Moore (United Pram Staff Corrpoolnt) Washington, Jan. 12 IP Amer ican forces in Luzon face a hard campaign despite the remarkable ease of their initial landings, Sec retary of War Henry L. Stimson has warned. But he said the eventual bene fits of occupying Luzon will more than offset the costs. With Luzon liberated, he said, Japan will be cut off from the oil, rubber, and other resources she has stored in the East Indies: The liberation of the Philippines will have been ac complished: And closer bases will be available for air attacks on the enemy in Indo-China, China, For mosa, and Japan. The Japanese retirement in Bur ma is already one visible result of the advance into the Philippines, he said. Stimson said the Lingayen land ings were the result of fine co operation between ground, air. and sea forces, including Austral ian naval sauadrons. Allied forces, he commented proudly, have gone a long way since American and Australians stopped the Japanese moving on Port Moresby, New Guinea in the I Officers Selected ! By Gideon Society Some 50 members from Madras, Redmond and Bend attended the annual dinner meeting of the Cen tral Oregon Gideon association last night at the Pine Tavern. Stanley Scott, retiring president, presided. Principal speaner was cnapiain William Cook, of the Redmond army air field who talked of a chaplain's work and told of the distribution of Bibles and testa ments at the field there. Thomas Dryden, Jr., state president, and George Hacking, state field sec retary, also snoke. Sgt. John Boyd of Fort Lewis, who spends much of his spare time in Gideon activities there, spoke of his experiences in dis tributing Bibles. The Gideon association, it was pointed out, is now one of the few remaining organizations from which service men may obtain testaments or Bibles. Since Au gust, 1941, over seven million such books have been distributed to service men. The first 1911 distribution was made to members of the Pacific fleet so that,- near ly four months before the Pearl Harbor disaster, fleet personnel was equipped with Bibles and Testaments. ' t Officers Elected In the past three decades more than 1,900,000 Bibles have been distributed to hotels, penal insti tutions, schools and other institu tions by the Gideon association, Scott said today. Following the banquet officers were elected for 1945. They are George Freeman, president; Nor man Coleman, vice-president; An drew Foley, secretary; Stanley Scott, treasurer and John Mor gan, chaplain. Out-going officers were Stanley Scott, president; George Free man, treasurer and Al Nelson, chaplain. Coleman and Foley were retained as vice - president and secretary, respectively, offices which they held during 1944. Lighted Firewood Put In Crib Causes Death Canandaigua, N.

Guadalcanal is 2,700 miles from Lingayen gulf, ( he noted, and Buna on the eastern ! end of New Guinea, wrested from the Japanese in January, 1943, ! now lies some 20 amphibious hops ! beyond Luzon. Of the prospective Luzon cam-! paign, he said: "Our men are fighting at the end of supply lines which extend 6,000 or 7,000 miles across the Pa cific. But the Japanese undoubted- j ly have accumulated war materl-1 als right in Luzon. They are only ! 300 miles from their long-time base in Formosa and 1,600 miles ' from the main island of Japan. ''They have numerous troops. They have many airfields which can be reinforced by hops from ! Japan although the price to them ' will be heavy. They are near ' enough to Formosa and Japan to expect troop reinforcements al though there again the cost will -be heavy." Military observers expressed the belief that the Japanese fleet, badly mauled in its last battle with American naval power, will have to come out for another ma-: jor clash if the enemy hopes to 1 send reinforcements into Luzon. Wood Boxes j For Gifts Liked By Isle Fighter The Brooks-Scanlon Lumber Company Inc. was praised in a VMail letter received today by The Bulletin, for the furnishing to Bend residents of wooden boxes for Christmas gifts overseas mail ing to service folks. The letter was from Kenneth R. Braaten, a Bend soldier stationed in New '. Guinea. In the letter, Braaten also said that he had met Julius i Ness, of Bend, in New Guinea' and "had quite a visit." j Regarding the wooden gift boxes, Braaten wrote: "I wish to take this opportunity to thank the Brooks-Scanlon Lumber Company Inc. and their employes who made it possible for our home town people to get wooden boxes to send Christmas gifts to men overseas. I have received mine and everything in it was all right. Some of the fellows received card board boxes and these were pretty badly crushed. So far I have received two of them, and wish that everything could be sent to us in wooden boxes."
