on separate battlefields,
i- The Paris radio quotes a rumor
"that we and the Russians have
actually met south of Dresden,
but there is no confirmation of
the Paris story. -
THE Germans have drawn
troops from heir reserves in
Berljn and even, apparently, from
their eastern front to' throw
against our 9th army at the Elbe.
Our advance there seems tem
porarily checked whether by the
German counter-attacks or to
wait for supplies and reinforce
ments to catch up not being made
clear in tho dispatches. . .
TO date, we have conquered
more than HALF of pre-war
German territory 101,000 square
miles altogether, leaving the nazls
only 84,000 square miles. We and
the British have taken- 63,000
square miles and the Russians
1 38,000. ' ;. ' . :..
THE German air force appears
to have been KNOCKED OUT.
Our; airmen on Monduy de
stroyed a total of 1116 enemy
, planes in the air and on the
ground, bringing to 3699 the. num
ber of nazi planes finished off m
: the first 16 days of April. The
Germans are said to have gone
into the final phase of the war
with i a pretty fair reserve of
planes, but when the critical mo
. ment came they HAD NO GAS
LEFT to get them into the air. '
GENERA L EISENHOWER
modifies again his V-E ' day
prediction asserting that the end
of the fighting In Europe will
not bo proclaimed until the LAST
POCKET of nazi resistance has
been' wiped out. This may mean
; that there will be no V-E day
proclamation until Hitler and his
. crew of fanatical nazls have bevn
looted out of their hideout In the
'. southern mountains. (They are
reported to be gathering there in
increasing numbers 1
It may take months to burn and
blast them out of their holes. '
WE must remember that then
are probably millions of men
I under, arms Id Germany.
There are perhaps a half million
Gorman . soldiers outside Ger
many. There are supposed to be
300,000 In Italy, 100,000 in Hol
land and goodness knows how
many in Norway.
There are 120,000 in BOIt
" 13EAUX alone, and some 60,000 In
nther ports In Franco. In the
lluropcan fighting we havo been
following MucArthur's strategy
Cf by-passing and leaving. .
IT must be kept always In mind
that this time we are facing
something new In modern war
fare. '..'
Hitherto nations have sur
rendered their armies when they
lire- hopelessly beaten. Tills time,
both in Germany and Japan, it
la war to the death. This Is no
chess garni. It is war for keeps.
Whipping the nazls is much
like breaking up the Millingcr

throats, but on a millionrold hig

A GOLD STAR
. . By Charles V.-Stanton " -
It is hard to believe 'Wat 'Ernie Pyle is dead; that G. I.
Joe's spokesman' will speak no :mofe. ' A nation mourning
the death of a great president has cause for fresh grief in
the death of the sturdy' little man who was much more
than a news reporter. 'i '' ' "
' ' Ernie Pyle reported the war as no other man has ever
done;' His reporting was1 factual, but it was not a chronicle
of the heroics of war; He told, rather, of the mud, stench,
grime, exhaustion and fear. He told of the daily lives of
the men with whom he served. His columns were letters
from the front to the millions of fathers and mothers at
home. And beyond the call of duty as a news reporter
he was a close personal friend to G. I. Joe with whom he
lived. When he returned home from Europe, exhausted in
mind and body, he bulged with hundreds of personal mes
sages from fighting men abroad to their loved ones at home.
Pyle hated war. He was sick of death, emotionally ex
hausted by the terrible scenes he had witnessed. "He asked
to be recalled from Europe because he had reached the limit
of mental and emotional endurance. '' " 'V '"' '"
But he could not find rest at home. He was the true re
porter unable to enjoy the comforts of civiliari life while
the fighting men he so dearly loved were in need of 'his
marvelous talent.' And so he headed west. He knew full well
the danger of his mission. Ho spoke of the dread with
which he again faced scenes of combat and death.' "Yet, as
the soldier charges forward with courage greater than the
fear gnawing at his vitals, so Ernie Pyle'Went back 'to war.
1 Ernie Pyle, as a true reporter, never sought fame nor
glory for himself, yet he became one of the' most famous
war correspondents of all time. Self-effacing, modest,
kind, he became world renowned because he sensed the
need for a link between home and the battlefront. " He wrote
simply. He did not attempt to garnish 'his messages with
fancy literary style. Instead, by a superb power of descrip
tion and understanding of human emotion, he was able to
portray the small incidents and events which, melded to
gether, furnish the picture of war. ''
He left reporting of strategy, of movements of armies,
of important victories and epochal achievement to others.
He cast his lot with the combat soldier as an individual.
He told little personal incidents.' He described his associa
tions, mentioned by name the men with whom he came in
contact,' told stories of their feats, their hardships, their
loves and their hates. He told of humorous experiences,
of acts of heroisni, of wounds and "suffering, of death. His
words flashed motion pictures upon a mental screen. :
Comparatively few people knew Ernie Pyle in person,
yet he was' dearly loved by millions.
' Hb' has joined ranks with many other of the reporters
who have gone before. The list is "long men who had
achieved fame for their writings; men who Were climbing
Ihe ladder;! men who went to their deaths courageously in
performance of their duty in reporting the news. No branch
of military service has a greater proportionate casualty rate
than the press. Our war correspondents have been true to
newspaper tradition. They have never shirked dangef when
news was to be had. They have faithfully performed their
assignments, and many have paid with their lives or have
suffered disabling wounds. So to the service flag of the
press we must tenderly affix another gold star a great
shining star for Ernie Pyle. " :
DAILY DEVOTIONS
DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS
Consciously or unconsciously,
each of us magnifies something
und the .thing we magnify re
veals our. character. One mag
niUcs self, another enlarges on
his prejudices, while another
exalts his possessions. Each per
son v. ho does this lives below
the high standard of a true
Christian. Paul found mnny
things In which he might glory,
hut he declared to the Philip
plan Church that whatever else
happened, he would magnify
Christ. To magnify Christ i3
the - high privilege of every
Christian. For us to magnify
Christ today means to show
others something of His holy
nut lire, which they may not be
hold except for our faithful
ness, it mc-ins to bring Him
closer to suffering humanity.
As we magnify Christ, we make
It possible lor our friends to
known, understand and appre
ciate Him more fully. To mag
nify Christ may demand sacri
fice, it may require readust
ments in. our manner of living,
but it is well worth the cost.
When we magnify Christ, we
most fully live. Can we say
with value, "For mo to live is
Christ?" Amen.

Reedspprt Will
Have New Census
'REEfeSPORT A ' 'n'ew "city
census will be obtained in Reeds
port, starting next Monday. H. F.
Philloppe, assistant secretary of
state, was in Reedsport Tuesday
to select and instruct enumera
tors. The work is being done un
der provisions of a law passed
at the last session of the legisla
ture, which provided that cities
might secure a census through
the secretary of stale in order
that they might more equitably
share in distribution of state
funds.
Mrs. Angie Lloyd, who conduct
ed the federal census in 1940, will
be in charge of the enumerators
and will be assisted by Mrs. Vera
Rydell, Mrs. Maude Wright, Mrs.
Yaquina MeClay and Mrs. Lil
lian Keith. The count is to be com
pleted within four days. Each
enumerator has been assigned a
definite district and only bona
fide residents at the time of the
enumeration are to be countod.
The last federal census gave
Reedsport a population of 1121,
but there has been a substantial
growth and it is believed the new
census will show a much greater
number of residents, which, If
proven, will entitle Keedslxnt to
a larger share of state funds dis
trihuted on a per capita basis.
