The air attack In Norway could be a diversion to fool the Ger mans. ALL this, please remember, is the purest kind of guesswqrk. But the time is here to hit the Germans at every possible point.' We have large forces available. Some such thing could be. WE'VE CROSSED THE LOIRE somewhere between Nantes and Angers, apparently and are heading Into southern France. Bordeaux Is our logical objective. The Germans pulled out of the coast below Bordeaux the other day, presumably be cause they were needed else where. fOH whatever it may mean, Churchill, U. S. Assistant Secretary of War Patterson and General Somervell, head of Amer ican supply services, are in ITALY. IT is rather generally believed that an American blitz spear head is pushing north hum Le Mans to GET BEHIND the Ger mans massed in the Caen area. Instead of getting out, dis patches from our headquarters In France report that Marshal von Kluge (German commander in France) Is reported "recklessly throwing the bulk of his west wall forces Into the area below Caen, despite the development of un allied encirclement threat." German prisoners taken there say thejl have orders to withdraw ONLY on authorization from Hit ler's headquarters. OVER and over again in Russia Hitler has ordvred his troops to stand and die hut GIVE NO GROUND. Over and over, they have stood and died. They're standing and dying in the Baltic states now. Her fuehrer is appar ently ordering them to stand and die at Caen. One gels unavoidably the im pression of a frightened and shivering little man cowering in his Bcrchlesgaden hideout while he Issues frantic orders to his armies lo stanil and die lo keep him from being CAUGHT AND HANGED. THE Russians are pulling t lie old one-two punch tactics lof which they are masters) on the Germans In East Prussia. They first aimed a thrust along East Prussia's Baltic coast. As soon as nazi forces had been drawn there to MEET IT, they hit with TWO ARMIES from the south, in Poland. German armor, which had been massed a lung the Baltic to stop the Russians there, was shifted FEVERISHLY to the south to meet the NEW danger. EVERY, tennis player knows that when he can get his opponent running frantically from one side of the court to the other, trying lo meet well-placed shots, he has him where he WANTS HIM, and the end Isn't fur off. It looks like Hitler Is getting tn ,YY E 5T n.Q LCI DAY "GERMANY WILL By Charles "AN the day of her surrender, V this war." Such is the startling statement made by Ben Ames Wil liams, noted novelist and reporter. Williams says: Germany wqn World war 1. When the armistice comes, she will have won this one. Even unconditional surrender is only a phrase, without real meaning. Not peace treaties hut the ability to capitalize the fruits of battle, distinguishes the winner of a war from the Joser. In Europe before 1939, Germany had the largest cohesive population; she had the largest industrial plant; she pos sessed at least half of Europe's total "worth" in people and plant. Since 1939, she has increased that proportion. From the point of view of population, she has killed at least one non- , German for every German who has been killed; she has transported hundreds of thousands more; and she has un doubtedly won among the conquered peoples many converts. By using to the break-down point the Industries of con quered countries tributary feeders to Germany's industrial needs, her industrial predominance in Europe is greater now than it was before 1939. Only an honest recognition of this fact can make possible the framing of a peace which will deprive her of victory. The nazis already are preparing for another war. They know they are whipped, but they do not propose to remain beaten any longer than it takes them to organize another attempt to conquer the world. As pointed out by Williams, the Germans are destroying industrial resources and manpower in conquered nations. Be cause of her vandalism she will nation than those about her. Germany also is preparing nazi party is determined to of defeat and national economic disaster. Germony is to be come the "hoqdlum" nation of the world. Her youth have been trained to be beasts. All trace of morality has been eliminated from their culture. They have no tions. They have been steeped trines. They will never be whipped in spirit. Although over whelmed by superior force, they will retain the belief that by trickery, sabotage and destructiveness they will be able to win next time. Beaten by force of arms, the nazis will go underground. While their political "front" cooperates in international af fairs, the hidden forces will be endeavoring to destroy. We have in allied hands today hundreds of thousands of German prisoners. The majority of these men are still nazis. Theyare arrogant, vain, boastful men. They have been cap tured, but they have not been killed. When the war is over we will send them back to their homeland to become inter national hoodlums. Hitler is even now stamping out the last vestiges of anti nazi leadership. The Prussian guard which through centuries has' placed 'military above political prowess is being wiped cut by internal purge as well as by allied bullets. Postwar Germany will remain nazi, even though hidden hands control the reins. The determination of the peace will be difficult. There should be no place at the peace table for idealism. The question, therefore, .irises: Should the United Slates be represented by a man who knows the criminal mind and who, as a former prosecuting attorney, knows methods of dealing with criminals, or by one who is a great humanitarian, a missionary crusader and an idealistic do-gooder? It is our nature, as a nation, lo be tolerant and forgiving, to be helpful and sympathetic. But at the same time we must be practical. You can't convert swine to the religion of humanitarianism. that point now. SOME significant statistics: In the -18 hours up to mid night Thursday, our Americans in France took more than 10,000 German prisoners. This is begin ning to look like demoralization. From ti o'clock Saturday up to mid -afternoon, allied fighter -bombers In France destroyed 13 locomotives and 1039 railroad cms. In the week ending Satur day, they have destroyed or dam aged 587 locomotives and Will railroad cars. In a war of movement, where transportation means everything, that is something.

Our Susie's gone to the moun tains, so with your kind permis sion and tolerance Dial Log will be taken over by SS-2 for this week, and we'll try to keep you "hep" to what's steamin' on the air waves. A' glance at Tuesday night's schedule shows that two of Roseburg's finest musicians will entertain you for fifteen minutes each Esther Geddes plays Music You Remember at 6:30 from the console of the or gan at the Indian theater and Annaloris returns after several month's absence to bring you more of that swell piano music when you have a date with her at 8:15. The Waves show, "Some thing for the Girls," at 7:45 will appeal to the masculine listeners, too, since It stars that favorite singer, Kate Smith. Moving . along to Wednesday now, we think you'll agree that your radio day is not complete unless you hear cheery Jack Berch and The Three Suns at 10:15 and The Wheel at 11. This This is being written with one of SS-2's ears bent toward Open House, a daily feature at 1:15. It's fifteen minutes of quiet mu sicthe kind especially appealing to most of us, and interesting anecdotes, some sad, some gay. A good time for a bit of relaxa tion from your morning's work and the luncheon dishes, so try spending it listening to Open House. Your time won't be was ted! An excellent army show at 1:30 in the afternoon which is a regular Wednesday afternoon program at 1:30 and one we trust is a "must-listen-to" on your schedule. Believe we should all be very thankful for the grand tal ent we have on these army shows, it's tops! Wednesday night is drama night at 1490, starting at 6:30 with ever-popular First Nighter. Up to now no advance publicity, hut believe we'll have it for you tomorrow so vou'll know what to anticipate and enjoy. Here's a bit of interesting info, about Wally Maher, narrator on Main Line heard at 8 o'clock: Seems as if he isn't just an actor read ing script lines when he says, "we of the railroad." The "we" is meant with all sincerity since besides his part on Main Line and other radio programs he works a full-day shift at the rail road depot in Glendale, Calif. Bulldog Drummond at 8:30 winds up the night's drama fare no title as yet but bet It'll be a chiller-diller if there ever was one! But to be doubly sure of not missing anything, just keep your ear on 1490 throughout the dav and night for news and com mentators, music and drama.
