Fagt Twa THE REGISTER-GUARD, EUGENE. OREGON. Jefferson Shrine Dedicated By FDR WASHINGTON, April IS. W) President Roosevelt, dedicating marble temple to Thomas Jef ferson, declared today that those lighting today's war would learn what Jefferson knew that the "seeming eclipse of liberty can well become the dawn of more liberty." "Those who fight the tryanny CALLOUSES To mIW, nainf ul --" burn ing or teoderneea 00 bottom ol loot ud remove eallousea got tbwo ibis, soothing. eusatOBlaj pod. of our own time will come to learn that old lesson," the presi dent said. Surrounded by high officials, diplomats of many nations and many descendants of the author of the declaration of indepen dence, the chief executive said in the dedication of the shrine to freedom that the nation is pay ing a debt "long overdue" the third president. The words chosen for the mem orial, he said, were Jefferson's noblest and carried the cham pion of freedom's most urgent meaning. These words are: "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." The president said: "Today In the midst of a great war for freedom, we dedicate shrine to freedom. WE LIKE TO DRIVE OUR AUTO MOBILES FOR BUSINESS OR LIMITED PLEASURE .

' You may never have realized that regular greasing, plus transmission and differential lubrication, can improve your gas mileage as well as protect your car. Much of the gasoline you use is only to overcome friction inside your car. Proper and frequent lubrication can keep that friction down to a minimum. Manufacturers' specifications for most cars call for greasing at each 1000-mile period. And you know we are experts at lubrication. OAIOUNI Coupon B, A Ration Book, good through May SI.

"To Thomas Jefferson, apostle of freedom, we are paying a debt long overdue. 'Yet, there are reasons for gratitude that this occasion falls within our time; for our genera tion of Americans can understand much in Jefferson's life which in tervening generations could not see as well as we. , "He faced the fact that men who will not fight for liberty can lose it. ' We, too, have faced that fact. 'He lived In a world in which freedom of conscience and free dom of mind were battles still to be fought through not principles already accepted of all men. We, too, have lived in such a world." Japs Complete (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) fields would provide the enemy with a string of stepping stones from Tokyo, which even fighter planes could span. Kiska and Attu are 195 miles apart, Attu Is the island which the Japanese once almost completely evacuated after their original oc cupation. Reconnaissance showed reinforcements there again last In 1942, after the strength previously had been shifted to Kiska to offset the new American base in the Andreanofs. The ant-like Industry of the enemy opens a wide field of con jecture as to Japanese' Intensions. They may be getting set to repel a naval bombardment with Zeros, to repel any beach landing attempts, to harass our advance - bases if possible, to hit our shipping lines or to launch an offensive against Alaska, in a repetition of apparent plans which went awry at the time of the Dutch Harbor bombing last June 4. : Foe Aids Jsds Outfitting and supplying the fields poses a major problem for the Japanese, but the enveloping fog of the Aleutians is an aid In the effort' What airmen refer to as "stinking weather," all too fre- quent in the Aleutians, is an aid to plans of running the gauntlet with ships. The last reported Japanese effort was March 28 when two of three cargo ships approached the Aleu tians under heavy cruiser and de stroyer escort, A U.S. navy task force of half the enemy strength sent that Japanese convoy, which apparently carried vitally needed supplies, scurrying westward. To date, IS Japanese ships have been listed as destroyed by navy guns, torpedoes and bombers in the Aleutians theater. The Kiska runway is being built by cut-and-fill tactics along a ridge. Bulldozers, SO light trucks, hand-propelled trucks and narrow-gauge rails are believed to be in use In the all-out effort.

Post-War Plans- (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) speakers expressed themselves strongly in favor of devising a program not only to create work but to give the city a sound and beautiful setup for its future growth. It was pointed out that the Eu gene-Springfield area already has more than 42,000 population in spite of war drain, that the re turn of veterans from war, espec ially in Asiatic country, will bring the danger of malaria, dysentery and many other diseases new to this country for which protection will depend on adequate sewage and sanitation and health pro grams. Further' discussion of the "$5, 000,000 Stockpile" before many different groups are contemplat ed. The speakers pointed out that although the project seemed to call for 12 mills of extra taxation In the Eugene area, this extra miUage would be more than off set by special levies now com' pleted and by some 15 mills for aeot service which will not be needed after 1946 or 1947. Dr. Walker Attends Surgeons' Meeting Dr. Milton V. Walker of the Walker Clinic left Tuesday for San Francisco to attend the American College of Surgeons meeting In that city.

Claypool, society sec retary, made the request for "a definite amount of financial back ing together with an unlimited amount of moral support" from Eugene. Besides provision of suit able quarters, the group asked for the following monthly operating expenses: Salaries $150.00: light and water $10.00; food for animals $20.00; auto expense $25.00; heat $5.00; telephone $6.75; veterinarian and medical expense $25.00.

Briefly discussed was tne proD lera of mosquito control, which is expected to become serious with arrival of men suffering from tever who are being shipped back from fighting in the South Pacific. Mayor Elisha Large said he con sidered this a "county problem," and expressed hope that action would be taken to avoid any threatened epidemics ot tropical fevers, which may be caused as mosquitoes transmit the malaria organism from Infected persons to well Individuals. Request from Dr. C. R. Llndgren, director ot the county health department was read, asking for "immediate aid so as to eliminate the middle link of the chain, the mosquito, at its breeding grounds." The council accepted bids for city lots from Robert Broderick, west 75 feet ot lot one, block IS, College Hill Park, $100; Mrs. W. L.
