Russians Launefi Offensive
Russia lost no time in taking! the offensive .
gainst the Japanese in Manchuria. The neces
sity for this is apparent. First, Russia is in
an exposed position in Asia, with its Trans
Siberian railroad running close to the border
as it dips down to Vladivostok which itself is
nearly hemmed in by Japan. Second, Japan has
long concentrated its strongest army, the Kwan
tung army, in Manchuria to guard its borders
.against the Russians. Soviet commanders there
fore are wise in moving first to push the Japs
back and so protect their railroad line of com
munications. From the initial reports the Russian strategy
seems to be to aim at Harbin, important rail
center in Manchuria. Striking from two direc
tion, the Russians crossed the Mongolian bor
der along the railway northwest of Harbin to
capture the city of Manchouli and crossed into
Manchuria from Kharbarovsk northeast of Har-,
bin along the Amur river. If the penetration
continues Japan's armies will be definitely on
the defensive and unable to counter-attack into
Soviet Asia. ' - .
There is j little doubt that Russia has been
building up strength in Manchuria. Never, even
when the Germans were pressing the hardest,
was Soviet! Asia stripped of military strength, -although
troops from Siberia were brought in
to help lift the threat to Moscow. Trans-Pacific
lend-lease must have given Russia-in-Asia large
stores of supplies for use in the present fighting.
After V-E day Russia shifted its armies to the
east as rapidly as possible over the one railroad.
Japanese! armies in Manchuria must now be
self-supporting. The sea lanes to the j home
islands are under steady attack and the Japs
at home can spare no aid in men or materials
to their armies, in Manchuria.
If some kind of harmony could be fixed up
in China and China's weight of both regulars
and communists thrown against the Japs in
Manchuria on their western flank the position
of the Japs would swiftly deteriorate.
The signs indicate that Russia's declaration of
war was not a token declaration but one which
will be backed by action. The Japanese are
afraid of the Russians. It looks as though 1904
1905 would soon be avenged by the new Rus
sian armies.
Saving of Lives j j I :.
Getting Russia into j the Pacific war is said
to have been the principal object of President
Truman's journey to Potsdam. His purpose,
according to reporters, i was to end the ; war
quickly with the least loss of ; American lives.
It would not be just to' the president however,
to assume that he iwas inviting Russia to: lose)
more of its soldiers to effect this saving. After
all, Russia has born heavy enough losses in
its youth in the war against aids powers, f '
President Truman undoubtedly thought , that
with Russia closing the ; single open flank left
to Japan and offering j bases for American op
erations on Asia's mainland that the war could
be brought to an end : with far! less overall
loss of life. For our part we shall be surprised
if the entrance of Russia on top of the release
of atomic bombs does not force Japan to an
early surrender regardless of "face."? ThU
would make unnecessary the invasion of the
islands by force, with resulting heavy casual
ties. Thus the president's hopes would be , ful
filledand those of all Americans.
No Immediate Revolution
j Vfe need not be too greatly alarmed over the
imminence of revolution in power generation
due to thie discoveryjof how to split an atom
of uranium, 235. It ost the government two
billions of dollars to solve its problem. "Money
no object? was the tag on "Manhattan project."
Discovery of a new secret weapon which would
speed up victory would be cheap at most any
price, because of the economy in life as well
as in war spending. Between putting a thimble
ful of this new material in a destructive bomb
and having a new and practical agent produc
ing a controllable force there is doubtless a
great void.
Consider the item of cost. There have been
countless efforts to transmute base metals into
gold: but we have been told that even if the
problem could be- solved by science the costs
would doubtless be higher than it costs to go
out and dig up gold out of the earth. The
made-gold, in other words, would be too costly.
So with this new form of energy. The costs
may be so excessive that not for decades or
even centuries would it be a practical substi
tute for, coal, petroleum or electric energy.
Then there is the' matter ; of handling. How
can it be put in small enough parcels so it will
light a flashlight, drive a car or locomotive,
or heat ai city, and stilt offer no threat of de
struction? From reports the raw materials
worked on at Richland are harmless. But some
where the "dope" must get its dynamite. From
then on it becomes public menace No. 1. It is
reasonable to suppose that it will take a long
time before this energy can be bridled or di
luted and made available at filling stations all
over the 'world.
We may expect however diligent the effort
- to be applied toward solution of these problems,
they bring to man's beneficient use the power
which science has found, in the tiniest segment
of matter.
Editorial Comment1
It might as well be as id now as later, there is
some feeling among the white collar classes who
report and pay a good share of the income taxes
and seem! to get fewer of the benefits of social
progress, subsidies . and strikes that they were
misinformed in the recent election. They feel that
way because it is now announced, less than two
months after the state special election,' when mil
lions of surplus income taxes -were voted- for
building funds, that there will be no forgiveness
of Oregon) income taxes this year. The state tax
commission estimate of revenues is 'the .basis for
the advance, warning to the people that there will
be no discount on 1945 personal income or cor-"
porate excise taxes -payable in 1946.
Oregon's income tax rate is relatively high
among states. The 75 per cent and then the 25
per cent relief still left a lot of money from that
source. But, having voted out the surplus that
had been built up notwithstanding these reduc
" tions, apparently the State must assess the full
measure of the tax for this year..
The feeling is that the outcome of the special
election might have been different if the voters
had not felt after much explanation that those
funds were -to come from income taxes already
In hand. Technically the statement was true but
it is doubtful if the electorate understood, fully
that the forecast for income taxes this year would
be as conservative as that just issued by the tax
commission. "We think some editors who supported
the building fund measures, as we did, didn't get
the full picture that it now revealed. With the
cost of living 30 per cent up the full Oregon
income tax rate this year is going to be surprising
burden to a good many. Oregon City Enterprise.
City Hall Alterations L j
The building of a pair of lean-tos on the; city
hall would result in such architectural gauch
erie that it ought to! be avoidedunless the pur
pose is to offend the artistic sense of citizens
so they will be shocked into building a new
city hall. Here is a building with oddles of
space going to waste in its roomy, vastness, yet
so crowded are the working offices that these
additions are contemplated. j f !
Just what should be done with the building
we are not prepared to say; but really nothing
should be done until; the whole building is
surveyed by a competent architect., Better J wait
and do the job right than to butcher the build
ing in a hurry. . j j j

