back inlo the gangster rendez
vous. 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.

IN honor of the Junction, Stalin
orders a salute of 24 salvoes
from 324 guns In Moscow and
issues an order of the day In
which he says: 'Long live the
victory of the freedom-loving
peoples in Germany.
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
