i A Year of "Unrah"
i "Unrah" as the UNRRA (United Nations Re-
lief and Rehabilitation Administration) is popu
I larly called, has been set up for a year and
quarter. It has spent millions 01 aouais
Casually lists
We confess to being skeptical on the casualty
lists covering Jap losses as announced by Gen
eral MacArthur. On Leyte the number reported
was around 115,000. on Luzon likewise a very
I :hasnV distributed enough food baskets yet to large number. We ondfr how touch is body
f eaual what the Salvation Army does at cnrisi- couni ana now mra gucux tmK. . , , ,
I mas time in a good year. Of its $2 billion dollar It is always possible afer an engagement fo
budget, $117,091,869 has been appropriated by
' 30 member governments ana J government
s have contributed $8,370,000 toward the $10,
5 000,000 allocated for administrative expense.
I UNRRA has sent missions to various nations of
South America to find out what supplies are
t available, and has sent missions abroad to see ,
what the needs are and how they may be met.
, But aside from very limited distribution of
; foodstuffs to Greece, which stopped when the.
i shooting took in UNRRA trucks and men, vir
i tually no relief has been provided.
"Unrah" has its excuses. Yugo-Slavia would
; n't let its agents in. Russia wouldn't admit its
: representatives into Poland or permit them to
supervise food distribution there. Italy is still
, bossed by the Allied commission of the armies.
France and Belgium haven't asked for its help.
As a result there is mounting criticism over
,; the' failure of UNRRA 'to provide the relief
which reports 'reveal is desperately needed.
i The worst impediment' to field operations is
lack of shipping. A few days ago Acting Sec
retary of State Grew announced that a limited
"number of ships had been made available for
I moving supplies to Italy; Poland and Czecho
slovakia. Shipments are being started toward
i these last two countries although the USSR
still withholds visas for admitting "Unrah's"
i agents to enter them. Agents now are entering
l.Yugo-Slavia following a recent agreement It
I now is expected that by April 1 and after the
I relief program of UNRRA will be really func
tioning. J
For financially independent countries like
France, Belgium; and The Netherlands, UNRRA
I will not furnish the goods, but is supposed to
assist mem. 1 ney nave tne ; means, Dut again
suffer because of lack of shipping and of break
down of internal transport systems.
The far easti$ also in the scope of UNRRA's
responsibility and a conference was held in
Sydney, Australia, last week to develop plans
to meet needs in liberated countries as fast as
the Japs are driven out.
While inimeiate providing of provisions,
fuel, clothing aj?d medical supplies and service
is generally regarded as the principal task of
UNRRA, the organization itselt seems to put
more emphasis; on rehabilitation, getting the
countries in shape to help themselves. One of ,
its most important and difficult tasks; is care
of displaced persons. It is estimated that about
12,000,000 peopje in Europe have been displaced
from their own national territory. In addition,
there '.are thousands who have been displaced
within the boundaries of their countries. In
China some 40,000,000 have been displaced.
Instinctively the majority will want to turn
-iback to their home villages and towns. But when
they arrive they may find only ruins awaiting
them. . . 1
It will take a competent, understanding or
ganization to assist these homeless folk to re
store their homes br erect new ones. UNRRA
-cannot finance the reconstruction of the war
? wastage in Europe and the far east. It can
provide channels in which energies for rebuild
ing may flow and provide counsel and organi
sation for the refugees. Already UNRRA has
in the Mediterranean area camps of some 50,000
Greek and Yugo-Slav refugees who await re
patriation. While we grow impatient for lack of evidence
of progress in getting bread and fuel to cold
and hungry people and critical of the seeming
Impotence of UNRRA, we have to realize that
it suffers many handicaps the need of getting
actual instead of just paper cooperation from
the supporting nations; approval of allied mili
tary command and of governments of liberated
countries; and then allotment of provisions and
. transport facilities. One thing is sure, though,
that if "Unrah" doesn't really get rolling by
. mid-summer public criticism will grow louder
and sharper. !
Editorial Comment
OK STATE RETIREMENT FUNDS
.; Persons interested in the use of (the state game
: . fund for the promotion and the -development of
.fish and game in Oregon are protesting the proposal
made in the senate bill 204 for th payment of a
pension from the fund to the widow of the lata
tMatt Ryckmtfn. It is set out in the bill that Mr.
Ryckman was an employe of the game commission
for 23 years, that he received "only modest com
pensation for his services and "by the long and
'faithful service of -the said Matt Ryckman and
.the small compensation he received therefor, a
duty arises to reasonably provide' for said widow.
It will be interesting to observe the action
- taken by the legislature with respect to this pension
bULWe are told that the compensation described
in it as, "only modest and "small" was, in the
later years of employment, $4,200 year and if
those-adjectives fit that pay and a duty has been
created to provide a pension then the legislature,
in fairness to the surviving dependents of scores
of other state employes, has an obligation to. car
for them, also. -"U
We leave it to those who feel that game fund
money should not be used for pension purposes to .
express themselves regarding this bilL For ourself
we suggest that the situation given publicity by
its allegation calls for remedy by the creation
of a sound .state employ pension or retirement

