Med ford To Observe Army Day
Monday, April 6 the day set aside as Army day
for national observance will mark the 25th anniver
sary of America's entry into the first World war.
That this present struggle IS a new phase in an
unfinished fight is clearly indicated by this statement
by the late German General von Fritsch, made in a
discussion of Germany's great army at the outbreak
of hostilities in Europe :
"We have been working on this machine of ours for 20
years. The victories that we will win and we must win
them will be no miracles. They will be the results of two
decades of unceasing work by the best military minds devel
oped by the last war. Hitler didn't start this, you know.
General von Seeckt began rebuilding, reforming and planning
on the day that the treaty of Versailles was signed."
Yes, it is the same war, only now more violent
and terrible than ever before. The armistice of 1918
wa3 exactly what the word means a temporary ces
sation of hostilities a truce.
a
A GAIN, America has been plunged into the strug-gle-r-and
the American army has gbne into ac
tion. And again, through the work of appeasers and
peace-mongers, some of whom were honest in their
convictions, this new crisis found us woefully lacking
in trained men and equipment. General von Fritsch
also made this statement:
"You Americans are very clever people, probably cleverer
than we. But even you cannot learn in two or three years
what took us twenty."
THERE is admittedly a measure of truth in the gen
ral's pronouncement.
It will take almost a miracle to build a powerful
army, versed in the complex technique of present-day
warfare, in a short time. But, with dogged deter
mination, America has set herself to perform this
miracle to show that von Fritsch was sadly mis
taken. Again, as in 1918, America's military might
will become th. force that will turn the tide.
The heroic defense of Wake island, the courage
of Bataan's valiant defenders, the daily deeds of
America's fighting men on world fronts all prove
that our soldiers and marines are more than a match
for anything "that moves on feet or wheels or wings"
if given anywhere near an even break in aerial sup
port and mechanized equipment
A ND so, upon the occasion of Army day, we salute
" these men of America's armed forces these
fighting free men. We salute MacArthur, Wain
wright and Stilwell and their fellow officers who will
lead them to victory. In gaining eternal glory they
are giving to America the inspiration for mightier
effort and the courage for greater sacrifices.
A RMY day will also be "Total War" day, for that
is the theme of the forthcoming observance.
That is, indeed, fitting for truly this IS a total war.
Everyone must have a part to play in the factories,
in the shipyards, in vital civilian defense, in the all
important war financing effort, and in furthering the
highly necessary work of war relief and welfare
agencies.
Appropriately, Medford will hold an Army day
parade next Monday evening; this will be followed
by an enlightening demonstration of civilian defense
work.
It is high time that every man, woman and child
in this community realiaes the grim realities of this
grave crisis. Observance of Army day should im
press upon everyone the present glorious role of
America's army and inspire each to greater sacrifice
and service. H.G.
Statins A Close Second
Last October Herr Hitler, with a huge fanfare of
trumpets broadcasted the startling announcement all
over Europe that Russia had been defeated, the
Soviet armies knocked out as far as further effective
resistance was concerned.
Since then Hitler has done nothing but try to
escape annihilation at the hands of these Russian
armies he claimed were all washed up and put on the
shelf.
This is the outstanding example of official and
wholesale lieing since World war No. II. started.
OUT when the day to day average is considered, we
are not sure that Hitler's publicity bureau, ma
terially surpasses Joe Stalin's, in the direction of un
abashed mendacity.
A review of the Soviet reports for the past 90
days at least show that the German casualties
claimed, if placed end to end, would reach from Riga
to the English channel, including every man, woman
and child in the Third Reich.
As to the villages retaken by the Red army in
these communiques and unnamed, the total during
the same period now stands at 5li430, greatly in
excess of all the villages in existence, Russian Pole,
Polock and what have you from Vladivostok to the
North Cape.
A ND now, if London reports are to be believed, Hit
" lor is moving 100 fresh German divisions, or over
1,500,000 men, to blast the Russians out of the Cri-
i inea, as the first step in his
fensive.
Where did these fresh troops come from? Mos
cow claimed last February that Germany had been
bled white and had called on Hungary, Rumania and
Bulgaria for reinforcements.
We still award the Baron Munchausen Double
Cross of the First Class to Der Reichsfeuhrer, but
think at the same time that in any race for the grand
perjury prize, Jumping Joe should at least be given
second place!

