A German militarv spokesman
quoted by the Berlin radio re
ported a "narrow passage of
communications" between the
Nijmegen and Arnhem groups,
Indicating that advanced elements
had made a junction. Hn said the
passage was under heavy gunfire
and virtually useless as a supply
route.
Only a few narrow canals be
tween Nijmegen and Arnhenj
barred the way to the broad Ger
man plains sweeping eastward 200
miles beyond the Dutch border to
Berlin, and it appeared that the
Germans had left little in the
Immediate area to halt the Ameri
can and British thrust.
The Germans, faced with the
possible loss of 100,000 men
pinned against the Dutch coast
West of Nijmegen as well, as a
direct invasion blow toward Ber

able man, gun, and tank into the
battle.

P. Aug. Peterson was nearby
lo call out to Governor Dewey
that he was the father of Curt
! Peterson, whereupon, Dewey
reached out- to shake hands and
said he knew Curt well, the two
having studied voice together.
The younger Peterson has been in
New York for years, more recent
ly in Washington, D. C, where he
is in the service.
Mrs. Laura Harris, one of Lane
county's staunchest republicans,
was taken up to shake hands with
Dewey, and it was announced
Wednesday was Mrs. Harris' 89th
birthday. L. N. Roney, who was
91 on Sept. 2, also was among
the crowd to greet Dewey.
So great was the crush as the
train drew to a stop at Eugene,
the crowd got out of control and
broke through the ropes, nearly
stampeding newspaper reporters
and photographers who . were
nearest the platform.

Dewey Easy-
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
Is it one can't put the finger en
in the way of doubt?
The visitation in th: train car
brought the conclusion to this in
dividual that the lack of warmth,
oi rather spontaneity detected in
the Portland appearance probably
is due to modesty, bordering al
most on timidity, on the part of
the New York governor. And
some will say that sounds queer,
considering Dewey as the former
racket-busting district attorney
pnd now governorof the Empire
state, and considering the very
calm and deliberate manner In
which he spoke at Portland.
Anyway, we just suspect he Is
shy of putting on any too ani
mated dramatic show.
Dewey has a beautiful speaking
voice and his delivery is very
nearly perfect except for a little
more spontaneity well, maybe,
we just thought there should have
been a little more unbending, a
little more emoting in the Port
land talk (and that was a poor
example to use for any ciriticism,
since, after, all, Dewey and his
party had been through some very
severely gruelling and nerve
jolting experiences just preceding
his appearance on the Portland
platform.)
And, then maybe, when the
e a m p,a i g n really warms up
Dewey becomes warmer, too.
Mrs. Dewey is very attractive,
one of those persons who radiates
charm and personality and she
likewise has what it takes to be
calm under 'all circumstances.
She received a head injury in the
Castle Rock . wreck, one that
caused a headache for hours, but
she smilingly went through the
rest of the evening's program in
Portland, Tuesday (including that
awful ordeal of handshaking for
nearly two hours as a mnh filaa
by), and Wednesday was on the
train, appearing refreshed and
ready to meet a new day's ex-
periences. ,
Still the country girl who was '
reany mniiea witn tne train ride,
this person couldn't help, but en
tertain a fleeting supposition: "If
GOV. Dewev is elected, thpn T ran
say, oh yes, I have met the presi-,
dent, I rode on a special train '
with him, and visited with him '
for a minute or two."- Oh well, all
republicans ' have a right to their
dreams. ,
.
Press representatives greeted
newcomers getting on at Portland
with the wise-crack: "Don't you
realize what might happen to you,
joining this crowd?"
The press group received the
brunt of the train wreck damage.
and several on the train Wednes
day had bruises and scratches on
their faces and heads.
One correspondent pointed out
to us has recently returned from
the European war fronts, un
scratched, and in the Tuesday mis
hap received a brutal crack on the
nose. .
At the Ice arena lrr Portland
Tuesday night, the press section
resembled a boxing arena just
through with a battle royal more
than it did a press row some
heads being swatched In bandages,
adhesive ' tape being here and
there over face and hands, and
one or two limping from leg in
juries.
Westbrook Pegler, noted col
umnist, put on a very special
show as he staggered into the
Multnomah hotel, Tuesday after
noon, after thumbing a ride on a
truck from Castle Rock. " , what
a trip!" he moaned. When some
one called out, "what do you think
of the wild west?" Pegler shot
back, "give me New York!" .

the world's largest, was founded
