Newspaper Round-up
. The newspapers of Oregon, mostly republican
in their political complexion, took the results of
Ji uesaay s pou. in sinue. r nu uic Mtiuuv.
"Well, that's that," of the Bend Bulletin to the
refurbished editorial of 1940 used again (and
again and again?) by the Medford Mail-Tribune
editors acquiesces in the anticipated result with
generally an attitude of joining-hands now for
attack on the nation's problems.
The Oregori City Enterprise, rep.," remarks
that power is entrusted not so mucn to tne dem
ocratic party as to "the wisdom and power of
one man -to us still an ominous situation.
1 The Dalles Chronicle, . rep, sees only this
fourth term for Roosevelt, figuring not only on '
his age but on the "next tumultuous four years"
which it thinks wlf be enough to defeat any
man for reelection; It is pessimistic about im
pending inflation and socialism: "In other words
it may be: Alter me, the, deluge. " ,
The Coos Bay Times, ind., whose editor Shel
don F. Sacketf was Roosevelt's most ardent edi
torial supportr in 1944 as in 1940, finds, in the
language ! of Rodney Alden, its editorial con
tributor, no time for either gloating or recrim
ination, I It condemns republican practice in
crucifying Wendell Willkie and in the Dewey
campaign, assertions which Alden says, "come
under the head of brazen deceit."
Frank Jenkins in his Klamath Falls Herald
and News comments that "The instinct of the
people is still to distrust the republican party,
which held too much power too long and abused
it.".. , : . ' -
Stalwart Claude Ingalls of the Corvallis
Gazette-Times, rep., glooms: "It is clear that
the communist-fellow - traveler - CIO - federal
employ e-socialistcitizens-of- foreign - extrac
tion plus the solid thinkless-south-ticket won
again and next January we will have another
coronation." His. forecast: "So we are in for
four years deception, secrecy, falsehood, wise-
craLM aim upiwriuiuwi, wsuu
grain of comfort in this: "Benton county is one
of the sanest spots in the country in which to
live. .:K:v;fe;i:-;v:-"$'- i
The more temperate Eugene Register-Guard,
.ind., which again (third "again") opposed FDR,
anticipates that his "regime" will be "more ar
rogant and cocksure thaiv ever before." But it
sees for republicans "the hour of opportunity . . .
if they can lift their own party1 out of petty ob
structionism." It thinks that it is the demo
cratic party "which must view the future with
grave concern," because its - success is built
around "one man-" ' ?
The East Oregonian, traditionally democratic
but which supported Willkie four years ago,
pursued the same course as the Portland Jour
nal this year in backing the president for a
fourth term, largely on account of the war situ
ation. It sees in the large popular vote for
Dewey a warning to the president and his fol
lowers not to get "puffed up". The election, it
feels, gives "the president a plain mandate to go
ahead with our war plans and with plans to in
sure future peace."
The larger number of Oregon daily papers, as
In previous years, opposed Roosevelt. That was
true the country over .where the Editor and
Publisher survey showed that 68.5 per cent of
the press! opposed and 17.? per cent supported
Mr. Roosevelt. This gave Mr. IckeS the oppor
tunity to jab again at the newspapers, inviting
editors to explain this situation which, Ickes
thinks indicate "a progressively unhappy and
dangerous decline in reader confidence. This
' was the contention in 1936 and 1940. But meas
ured by the declining popular majorities for the
president it is less true today. If the press line
up remains the same and republicans win in
1943 will Ickes then regard that as proof of the
restored influence of the press? We doubt it.
to the voting public and do not pretend to be,
nor is j their judgment infallible -nor 5 ifV the
" judgment of the people infallible either. Roose
velt's personality has impressed the voting pub
lic more favorably than the more critical mem
bers of the press.
Local Rights and Federal Power
The Eugene Register-Guard, agreeing with
the recent addresses of Dr. Paul Raver of the
Bonneville administration calling for public ap
proval of federal construction and operation of
dams and power transmission lines, questions
the administrator's disclaimer of federal par
ticipation in retail distribution,
It asks if Dr. Raver is going to continue to de
mand the say in retail rate structures both for
private and publicly operated facilities. It asks
if the government agency i going to keep its
hands off and let localities make their own de
cisions as to type of ownership, and then asks
if the people of the northwest will nave any
"say" in case a regional authority is set up for
the Columbia basin. l . I ,
These questions, as has been previously noted
in The Statesman, have worked to retard public
acceptance of the Bonneville program, because
the people are jealous of local rights. To quote
the concluding paragraphs of the R-G's edittrial
The surplus power from Bonneville and Grand 7
Tui-tfitmn1atMl rfami) MUST be mar- 1.
keted. People of the Northwest would be foolish
not to want to make maximum use of that resource.
BUT what are going to be the.boundaries between
federal and local authority? Do we have to sell the
American! birthright to get AVAILABLE POWER?
Are these proposed "valley authorities" going to de
mand control over every trickle; of water on the
vast watershed a paramount question! for farmers
and ranchers? Are theyr going to demand the right
to enforce their notions of "planned economy" down
to the tiniest business and the last tillable acre? Are
these proposed "valley authorities" going to be po
litical instruments, or will they be agencies which
the people control?
Eugene takes great pride in its municipal power
plants, built from the ground up, boasting lower
fates even than Bonneville, but Eugene will not be
immune from grasping "authority" programs. Some
day, not so far distant, Eugene will have to decide
whether to build more plants of its own or to draw
on that great surplus from Columbia river. What
will be the terms?