WHAT TO DO ABOUT
Inflammation of little roller
bearing structure or lubricating
pad Just under the tip of the
shoulder, a pad
called the sub
acromial bur
sa, is one of
the commonest
causes of pain
ful, stiff or
'frozen' shoul
der. The subacro
mial bursa Is
one of several
such cushions
or pulley rol
ler bear ings
about the shoulder between
muscle tendons and bony corn
ers or prominences over which
the muscle tendons work. A
fairly familiar condition com
muniy known as "housemaid's
knee" is prepatellar bursitis in
flammation of a bursa under the
tendon attached to kneecap, or
sometimes a bursa Just under
the loose movable skin over the
knee-cap. Another is "tennis
elbow," bursitis under a tendon
sliding over the Joint. '
First thing to eliminate from
the mind is the senseless idea
that any such trouble is due to
"rheumatism" or can be rem
edied or helped by medicines
purporting to be good for "rheu
matism," whatever that may be.
It's your shoulder, of course,
and this is a free country, so I
shall not lose a day on the bowl
ing green even if you insist your
trouble is "rheumatism."
A medical work published in
1941 ("Arthritis and Allied Dis
orders" by Dr. H. M. Margolis)
cites a survey of the nation by
U. S. Public Health Service in
1935-36, which indicated that no
less than 6,850,000 of our popu
lation at that time (127,000,000)
had "some form of rheumatism."
A most unfortunate statement
for either the U. S. Public Health
Service experts or a textbook
purporting to be authoritative to
make. After all, neither the U.
S. Public Health Service nor Dr.
Magolis, nor any one with the
slightest pretension to medical
knowledge today, can or does
describe or define "rheumatism"
as a pathological entity. Both
the U.(S. P. health service ex
perts and Dr. Magolis used the
quaint, misleading term "rheu
matic" to cover all sorts of Joint
diseases, the causes of some be
ing known such as tuberculous
arthritis, gonococcal arthritis,
the causes of others being not
specifically known such as ar
thritis deformans, atrophic ar
thritis. To classify all these dis
eases as "chronic rheumatism"
is as senseless and as misleading

as it is to classify all diseases
of the respiratory organs as
colds."
This Is no quibble about
terms. It is a protest against en
couraging sufferers from Joint
disease in the delusion that the
trouble is "rheumatic" and that
any help can be expected from
climate, or from avoiding this
and that food which some char
latan or some eminent old time
doctor has Imagined to make the
system "acid" or to cause de
posit of "uric acid" in the
Joints or elsewhere. When a
physician tells a patient with
chronic Joint trouble that the
trouble is "rheumatism" the
physician it simply stringing the
credulous patient along, and
that's that. If the doctor goes
scientific and calls the trouble
"arthritis" that may impress the
unsophisticated patient but it
actually means no more than
calling it "Joint trouble."
Now don't go away mad.
Eventually we'll get to th-; treat,
ment of "frozen" shoulder.

, Br Joha W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, April 1.
Into the CCC camps . of the
Douglas fir and pine region of
the northwest, extending from
the coast across the mountains
into Idaho and western Mon
tana, will soon be thousands of
lads whose principal occupation
will be guarding against forest
fires incendiary, lightning or
campers. Aside from the forest
fire work and some labor on
military reservations, the once
great army of CCC enrollees
which was more than a half
million a few years ago, is a
thing of the past. Throughout
the country there are now 600
camps and these will be re
duced on July 1 when the new
fiscal year begins.
But for the hazard of forest
fire practically every camp in
the far west would be closed
and boards battened over the
windows. Timber owners, the
forest service and military of
ficials stepped in to save the
CCC out in the timber lands.
All recognize that the greatest
menace to the region is forest
fire. This qualifies CCC as do
ing war work. No new camps
will be established, for there
are in existence sufficient for
the purpose, located where they
can do the most good. Approx
imately 150 camps will be main
tained and as each camp has a
company of 200 men this makes
a force of some 30,000 watch
ing for the red wolf of the for
est. In money it will represent
$30,000,000 for one year's main
tenance, a small sum compared
with the damage that could be
occasioned by a forest conflagra
tion. Originally it was the Inten
tion to give the enrollees a
touch of military training (that
was when the camps started)
but Harry Woodring, then as
sistant secretary of war, brought
down the wrath of peace lov
ing Americans when he made
the announcement and, in view
of this overwhelming resent
ment, the plan was abandoned.
Several million young men now
in the ranks or to be inducted
would have had a modicum of
experience had the training
taken place.
Young men are now being
sought for enrollment for the
northwest camps to be ready
when the fire season opens.

