Then our Americans leaped the Rhine und had strength to spare to turn south through Bavaria and Wur- temburg. Now, following the valley of the Danube, we and the Russians are preparing to Join forces and cut oi i the all-important war industries of Austria and Czecho slovakia. The redoubt dream is being reduced to a nightmare. IMAGINE Mount Shasta (the highest, roughest, wildest part of the Pacific coast) and the rug' ged, food-barren, industryless area around its base. Remember that this district is buried In deep snow throughout much of the year. Picture a band of desperate cutthroats surrounded there, ringed In by the peace officers of Oregon and California backed up by tin U. S. army. ' J r ; ! ;Ilow long could they Jast? Not very long. This Bavarian redoubt is in the rough Alps. It has relatively bo more resources than the coun try around the base of Mount Shasta. It is even more deeply buried in snow through a greater )mrt of the year. To be sure, the nnzis are sup posed to have been burying food like squirrels for a year or more mid to have gathered considerable Mores of arms. But time is long Jind the life they face will be drab. The conclusion Is inevitable that once they are driven back into their much-touted "redoubt" their goose will be cooked. ALL your ' life you've read of gangsters holing up in the hills and muttering threats that if they have to die they'll drag nil comers down to death with Ihcm. Seldom Indeed do these threats materialize. In the vast majority of cases, these breast beating, fire-breathing despera does submit tamely when the of ficers arrive In force. It isn't improbable that these once hollon-whcols nazl? will do likewise. ON Okinawa, the first Jap de fense line before Nairn Is MltpKKN by our grim doughboys With their rifles and their greu- lulcs. This first line included the strategic heights. Now we can .SHOOT DOWN at the enemy. The job is about a third done There were (10,000 to kill and we've killed 20,000 to date--21 i-T'!'. o he exact. ; Reports of our casualties are a trifle confused, with considerable duplication in the reports. But In ground action on Oknlawa 1116 Americans have been killed so far. The ratio of killed Is about 19 Japs for each American. G' ENERAL-" HODGE says that the Jap soldiers we've encoun tered on Okinawa are better troops, mure. intelligent, more in dividually self-reliant than any we've gone against hi the I'a ific war. Rut STILL the ratio is 1!) dead Japs to each dejid American. Those boys of ours out there have vliat It takes. By Charles V. Stanton Refurrring- to proposals for establishment of a Columbia Valley authority which isn't a Columbia Valley authority at all but a Department of Interior kingdom blanketing the entire Pacific Northwest we call attention again to a part of the statement accredited to Dr. 'Paul J. Raver, liotine ville Power administrator. Charging that resources of the Pacific Northwest are "so complex that to. let five or six bureaus handle it without coordination is not only inefficient government, it is ineffective government," Dr. Raver con tinued : "The main requirement is1 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 plan ning ot the program and to integrate the budget." For, too many years the administration's answer to any problem has been that of setting up a new agency. We have seen one agency piled upon another, with overlapping duties, power and authority, producing endless confusion and muddling. The proposed Columbia Valley authority, pro posing to coordinate the work and duties of existing fed eral departments in the affected states, could easily become another such bureau. If that were the only danger inherent in the proposed Columbia Valley authority, we might not be so greatly con cerned, but there are, in our opinion, other threats, par ticularly should the organization follow the pattern set forth in S. -Kit), introduced in the Senate of the United States by Senator Mitchell of the State of Washington. eni,:.. l.:n i.i I.. n i , . .. ims uin wuuiu puiKe me coiumuia. valley authority vir tually a government within itself. It would have powers to do almost any act which comes within the province of cither the local, state or federal government. Furthermore. there would be set up a National River Basin Development uoard. ihis would embrace the Tennessee Valley authority, tne Columbia Kiver authority and "such other regional authorities as may hereafter be created by the Congress.' ine secretary ol Interior the Hon. Harold L. Ickes, at present writing would be chairman. And. in addition. "all members of the advisory council shall be persons who proless a belief in the feasibility and wisdom of this act." What a beautiful picture! We permit as representatives in this organization only people who believe in the "nartv." We blanket the country with "authorities" each named after a river and each having delegation of powers which make them virtual governments within themselves. ' Then we place the whole structure under the command of the Secre- tary of Interior. talk about your totalitarian states! If S.

' .1 "Fight the good fight of faith," Christian faith is an indispensable asset to overcom ing the conflicts of life. It often determines whether we shall go down in defeat or rise to triumph. Before writing his great . masterpiece "The Mes siah," Handel was so disheart ened by his tragic experiences that he almost despaired. He had lost his health, his right side was paralyzed, his money was gone: and his creditors seized and threatened to Im prison him. For a brief time he was tempted to give up the fight. But faith prevailed and he composed his greatest work. "The Hallelujah Chorus." The world is a place for growing souls and all great personali ties with faith emerge victor ious from the conflict. Jesus said, "In the world ye shall have tribulation, but be or good cheer I have overcome the world." and again John re minds us, "This is the victory that overcome! h the world, even our faith. I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course. I have kept the faith."- Amen. KRNR MuIujI Broddcastinfl Systr m. 1430 Kilocycles. l:;ill Music Yd Supply. (:(.
