on this Is that cokes and chew
ing gum are both now rationed
and are getting Increasingly
difficult to buy while cigs
that I have no use for are
plentiful."

earth, while hillbillies and

rescuing them from their folly.
"Under tribal laws. If the hot,
dusty 'khamseen' blows longer

The Older Girls deplore the

TOO BAD ITEM
(Oregon City Enterprise)
'The Oregon City chamber of
commerce offices were raided by
federal agents, who confiscated
a rubber cushion and also a rub
ber mat. The government
agents took the loot to a service
station and converted it Into
cash. Now, the question Is what
will the secretary of the cham
ber of commerce do? His
cushion Is gone."
Tokyo reports events In China
"are confusing." They can't
make heads or pig tails out of It
either.
"MURDERER OF 3 TO GET
FARM." (Hdline Red Bluff
(Cal.) News.) One school of
agricultural thought holds this
will serve him right, U he works
It.
"There Is no point In kidding ourselves. The Red army
Is doing well, but there has to date been nothing decisive.
Even the Russian High Command, while claiming gains In
territory, is significantly silent about prisoners. In short,
while the Germans are definitely on the defensive from the
White Sea to the Black, there is nothing resembling a rout.
The situation, from the allied standpoint, is encouraging, but
we can see little justification for the belief that as far as
Russia is concerned. Hitler has shot his bolt, and the disaster
that met Napoleon is about to be repeated."
That is ah extract from this column printed last
February. We feel it worth recalling for two reasons.
No. I. The present offensive of the German army,
on the eastern front, certainly sustains the assertion
that the winter offensive of the Soviet army, was far
from being the decisive and favorable action that
U. S. press reports tried to make it at the time, and :
II. While the present German drive appears to be
really going places, the German High Command to
date, has also been significantly silent regarding Rus
sian prisoners, at least any large numbers of them.
And until that does take place, until the Russian
forces are disorganized or at least badly shattered,
the mere loss of territory in a land as huge as Russia,
while regrettable, is nothing to become particularly
alarmed about
Thus as this department cautioned against undue
optimism five months ago, it would caution against
undue pessimism today.
Hi$ Face Should Be Red
Again referring to Hanson Baldwin's "Strategy for
Victory" commented upon yesterday, the book cer
tainly pushes Secretary of the Navy Knox farther out
on a limb than he has been, if that is possible.
""THE head of the navy who boasted a few days
1 before Pearl Harbor that he was all set to blow
Germany and Japan out of the water in a two-ocean
conflict, the moment either started anything, has
repeatedly belittled the recent Japanese seizure of
bases in the Aleutian Islands.
This action, his Excellency has maintained, was
merely "face-saving" on the part of Tokyo after the
crushing defeat suffered at Midway.
AJIR. Baldwin, who is regarded as one of the most
f 'competent military experts in the country far
from terming the Aleutians of "no strategic value,"
names them as essential to the winning of the war.
In fact he practically says, the United States can t
defeat Japan without them, or perhaps more accur
ately with Japan in control of them, victory can't be
obtained.
True, they are rain-swept and fog-bound a large
share of the time, but they can be extremely valuable
to Japan as naval, submarine and airplane-carrier
bases, not only for attack on Alaska and the United
States, but on Russia, and the author apparently re
gards war between Nippon and Russia, as ultimately
certain. .
In short, if Mr. Baldwin's judgment is correct,
instead of dismissing this Nippon occupation of two
islands in the Aleutians, as a mere face-saving gesture
by hard-pressed Tokyo, the U. S. Navy Dept. should
have granted it a serious blow to U. S. prestige and
security and set about at once to drive Japan out of
the islands before there is a chance to really become
entrenched.
Will ED. R. Repeat?
We wonder if our present War President is going
to make the tragic error his predecessor did?
We can't believe it Yet for three weeks now the
Democratic National Committee from its headquar
ters in the Mayflower Hotel has been sending out
a build-up in that direction, namely that if the war
is to be successfully waged Democratic candidates
for the congress must be re-elected.
AS many will recall, that was what the late Presi-
Vtaib M HCVH UICU IAS UU elianc 11 G VUliUUV.b VI
World War No. 1 a party issue.
The attempt failed completely, and was the start
of Woodrow Wilson's tragic downfall.
We can't believe such a consummate politician as
F.D.R., and one so intimately associated and familiar
with the Wilson administration, could repeat such
a devastating blunder.

CARDIOVASCULA R DEGENERATION
w
MEVERTHELES.S, on the desk before us are the
documents in evidence, two of them sitmed bv
that faithful White House rtolitical adviser and
shrewd political strategist Charles Michelson.
Needless to say there is. from the subtle Michelson
pen, no direct appeal to "vote the Democratic ticket
straight" on the ground of sound and enlightened
patriotism, iso, nothing so crude.
But there is, both direct and by implication, a
constant barrage against the Republican party and
its canaiaaies, on me grouna mat me party was
isolationist before Pearl Harbor, and has been ob
structionist since then, and a Republican vote does
mean a vote against the war.
f"N the other hand in none of the releases can one
find even a SUGGESTION that members of the
Republican party in either house, have staunchly sup-!
ported the President's war policy since Pearl Harbor, 1
or nis foreign policy before that time. !
e therefore think a conference between the foxv '
Charles and his foxier boss is "indicated," before this
movement to make patriotism a Democratic party
issue, gets beyond control, and the Wilson disaster
of a quarter of a century ago is repeated

doctors can't cure these various
manifestations of cardiovascular

seldom get a chance to do any
thing about it, because rarely
does the victim of cardiovascular

But you cannot blame it all
on congress. The farm bloc
Justifies itself, for instance, by
rightly claiming that the admin
istration policy on labor and
wages has also been Inflation
ary. Furthermore, behind these
generalizations, the situation is
criss-crossed with innumerable
political self-interests. Current
White House worry, for in
stance, Is deepened; by congres
sional failure to levy all taxes
Mr. Morgenthau wants and by
obstreperous antics of the farm
bloc on the feed-selling program.
Congressional antagonism to
Henderson likewise lies in his
failure to give them patronage
in his vast organization.
Above all, everyone Is con

""PHE Idea that the rubber scrap
campaign is somewhat poli
tical and has produced little real
rubber of use for tires is thor
oughly disproved by the de
tailed results.
It is true that old tires and
tubes are about the only scrap
articles containing sufficient
rubber for use in re-capping or
I making new ones. Some rain-
coats, shoes and garden hose are
helpful.
But most of the other articles
contain so little rubber and so
much foreign substance, their
practical value must faU In
other less critical lines.
The evidence shows, however,
more than half the scrap rubber
acquired comes within the suit
able category. From July 1
through the 7th, according to

PXTRAORDINARY success of
the campaign out west (short

by authorities to two factors:
Public spirited enthusiasm
generally runs stronger In those
communities than along the
more densely populated coast;
also reclaiming by junk dealers
was more intensive In populous
centers before the campaign
started. High shipping costs
worked against depletion of
western stocks.
