BIUTISH .tfqops, advancing .Into western BURMA, have taken the Jap base at Tiddim, from which the little yellow men launched thelr unsuccessful at tempt to invade India, For three days the British have been bom barding by sea and air the Jap held Ntcobar Islands, which screen the Singapore strait from the west. , It may be, you see, that we and the British are moving against the Jap SIMULTANEOUSLY from east and west. The monsoon rains are about due to end. rliE news from Europe is scanty as to detail, but HIGH ly SIGNIFICANT. . . The Russians coming from the Fast appear to be something like SO miles OVER THE BORDER INTO EAST PRUSSIA. The Ger mans describe It as a "grand-scale breakthrough at all costs," and say It Is backed by tremendous force, Including at least 500 tanks. At the same time the Germans report a NEW Russian offensive from the Narew river In Poland, tdmod at Danzig which, if suc cessful would cut East Prussia off entirely from Germany. " (All these reports come from the na.is. The Russians are re maining ominously silent. Their custom is to fight first and talk afterward.) ALSO, the Russians are attack ing Czechoslovakia over the Carpathian passes. Czechoslo vakia is conquered German ter ritory HIGHLY 1NDUSTRAI.1Z ED. The great Skoda works have always been among Europe's most imoprtant munitions plants. Czechoslovaklan industry has been turned wholly to German uses. Its loss would he a hard blow. ON the western front, Aachen is In our hands. British and American armies are strlldne EASTWARD out of the Nijinegen I salient. In the Schclde pocket, the German garrison has been re-1 duced from 5,000 to l.noo. and tin-1 Canadians are within a mile and; a half of the German guns that ! have been KEEPING IS iiU'l j OF ANTWERP. j Antwerp, right behind our lines j In Holland, is the port we need! to solve the problem of supplying I an all-out offensive against nonh-' rrn Germany. crn front there is a note of sup l pressed excitement suggesting that something BIG Isn't far off. We can't forgot that only a few weeks of fighting weather at the host are left there. If something big is in (he wind, it will hap pen soon. T HIS Is the grand strategy that is suggested by the news: We and the British will strike THE COUNTY MANAGER By Charles THE second measure wiiich 1 jNov. 7 is a proposed constitutional amendment "autho rizing change to managerial form of county government." Many voters will make the mistake of thinking a .favor able vote would provide a manager for their own county. Such is not the case. Before a county manager form of government could be established in any county it would be necessary for the voters of that county "to pass upon the specific issue. The proposed amendment would only au thorize the legislature to sot manager form C0U.LD be might want it. If this amendment is adopted we need not have a county manager in Douglas county, stance, should want to change its pattern of government, the voters in Lane county would have that privilege. ,lhe county manager and commission form would call for the election by the people of commissioners. The manager could ue either appointed by the voters, this .matter to bo which will, if the measure is lish proper procedure. The manager would take over all of the duties for which wc now elect an assessor, cleric, treasurer, county judge, etc., and would take over the administrative job as a single officer supervising all departments. It is contended by proponents that the commission-manager system for county governments would be more efficient and economical than the existing pattern. Whether any county aaopis the plan, after it is provided, is entirely up to the voters within each individual county. There is no infringement upon the right ment. In fact, the people are given greater latitude in selecting the type of county business administration they prefer. As passage of the amendment would result in no change in county government until the people of the county, where a change might be proposed, so ordered, we believe passage of the amendment is justified. The Key to Prosperity John C. Watson, president ,of the New York State Coun cil of Retail Merchants, hits asked the War Production board to supply newspapers with more paper as soon as possible after the close of the European conflict. "Both nroductinn and .distribution will bog down if the merchandise that iai manufactured is not sold," Watson told the WPB. "It will not be sold unless the merchant is provided with the oppor tunity to advertise."' We never expected we would live to see the day in the newspaper business when we would be forced to reject re quests for advertising space and be required to turn away subscribers. Through long habit we always produce an 'advqrtising sales talk at every possible opportunity. 'Im agine our embarrassment when, a few days ago, we "sold" an advertiser a fine display job and theu .discovered we didn't have space to run his advertisement on the day he wanted" it. But the News-Review is confident the American people will insist upon a future in which free enterprise will be given opportunity to maintain a high level of prosperity. We believe it so strongly, we are investing heavily in ma chinery and equipment which we anticipate will be neces sary in the new era of business and industrial expansion. Of course, we cannot get af present all of the equipment we desire and will not be able to obtain many items, needed to expand our business, until after the war. But we are1 getting what is now obtainable. We have installed hundreds of dollars worth of new typo' faces for use by our display advertisers. We are greatly 11 111 I'iriitir mil mw. .A .n .... .1 ..1... l ir i "i vjiiki"viiiK uujiiiriiuom;. we nave a marvel; of a typesetting machine and a material maker on order. We believe in the future of America. We believe we' can make an important contribution to that future and we! propose to be in a position to do the best (xissible job. 1 Advertising is the key to prosperity.

Lila Mac Isom, 14-year-old Green Guard of Roseburg, and Donald Wilson, 14, of Tenmile, were both awarded 5th place prizes upon submitting their sea son's fire prevention activity rec ords and a theme written on their experiences in the Oregon woods. Miss Isom has been a prize winner in this contest for the past three seasons. She was cited earlier this year for meritorious services in the suppression of a fire. Her squad of Green Guards has been headed by Ruth Mor gan, who is now serving with the Women's army corps. The interest displayed by these youngsters is typical of. 20,000 Green Guards who have aided materially in the public program to reduce the losses from man made fires, in our farms, fields and forests. The 5th prize awarcs consist of a choice between So in war sav ing stamps or a like value in a Green Guard sweater.