BY seven votes the house of
representatives, in the commit
tee of the whole house, rejected
an amendment which would
prevent any funds for Bonneville-Grand
Coulee administra
tion from being used directly
or indirectly to influence pub
lic utility elections. The author
was Representative Jones of
Ohio, who was opposed by Rep
resentatives Leavy and Hill of
Washington and Pierce -of Ore
gon. In offering his amendment
Jones said: "I am interested in
seeing that the federal govern
ment does not spend money to
thimblcrig elections in Wash
ington and Oregon. I believe
the figures of the bureau of the
budeet show some 245 part-time
i employes of Bonneville power
administration for this kind of
work.
"It is damnable that money
should be spent in that way
when it is claimed in behalf of
these appropriations that they
are all for national defense."
Jones said the payroll of the
field men was $57,698 and with
other expenses made a total of
$103,000 "for t h i m b 1 e-rigging
elections."

WHEAT farmers are writing

cipal difficulty Is obtaining adc
quale priority ratings. Spokane
Bank for Cooperatives suggests
making warehouses of wood or
concrete, but nails, ircn. roof
ing and pipe are in the hard-to-crt
category. Says A. C. Adams
'of tht Spokane bank, "Wheat
stands relatively low on the lad-1
der of necessity for war pur-1
poses at the present time, and ,
therefor no matter what the
nrinrilv rating mav be. it must I
be expected that actual supplies
of critical materials will not be
enough to go around."
N. E. Dodd. director western
division of Triple A, says that
bulk facilities are contemnlated
in Washington, Idaho and Ore
gon and that he is trying to
convince WPB of the import
ance of these storage bins. If.

to his pre-war share, but that
seems to be enough.
Some see military advantage
for him In the strengthening of
hi Finnish and Norwegian po

this would not be worth the el-

THE thaw is now on at the
Ukrainian front in south
Russia. Within a week or two,
the roads will be good for
tanks. In fact. Hitler could have
started before this if he intend
ed to keep his old military pace.
If the weather has not delay
ed him, what has? Is he hold
ing back the leash on the great
forces he has amassed at the
southern Russian front in order
to time that drive with some
thing else?
Just about this time every
year, der fuehrer disgorges
what he likes to call a surprise.
In 1940 it was Norway; last
year, Yugoslavia and Greece. It
is inconceivable that he has
been consulting the muses all
winter without indulging his
penchant for surprises.
The south Russian drive might
bear more world weight if
coupled with occupation of
Sweden, but particularly if
timed with a Jap attack on
Vladivostok.

TTHE Japs have not reinforced
their south Pacific armies
lately No more steaming trans
ports have been discerned mov
ing toward Java or New Guinea.
In fact, the New Guinea drive
has bogged down in a flood in
the jungles halfway to Port
Moresby from Lae and Sala
maua (on the north shore of the
Peninsula).
The Japs there have barely
enough forces to take Port
Moresby (which they no doubt
will do eventually), but not
enough to go ahead from there
into Australia. It is doubtful
also whether they have enough
In Java, for further conquests
Consequently a question is
arising as to when or whether
the Japs intend to move at Dar
win, From bases at Timor and
elsewhere they can continue
bombing so General MacArthur
will be unable to maintain form
idable airfields along the north
shore for attacks on them. They
may figure this is enough and
not even attempt landing on
Australian soil.
Suspicious Jap troop move
ments have been noted north
of Nanking, indicating rein
forcemcnt of the northern front
It is just possible these troops
are destined for Manchtikuo
and spring action against Vlad
ivostok. a e
THAWS should start in about
two weeks on the Moscow cen
tral front, but the muddy per
iod generally last much longer
there than in the south. It may
be six to eight weeks yet be
fore the fighting terrain is good
, in mat area.
But no one here can see the
possibility that Hitler's annual
spring sensation will break
there. He needs oil. It lies a few
! miles ahead of him on the
i Ukrainian front Unless he gets
lit this summer, he will have a
I hard time going through another
winter.
Importance of oil to the nazis
! has been stressed so often, and
Hitler has so frequently found
a way out, that the subject has
! lost its vital significance to
many people. He seized supplies
; in Holland. Belgium anH rmnn
and then acquired the Ruman
ian fields, to skip the oily grave S
which so many experts had dug
,for him. But there are no more!
supplies to be confiscated, and j
the Rumanian fields cannot sup
port indefinitely the extended '
i ninci oi war he had been forced
j to in Russia. Therefore, the
near east must be his main ob
jective, or he must find a ma

Small orders will not be ac

can be obtained from mills in

price is higher, it was further

growers are advised to see their

The nails will not be delivered
