Those suviving our bombing and strafing planes will be badly battered and shaken when they reach the Inner den. THE blood-stained structure of the nazl new order In Europe Is rapidly crumbling Inlo ruin. TWO-THIRDS of Berlin Is al ready In Russian hands. Soviet dispatches describe the city as a "wilderness ol crumbling stono swept by hot winds from the flames of burning buildings." Its fanatical defenders appear to be lighting to the last, with little quarter asked or given. It was written long ago: "Those that live by the sword shall PERISH by the sword." THE first actual contacts be tween Americans and Rus sians were effected by advance patrols sent out In Jeeps by our side to clear the roads of tens of thousands of Germans fleeing westward to surrender to the Americans before the Russians got them. They brought Russians back with them to our lines. In the celebration that followed, a Rus Kiun major said in an Impromptu Speech: "We extend warmest con gratulations on the destruction uf nazism. We hope this meeting Mil be the basis for peace In the ivorld to come." That doesn't sound like the ut terance of a barbarian, does it? NO DENIALS THIS TIME By Charlet V. Stanton j Every time we read of one of our American commanders forcing a bunch of snivelling Germans to view the horrors of a Nazi murder factory, we have an overpowering desire to stand up and applaud. We would, too, if we could thus express our approval to the commanders responsible. Following the last war we whitewashed a lot of atrocity stories. We learned that some were pure fiction and were spread as "hate propaganda." Consequently we were in clined to discount the tales coming from war devastated countries during the current war. But there will be no discounting German "Kultur" this time. The evidence is being viewed by our fighting men. General Eisenhower has called for delegations from Parlia ment and from the Congress. He has given an invitation to a delegation representing the press. But, best of all, the German public is being forced to witness the atrocities their nazi warlords have committed. General Fatton not only took the entire civilian popula tion of Weimar to the scene of a murder factory, but forced them to gaze upon the horrible spectacle. And when stomachs and eyes both rebelled, the civilians were forced to take another look. Other commanders have followed Patton's example. One officer rounded up the leading citizens of a town the bankers, the doctors, the merchants and made them give burial to the mutilated, starved, partially burned bodies of tortured victims in one of the largest internment camps. When Germany starts her sympathy campaign after this war, she will not be able to deny the stories of her terrible atrocities. , It Is foolish to say that the German civilian population did not know what was going on, although they may be expected to make denial and to place all of the blame upon their naxi overlords. But at least, they will not bo able to deny the evidence. Our commanders have seen to that. OUT OUR WAY BY J. R. WILLIAMS T . I 'ilIiHIHIIIIIlimminl.il, 1 ' " I vvuun.

REMEMBERING thut Russia is now a totnli'arlan despotism, your reaction to this sentiment may be a cynical one. Restrain your cynicism. Give heed to the lesson of his lory. IIULH faith In the Russians. II Remember that at the time of the French revolution the French people were little farther away from serfdom than were the Russians when they over threw the car a quarter of a century ago. In the bitterness of their hatred, the French went to the same bloody excesses. BUT The French people lived and grew and developed to become Europe's strongest bulwark of democracy and freedom of the Individual. The sane, practical French people are probably our creates! hope now for a decent Europe in the critical years that lie ahead of us. DON'T lose fallh In the Russian people. Don't Judge them by (hell- present admittedly un democratic government. Give them time to grow up and blos som out. History tells us plainly that virile, hopeful peoples emerg ing from the darkness of serf dom inlo the light of greater free dom offer tremendous xssiltll lies of progress toward a belter world. We simply must be hopeful to ward Russia. Hopeful and HELP FIJI If our hopes fall o realiza tion, dark days are ahead for Ibis world. I ITU bloody nazlsm reeling to ward Its Inevitable end, we must guard ifgalnst any feeling tli at the war is about over. The Pacific war is our real war. It isn't over yet. II won't be over until indoctrinated totali tarian Jupan has been brought to the point now readied by indoc trinated totalitarian Germany. Fire Protection Being Planned A meeting will be held next Wednesday at the Schricker Auction barn to discuss proposed formation of a fire protec tion district. This meeting was requested by residents of Riverside and Edenbower, but it should also be attended by residents of West Roseburg, Deer Creek, Miller's Addi tion and Umpqua Park. We have long been urging fire protection for Roseburg's suburban property. Under present conditions there is a most serious menace to both life and property and there should bo no delay in making arrangements to provide pro tection from fire. Nor should the residential areas over look the need for sewer installation at the earliest possible date. In our opinion, nil of the suburban suctions immediately adjacent to the city limits should combine to set up one j JJjc jjnffl "" fire protection district, rather than each providing its ownlNorvaii' 01", 10 organization. The greater the amount of territory included, the lower1 will be the cost to individual property owners. In fact, if all of the fringe area is brought into one district, (he cost per year to each individual probably would amount to only a few cents and reduction iu insurance rates would more than offset the tax. . At Wednesday's meeting, representatives of the state fire marshal will thoroughly explain procedure, outline the various methods by which protection can be furnished and answer questions from any interested persons. Although called for the people of Riverside and Edun- bower, because they petitioned for it, the meeting is open to all who care to attend. We would particularly urge owners of property in all residential districts surrounding the city to be present and loam the procedure for establish ing fire protection districts, then carry the message back to their neighbors and secure immediate action. We have good reason to believe that our Pacific coast may be subjected to a fire blitz during the summer months and we will need every protective facility we can obtain. A good amateur boxing and wrestling card, which netted ap proximately $400 for the Rose burg Recreation fund, was staged at the armory arena Friday night by boys of the Roseburg High school, with two additional bouts furnished by Sutherlln High school.

Scallon won the first fall with a headlock In 6 minutes and 51 seconds. Lil lard took the second fall with a body press in 8 minutes and 49 seconds. Scallon took the deciding tall In 9 minutes with an arm stretch.
