MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, SUNDAY, JUNE 28, 1942.
URGE HITLER TO
BALKJNVASION
Second Front Threat Feared
Italian Troops Wait
Nazi Orders.
London, June 27 W) Ger
' man military leaden are urging
Adolph Hitler to occupy all
France to meet the growing
threat of an allied attempt to
establish a second front in west
ern Europe, an unusually well
informed foreign source declar
ed today.
At the same time the Inde
pendent French News Agency
at Beirut reported that 300,000
Italian soldiers were concen
trated In northern Italy ready to
move into France to reinforce
the German army of occupation.
The intimation that the nazis
might be preparing to take over
the third of conquered France
which still is unoccupied was
said to have come through
"Trustworthy underground
channels" the same channels
which recently reported that
the Germans were moving hea
vy guns from the Maglnot and
Siegfried lines to the French
west coast.
The source credited with re
laying this information also said
he had been informed more
than 1,000,000 French residents
have been evacuated from the
coastal areas In connection with
the German defense preparations.
The area between Boulogne
and Dieppe, he said, "has been
particularly well-cleared by the
nazis of everybody suspected of
being likely to aid allied invad
ers." The same source asserted
there was a possibility that Hit
ler might recall General Johan
nes Blaskowilz hero of the Po
lish campaign, who has been in
virtual retirement since report
edly disagreeing with the Fueh
rer over the invasion of Russia
to assist in reorganizing the
defenses of western Europe.
In line with this reorganiza
tion Hitler was said to have re
placed 26 German divisional
commanders within the last
three or four weeks in a dras
tic shakeup.
The source warned, however,
that all these reported develop
ments should not be considered
a sign of weakness on the part of
the Germans at the present
stage.
"They should be taken for
tho present for Just what they
re evidence of German pre
paredness which the allies must
be equipped to overcome if and
when they Invade," he said.
CHURCHILL READY
TO FACE CRITICS
London, June 27 (IPf Win
ston Churchill came home today
from his third meeting with
President Roosevelt to find his
persona political situation seri
ously challenged by his critics
but also new hope for united
nations' offensive operations
against Germany.
Not only did he have to Im
plement, from the British side,
the plan for creating a second
front against Adolf Hitler. From
the minute he stepped from his
trans-Atlantic plane, which he
piloted part of the time, he
busied himself in preparing for
a debate in the house of com
mons where his government's
direction of the war Is being
questioned by a motion deny
ing confidence in his leadership.

With 500.000 pounds of scrap rubber as their goal, oil companies in Jackson county will wind up their salvage campaign
Tuesday night. Shown above are seven oil trucks with their drivers rounded up in front of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce
en route to dispose of their loads picked up at service stations throughout the area.
E
AS CLOSE NEARS FOR CELEBRATION
With oil distributing compan
ies of Jackson county lending
every effort for a whirlwind
windup, the scrap rubber drive
will end Tuesday evening, and
according to Ken Parrett, coun
ty chairman of the salvage ef
fort of the oil concerns, a mini
mum of 500,000 pounds is the
goal.
A tabulation Friday night
showed 417,339 pounds had
been turned in at service sta
tions throughout the area, or
gathered up by oil company em
ployes and by Boy Scouts. Fri
day's total would mean a per
capita salvage of 11.3 pounds
for the county which compares
with the last state report of 6.5
pounds per capita and II
pounds for the highest state so
far reported, according to Chair
man Parrett.
Although the drive will end
at the close of business Tuesday,
the oil company employes will
pick up any rubber which may
be reported later on that day.
Most of the employes are do
nating their time to the effort,
and the Boy Scouts will call for
any amount of rubber reported
during the day-
Chairman Parrett again stres
sed that the small bits of rub
ber which may be found about
the home are most Important,
that type of rubber being much
more valuable for reclaiming
than the coarser material such
as tires.
Anyone In the rural areas
still having rubber for salvage
is asked to take it to the nearest
oil station or contact some oil
company and arrangements will
be made to pick it up.

Think things THROUGH on buying a new carl
If you are Eligible under Newly Liberalized
Rules it's Smart to BUY NOW! And here's whyl
The Government wants us all to save gasoline.
The Government wants us to save rubber.
The Government also wants to make most efficient use of
transportation facilities now available including cars now built
and ready for sale.
You do not help the country by continuing to "get along" on a
car no longer fully efficient, safe or dependably able to serve you
in any necessary use.
If you can qualify under latest rationing rules, you are recog
nized as an essential driver.
As such, you are not only entitled to your share of available
gasoline and rubber, but are in reality expected to make the best
use of them.
Your Buick dealer can show you that you can more efficiently
do this in a brand-new, gas-thrifty, solidly dependable new
1942 Buick than in an older car which
may have seen better days. j
