Newspaper Page TextMEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGHfNT, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1941. PAGE FTVS )) O ) o In The Day's News Br Frank Jenkins THERE are Interesting hints In the news today (Tuesday) and not much else. THE heavy lighting in Libya appears to be taking place about 10 miles south of Tobruk British front line dispatches say the Germans are being gradually cut off from their supplies by the British column advancing along the Mediterranean coast line. Cairo says the three-day tank battle is beginning to die down as a result or neavy losses on both sides. British infantry re inforcements are said to be pour ing Into the area. . Cairo claims the German tank forces are badly crippled and says there are NO SIGNS OF FRESH GERMAN TROOPS be ing sent into action. WATCH this point. It's all- important. If Hitler is unable to reinforce his Germans in Africa and has to stand by and see them wiped out. it will be the FIRST time inch a thing has happened. It would be an almost certain sign that he has his hands com pletely full. THERE'S another Interesting hint in today's news. j Monday's dispatches told of tremendously increased German pressure on Moscow, carrying the nazi advance to within 30 odd miles of the soviet capital. Today the Russians claim an advance of SIXTY MILES in a rounter-attack westward from Rostov, at the far southern end ot the long battle line. . TPHAT might mean that in order to bolster their attack on Moscow the Germans had to weaken their lines before Rostov. This (if true) would be another sign that Hitler is running short of reserves. WHATEVER you do, DON'T jump to the conclusion that Hitler has shot his bolt and is losing his striking power. That would be wishful thinking of the sappiest sort. But at least these SEEMING failures to be there "fustest with the mostest men'- are Interesting. "THERE are hints from Wash- ington today that sending V. S troops to Dutch Guiana is in tended to head off something that might happen in French Guiana. Your map will show you that Dutch and French Guiana lie side by side at the northeast corner of South America., There have been plenty of hints that Vichy France may throw in with Hitler. Hitler, of course, would like nothing better than to start something in South America. rVN. the home front, this dis- patch comes from Washing ton: "President Roosevelt told con gress to start writing its own ticket today on strike-curbing legislation." Key house members Republi cans as well as Democrats with whom he conferred last night re port that he appears to favor suggestions for a cooling off period and COMPULSORY ar bitration when strike calls tnreaten defense production, A LONG that line, the Office of " Production Management has sent a trouble-shooter to St. Louis, where an intra-union jur isdictional row has called out 8.500 men and tied up many im portant defense orders. Today's dispatches report: "Joseph Keenan, OPM labor expert, has arranged a confer ence (at St. Louis) with officials of the AFL machinists and the AFL hoisting engineers unions. 'The two unions were in dis pute as to which should repre sent TWENTY-FOUR garage workers." o A GREAT many people will believe that a dispute in volving representation of 24 men hardly Justifies calling 8, 500 men out on a strike involv ing defense production.

M 1 .- m.. o "To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual ways of preserving peace ..." When George Washington spoke these words the world was a much smaller place. Transportation and communication facilities were such that it took considerably longer for anything to happen than it does today. But there are certain thoughts that were as true then as they are now. This "preparation for war for the preservation of peace" is one of them. That is why the United States is hurrying to make itself the strongest nation on earth. Your newspaper plays an Im portant part in the preservation of peace by keeping its readers in formed of their country's progress in preparation of war. Under the freedom guaranteed it in the Con stitution, the American Press fear lessly voices the sentiments of the American people. MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE if; a Cwtav s Uuia Urat fum 10 aa4 aa
