i Sanitation needs occasioned by
the: increasing population along
the Oregon coast from Seaside to
: the California line were stressed
' In a report f the Oregon post
i war development and readjust
ment commission, rued with
Gov. Earl Snell Saturday,
i ; Action by 'the property owners
j and stat board of health with
i relation to- improving sanitation
i conditions along -the coast hlzh-
j way, with particular reference to
i the Installation ot sewage dispo
! sal "projects, were emphasized.
L The report also mentioned the
! many new cottages, resorts, mo
! tela, cabins, restaurants, filling
i stations, dance halls - and tav
i ems. Host of these places are
: now served by septic tanks which
j do not measure up to tha reauire-
i tnenta of tha recreation areas, the
; report continued.
i Tha commission suggested tha
i creation ot sanitation districts for
t "which there Is now authority on
! the statute books. Tha report in-
dicated that by this method tha
: sewage problem could be con-
trollad in each community, along
me coast.
Before creating such districts,
the report averred, engineers
specializing in this character of
activity should fee engaged and
tha system of collection and dis
posal worked out in a manner
mecung wua ine approval ot the
: state health board. - J: . .
Particular mention was made
in the report of the heavy tourist
travel on the Oregon coast
way aunng a. number of years!
preceding the current world war. I
Officials predicted that this tra-l
vel would increase materially 1
with the close of the present con- 4

break out of the Normandy beach
head threatens to put the Germans
Into the strongest defensive posi
Cons they have held since D-day,
in the opinion of many British and
American observers of the French
campaign.
, Despite the capture of Caen, the
fact remains that Gen. Sir Ber
nard L.MoqtgomeryaV forces on
the eastern! wini of the , bridge
head today-MQ days since the in
vasion began -hold -less territory
than they did six days after D-
day when they reached Yillers
Bocage.
t Early in the invasion, allied air
forces had roads and hridges lead'
ing to the beachhead so badly
damaged that .Field Marshal Er
win Rommel could gather only
pieces of divisions to plug the gaps.
- He has been outnumbered on the
front since the first day of inva
si on, but because of bad weather
and the fact that air attack cannot
completely halt the flow of troops
and supplies, Rommel has been
able to increase his forces steadily.
' The allies have not yet launched
a coordinated large-scale attack all
along tha beachhead. When the
Americans were taking Cherbourg,
the British were on the defensive
around Caen. When, the British
and Canadians took Caen, the Am
ericans were busy regrouping after
Cherbourg and were engaged in
only limited activity. .