The Hot Seat
This front extended j southward
around 150 miles to the Buir lake
region where the fierfe fighting
of 1939 around Nomonhan took
place. j
Directly athwart: this western
drive lies the massive Hsingan
mountain range, guarding Japan's
main industrial development
around Mukden, farther east.
The drive presumably is pen
etrating great defenses j which the Japanese Kwan
tung army has been building for; years behind
Manchouli. ; -j i
Since Japan invaded China in 1937 there have
been repeated stories among the Chinese of large
forced-labor gangs taken to the ManchoUli-Hailar
region to work on vast concrete projects. The
stories usually had the laborers killed and buried
in the fortifications they had been forced to help
build: . j . : ;
The other arm of the Soviet; offensive is tajcing
a somewhat easier : war into the one remaining
and largely intact I concentration of Japanese
strength. Crossing the Ussuri river from the mari
time provinces, it is making its way up (south
westward) the Amur j valley and Is following in
reverse the most likely ; direction of any Japanese
drive which might have been made to cut off
eastern Siberia. :'j '-,.. j j
Meanwhile, according to the Tokyo radio, a pro
tective Soviet move has been made near northern
Korea in a thrust past the moth-eaten little; Man
churian town of Hunchun. Japanese officers told
me in 193 that Hunchun would ; be their base
if they ever made a swift drive into maritime
Siberia to cut off Vladivostok. '
This apparently minor thrust 'could develop
later into a campaign pointed at outflanking Korea.
The Soviet bombing pattern falls along the chief
railway junctions and distribution centers of north
ern 1 Manchuria Harbin, HaHar, Chiamussu and -Kirin
all undoubtedly i aimed at paralyzing Japa
nese troop movements.!' ? ; 1
The probable paths lot the two drives thus, far.
announced converge at Harbin, the railway nexus
of northern Manchuria situated on the Sungari
river, which is a tributary of the mighty Amur.
On the Sungari near Kirin is one of the two
large power dams which the Japanese built during
the last decade. The j Kirin dam compares with
Boulder dam in power output So does the other
dam on the Korean border In southwest Manchuria,
on the Yalu river Both furnish power for the
string -of factory cities which are built mostly in
the general area of Mukden, halfway down the
great double-tracked railway from Harbin to Dair-
en.' - f j , , . ;?
This Is the ultimate goal of allied power,' for