One of the knotty problems which the admin
istration postponed till after the election is the
fate of the Little Steel formula. The war labor
board passed over to the president the decision
on whether .it should be scrapped and steel,
wages raised. If this is done railway workers
and other branches of labor will demand similar
wage advances. It will tax the president's in-
i genuity to hold the roof on the economy and
hold down wage increases and at th same time,
satisfy the workers who after all turned in the
winning votes for him.

Fighting at Ormoc
General MacArthur tells the people frankly
that the Japs have succeeded in landing 35,000
veteran troops at Ormoc on Leyte island to op
pose the Americans. They have succeeded in
spite of American control of the air and the con
stant efforts of PT boats. The general says that
our initial advantage of surprise in our landings
is now used up, which indicates heavy fighting
before the Japs are ousted from the Philippines.
The Japs have the advantage of shorter lines
of communication. Their boats and: barges can
creep along through the narrow seas, hiding by
day and traveling by night. They have a huge
reservoir of manpower on their home islands
with large forces on Luzon and in south China.
What we need is to get hold of a good harbor
like Manila where we can base our navy. Then
it can control the waters, with the aid of air
power. Airplanes alone cannot prevent jenemy
reinforcement because they can't hover over the
seas and watch movements. Ships with planes
for observation, can do the job. Until we get
Manila we will have steady fighting, and subs,
PT boats and aircraft will have to fight hard
to keep off enemy reinforcements.
General MacArthur is confident of his ability
to handle the situation on Leyte, but this ex
perience shows what he will be up against in
moves against Luzon or Formosa.
When the "waitress Wanted" signs come down
from restaurant windows then we may know
the war is about over. , .
Editorial Comment
THE &IASZNE BIRTHDAY
Marines, proud, cocky and just a thousand miles
from Tokyo, make their annual entry Friday in the
log they have been keeping for 169 years.
For the historical year ending November 10, they
can write: "Mission Accomplished" after Bougain
ville in the Solomons, Tarawa in the Gilberts, Cape
Gloucester on New Britain, Roi and Namur in the
Marshall?, Saipan, Tinian and Guam in the Mari
anas, Peleliu and other assorted islands in the Palau
group. ,
In these 12, swift months, marines have been the
spearheads in performing what has been called by
the Commandant. Lt. Gen. A. A. Vandegrift, "the
amphibious miracle of our time."
These men, who boast they can land on the
beachhead to Hell against the Devil himself, have
bought with their lives and blood the islands from
which the U. SJ navy now dominates the Pacific
ocean areas, including the front and back doors to
Japan itself.
Soberly and with full realization of their sacri
fices, the Leathernecks will enter the names of those
who gave their lives, or suffered grievous injury.

