The nazl governor of Bavaria, Gen eral von Epp. ls said to have spilt with his nazl fellow gangsters and decided to break oft the fight as "senseless." 1 Die-hard nazl propagandists rush to the microphones else where In what little of Germany remains 'to them to brand' the Munich broadcast a "fake, by criminals, traitors and swindlers." It Would Make Some Sense IF "IRE BIRRS WHO STANP Iri THIS LINE UJE capture General' Kurt Ditt- ff . mar, one of the' best known of "the nazl radio corrimc'ntatbrs (he seems to have come lntd'our lines and surrendered, hoping to save his own skin). He says Hitler Is In Berlin, and will' die there, adding that when. Hitler dies it will all' be ovdrthat nothing will be left to hold iho nazis together. He. says the Bavarian redoubt is a ltiyth'; that it is poorly de- feritled' and will fall -. quickly. Maybe: Nobody can believe a nazl But there Is' probably a lot of buncombe about this nazl hide out-' . ...... GERMANY' Is obviously disin tegrating. Tho German people are acting i irt all kinds. ways, as people do In tqrrible emergencies.' Hitman nature there Is down' to the raw. Everywhere, though, there Is i terror of the Russians. It seems Jairly certain that the nazl propa gandists have overdone their Rus- j shin boogey man line. They have convinced even the German army that Russia can't be beaten. ; Whole German military units ( run in terror from the advancing i 'Russians. GERMAN propagandists Insist Hitler is still in Berlin. A Swedish report says he is holed up in a subterranean headquar ters deep under the Berllnzoo. Kced your fingers crossed as to Hitler. Ho is crazy enough to do miythlng. AUR men say the Russians they V have seen in action al the linkup point are much like us and the British, and offers In stances to prove It. A German workman com plained to a Russian officer about his foreman and wanted him shot Immediately. The Russian calmed him clown and answered:: "There will have lu be a lot of investi gating before there1 is'atiy. shool- , lnK" ' ' ti -''V ' Our men's Impressions of the Russian troops are favoi able In the extreme. They sran to be the kind of people we can get along with. One GI says: "They shake hands with their right hands and offer you everything they have with I heir left hands." THE conclusion is obvious that the end is neaiing in Ger many. There will be scattered re sistance or a greater or less scale liy nazl fanatics, but the big fight ing Is about over. Cleaning up ine mess Is an cither story. That Is Just begin ning. WERE JUST AS ANXIOUS TO By Charles V. Stanton A recent issue of the Daily Journal of Commerce, pub lished at Portland; Ore., contained a brief statement by Dr. Paul J. Raver, Bonneville' power administrator, concerninu; 1 organization of the proposed Columbia Valley Authority. We anticipate eventual formation of some authority, for, regard less of whether or not we believe in federal invasion of the hydroelectric field, the fact remains that we DO have public power;, that there will be extensive, public expansion in hydroelectric development, irrigation and reclamation. Be cause we have and will continue to have such developments, there must be some effective and efficient method of control. But, in our opinion,, any organization should be definitely umited and should be kept confined strictly to its own field and; certainly should be restrained from assuming any political' powers. Dr. Raver, however, as we interpret his statement, would extend the Columbia River Authority into a range of activities widely separated from power, irrigation and reclamation. As quoted by the Daily Journal Of Commerce, ho says: The proposed 'Columbia Valley Authority offers the first real opportunity In this region to reverse the trend toward centralization of government control in Washington, D. C. An authority bill cart do two Important things In this direction. It can put control on a regional basis with representation irum ine area concerned, and it can bring integration and harmony Into the planning and programming of existing agenoles and bureaus for" the development of resources of the entire region. Existing' government agencies, such as the Bureau of Reclamation, the Army Engineers and the Forest Service, have an Important place In the development of the region and should not be destroyed! The tremendous potential volume of energy of the Columbia river should be harnessed for all it Is worth and used to replSoo exhaustible forest, oil and coal resources. The problems and planning Involved in the fullest possible i development of our Northwest resources are so complex that to let five or six bureaus handle it without coordina tion is not only Inefficient- government, it Is Ineffective I government. ! The main requirement' ij the setting up of a new agency responsible not only to Congress but' to the people an agency with power to control the timing and the planning of the program and to integrate the budget. In that way the fihger of' responsibility can' be put In ono place. Although Dr. Raver states that the Bureau of Reclama tion, the Army Engineers and the Forest Service should not be destroyed, we interpret his statement to indicate tlmr ho proposes they be brought under control of the Columbia Valley Authority as the central, .mnlinutimr Proposals for the Columbia River Authority provide thatm tZ" its jurisdiction would include ALL of the slate.-! of Oregon "nst S"''dny night.

In the third and deciding round, which lasted 5 minutes and one second, the Mask butted and kicked Sneeze through the ropes and onto the floor.

The proposed Columbia River" Authority apparently is to be a new endeavor to transfer our Pacific Northwest forest resources from the Department of Agri culture to the Department of the Interior. Ihe industrial future of Douglas county rests on thn t uccess of the Forest Service and the O. and C. Administra tion iti enforcing their policies of sustained yield. The O. and C. administration operates under thn hen.irtment Of the Interior1 and there can be no criticism of the policy exhibited to date. But, on the other hand, we remember the department's acquisition of the Jackson Hole memorial uy executive' decree in defiance of Comrress: th iiim. tioii of the addition to Olympic National park; the con tinuedand continuing efforts of the' National P.-.rV service to annex Diamond Lake.
