At Tannenberg and again, at the Mazurian lakes both In East Prussia, they were t?o de cisively beaten by the Germans that they were never again able to be much of a threat. .j But r that was because their leadership was poor and their equipment meager. There was even then nothing wrong with the Russlun soldier, who time and again Blood and died fighting with practically his bare hands. II was Russian czarlst govern ment, not Russian courage, that was bankrupt.

For many years it. was third in importance, being exceeded only by agriculture and lumbering. Now it is a very poor fourth, or, very probably, even lower in rank if income fig ures for the past year were available. Yet it remains a sizable industry, providing full or part time employment to several thousand people. Its physical assets, according to a report by the interim fisheries com mittee of the state legislature amount to from $15 million to $20 million. But the tourist crop in Oregon, as pointed out by Gover nor Snell in his message to tho state legislature, amounts to about $50 million annually and should be doubled after the war. If it became necessary to choose between one or the other, tho tourist industry would seem to have the edge. But we believe it is possible to have both,, if the commer cial fishing industry is forced to cease robbing the state of xine ol its major tourist resources goou sports lishing streams and to put into practice scientific methods of re search, conservation and propagation. We believe it is possible to restore the fishing industry to its high place, if we replace destructive policies, followed for so many years, with practices which do not have total extinction as their ultimate goal. The report of the interim committee, in which continuing appropriations is recommended, confines itself almost entire ly to the Columbia river. Coastal streams, aside from the Columbia, are scarcely mentioned. Whether this resulted from oversight or was purposely done, we do not know. But certainly it would have been a most sorry picture had the legislature been given an over-all picture. The true story is found in an appendix of schedules which lists the commercial catches of various species of fish for each year from 1928 through 1943. This is very revealing reading. It shows, for instance, that in recent years the catch of spring Chinook salmon the species which furnishes food to keep our streams supplied with trout, steelhead and other game fish besides salmon has amounted on coastal streams to only ONE-TENTH as much as the the Columbia river catch. In other woi'ds, NINE-TENTHS of the spring Chinook run is in the Columbia river, while all other coastal streams in Orecon. COMBINED, yield only ONE-TENTH. Yet for Rap at Basketball :; Officials in Games Here Draws Reply Bone Crusher Billed On Roseburg Mat Program PL MM By CHARLES' V. STANTON We dont mind an excited ath letic coach "squawking" about of ficial decisions during the heat of a contest. We have at times "razzed the umpire" ourselves. But when a coach rushes Into public print to alibi his team's defeat by placing the blame oni officials, we feel it is time the! olflclals had their Inning. Virg, Klngslcy, coach of the Junction City high school basket ball team, which played in Rose burg, January 19, is quoted by Dick Htrite, sports editor of the i Eugene Register-Guard as rank-1 ing a prolonged howl about the: officiating at the game played on the Roseburg court. Strlte quotes Klngsley as say ing: "We allowed Roseburg to come into the league as a mat ter of courtesy, and the least they can do is furnish certified officials." He claimed one of his j men was disqualified by a foul which should have been called on a Roseburg player, charged pil ing up, and declared his (earn had taken a physical beating. . Rough Games Staged. Two particularly rough games have hppn nlaved on thr Rnnohnrff court this season, one with E'u-I gene High school, league lead ers, who won by a margin of two points, and the other with Junction City.

But we ask in all seriousness, why should the state ot Ore gon be deprived of a great tourist resource, when that re source amounts to less than ONE-TENTH of the total com mercial production and, at the same time, could be rebuilt in the space of a few years, WUHOl L COM TO THE STATE, to a point where it would serve both pur poses? We realize, as we have said previously, that some help must be given the Columbia river. The industry is dealing there with problems of high dams, irrigation and pollution, in addition to those caused by its own folly. We would not deny a measure of state assistance, within reasonable limits, to the industry on the Columbia. be required to pay out good money to help the fishing indus- j ij;" geJv the Nift" try destroy the recreational values of our coastal streams ; when those streams could produce millions of tourist dol-1 lars without expenditure of one cent of public money?