The army wanted 4000 nurses in September;
it got 600. In the summer months the call of
the army and navy was for 1500 a month; they
never got over 900. This explains why the re
cruitment of nurses is being pushed and why
women are recruited for the divisions of the
service for assignment to hospital i duty. The
nursing job begins when the, shooting starts,
and doesn't stop when the guns do.

ASSOCIATED PRESS WAR ANALYST
The widening scope and deepening bite of Gen- '
era! Patton's Third army drive is beginning to war
rant Berlin classification of the operation as a ma
jor offensive. . '
It covers an estimated 75-mile wide front in the
Metz area as last reported with indications that
eight or more divisions including at least two ar
mored units, have been employed.
. There are also signs in field reports that due to
weather conditions and probably to a serious, lack
of air power the, enemy may have been caught nap--ping
to some extent.1 : The 10-mile depth to which
Patton's troops had penetrated in less than three
days leads to thjrt conclusion. ,
If Patton has achieved substantial surprise to
threaten' the powerful j Metz-Thionville redoubt
with isolation so quickly, it must be largely due to
, enemy lack of information and to his own accurate
knowledge of Nazi deployments on that front
It still seems that the immediate purpose of the
Third army drive, how. expanded to a triple front
. attack, is to slash across enemy communication
links with Metz and ThionviUe rather than to storm
forward to the German frontier and the Saar. The .
closing jaws of the trap are taking shape on the map
. both east of the Sefle rjver crossings, below Metz.
and in the wide and deep bridgehead beyond the
Moselle to the northeast of Thlonville.
Perhaps the most significant aspect of the Third
army offensive, however, is the evidence it gives of
General Eisenhower's ability to make good his
statement that there would be no winter letup on
any sector of the j western front. At the time he
spoke two weeks ago there was much to suggest
that British-Canadian ; forces and the American
First army to the north held priorities on ammuni
tion, tank fuel and other items, essential in quantity
for any such large scale operation as the Third
army has now launched.
If that is true, it seems clear that despite long
communication lines and weather-bound roads to
French coastal areas Patton has now been supplied
sufficiently to resume the offensive on a broad
front"; Eisenhower's logistics problem so far as the
left flank of his line in Germany and Holland is
concerned will be completely solved when the Ant
, werp base gets into full action. It would not very
grestly lessen the supply difficulties cf his trocps
farther south, however.... : .

Tw books for tho youngsters i
Pigeons never meant much in
my life until I read a book call
ed "Couriers of the Sky," by
Mary Graham Bonner. In the old
days, a pigeon was just a bird
that emitted a curious cooing
clucking sort of sound at inter
vals,' and was occasionally serv
ed as food when very young.
Now I know a lot better.:
Pigeons have been one of'
man's closest friends since his
tory began, Miss Bonner writes,
and probably long before that
vague date. The friendship has
never been altered, nor has the,
usefulness of the pigeon in other
than gastronomic fields lessened.'
Even today,- when we have ev
erything from the international
cable sytem to walkie-talkies,
pigeons still are useful as mess
'. age bearers. V''- s ! '
.Nor is just any pigeon ade
quate for just any task. Racing
pigeons should never be white,
because hawks can see them too
easily. Pigeons used for racing,
; or homing pigeons, must have all
twelve of their tail feathers to
fly efficiently, and should you
want to buy a start of homers,
you should make the purchase
when the birds are not more than
: four weeks old. Otherwise you
are quite likely to have nothing
left but a nest when they are
first given liberty.
Miss Bonner gives more than
the history and habits of the
birds she tells simply, , and
i very well, how to care for pig
eons and how to house them. It
Is interesting that 'the . Chinese
used to tie whistles and bells to
pigeons to frighten away hawks,

