our state department to recognize the spirit
of the Argentine government is partly responsible for
strained relationships between Argentina and the United
States.
It is not the first time we
pressed. Prominent writers
ly have declared their views that our state department has
erred in recalling representatives just at the time their ser
vices were most needed in countries whose favors we desire,
instead of keeping thein on
been exhausted.
We were greatly interested
information, given during our interview with him, but we
were more impresesd by the fact that this is a country in
which a man can discuss an involved political situation, even
voicing criticism of methods used by our government in
dealing with neighboring nations. There are few places in
the world where such freedom of expression would be permitted.
On the other hand, there would be in few nations a popu
lation capable of intelligently receiving and weighing in
formation on such vital subjects. It is only because the
American people have the right of free speech and free press
that they are sufficiently informed to be capable of deliber
ating such matters. In a large part of the world today people
know only what certain leaders want them to know-and no
one of contrary opinion is permitted to make his views
public.
We do not desire to convey the idea that the Kov. Mr.
Cochran, who was a speaker at the Koseburg Church of the
Nazarene, is using the pulpit to discuss political matters.
The statements to which we refer were in response to direct
questions in a personal interview and do not concern views
expressed in any public meeting. Nor was his criticism as
broad, when spoken in relation lo other matters, as it might
appear in print.
But we have been hearing much concerning Argentina's
stand in recent months and her refusal to join other west
ern hemisphere nations in direct antagonism to the axis
powers. So opinions of a person familiar with the facts
are of more than passing interest.
The Rev. Mr. Cochran declares that Argentina for years
has been exploited by capital from other nations. Her busi-j
ness, industry and utilities have been owned and operated i
by foreigners. It is only in very recent times that the!
Argentine nation has begun to take over development of!
its own resources and business. It's trade has been almost
entirely with European countries., There had been little at
tempt on the part of the United States to cultivate friend
ship between the two nations prior to the start of the war.
The Germans, however, had been very friendly and the Ja
panese have been a courteous, law-abiding, industrious mi
nority population.
The growing nationalism of the people is expressed in a
determination to choose their own path, without interference,
rather than through special liking for the axis, the missionary
believes. The vast majority of 'the native population, in his
opinion, is friendly to the allied cause.
The Argentine Is worried about post war markets. Nearly
all of its products are in direct competition with those of
the United Slates. England has been the leading buyer of
Argentina's agricultural products and raw materials, while
Germany, Great Britain and the United States have been
sellers of machinery and manufactured goods.
Had the allied powers given Argentina assurance of a bal
anced trade and used tact, diplomacy and friendliness in !
political dealings, there would not be friction between the I
nations today, Cochran contends. His opinions may be at I
variance with those of many other people, but he sheds an
interesting light on a situation of grave importance today.
It is doubly interesting that we are privileged to hear mure
than one side of any controversial subject.

Recently tightened quarantine
Idws confining canines were not

and Mrs. Frank L. Patterson of
Roseburg, has recently completed
training at t ie aviation ordnance
school, naval air technical train

cording to word received from
the navy department. Before en
listing in the navy in January,

the Young's Bay lumber mill.
Upon graduation from school at
Norman he received the rate of
seaman, first class. He will now
be transferred to a naval unit

Farm Wage Rules
Received by County
Agent in Roseburg
Copies of an official Interpreta
tion of the regulations governing
legal rates for farm wages will
clear up some questions arising
among Douglas county farmers.
These have been received by
County Agent J. Roland Parker,
from the Oregon War Food ad
ministration wage board.
The statement released by the
board explains provisions of the
farm wage ceiling set by the gen
eral farm wage stabilization reg
ulation, special wage ceilings, in
dividual adjustments, and pro
visions for enforcement of the
ceilings. Copies of the statement
are available at the county
agent's office.
The general regulation pro
vides that salaries and wages of
agricultural laborers may be in
creased up to $2400 a year with
out approval, unless a specific
wage ceiling has been set by the
War Food administration. The
$2400 per year has been defined
by the regulation to mean $200
a month, or the equivalent week
ly, hourley (85 cents in most
cases), piecework rate, or com-,
parable basis. Board and room,
houses, or anything else of value
must be included in figuring sal
aries or wages, the statement ex
plains. The same salary or wace rate
for the same type of work for
me similar period or season
made lawfully between Decem
ber 9, 1942, and December 9,
1943, may be paid without ap
proval even though the compen
sation is more than $2400 a year.
An employer wno established a
new job classification after De
cember 9, 1943, may pay the max
imum rate paid within the local
area for the year preceding De-
cemoer , isaj, ior mat joo Clas
sification. Applications for individual ad
justments for farmers wishing
to pay rates in excess of $2400
a year may be made on forms
available in the county extension
office.
The wage stabilization office
will investigate cases of non
compliance and will enforce com
pliance, the statement points
out. Speeial wage ceilings may
be established by the WFA when
ever a majority of the producers
of any crop in any given area
request the help of .the Oregon
Wage board.
