BV entering Czechoslovakia, our Third army has cut all the main, straight, fast routes from northern Germany Into the south ern mountain hideout. Nazis headed in that direction now have to use minor, roundabout roads and highways. We're heavily bombing all routes leading Into this mountain hole-up, including those leading out of Italy devoting particular attention to the Brenner pass, We're also bombing electric la stallations serving the hideout. ROAD "STEAL" BREWING Ernie Pyle Killed in Action GOEBBELS (nuid poison pen artist) tells the German peo ple that "our nation is balancing on a razor edge" and calls upon (hem to "stand behind Hitler and by a last all-out effort make sure that the relch does not break apart." IN central Germany we take one of the greatest nmmunillon and gasoline dumps yel. The booty in ciildcs 500 88-mllllmoter guns and DO huge bunkers filled with artil lery shells including 27,000 con taining "toxic" (poison) gas. The nazJs have been expected to start using poison gas at any mo ment, and these shells indicate that they have it on hand and ready for use. One suspects that secretly we'd like nothing better than to have tnem start gas war fare. We're well heeled that way also, and gas would be useful in cleaning the last-stand na.ls out of their mountain holes when that time comes. GENERAL BRADLEY Joins Eisenhower In predicting that all Germany must probably be oc cupied before victory can be com plete. That brings to our attention one Of the more or less secret deals Consummated at Yalta. When organized resistance ends, Germany is to be split up into three zones- -one zone to be oc cupied by the Russians, one by the British and one by us. According to the scanty Infor mation that litis leaked out, the Russian zone will take In eastern Germany, including Berlin, and the British will get the northern and northwestern sector, includ ing the great Atlantic and Baltic ports. Ours will be southern Germany-INCLUDING BAVARIA, which Is a part of the hideout area. WHEN the division will take place and whether each na tion will assume the Job of ROOT ING OUT THE NAZIS left as guerrillas in its six-tor AFTER Germany has been split up into occupation zones hasn't been an nounced. IN the Pacific, our Okinawa casualties, as of Wednesday, In cluding army, marines and navy, totalled 7!)88 killed, wounded and missing. Of this total. 1 IS2 have been killed, 4700 wounded and 17r0 are missing. You will note from this thai in spite of its easy first days, Okinawa has been no walkaway. Our NAVY casualties hi the I ikinawa fighting have been HEAVIER than the army and marines reflecting the fact that the Jap air force has sunk five of mir destroyers and damaged a number of our other war vessels. OUR ground forces have reached the northern tip of Okinawa, encountering no great Jap re sistance Indicating that practi cally the entire Jap garrison U By Charles V. Stanton . Apparently engineered by State Highway Commissioner Arthur Schaupp of Klamath Falls, a deliberate attempt to "steal" Southern Oregon's section of the Pacific highway is in the making. At a meeting of the state highway commission in Port land Tuesday, R. H. Baldock, state highway department engineer, submitted a recommendation for improvement of the Pacific highway from Eugene to Ashland, to make it the inter-regional route, -with a 21-foot pavement and 10 foot shoulders on each side. The Federal Public Roads administration, it is reported, has asked the sUite highway department to designate an inter-regional highway to form ft link in the north-south postwar highway system to reach from Alaska to Buenos Aires. It is requested that such selection be made by July 1. The state highway engineer, following the only logical course, naturally prepared plans and recommendations for reconstruction of the Pacific highway in Southern Oregon as' the route to be made a part of the inter-regional system. But Commissioner Schaupp interposed to dispute the engi neer's arguments that the Pacific highway is the best route and insisted that the Willamette highway from Eugene to Klamath Falls and the road from Klamath Falls to Weed, California, be made the inter-regional link. Press reports quoted him as saying: Until reading our engineer's plan, I thought that the meaning of art inter-regional highway was the most direct and fastest route between highly populated centers, which is what the Willamette route would provide. He further presented the claim, according to press re ports, that the distance between Eugene and Weed by way of Klamath Falls would be 20 miles shorter than by follow- Ing the Pacific highway route, and- would cost $5 million less to build. The highway commission took no action on the proposal, Chairman Baiifield ordering the matter tabled for further study. Commissioner Merle Chessman