What's Wrong With the Reds?
We are asked what has become of the highly-touted
Russian offensive?
How about these "prodigious strokes" Mr. Churchill
declared Stalin was delivering? If your paper It telling tha
truth the Russians are still fighting in the streets of Stalin
grad. It this just soma more of the carefully cooked -up
"freedom propaganda?"
According to Mr. Leland Stowe who has just re
turned from Russia, where
studying the Russian army
lull is merely a breathing spell. Almost any aay now
another big smash against the hard-pressed Germans,
he says, can be expected. And it will not surprise
him to see Rostov and Smolensk retaken.
SO that is the best answer we can give to the above
query. Mr. Stowe having just returned from
Russia, after frequent talks with Stalin, should know
what he is talking about
It should be evident even to an inquiring layman,
that during a Russian winter, for either side, a fast-
moving offensive, or sustaining any large offensive
at all, are feats of great difficulty. With the best luck
in the world no summer-time tempo could be ex
pected. And while the Russian army is not only better
fitted for winter warfare temperamentally and tra
ditionally, but in the matter of winter equipment than
the Germans, still when a blizzard rages and the mer
cury drops down to 50 below, even the Russians can't
make much progress. .
CO it would probably be wise for our communicant
! to he natient and not
early stage of the game.

Gas Shortage In Africa
This is still a war of surmises. In the current news
are several minor ones.
This gasoline shortage on the Atlantic coast
leads tiie procession not the fact so much as the
cause.,
For most people supposed it was assurance of gas
In the European war zone, that necessitated- the
original gas rationing.
And then not because of a real gasoline shortage
so much as a transportation shortage.
That can hardly be the case in this instance how
ever. For depriving the private cars of gas in 17 east
ern states would not ease any transportation bottle-
necic

' gas crisis in North Africa with an SOS for
more, remaps tne speea

fight with Jack Dempsey. Think of it the German

"Noblesse Oblige"
Just what that news article was President Roose
velt resented is not known
But whatever it was the
say the least, PECULIAR publicly presenting the
German Iron Cross to the offending reporter, through
some other reporter, at his press conference.
That might be excused at a grid-iron dinner, or a
week-end party, but it is very strange indeed in the
reeular course of the official White House schedule
an incident to be subsequently placed on the news
wires and sent all over the country, and all over the
world 1
IF the offense was so reprehensible that it called for
a presidential rebuke, then one should have been
made in a dignified fashion with names mentioned
and details given, in the regular course of the Chief
Executive's conference.

INFLUENCE OF SUNSHINE AND EXERCISE ON THE CON
DITION OF
Due to prejudice and ignor
ance, which prevails among the
people in the Southwest as well
a s elsewhere,
a great many
persons living
In the South
west fail to get
as m u c h sun
light on naked
skin at they
might easily
enjoy, but on
the average It
Is p r o b a ble
that people in
the Southwest
Dr. Brady absorb more
ultra-violet than do people In
any other part of the country,
imnlv because more Is avail
able more of the time and ex
posure is more comfortable more
of the time.
The invisible ultra-violet rays
of direct sunshine or indirect
skyshine convert a substance In
the skin called ergosterol Into
vlnsterol. which Is vitamin u.
Thi mnllsht-cenerated vitamin
D is then carried in the circula
tion to every part of the toay
where it may be needed. A sup
ply of vitamin D is essential for
the normal assimilation and uti
lization of calcium and phos
phorus. Normal assimilation and
utilization Is a fundamental fac
tor in the development, growth
and health of the teeth and In
the prevention of caries or decay
of teeth.
If this alone does not account
for the better teeth of school
children in the Southwest, an
other factor may have some
thing to do with it.
I believe people living In the
Southwest get more exercise of
teeth, gums and Jaws than do
people elsewhere, simply be
cause more fresh vegetables and
fresh fruits are available more
of the time in the Southwest,
and these foods require more
chewing than do refined, pre
served foods.
Aside from the effect of regu
lar exercise of the teeth, gums
and jaws in chewing, upon the
nutrition of teeth, gums, jaws,
palate, face, and on the develop
ment, functional efficiency and
physical beauty of teeth, jaws,
face and the whole body, the
whole body, the chewing of
greens, fresh vegetables, espec
ially raw vegetables, and fresh
fruits Is nature's own way of
keeping the teeth clean.
Scientific Investigation of the
cleansing effect of chewing,
made by Holmes T. Knighton, D.
D. S. (Jour. A. D. A., Nov. '42)
led Dr. Knighton to conclude
that the chewing of apples,
sliced oranges and paraffin aid

