Susukl, Japan's new mystery premier, quoted by the Japanese news agency Domei, says: "I do not expect America's war efforts against Japan to change because of Mr. Roosevelt's death." , WE arc naturally curious as to this man Truman, who Is now our loader. We feel that as yet we do not know him. We want to know him. So we watch his every word for a hint as to what he may be. In his words spoken in Wash ington Monday moriflng, in his first message to the congress and to the world, there Is much to re; assure us and nothing to upset us. IN Europe, the sands are running low In the nazl hourglass, The Germans announce as this is written that the Russians have started their long-awaited all-out assault from the Oder, along a 100-mile front, east of Berlin. It appears to be expected that the led army will outflank the city both to the north and to the south, effecting Junctions With us lind the British on both sides, and to Isolating the German capital. What news wo have from the . Oder comes entirely from the rnomy. Moscow has nothing to say. HITLER breaks his long silence to issue an order of the day 1o, his armies on the eastern .flint. . . He plays upon German fears of Russia. He says the "Jewish- foolshcvist arcli enemy . has launched his massed attack and is trying to destroy Germany and wipe out our people. Ho screams incoherently of German women and girls who are to be reduced to the status oi prostitutes, of chil tlren who are to be murdered and of the remainder of the German people who are to be led away to Siberia. What he is seeking, obviously enough, is to whip up the Ger man people to such a peak of frenzied fear that they will ALL rile in defense of him and his nazl crew. . It is a sickening exhibition. A DYING tiger lashes out with desperate last sweeps of its claws. In similar manner, the dying nazl beast strikes at one of our bridgeheads over the Elbe lit Magdeburg, driving our ad vanced force back to the western bank. We hold our other bridgehead over the Elbe and PUSH ON Jrom it. The Canadians reach the North tea, trapping the Germans left In Holland. The British are within two miles of Bremen. To tho south of Berlin, our Americans reach and pass Leipzig and push on toward Dresden. Knit her to the south, we approach to within n few miles of Nuernberg. The Russians drive on u; I ho Danube from captured Vienna. IN Italy, General Chirk (n nnunccs that the "last big b!i lie is beginning." The Germans in the Po valley fight with stubborn determination.- Our job is to SMASH them before they can get back to the mountain hideout. THE Russians are pushing west wjirrl across Moravia, nearini! Austcliiz and Brunn, wiping out the German-held, slave-operated Chechoslovakian war factories. We are hearing the Czechoslovak border from the west. ON Okinawa, recent dispatches report a notable decrease In the Jap artillery fire before Naha. Pur guns appear to be getting tho THE MIGHTY SEVENTH By Charles V. Stanton Douglas county, is facing a gigantic task in raising its assigned quota of $1,197,000 for the 7th War Loan. The task is doubly difficult because we must raise $740,000 through sales of Series E bonds to individuals 50 per cent more than in any previous campaign. There is no question of our ability to reach this goal. Bonds sufficient to overscribe the assignment could be sold if people who have money lying in banks would invest their idle funds in war bonds'.' We are particularly pleased to note that the Treasury department in preparing its advertising campaign for the 7th War Loan campaign is stressing the investment value of war bonds. We have previously expressed our opinion that sale of bonds could be greatly increased if the general public could be brought to realize that there is no better invest ment for the average individual, with modest earning power, than war bonds. Instead of basing advertising upon the sel fish appeal, the Treasury department, heretofore, has based its selling campaign upon the patriotic motif. But 'during the "Mighty Seventh" campaign, greater emphasis will be placed up6n the value of war bonds as an investment than ever before. Instead of three war bond campaigns per year, as we have had in; the past, there will be only two in 1945. But it is planned1 to raise as much money in two drives this year as was secured in three campaigns in 1944. That is the reason for thehigher quotas. Furthermore, the campaigns will be of longer duration. The "Mighty Seventh," as the current campaign is designated, already is underway, inso far as the payroll deduction campaign is concerned. All bonds purchased through payroll deductions during the months of April, May and June will be credited to county quotas. Experience has shown that the payroll deduction pro gram is by far the most effective method of buying bonds. Nearly all wage earners today , are receiving more money than they actually need. Very few people working for wages today are struggling to make ends meet. On the other hand, we see workmen spending money foolishly and recklessly. Such sights are more prevalent in the densely populated areas, where large scale war industries are estab lished, than in our own community, where wages for lumber workers are less inflated than in almost any other essential industry. But we all must admit that a great deal of money is being spent foolishly today. . But a minority group of wage earners are "making hay while the sun shines." They realize that the present era of high wages will not last forever; that competition for jobs will automatically result in lower incomes. Conse quently they are saving for that "rainy day." They are living comfortably but are not wasting money and are in vesting their surplus income, to meet future anticipated needs. These people are investing to the limit in war bonds. Thetftw'roH deduction program offers a simple; 'anil easy method for accumulating a backlog of investment dollars which can be utilized when needed. Wage earners are being urged during the 7th War Loan to utilize the payroll deduction method of increasing their savings. It is requested that this deduction be made as large as the wage earner can afford. best of the Jap guns. Jap air attack aganlst our fleet around Okinawa is dwindling away. In these attacks, many of them by sulfide pilots, the little yellow men have lost UG5 planes in two days and apparently are concluding that the cost is more than they can stand. Something wierd is happening on Okinawa. AGAIN (they have tried it several limes before) there Is an attack by Japs armed only with SIX FOOT SPEARS, lipped with metal points. UY spears? They can't as yet be short of guns and ammuni tion. You explain It- if you can. This writer can't. It must be Just another queer quirk of the sub-human Jap mind. Tl 1ERE is another '100-pliuie B 29 fire raid on Tokyo that leaves large areas of the city In flames. If the Japs think it is tough, haven't seen anything yet. When they should remember that they our mighty fleets of bombers, that have laid Germany In ruins, ar rive in the Paeiifc, they will find out what bombing Is like. f news or OUR HINWWUMIN IN UNIFORM Mr. and Mrs. It.
