It could' hardly be interpreted as other than an admission that In the last desperate emergency, they would prefer to see us and the British in Berlin first, rather than the Russians. BY one of those mental pro D cesses that can't be justified by logical argument, this writer b still puzzled by Churchill's furious warning to the Germans In his last speech to the general effect that It will be bettor for them to surrender NOW because the British and the Americans are likely to prove MODERATE Victors. It certainly sounded like a statement that It will go hard with them If they wait until they are conquered by the Russians.) WHAT happens at the Oder as sumes importance in the news because we have been led to believe that this river has been made Into something of an east tin RHINE. Germans and foreign slave la bor battalions are supposed to have been busy for months (there are even intimations that it has been going on for years) trans forming the Oder Into a great de fense line behind which the nazls will retire in the east as they have retired behind the Rhine In the west. If this is true, and If the Rus sians should push on across with comparatively little delay, It would be revealing. What It would appear to reveal would be total lack of German ability to stop the Russian push. THE dispatches say the Oder Is FROZEN. How thick the ice may be is not stated. It might be thick enough to bear up under heavy Russian equipment. In that event, It would no longer be a water barrier. Time, of course, will toll as to all these things. Our eager minds tend to run ahead of the news in an effort to anticipate events. Tltis fighting in the cast is of pbviously IMMENSE significance. THE mystery of Luzon remains Unsolved. It, wouldn't be true to say that the fighting hasn't been heavy. In the two weeks since the Ling yen landing, our casualties have amounted to 3143, Including 657 killed. Jap casualties are esti mated at 14,000, of which half have been killed and the mere handful of 483 taken prisoner. Some 7,000 are estimated to have been wounded. One couldn't call two we'!:n of fighting in which jioarly 20,000 casualties have been suffered on both sides any Sun day school picnic. SI ill, we are almost to Clark field, halfway to Manila from Lingayon, without (apparently) encountering the Japs in any greater strength than on Saipan. What does It mean? Again time will tell. HE Wallace appointment as secrcatry of commerce has now been chewed over from every angle. Not much remains lo be said. MUCH remains lo be thought. Because of the great govern- I 1 AN INTERESTING JOB I ; ; I By Charles LME have a letter from a lady subscriber who writes the " kind of communication we like to receive. Commenting on our recent statements relative to the necessity of remov ing some comic strips, serial stories, political commenta tors and other features to meet newsprint shortages, she proceeded to tell us what she likes and what she dislikes in a newspaper. We are always interested in that kind of information, for, after all, we are trying to publish a newspaper which will be generally satisfactory to our subscribers. If we fail, we will not long continue in business. Our correspondent wouldn't mind if we tossed out all the comics. She skips serials and doesn't like sports news, al though she realizes that many people are interested in sports. She evidences a serious turn of mind when she asks for more Washington commentaries, more news of legislative affairs, and more "serious" reading. We believe there is only one business in the world which has a problem equal to that of the newspaper in catering to individual preferences of its patrons and that is the restau rant business. Just as every person has individual tastes in food, so every reader ha3 his or her ideas concerning how a newspaper should be published and what it should con tain. We hear it every day. news, another wants less. One reader will demand more detailed war news, while another will hold forth on the the ory that people don't like to read about the war and we shouldn't fill our newspapers the crossword puzzle and irate want to fight, while others will ask why we're wasting space with such n foolish thing. And so it goes. Uut we enjoy every bit of it. 1 We like to know what our subscribers are thinking. That's what makes the newspaper business so fascinating. The newspaper industry has spent millions of dollars in continuing studies to determine what people read, the fea tures they most unjoy, their reactions to advertising and all other subjects entering into the matter of publication. These studies accurately reveal public reading habits, and news papers try to give their customers an interesting package. We do not expect every item to be of interest to every reader.

BORN THIRTY YEARS TOO SOON BiSlyMTu.fi Out To Down Kiser, Coast Champion Billy '"Bustem" McEuin, the tough Texan cowboy, will be out to win over Jack Kiser Saturday night in the Roseburg armory. If McEuin can turn the trick he can probably force Kiser to place his belt on the block. The popu lar champion has other ideas, however, i as ho dislikes to put up the belt If he can keep his numerous challengers at bay by defeating them in non-title skir mishes. Kiser hasn't defended the continuing the match until the referee slopped it. All of which adds up to a blond and thunder skirmish for Saturday night.. In the first match, which' Is also hilled for one hour or two-out-of-three falls, Ernie Piluso will tangle with Tarznn Polvin. I'iluso is tin' fiery Portlander whom many Roseburg fans will remember. Polvin has proven himself a worthy opponent and this match should be a crowd pleaser. I Pans are reminded that the .

At the pres ent it Is planned to have a match every two weeks, but If the fans turn mil and want one every week it can probably he arranged.