found that even careful brushing

chewing an apple, for instance
Of course, wash the apple with

TONS of mail are tent to
Alaska, largely airmail, by par
ents and relatives of enlisted
men and officers holding that
outpost. It would appear that
most. If not all these letters are
being opened and read by one
of several hundred employes of
Byron Price, director of the of
fice of censorship, without au
thority of law. Senate and house
had approved a censorship bill
permitting opening of all mail
sent from the United States to
its possessions, but the first
thing congress knew was that
Price's crew were busy slitting
envelopes, reading letters and
making excerpts and the sen
ate recalled the measure before
it could reach the president's
desk. It is said that tome of
the officers in Alaska protested
at letters from their wives be
ing opened: certainly Territori
al Delegate Diamond and Gov
ernor Gruening have denounced
the practice.
In all Alaska there la not
one Japanese. Such enemies as
are in that vicinity are at Kis-
ka and other Aleutian islands
where no mail from the United
States Is distributed and where
the Japs apparently intend lo
cating for the duration. There
are no military secrets these
Japanese could get that they
do not already have. But the
censorship, according to the
committee that is making the
investigation, apparently aims
to keep the troops In Alaska
in ignorance of what is trans
piring in the United States.
Censors have scissored out news
items and magazine articles in
publications destined for Alas
ka, and all without one iota of
legal authority. Alaskan cen
sorship is so tight (it works both
ways) that very little news of
any sort comes out of the ter
ritory. aaa
FARM Security Administra
tion is listed as one of the
agencies that can be disposed
of by the new congress through
the simple process of refusing
to appropriate money. .Farm
security is operating in both
northwest states and for several
years there has been contro
versy as to whether this activ
ity should be dropped. It assists
tenants to buy farms, furnishes
.them a cow, horse and various
implements and Is supposed to
watch over them like a mother
hen. FSA has clients in half a
dozen counties in Washington
and as many more in Oregon.
In addition, FSA has a number
of mobile camps which have
been welcomed by farmers who
need labor. There are such
camps in the Yakima country,
near Walla Walla, near Nyssa
and in Willamette valley which
are reservoirs f workers for
seasonal crops. To these FSA
has furnished money for movie
tickets, transportation and, in
the southern states, paid the poll
tax of these people in order that
they may vote.

United Press Staff Correspondent
San Francisco, Dec. IB (U.R)
The heavy cruiser San Francisco
sailed right between two lines
of Japanese ships "like a duck In
a target gallery" while the Japa
nese battle fleets shelled each
other, three wounded marines
related tonight.
"I saw a Japanese battleship
blow up one of the Japanese
cruisers with a broadside that
arched over our own ship at we
stood between them," Pvt. 1st
Class Forrest F. Poore. of Sac
ramento, Cel., a marine anti
aircraft gunner aboard the San
Francisco, said in a marine corps
approved statement.

REVOLWlN
La Paz, Bolivia. Dec. 19 (U.R)
The government announced to
night that a plot by the leftist
revolutionary party to unseat
the government and destroy Bo
livia's republican political sys
tem nan Deen discovered.
Several directors of the party
were arrested In the Potosi tin
mining area and in La Paz.
Announcement of the plot came
five days after a strike of thou
sands of tin miners started with
a 100 per cent wage Increase
demand, causing . the govern
ment to declare a nationwide
state of siege and to establish
martial law in five mining dis
tricts. The tin strike occurred at
Catavi, belonging to the Patino
interests and it has blocked pro
duction of tin ore for the war
efforts of the United Nations.
A government spokesman said
that the tin strike was promot
ed by the revolutionary party,
and the government tonight was
seeking to establish documented
connection of Nazi agents with
the strike.
YEAR END RALLY
WALL ST. STOCKS
New York, Dec. 19 (U.R)
A year-end rally in stocks which
lifted the industrial average to
a new high for more than a year
highlighted financial develop
ments this week.
The advance, which terminat
ed an irregular decline that got
underway on peace talk that fol
lowed the United States invasion
of North Africa almost six weeks
ago, was attributed largely to
technical rather than external
factors.
Traders were heartened by Im
proving war news, but major
impetus tor the betterment in
stock prices came from a dwin
dling of year-end tax selling and
reinvestment of funds by oper
ators who had withdrawn from
the market during the past
momn or to.
