THE Russians are converging on, Budapest frdm, thrive direc tions, and are practically up to the city's outskirts. Moscow re polls say panic Is sweeping the Germaris and Hungarians left In the city. The huhgnrlan puppet government fled three' days ago. A GERMAN broadcast says a TREMENDOUS Russian of-, enslvd Is in the making' In' Po-' Idtid. Thb time tor sii'cH a ttiOvb Is getting about right, with the grbtind Hardening under tile iron grip Ot the Polish winter. J IN Leyle (Philippines) Ormoc falls to our beach-landed 77th dlvlsjon. Ormoc is a PORT which the Japs needed (they stilt have a small pdrt at Palompon, 18 ihlli'S to the hoi'thwost). . MacArthur says the Japs around Ormoc have been trapped and compressed into a narrow hbeket by three U. S. cblthhns, imd are being destl-oyed with lit tle opportunity for efectlve re taliation. The dispatches add, however, thai the battle of Leyle Isn't over, and thcere Is every Indica tion that the Japs will fight for every Inch or ground left. WITH their mitlh supply port gone1 and their men trapped in the hills, all the rules in the OLD book of War say they should surrender. The Inhut lenity In doctrinated Japs aiid lia.is have thrown away the old rule book. Their new rules call for dying In their tracks. F ROM the standpoint of the generation NOW BEING BORN, It may be lettor so. A Germany iihd a Japan whipped to the POINT OK EXTINCTION will stay whipped. Carthage, when finally DESTROYfeo TOTALLY by Rome, STAYED destroyed. THERE'S Chinese a new hole In the n ew s. Chungking says the Jiaps have beert slopped, turned back and THROWN OUT of KwolrhoW ( pronounced (uny jo) province. The Implication Is that the new reinforcements th.it may have come from the com munist border have turned the trick. (Keeping fingers crossed Is wise. We've had good news fol lowed by BAD news from China iiften before. The tendency Of '-censorship has been to PRETTY UP the picture.) WE learn that the Brilish have sent a fleet to the PACIFIC to operate Under Nlmltz's com mand. It Is Kald to be big enough to handle the WHOLE Jap fleet I all by itself (If the Jap fleet could j he caught all in one place). Tills is in addition tn the big fleet they're keeping In the Indian ocean. - IHWIII I HE Japs announce the . death ol another adoiiral bnnfrlnt r A . CPAlSC C A CDAhB By Charles THE New Deal Administration, which has been successfully fooling a large part of the people1 for li years, and promises to do so for four more years is in the midst of another of its "vvool-bullitig" efforts irt trylhg to double the rale of social security payments'. Through the Usual. tactics of creating public Misunderstanding and Confusion, it Is try ing to bypass the real issue, which is one of taxation. Social security taxes are popular. The recent electioH campaign, in which both candidates favored broadening so cial security benefits, provided ample evidence that old age insurance is desired by the great majority of people. Faced with the hecessity of raising more hidhey for cur rent extravagances of goverrirrierit, the administration Is looking for sources of revenue which can be tapped without arousing complaint from taxpayers. Popularity of social security opehs the way for a surplus of money without incurring political animosity. But the fact remaihs that whether money is raised by direct levy, through income or other sources, or is obtained by doubling the social security fate, It is still a tax. Malcolm Epley, writing in the Klamath Falls Herald and Mews, says : Speaking of a consciousness of public responsibility, we have always Had the Idea it Is good for alt citizens to have to pay a few taxes, and to know that they are paying them. Hidden or Indirect taxes may raise a lot of money, but they do not make the taxpayer realize that government costs rnoHey. When he hits to help dig up the money, he will lend his bit to the public opinion that demands that people who spirit) that cash shduld da It economically ahd efficiently flight there is thd nub bf this social security contro versy. The adihinistratidlt knows the people have gone about as fat- as they intend to go in the riiatter of national debt, they are cortlplaliiiiig about income tax rates. If forced to dig tip1 more Hioiiey in direct taxes they will like neither the taxes ilor ttiose Who impose them. If, oil the other hand, the taxpayer Jiays an indirect tax, particularly if it is for' a pUfpose lit Which he believes, he will not be Jiearly so uiihaiipy abdllt the affair. Sb the Inipressloii Is given the public that an increased social security tax fate1 is a part of the program to broaden benefits, extend coverage ahd create ample reserves, all of Which is ptife fiction. There Is lib reserve fuittl. Ail Inoney raised by social s6 cuHly takes goes iiito goverritileilt bonds and the cash is (tsed 'to mdel bfteralirig ixperises. The social security lurid, it is true; holds a lot of bonds double, in fact, the amount expected but bonds are not cash. When money is paid oUt it must be obtained from the general fund. Ndi- does doubling the tax rate have anything to do with extending benefits. IlUt if money is hot raised by a hidden tax, such as an increased social security rate, soine Other method bf taxation jiuiW)e Uiied' The administration, Which will never ,t;a! a spade a spadc'i if it fan term such tool a "long handled in strument with which to dig,' fears that if It should let the pUblic in bn the fact it Is simply piling bn more direct taxes it would suffer popularity losses. Unlike a rose, a tax by any other name smells sweeter. the total bf killed adhiirals an nounced by them since May 7 to 73. Slltce May 23, they've an nounced the death df 18 generals. It sounds rt little screwy. May be there lias been a tot ot harl kill. Maybe their new admirals and generals art? better than the dead ones. s lliELIGHTS from Europe: The French and Russians (Do Gaulle and Stalin) have sighed a 20-year alliance treaty, similar to that signed by Britain and Russia. Count Sforzu I stormy petrel of present Italy) says the reason the British don't like him Is that thev brought heavy pressure on him to accept Vlctbt- "Erhanual as KING, hut lib refused. E GAULLE, bralsinu his at complishtnents In Moscow concludes with: "Long live SOVIET Russia." Whatever he means, getting France hack in to the European picture Will he helpful. The French PEOPLE, whose leadership hris often been BAD. are a good Influence. EEDLNG more guns, more more fighting equip shells. mcM bf all kinds, we're lighten ing up on draft regulations, the purpose being to force hiole ef fort Inlo war work. The simple. UNPALATABLE truth is that here on the home frolit we've been IlAvtNG TOO MUCH. Modern war NEEDS a nation's TOTAL production but. of course, Hie civilians huve to live, so SOME production has to be diverted to the needs ot the home front. The point Is that If the civilians have tbo much the fighting forces ill have too Utile. T 'O cite Just one or two Instances, RACE TRACKS. NIGHT CLUBS, etc. here oh the home front, especially In tlie big elites, have been breaking all records. The energy thus expended. hli 'i i8 Wasted srt far as hehi rtR t0 ncl . jitps m,H thp r.r. mans Is concerned, would IN IT- FKI.F have made A lot of the shells we nOw need so agilely on the wfstern ttoiit. wolider quite a little how the ' r.ernian nisngpc tn V. Stanton liberal haul from the public's KEEP UP their war production in view of the tact that their potential productive resources are so much smaller than ours. The brutal truth Is that they are putting MUCH MORE of their TOTAL EFFORT Into war production. 'E home-fronlers, of course. don't like to think of these things. They aren't PLEASANT. But we may be quite sure that our men in the fox Moles are thinking ot them. ! NCWS OF OUR MENwWOMlN IN UNIFORM mrwMirnnassBgcagBariiii at Mrs. William J.

