GERMANY By Charles V. Stanton Germany has been defeated ! A fiendish enemy lias been beaten! We have completed one phase of our global war, but a formidable task still lies ahead. We rejoice today, but bur rejoicing- is not without its tears' and heartbreak; anxiety for the future cannot be completely hidden by the cloak of victory in Europe. Germany's defeat has been complete and crushing. Once we let the Hun' escape the terrors of war. We fought to his dsorstep, then accepted his surrender, permitting him at the same time to propagandize us into discounting his responsibility and releasing him from stringent terms of idemnity. Thus, because ' his punishment was light, he promptly turned again to plans for world conquest. His legions went forth proudly, armed with new and deadly weapons, trained to barbaric, terrorizing methods. He executed planned mass murder, scientifically destroying millions of lives, not alone for military advantage but rather to assure non-intorfprence with world control following victory by the soldiers of the But the legions which rode forth with pomp and cere mony, confident of their prowess in blitzkrieg warfare, have been hurled back into a wrecked and desolate homeland. The murderous horde has been decimated. Pride and arrogance have been brought Yet we must not forget that Dunkirk and Stalingrad wjll they mark the points where men who fought for freedom turned the tide toward extermination of the German beast. Those who have watched developments on the western front, where the crushing bow of the hammer was swung against Russia's anvil, have reason to be proud that it was the American armies that broke the last wall of resistance. Gallant allies, the British and brave revitalized French on Hut in the center, the American armies, in whose fighting ability our allies lacked confidence in the early days of the Struggle, delivered the blows victory. jne aointy 01 tne united been questioned by military Our theory of citizen armies no experience in major warfare, we were tola Mat we entered the last World war only after Germany had been worn out and exhausted. Our bravery was not questioned. but our ability was unproven. It is not so now. The world well knows the prowess of G. I. Joe. Eisenhower's sledge hammer has driven knowledge and understanding into many thick skulls. We glory today in our great victory. We mourn for those who gave their lives tq make it possible. We honor the dead and those who wear scars of battle. We rejoice that warfare in Europe has ended the terrible toll of death and destruction. The cost has been great indeed. But these are not times in which to halt to count the done. Another arrogant, treacherous foe still is before us. Already he feels the sting of defeat, but, like Germany, he must be thoroughly and utterly beaten. He must be made to realize the consequences of we have made to date will have been in vain. Before God, let us dedicate which lies ahead, taking confidence and pride in the achieve ments of the hour, but never freedom for all men; freedom frorn tyranny and oppression; freedom in which men shall guide their own destinies.

Only the life that is utterly sincere and rings with clear righteous conviction can behold the beauty and holiness of God. We may be generous with our money, devoted to our church, loyal to our creeds and rituals, but unless our motive Is gen uine and our purpose unselfish, all these things become as "sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal." All of us in the In ner chamber of our hearts sometimes want to be com pletely genuine. We hate sham. I question whether there Is any exception.

Cole, Buddy Win Praise In Morf armen Job WITH THE 40th INFANTRY DIVISION IN THE PHILIP PINES A hundred-yard dash through enemy lead with a 75 pound hump on their backs is no novelty to Pfc. Ralph L. Cramp ton, whose wife, Mrs. rene M. Crampton, resides at La Grande, Oregon; and Pfc. Lloyd A. Cole, son of Mr. Ben H. Cole, Roseburg, Oregon. - These two, mortarmen and heavy weapons experts of the 185th regiment of the 40th infan try division, have been in almost constant action since the initial landing on Luzon, January 9, 1945. At present they are participat ing in the closing phase of the northern Negros campaign. Here they are directing their fire in support of . riflemen clearing caves and enemy strongpoints. Each man carries an average of 45 pounds of mortar equip ment, plus ammunition and a full field pack. Often thev must dash across open terrain in full view of the Japs. These Yanks supported the drives on Clark field, Luzon, and the capital cities of Iloilo, Panay und Bacolod, Negros. During the day they face an unrelenting sun, dirt, dust and a shortage of bathing water. At night they sleep in their "fox-hole hotel," sung to sleep by Jap rifle, machinegun and mortar fire. "You don't dare ask a buddy for a ciguret butt or a drink of wa ter," these veterans say. "Both are rated higher than a blonde in these mountains." The two men add, "We look like bums in hard times, only bums are cleaner." Officers of the regiment state, "These mortarmen have earned the respect and admiration of their comrades for the magnifi cent Job they have done in sup port of attacking troops. Their fir is so effective it has discourag ed counter attacks and prevented escape of fleoing enemy detach ments." Meet Miss V. E.