SPIES AND TRAITORS OF WORLD
WAR U, ky Part Stacw (Prea-
tice-BaU; S2.7S). i :
Admiral Walter Wilhehn ; Ca
naris, head of German secret
service, is the villain of ' this
thriller. He was no new hand
at espionage; in World war I he
was Mata Hari's superior and.
Singer says, knowingly sent her
to her death.
In this book he matches hisf
deadly wiles against U. S Brit
ish and soviet secret service
forces, but 1 particularly against
the Soviet NKVD chief, the re
sourceful Lauren ti Beria. Some
times he won, sometimes he lost,
but whether heads or tails, some
agent paid with his life.
Singer doesn't romanticize, for
which we can be grateful; the
facts in themselves sound excit
ing enough. This . war, too, had
its Mata Haris, " though they
didn't all have to stand before
a: firing squad. There was Ruth
Kuehn who ran beauty parlor
in Hawaii; the beautiful blond
Greta Kainen who worked in
Stockholm and Helsinki; Helvig
Delbo alias Greta Johannsen;
Madison Avenue's doll woman,
Mrs. Velvalee Dickinson.
I Singer devotes considerable
space to Tyler Kent, U. S. ; em
bassy secretary whom the Brhv
ish have imprisoned; the lease
got into politics; Kent's mother
has defended him ardently; the
case isn't settled yet, Singer de
clares. The Grand Mufit of Jerusa
lem, the late Subhas Chandra
. Bose, Takis the Filipino, Fritz
Mandl the munitions maker and
once husband of an American
film star, are among those listed
on the wrong side of the ledger
in the democratic-fascist con
flict Their names and part of
their stories have appeared in
the press, but this is an . inter
esting roundup. ! , f
The author, who has himself
participated in undercover work
on the continent and was sen
tenced to death by a nazi court,
has contributed some incidents
and background detail which are
new to me. One of them is the
story of a "Swiss" watchmaker. ;
He lived for years in England,
and finally discovered, by-piecing
together chance remarks and
gossip, the faults in the defenses
of Scapa.Flow. It was-he i who
guided Capt Prien's-submariae
in for the successful attack on
the battleship Royal Oak. f

Americans again; Can you tell
us if they got home all right?'
: That observation from several
sides in Zagreb proves once
more that American soldiers,
have an irresistible way about
them even when they are pris
oners of war.
It was last March 21 when a
group of. American prisoners
all airmen who had been forced
to bail out in the area were
brought to Zagreb by the Usta
chi (militia of the Quisling
Croat state). They were housed
in barracks on a corner of the
old family estate of. Baroness
Vera Nikolic, near Zagreb. . "
"When 1 heard that the pris
oners were Americans, I got
terribly excited," the baroness
said. "I immediately started try
ing to. figure out how I could
help them without arousing the
suspicions of the Ustachi."
The baroness, a charming
middle-aged woman whose title
dates back to the , Austro-Hun-garian
empire and doesn't mean
mneh these days, set to work.
By feigning indifference and
making her desires look like
suggestions 4 from the authori
ties, she got permission for the
men to Vork" in her fields and
vineyards and to attend mass in
her chapel. '
The Ustachi didn't know it,
but it was just a short step from
, there to setting up a volleyball
court and having a tennis tour
nament on the estate's courts.

son, Kas- was commanding of

his hands full in the final days
when Zagreb was falling to the
attacking Partisans' of Marshal
Tito's army and confusion was
the order of the day.

