there will be no departure from
our predetermined program.
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

two miles of Bremen. To tho

reach and pass Leipzig and push
on toward Dresden. Knit her to

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

large areas of the city In flames.
If the Japs think it is tough,

We hope you'll nearivllh us for
the next few days; in other
words, we're apologizing ahead
of time for tho errors we foresee.
Since so many programs were
cancelled over last weekend, wc
find ourselves in a state of be
wilderment as to just what shows
will be heard this week. Many of
tho programs planned for last
week will he released llus week
Instead. In oilier cases, last
week's shows have been skipped
and another production planned.
We're puzzled as to whether to
expect Jane Cowl in a guest ap
pearance on brownslone ineatrc
tonight . . . or not. Not to men
tion that we haven't an idea what
play is being presented. Anyway,
on the off-chance that Miss Cowl
will appear, wed advise -.oil lo
lie sure and tune 1190 before fi:-
;)0. Main Line has a swell story
scheduled, and we understand
lliat the Kresh-Up Show al 8:.)
is reallv good. I he Arch ( iholer
show will not he heard this week,
because we gel a re-broadcast of
the show, heard the latter p'irt
of the week In the East . . . The
cancellation Is for this week only.
Maybe by tomorrow we'll have
things straightened out; but jusl
be on the sale side, stav tuned to

best shows and all of the latest