said plainly that this was thevtoughest go of

The aerial curtain-raiser for the culminating Russian-Allied
winter attempt to reach the heart; of
bomb rocked Germany wth land ! armies is on. j
London reports of 7000 planes teamed up in '.an
attack that poured explosives into German rail
hubs for 24 hours at a rate of 100 tons per minut
can have no other meaning. It looks as a knock
out air blow at Nazi .internal communications , In
preparation for virtually simultaneous Russian and
Allied ground attacks, to; crush In the walls of
the last German defense itadel. I f f
Judged by its size and east-west scope as well
as by its strict limitation! to rail hub targets, no
other construction could be placed on the massive
air blasting over Germany. It outmatched every
previous exhibition of air power in this war. j !
Yet the attack conformed strictly to the- Amerf
can air policy of striking only at military targets,
not to terrorize civiliah p?ulation$ War Secretary
Stimson told a news conference in Washington.
If the conclusive attacks of the winter campaign
by Russian and Allied armies are close at' hand,
the rail hub targets selected hold the answer to
German ability to survive the two front storm.!
Through them must shuttle the men and sup
plies from side to side to prop faltering defense
lines. With her sources of natural or synthetic
motor fuels lost or badly knocked, out by air, th
German web of hard ; surf aced roads is an unde
pendable prop for German battle fronts. The gaso
line to drive motorized supply and troop: caravans
as well as tanks and. mobile gun; mounts is fast"
leaking away. It is upon her vast rail network and
coal and even wood burning .motive power Ger
mans must increasingly rely as the final clutch ot
the war in Europe takes hold. j r I
That is the outstanding significance of the cumu
lative Allied air concentration against rail targets
that rose to unprecedented power In the Washing
ton's birthday mass sorties. It too clearly fore
shadows Russian and Allied ground action on a
hardly less unprecendented scale, j , $
r The daylight . bomb deluge was preceded by
British night-shift attack! sweeping widely over
Germany . with the kid of the first 'bomber's
moon" In weeks to reveal their targets. Daylight
conditions generally over Germany were reported
hardly less favorable for f pin-point attack on rail"
Junctions and assembly yards. : ; .
Authorative recapitulations of the damage don
were lacking as this was 1 written.! There could b
no doubt, nevertheless, that Nazis means ot meeting
new major attacks on either front quickly and
adequately had been gravely impaired. It will -take
days to restore blasted communications even
if weather conditions do not invite immediate
further air attacks on the same scale. And within
thos days the Nazi expected culminating . break
through blows on the Oder-Neissej line in the east
and the Roer-Maas line in the west may fall -
-'- How long Germany can stand the ever increas
ing strain without an internal convulsion of some
sort none can say. It seems clear, however, that
this most devastating and. far spread Allied bomb
ing attack while directed at military targets must
have some effect on German public morale. ; .

The particular visible point

prescription for free and se
cret elections eventually in the
many small European (Atlantic
charter), and the yet invisible
promise of 'Russian war against
our enemy Japan.

