V. E. Day and the Days Before V. J. Day
V-E day has come and passed. We observed the long
waited for event joyfully but with serious consideration for
the davs to come. Now that the European struggle is at an
end. our whole mind and interest is turned westward io the
Pacific. The big news will not come from the Rhine or Berlin
but from the islands and coast of the far east. We will note
the movement of our fighting men from the European the
ater. with their equipment, battle ships, bombers, U-boats,
tanks, guns and all the things that will bring terror to the
Japs. Then our great interest will turn to the action in that
wide range of fighting until the last Nipponese is dead or
back on his .home land, under unconditional surrender.
An important question now is how much help are we
going to get. As it stands now, Russia is out of the war.
Will she declare against Japan and attack on the Siberian
border or give us bases on the main land? While her position
is rather delicate, as she will want something io say about
Manchuria and an outlet io warm waters in the Pacific. She
has refused io renew a treaty with Japan, but unless Russia
takes a real part in the war, the struggle will be much longer
for us.
England has declared that she will throw all her forces
with us but so far has sent into the Pacific only part of her
navy, and that in the more southern waters where she has
many possessions. With out aid. England has opened the
back door to China, but her equipment and supplies will be
needed over the roads to that vast interior.
France is also under the necessity to do something in
protection of her interests in French Indo China. What can
sho do or what will she do except claim much and talk a lot?
Holland can do litio to rescue the Dutch East Indies, and
other allies have small to no interest in the vast area of the
war yet to be won.
We hope that these suggestions are gloomier than the
facts, but we feel that Uncle Sam, with what power he can
give China with its many million soldiers, must bear the
heaviest load in the final battles for freedom, before
day.

IN MEMORIAL TO
I KNOW
SOMETHING GOOD TWO SOLDIERS
ABOUT YOU
By Beth Russell
(From The Bulldog)
Wouldn't this old world be bet-
ter
If the folks we meet would
say:
“I know something good about
you”
And then treat us just that way.
Wouldn’t it be fine and dandy,
If each handclasp warm and
true
Carried with it this assurance,
“I know something good about
you!”
Wouldn’t life be
happy.
If the good that’s in
Was the only thing
That folks bothered
lots
more
us all
about us
to recall?
Eldon L. Allen moved to Irrigon,
from Hamilton, Oregon, where he
was born February 3, 1917, when
only a year old. He spent all of
his school days at Irrigon. He en
tered the armed forces January 7,
1942, and was killed December 25,
1942. Private 1st class Eldon L. |
Allen was in the 41st Infantry and
won the purple heart through an |
act beyond the call of duty. We
honor this hero who was buried at
Buna, New Guinea, near the place
of the heroic battle.
Raymond L. Allen, born at Irri
gon July 11, 1919, brother of El
don L. Allen, also attended Irrigon
school. He joined the Cavalry in
1942, and was killed on Luzon in
the Philippines March 8, 1945, and
is now resting at Antipolo near Lu
zon. Philippine Islands, and Mani
la. The purple heart was posthu
mously awarded to his mother,
Mrs. Hugh Grim.
Wouldn't life be lots more happy
If we praised the good we see.
For there’s such a lot of good
ness