NEW YORK, Nov 10 Sharp
changes in inner political man
agement of this nation are like
ly to i evolve from the election
results.
Gov. Dewey naturally will go
back to Albany for the two more
years of his term and there will
wield whatever leadership he
chooses to as
sume over the
tr e m e n d o u s
number of peo
ple who voted
for ' him. But
Gov. Bricker
chose to re
llnquish his
Ohio job, and
the returns
were not fully -tabulated
be
fore a movement was started in
the party to get him to go on
to Washington, to take over the
chairmanship of the republican'
national committee.
Bricker has always been popu
lar within the party and the in
fluence he wielded successfully
in the election, in Ohio and less
successfully in the far western
states, makes the idea of him
assuming the full time job of par
ty organization management
rawer obvious, especially as
Chairman Brownell made per
sonal sacrifices to take the job
during the campaign (he was
doubtful about it until pressed
by Mr. Dewey) and has intend
ed to retire. - , i
- The republicans were not dis
organized by the result which
caused only the deflection of
Senator Ball. Actually the tabu
lation of votes induced most of
the party leaders to predict an -easy
national victory, when. If
' ever, 'the vote-magic of Mr.
Roosevelt is eliminated from the
picture, as the popularity of
democrats drops, sharply after
his name is passed.
I On the democratic side, the

Activity Saves
310,000 Lives
CHICAGO, Nov. 10 The lives
of 310,000 Americans have been
saved since . the national safety
movement began in 1913..
This is revealed in the 1944
edition of "Accident Facts," the
statistical Yearbook of : the na
tional safety council.
A box score of accidents con
tained in the book shows that the
death rate has been lower than
for 1913 each year in the 33-year
period 'from 1914 to 1944, except
for 1917 and 1938. In 1913 the
rate was 85.5 per 1C3.C30 popula
tion. Last year it was 72.3.
During the triple decade there
were 2,SC3,CC9 .accidental deaths.
If the death rate had been as high
each year as ,tt was in 1913, this
death toll would have been 3,-119.CC3.

have vanished. The town now is
run by ki ! military - government
detachment commanded by Capt
Robert AJ jCoetcheus, a former
Indianapolis lawyer. Credited by
first army headquarters with an
exceptionally- well-run cotbmun
ity, Goetcheus says this is large
ly due to civilian cooperation.
"These ji people are tired of
war," Goetcheus f said, f- "and
would welcome! peace at any
price. Peace with American oc
cupation seems to them to be
much preferable to continued
resistance. I believe they are not
unhappy to see us here. No case
of sabotage by an inhabitant has
yet occurred."
The inhabitants are known to
have foiled several, attempts by
nazis to organize sabotage. When
the naxis at Aachen sent a for
, mer citizen of Monschau back to
bis hometown as a refugee with
instructions to wreck its central
telephone j exchange, the home
town boy j merely removed vital
parts of the exchange and hid
them, telling others where they
could be found. When the Ame
.ricans came, the equipment was
-restored -:jh.. V
Before evacuating Monschau,
the nazis also planned to destroy
its fire-fighting equipment.
Townspeople, hearing this, hid
the community's fire engine in a
cave. After the Americans ar
rived, they hauled it tout again.
Capt l! M. Tibbits, a former
Chicago ji banker, attached to
Goetcheus'; staff, pointed out that
when the Yanks arrived they
found 78,000 reichsmarks in the
local, bank,! now under American
control. So on new deposits
brought this up to 100,000.
"Those 1 1 depositors certainly
must thins j the Americans are

"otherwise they ) wouldn't put

Nazi propaganda inadvertent

Once they heard a nazi report
that Monschau had been retaken i
by the Germans. This drew a
laugh. Mother broadcast told
that the Americans were killing
and raping the citizens. This
