As these words are written, the clicking fingers of the tele types are silent, Indicating that all news available has been trans mitted. All we can do Is to wait for word from Admiral Nimitz. ... ATTEMPTING to reassure our selves during this nervous waiting period, wc'recafU' that the Jap radio has always talked a good war. It had us beaten at Midway until we began to hear from our side. There must be good reasons for our silence of our fleet rea sons having to do with the stra tegy of the battle. It Is wholly beyond belief that our command ers would conceal from us such a DISASTER as the Jap radio pictures. IN Europe, Hungary has finally collapsed. Regent Horthy (head of the government) sued for an armist ice. Immediately the nazlis In Hungary pounced upon him like wolves. Reports of what Is hap pening are confused. The Hun garians are said to be fighting among themselves and also fighting Germans. The Germans admit that Hor thy's bid for peace "has greatly damaged the (German) waging of the war." HUNGARY'S crumpling was ap parently much like Bulgaria's it was deferred until the Rus sians came in IRRESISTIBLE force. The battle on the Hungarian plains during the past week ap pears to have been a terrific one. The Russians knocked out 113 German tanks on Saturday. Mos cow gives the nine-day total of nazl tanks destroyed there as 1219. The time finally came, one guesses, when the Hungarians saw the jig was up, that Germany could no longer protect them, that they were in for bad trouble either way and decided that the Russians were more to be (ear ed than the Germans. Isn't any J til thing particularly creditable about their quitting -but it POKS help our side. Wade Werner, AP correspond tilt, cabling from London, says: "It all (the Hungarian collapse) ndds up to a melting of the bar rier between the red army and a great drive past Buila'st to Vienna and a possible FINAL DECISION IN THE EAST." IN Finland, the Russians have 1 t.-iken IVtxHmti bv combined sea and land assault. They havej('"v Identified highway junction which Pravda in Moscow descri!es as the "key to Norway." Thus Germany's satellites the NORTH nre beginning crumble. to THE battle of Aachen continues in undiminished fury. Three tunes in 24 hours the Germans liave ripnrpr Attacked ntir Amerl- STUDY THE MEASURES By Charlei OREGON voters will be faced by a formidable list of nine initiative and referendum measiifes when they go to the polls Nov. 7. Six are in the to the state constitution. Six people by the legislature, one two are proposed by initiative We propose in this column from time to time, prior to election day, to discuss the the ballot not that we feel rather that we may stimulate who will be called to vote Nov. 7. We do not anticipate unanimous agreement with the recommendations we expect to make. In fact, these meas ures would not be brought before the voters unless disagree ment existed. But because state constitution or imposition of new statutes, if approved, the several proposals deserve careful consideration. Measure 300-301 would change the existing double liability law affecting stockholders in banks by authorizing federal insurance of deposits as an alternate means for securing bank depositors. Measure 302-303 is an enabling act which would set up methods whereby counties could adopt managerial form of government. Passage of this measure would not directly institute the county manager plan in any county, but would permit the voters of any county to install such system if desired. Measure 304-305 would authorize the "Oregon War Vet erans' Fund," empowering the state to issue bonds equal to three per cent of the assessed valuation of all property in the state, and from the money realized by sale of bonds to ; make loans to veterans of World War II on farms andj homes. This act is similar in character to the provision .made for veterans of the first World War. ' Measure 306-307 would modify the existing amendment denying voting privileges to insane persons or persons eon victed of crime by making it possible for the right of fran chise to be restored by act of the legislature or by initiative. Measure 308-309 would authorize a tax levy of two-tenths of a mill on all taxable property of the state for the purpose of providing educational benefits to veterans of World War II who were residents of Oregon for one year prior to en trance into military service. Measure 310-311 is the recurring sales tax, this time dis-j guised as a "tax on retail sales of tangible personal prop- .crty. Defeated several times in previous elections, it is i back again with a proposed three-mill levy'to be earmarked 20 per cent for old age assistance, GO per cent for property tax reduction and 20 per cent for common school support. . Measure 312-313 The Burke Bill would place all for- tified wines under control of the state liquor stores. Measure 314-315 is the proposal instituted by educational lenders requiring the State of Oregon to levy taxes sulTi- cieututo provide not less than 45 cents per child per day oi l attendance for the preceding school year. Eight million! dollars of the fund would be applied to reduction of property I lax levies in local districts until 1950. Measure 316-317 is the highly controversial $60 at 60 or "Little Townsend plan," a proposal to levy a tax of not less than three nor more than five per cent on gross incomes, payable monthly, to provide funds with which to pay $60 ii-jonjthjy" o pdrsons of more than 60 years of age and more than 18 'years of age if totally and permanently disabled or blind. cans there ferociously-but ap parently are losing- rather ttan gaining ground as lae dispatches say we have CLOSED the escape corridor out of the city to the east that the Germans have been keeping open. IT is a fair guess that Germany (Hitler, in fact, since he seems now to be the commander-in-chief as well as the political head of the nal state) has decided to make Aachen another Stalingrad. Hitler knows with the particu larly clear vision of hindsight that the frightful losses he suf fered in TRYING to take Stal ingrad bled him w hite and lost him the war. So (presumably) his madman's brain has told him that the thing to do is to MAKE US DO LIKEWSE at Aachen. WE'RE closing in slowly on the port of Antwerp, whose pos session will materially shorten our supply line to the north Ger man front. At Motz, we've finally given up trying to take Fort Pliant, whose complicated under ground defenses have proved too costly for us to take, even with modern bombs and artillery, t We'll probably outflank it In the Russian manner.)

OREGON Marine Kills More Than 60 Japs in One Day's Fighting PELILEU, Palau Islands (AP) (Delayed) Marine Private First Class Arthur J. Jackson, 200 pounds ot one-man gang from Portland, Ore., killed more than 60 Japs here in a single day of fighting. . .. . He rolled up the Impressive total while his platoon was at tacking Jap defense positions on the southern end of the island.' In eight hours, the platoon de stroyed or neutralized 40 Jap strongpoints, Jackson single handedly accounting for 15 of them. His technique was simple: With or without covering fire, he charged the Jap bunkers, plac ed the muzzle of his Browning automatic rifle in the fire slits or observation apertures and sprayed the interior. If the desperate enemy tried a dash for safetv. Jackson was ready. "He mowed 'em down in windrows," one marine describ ed it. Jackson, known as "Bull" to fel low marines because of his size and tremendous strength, climax ed his one-man gang perform ance a few days later when, arm ed only with a splintered rifle stock, he clubbed to death a Japa nese soldier who attacked him with grenades, and bayonet. The Portland marine was in his foxhole when the Jap and a com panion charged him. He killed the first eneTny soldier with a burst from his Browning, but the sec ond threw a grenade which shat tered the rifle. Jackson dodged the Jap's bayo net, grabbed his opponent by the neck and battered him to the ground with the stock of the broken rifle. 7:30 Musical Scrapbook. 7:45 Songs of Good Cheer, Copco. 8:00 Return Address, APO. 8:30 Republican Central State Committee.
