lalod that near Aachen the bodies
of dead Germans were so thick
as to hamper the advance of our
infantry and tanks and the Ger
mans, unfortunately, aren't suf
fering ALL the losses. .
History tells , us that it Is fight
ing such as this that ends wars.
When we've killed enough Ger
mans to BREAK the,.-German
power of resistance, tho erid of
the war will be here. '
TURNING back . (o the . homo
front, the city of Moscow, in
daho, officially licensed slot ma
chines recently with the thrifty
idea of raising a part of Its neces
sary revenues in that manner.
The Moscow council's action got
before Idaho's attorney-general,
who disposed of tho matter in
these words:
"It is impossible to LICENSE
ANYONE to VIOLATE THE
LAW."
THAT is lo say, you can't
LEGALLY do that which Is
illegal.
Rather clear thinking for these
muddled times.
A.
NYONE who travels around
i this country knows that slot
machines are quite widely wink
ed at. It is only another step to
the Moscow council's thought
GENEROUS contributions to the National War Fund are
being received in many parts of the county, Charles Em
ery, chairman, report's. A general solicitation was started
in Roseburg today and will be continued until the entire
city has been thoroughly canvassed.
Here is a fund deserving of the greatest possible coopera
tion. It covers the needs of 30 individual beneficiaries, 22
of a national character and 8 operating within the state of
Oregon.
"The fact being overlooked by many persons is the
size of our task," the county chairman asserts. "Some people
Just get In the habit of doling out a dollar every time they
are solicited for any charitable or civic nurnnso Hut w.
cannot raise our quota through one dollar contributions
exclusively. Our quota is $18,700. Of course, if we could
reach every person in the county and we received a $1
contribution from every man, woman and child we would
have a little more than our goal. But we can't solicit every
one. People should bear in mind that their donations are
going to the support of 30 agencies- or organizations. In
the old days, when each agency conducted Its independent
solicitation, contributors gave a dollar or more to each.
Now they are combined In one single drive and are entitled
to be considered on the whole broad scale. Of course, we
want one dollar contributions from those who feel that
is the limit of their ability. But we should keep in mind
that we are aiding not one but thirty causes and should
give proportionately."
In a good many cities of the state a Community Chest
program Has been included with the National War Fund
drive. A similar plan has been advocated for Roseburg
ana vicinity for a coming year, but is not now being attempted.
Mr. Emery, however, has touched unon a subieet which
should be given consideration before we attempt a Commtl-
juvjr viirai unve simultaneously with the National War
f una.
Many residents of the city, particularly those in business,
are contacted almost continuously for contributions to nil
sorts of causes. As Mr. Emery has pointed out, many form
um careiess nanit ol simply passing out a dollar bill with
out stopping to give serious though to the worth of the
project .being supported. The number of careless givers
is greater man might be imagined. We use the word "care
less" without any intent of disparagement. We do not in
tend to convey any lack of generosity. In fact, the condi
tion indicates a sense of generosity, for a willingness to
contribute to anything that comes along is evidenced. A
business man usually is too busy to listen to a detailed ac
count of the purpose of tho solicitation. Hi. t; i
t.ble, so he "shells out" and goes on about his work.
:Tho current solicitation does not include the American
Red Cross, Salvation Army, Boy Scouts or Campfire girls.
Later financial campaigns will be conducted on behalf of
those organizations. Their work is vital to the commu
nity and they are entitled to well-filled treasuries. But it

Lieut. Shoemaker
In Unit That Tore
Gap in Nazi Wall
Lieutenant Samuel' J.' Shoemak
er, Roseburg, son of Mr. and Mrs.
S. J. Shoemaker, 417 E. Lane St.,
was a member of "The Annlhll
ators," who reported, "We blast
ed a gap in the Siegfried line for
General Patton's break-through
lunge Into Germany," according
to a dispatch from a U. S. Ninth
air force bomber base in the Eu
ropean theater.
Returning from the first Amer
ican medium bomber attack to
be made on the German home
land, crews reported: "We saw
masses of men and machines,
from Jeeps to heavy tanks, speed
ing along the roads that lead to
the Reich. At the 'All-Clear' sig
nal, following our attack, they
were set to swarm across tne de
fenses which we left in a pulver
ized condition.
Crews reported, according to
the air force headquarters, that
their 1,000 pound armor-piercine
bombs found their mark on large
gun emplacements, concrete pill
boxes, anti-tank traps and other
fomiclable stongpoints in that
section of the German defense
line.
Lieutenant Shoemaker was one
of the officers participating in the