They raved about the friendli
ness of the French, the sheets,

Many of these soldiers and

Italy. On the question of ro
mance they were not over
friendly.; The soldiers though th
WACs were snooty. The WACs
said they didn't want the sol

but that, since they had to do
it,! they could have been more
polite.
Most GIs, unless they have
lost their heart to some WAC in
the outfit, want to meet other
WACs or French girls. That's
quite all right with the WACs,
who would like to meet other
soldiers. Some WACs said that
while on rest they feel they
should be allowed to date any

To the Editor: j " !
j Buttercups are usually our first
wildflowers to bloom. Even the
buttercup has roots deep in folk
tore. Sweden has a buttercup
fairytale about a miser: He was
told there was a pot of gold coins
at the foot of the rainbow. Be
fore starting! out, he picked up a
sack. - It was almost new. He
could sell that i to the junkman.
Taking another, an old : one, he
crossed forest and meadow to the
- Rainbow.' There he found gold
coins. These he greedily stuffed,
into his sack. Swinging this on
his back, he started home across
mountain-meadow. " He did not
reach fiie other side of the mea
dow till dark. ' He was tired from
the long hike, j He laid down to
sleep. The next morning, he
found the sack, being old, had
sprung a leak, j He had lost his
coins." He recrossed the meadow,
. but could ! find no .gold coins.
They had all sprouted into but

the coast range, and the commis

I hope the game commission
does not have it in mind to burn
down all the forests remaining
in! the coast range in order to
provide better browse for the

From forestry people one gets
a report with a very different
emphasis. The deer in the Tilla

ly Jin numbers, several times as
many as before the fires, it is
said. j . .
' There are now too many deer
for the winter forage that is
available. So. they feed on repro
ducing forest growth, nibbling
the growing bud of Douglas fir
seedlings in particular.
The concentration of deer In

from forestry people comes the
suggestion that an open season

good thing. '
Western Oregon along the coast

fi '.Payment f Taxes ? -Most
wag earners began to
pay their 1944 income tax in Jan
uary of that year through the
withholding of tax from' their
wages on each pay day. Wage
earners whose tax was not all
withheld and other taxpayers
who expected to have some tax
due and not withheld for 1944,
with some exceptions, made cur
rent installment payments of es
timated tax to th collector ot
internal revenue- on or before
April IS, 1944, June IS, 1944,
September 15, 1944, and January
15, 1943.
On or before March 15, 1945,
they should file their annual j
Federal income tax returns for ;
1944 and show therein the set- j
tlement of tax for the year. How-
ever, farmers who did not tak
advantage of the installment j
method of currently paying ;
their 1944 estimated tax had the i
choice of either paying j the entire j
estimated tax by January 15, j
1945, with a settlement on a final
return by. March 15, 1945, or of
filing the- return itself not later :
than January: 15, 1945 (so that!
the return will also serve as tha j
declaration of estimated tax), ;
and making payment in full at '
that time of the entire tax re-;
ported as due for the year.
In their returns, taxpayers
should take credit for all taxes!
' collected through withholding!
from their wages during 1944 i
as Shown by their Withholding j
Receipts, and for all taxes col-j
lected through payments of esti-
mated tax. The remainder of)
the unpaid tax, if any, should be!
paid not later than the due date
of the return as explained above, j
while taxpayers who have paid
more than the total amount due
will be eligible for a refund or
credit '
Special rules apply to mem
bers of the armed. forces in de-j
termining the time, when pay- j
ment of the final balance due!
shall be made when they have!
been outside of the United States, j
as explained in article No. 51 inj
this series. j
Payments of income taxes j
must be made to the office of the
collector of internal revenue!
where the return is required to I
be filed that is, to the collector
for the district in which is locat
ed the taxpayer's legal residence
or principal place of business. If
he has no legal residence or prin
cipal place of business in the
United States, payment should
be made to the collector at Bal
timore, Md.
Payments of tax may be mad
in cash, or by check or monay or-
der payable to "Collector of In-j
ternal Revenue. If payment is !
made in! cash, the taxpayer!
should request and the collector j
should furnish a receipt If how- j
ver, payment Is made by check
or noney order, the canceled!
check or the money order re
ceipt is usually a sufficient re
ceipt. .
In the computation and pay
ment of taxes, fractional part
of a cent is to be disregarded un
less lit amounts to one-half cent
or more, in which case it shall
be increased to 1 cent
Individuals who exercised
their right to postpone payment
of part of their 1943 income tax
until March I,1945; should by
this time have received separate
bills from the collector for this

bill IU based upon an account
