The siege of Stalingrad has reached a stalemate, with the of fensive in the hands of the Russians. In the Cauca sus the German armies are making little advance. In Africa the Axis forces are gaining but the Allies are pounding the life out of them, which is also true at Malta in the Mediterranean. The Russians are in overcoats and winter quar ters, and Hitler cannot withdraw armies from the , Volga and the Caucasus for support of Africa or the western front. The Soviets will drive his weakened forces backward and perhaps to utter rout. Revolution is rife in all the conquered countries. Italy has been reduced to a puppet state of Germany, and is willing to quit. Japan is being steadily van quished in the south seas and held back in China. Such is the condition of our enemies as winter ap proaches. On the other hand the Allies are gaining and growing stronger on every front. The British have tremendous defenses in the middle east, and a mil lion men and another similar army in India. They have taken Madagascar, and now control the supply life lines to the Red Sea and to China through India. Our convoys are reaching England with immense supplies of tanks, planes and men, ready for an in vasion of Europe. Convoys also reach Russia by way of Murmansk, and through the Siberian railway, and over the Red Sea and Middle East railway to the Caucasus. This country is in full speed with war production of all kinds, including ships to replace those des troyed by submarines. Spring will find us in much greater production. In the meantime, we are assured that many more cities of the Reich will be attacked from the air. Nor are we slacking in our effort and determina- tion to win final unconditional surrender. This may come in 1943, but not until it comes and peace is es tablished will we halt dur work. Bond buying, tax es, preparation on all lines must go on and on until we fini h the big job, and finish it beyond any possi ble return in another 20 years. bia district.

STANFIELD NEWS WAR CREATES "PRoDLEMS An important instance of this is the your house or commercial property th.it you own Even if you have spent no money on improvements, then sale or replacement value is probably higher than a year ago and youi insurance coverage should be increased pro- portionately. VOULD you give up your pres- ent income for two months to work from 12 to 16 hours a day for $1.94^ Of course you wouldn’t— neither would anyone else. And you wouldn’t ask anyone to work for this less-than-bare-living wage. $1.94 was the rate of pay for members of the 1941 Oregon legis lature. This did not pay for one fourth of their actual living expenses in working day and night to give you fair and just laws. Play fair With Your Lawmakers You can assure that your representa tives in the Oregon legislature will receive fair and reasonable pay by voting 300 X YES on November 3 for the measure to increase the pay of Oregon legislators from $3 to $8 a day for a 50-day session, only. In these critical times, Oregon needs its most able citizens as legis lators. They must be given adequate pay. Remember, sound legislation comes from sound legislators. Poor Man's Chances Blocked by Pay How Under the present inadequate pay for legislators, a poor man can’t afford to serve in the legislature. This is not American representative government! This is not true de mocracy! The present rate of pay was fixed in 1859 or 83 years ago. $3 a day then would be equal to $30 a day now. Oregon pays its legislators less than any other state in the Union. Oregon Heeds its Best legislators. Cive Them Adeguate Pay This pay increase measure has been endorsed by American Legion Congress of Industrial Organiza tion American Federation of Labor Oregon State Grange League of Women Voters And many other fair-minded groups.