difficult days was the Rev. An
.thony (Fra Theodore) Benkovie,
a member of the Franciscan or

ObJeeU te City Hall Plan
To the Editor:
May I offer , a strong-protest
through -your columns -to the plan
now proposed to create larger
quarters for the police depet and
recorder's office in the city hall.
It is proposed to build a lean
to one story room on both the
south and ! north sides of the
main stairway, these structures
to.be st story and jutting out
from the main building. .
. This - - same ; proposition was
suggested several years ago
while I was chairman of the
public building committee but
we would not allow the architec
tural design of the city halt to be
so disfigured, t At that time we
received a number of protests
from citizens i objecting to' "a
couple of warts" on the city hall
building. s
While I do! agree that more
. room is ' needed for the police
department and recorder's office,
I believe this is the wrong ap
proach to the problem, especial
. ly while there are several thous
and feet of space unused and a
. vailable in the building. ' - )
First the idea that every de
partment must be on one floor
should be forgotten. As a sug
gestion j ' ';i , . f .J,
The entire space now used by
police- and recorder j should, be
turned over to the police de
partment i This means the re
corder would have to be located
elsewhere, and there is plenty of
room in other parts of the build
; bag. ' i ' : -
" The spot for first considera
tion in my opinion is the base
ment under the fire-department
At nominal expense large pleas
ant quarters could be arranged
in , this . well ventilated, attrac-
tive space, 'with a lot of room.- '
An entrance could be provided
on. Chemeketa st with a. long
: easy ranp, thereby eliminating a
stairway, and quick access to all
other departments. i ,

Building Plans
Oreeon's sUte board of control
Thursday gave i the "go ahead
signal ' to the $6,000,000 building
program approved by the voters
in June. Asking that plans be pre
pared at once for buildings already
earmarked to receive a portion of
the money and . for such other
structures as the legislature has
provided for by appropriation, the
board indicated: it anticipated a
Dossible soeedy end to the war.
i Among the . most-needed build
ings. Secretary t of State Robert
S. Farrell, jr,' declared ia the
100-bed children's hospital at the
Fairview" home, for whicb an ap
propriation has expired during the
war. but which will be built with
other funds.

Seventy-five children in .need
of such hospitalization as : could
be provided there are-on the
waiting list with little hope that
half of them can be received in
the institution within the coming
year unless the new building is
available, Farrell declared. Gov.
Earl Snell said enough others are
in private institutions (because
they could not be admitted" to
Fairview under present condi
tions) whose parents -.Will im
mediately seek to place them here
to fill the new building on open
ing day.
Blind School Eligible
The blind trades school of Port
land is eligible to participate in
the $8,000,000 fund, Attorney Gen
eral George Neuner has advised
the board of control. In fact the
board of control is responsible for
the operations of the trades school,
Neuner declared, which board
members said might put a new
light' on their relationship to the
school, in recent years conducted
solely under a special commission.

Dr. Ware,, superintendent of
Eastern Oregon State hospital at

ception of modern warfare,, and
the miniature application" of it
by Mussolini's . airforce in the
Ethiopian -war proved revolting
to the rest of the World, it is
true-that there was little delay
in resort to that type of war
fare. The Germans opened up
with their general blitz in which
the horrible example was Rot

by aerial attack, after local re

more at breaking morale -than

to survey the possibilities for

Oliver presented a few Interest
ing facts about Oregon's weather,
one of them being -that in one
spot la Oregon it does rain mora
than at any other , place in the
United States. The .weather sta
tion, which is no longer maintain
ed, at a place called Glenora, north
of Tillamook, recorded rainfall up

Oregon ranks 34th down, the scale

States. In most of the south-centra!

board states the average August
rainfall is four inches or above,
while in Salem the rainfall dur
ing August seldom exceeds three
fourths of an inch. Oliver further
stated that Japan has twice as
much rainfall as Salem's recorded
average of 17 Inches a year, and
that in some tropical .sections a
recorded catch , of 500 inches of
rain has been made.
Oliver concluded that all the