C., r3dc. i)--As this is written, the situation with respect to the ro-drgatilza-tlon of the state department has not been cleared. We havd A Hew secretary of state, but he dotfs.not have an undersecretary nor does he have assistants. Appointments to fill these places were made by the president one under-secre-tary and three assistant secre taries. Such appointments must be raiifled by the senate. When the four names were presented. the senate sent all of them back to committee for further study and hearings. Without doubt all four names will again be sub mitted to the sertate durihg. the coming week. a- The general impression 're garding the senate's refusal to ap prove immediately the foul-1 as sistants for Stettinlus is that each bf the four had a few senators opposed to him. The total num ber bf those opposed to some ne or two or three of the nominees Was of course, sufficient to pre vent favorable action upon the four as a bi-oud. Apparently Mac- Leish had the most oppositlhon although edch of the other three came in for a share, lite vote was 37 to 27. It is unfortunate that this diffi culty has arisen at this tithe. OUr eoUntry. Is in a serious situation in its forelgh affairs. We heed tlie greatest possible unity aiid effi ciency in our state department, nut we uo not nave n. Meanwhile routine legislation is being ground out in both houses. Tlie house will likely fin ish evervlhing that Is scheduled hv- Ihrt nnH nf novl ii-nhlc llm. l. .

Both houses passed the hill td iiiaiiitaln the rate 01 social secun ity taxes at one per ccnl. It is Known that tlie president is 'dis pleased with this action and mav veto the bill. It he chooses to dd so. the president can keep con gress in session until the 2W oy delaying his full ten days be' ore signing or vetoing the bill, litis bill passed the the house by 1 3 to 1 record vote. Yesterdav the senate passed It by a vote of 17 to 19. There is clearly enough support tor tne 0111 to pass it over the president s veto. Last week I mentioned the above bill. Since it Is quite evi dent that the bill will become law. I want to recent that the jrcczmg ot tne tux rate does not in any way affect the social se curity benefit payments. It will not impair the fund and It will not endanger the future of the social security program.

The ONLY effect of the law will be td save you frott having an additional one pet" cent deducted from yoUr paycheck if your em ployment Is under social security. Employers likewise will not have to pay the additional one per cent. . The bill by Congressman Bar-i-elt of Wybming to abolish the Jackson Hole national monu ment, which was created by ex ecutive ordei- early in 1943, was passed by the house. Although the bill was locai to Wyoming in this Instance, we people of Ore gon had a very definite interest in it. If the executive is permit ted to go brt making largtf, areas Into parks (a monument is' about the same .as a national park), we shall likely see such a move in our state. I actively suppbrted the Barrett bill. Both houses recently passed the postwar highways bill, and it Is now In conference, the confer ence finished its work yesterday, but the report will not be avail able until Monday: I am inform ed, however, that the total Sum, one billiort, five hundred million dollars, was agreed upon and that the program will begin in the fiscal year after the war ends. Another point of agreement was that not more than one-third of right of way cost will be borne by the federal government. It Is not anticipated that either the house or senate will disagree With the conference report. In other words, the final bill as whipped Into shape by the coh terees will quite likely be accept teiees win oui eg and will bc come law.