of Astoria, state senator from Clatsop county, is reported to have asked Commissioner Schaupp what the people of Southern Oregon, who had always assumed that they lived on an interstate highway, would say. For Senator Chessman's information we can feafely announce that Southern Oregon is prepared to say PLENTY and it may not be Couched in diplomatic lan guage. The Klamath Falls commissioner is attempting deliberate sabotage of Oregon's rapidly growing industrial center, stifled for years because of transportation handicaps. He would route a highway through a very sparsely settled area, largely national forest land where commercial development would be extremely limited, leaving sidetracked the num erous populated centers, agricultural regions and huge in dustrial field located along the Pacific highway. . . We do not have at hand engineering data concerning dis tances between Eugene and Weed by the two routes, but we do not imagine there would be any great variation after kinks are ironed from the Pacific highway route. There can be no denial of the fact that it may cost slightly more to reconstruct the Tacific highway than to make improve ments to the Klamath Falls route, but the resultant benefit would more than justify the anticipated added cost. We do not believe that Southern Oregon, which already has been kicked around by its only railroad, and has seen state and federal road money,- badly needed to open up in dustrial and agricultural resources, politically manipulated to benefit Willamette valley communities, already amply served by highways, will take another boot in the pants with out a mighty vigorous protest. p At " I 1 lh 'J'.- IT . -cT. f J $ , 1 Beavers, (.aimers, Tied af Top, Take Doiibleheaders (By the Associated Press) Pacific Coast league clubs were grouped today like raoenorses breaking from the barrier. Seattle and Portland, deadlock ed In first place,- pulled four games ahead of the field by sweeping doublehea ders last night. Tied for third in show po. sition were Oakland, Sacramento and San Diego. San Francisco, Los Angeles and Hollywood trail ed in that order. The Rainiers, after two succes sive losses to the Acorns, bounced back with two victories, 3-2 and 2-0. ' Beaning of Seattle's first base man, lieoreo McDonaia tiy cne- lini and Norbert's second inning nomer, his eightn ol tne season, highlighted the seven frame open er. McDonald failed to regain con sciousncss until taKen to a nospl tal. In the nightcap Glenn Elliott chalked up his tirtn straight vic tory for the Kainlers. The Beavers kern nace with te attle by edging out the last place Hollywood Stars l-o and 7-6, the last game going 11 innings. In Los Angeles the Angels evened their series with San Di ego, .winning 7-3. Novikoff, Los Angeles outfielder, had a perfect night at bat with lour nits in four trips to the plate. At the Seals stadium San Fran- Cisco crushed Sacramento 8-2. IKKA Teltnholol This Is one of the favorite portraits of Ernie Pyle. the greatest front line reporter of this war, who was killed by a Japanese machine gun bullet on a little Island off Okinawa. This copyright photograph of the famous Bcripps-Howard war correspondent beloved of U. 8. fighting men the world over was taken by Milton J.

Yoncalla Soldier , I Wins Brome Star' WITH THE 24'TH (VICTORY) DIVISION IN THE PHILIP PINES Private First Class Per rv L. Smith, husband of Mrs. Maude Smith, Yoncalla, Ore., has been awarded the Bronze Star for meritorious service in action during the battle of Leyte island in the Philippines. Private Smith's battalion, the crack 52nd field artillery of this Victory division, was in support -if infantry troops driving across the island. His Job was driving a bulldozer and to make a road where most of the lime there was nothing hut swamp and Jungle. Under constant lire by the ene my snipers and exposing himself daily to the enemy, Private Smith drove Ids bulldozer where others f mi red to tread. "His devotion to duly regard less of his own uersonat satety, snid CaDtain P. A. Wclhrs,, his commanding ol licer, was in keeping with the highest tradi tions of (lie service. concentrated In the southern part of the island, where heavy fight ing Is still in progress with no material change in the lines. THE Tokyo radio Is fighting a grand war In the Ryukyus. It announces that since March 23 Jap "kamikaza (suicide) fliers have sunk or damaged 393 of our warships, Including 21 aircraft carriers, 16 battleships, 55 cruisers and "scores" of other war vessels. If the little yellow men who run the Jap radio could KILL Win I WORDS, we would'nt have a chance In the Pacific. What kind of people these Japs are-to be able to absorb such staggering doses of unadulter ated bunk and still keep going passes all understanding. KRNR Mutual Broadcasting 6 y stem, 1490 Ktlooyolet.
