LAUDED BY OPA Two auditors from the state gasoline ration department have made a careful check of the work of the local gasoline panel and have made the following report to the local war price and rationing board: "Upon completion of our audit of your mileage files,' we find that your board (gasoline .panel) has followed the regulations very closely, the files are com plete and exceptionally well kept. This made our work much easier and enabled us to ac complish It in a minimum of time. This all adds up to the fact that your mileage panel is doing a very fine Job for the O. P. A., for the board, and for the people of Medford and vi cinity."

The British citizen has, for many years, been the most high ly taxed wage earner in the world. He remains so n war time Today, a single man earn ing $2,000 a year pays $624.52 nearly one-third of his income in tax. A married couple with two children, earning $32,000 pays $11,328.

Washington (U.R) Russian soldiers injured In battle today stand far greater chances of re turning to combat then their fathers did In the war of 1914 18, according to statistics re cently released by the commis sar of health of the USSR. Assume 20 men are wounded. Of these 15 will return to active combat. During World war I, only eight men of the same group would have been able to resume fighting. In other words, an army casualty of 1914-18 in two cases out of five returned to battle: today the ratio is three out of four. First-Aid Speedy The high percentage of recov eries in the present war can be explained by the speed with which aid is given the injured. Often before enemy firing has ceased, doctors, nurses and aides are on the battlefield minister ing to wounded soldiers. Plas ma transfusions are given those in danger of shock; sulfa dress ings are applied to severe wounds, and as quickly as pos sible men are removed from the battlefield. Before being transported to highly-specialized base hospitals, the wounded are classified ac cording to the type of care needed and then dispatched to the hospital best able to give the needed treatment. Evacuation behind the lines is carried out by ambulance or airplane. Airplanes, particu larly in recent months, have proved their efficiency in carry ing men to base hospitals far Ijeyond the range of enemy fire. Mobile hospital units near the front handle emergency surgi cal services. During the last war between 45 and 50 per cent of the men who received bladder wounds died. By the development of new methods of treatment, the mortality rate has been reduced to 25 per cent. Figures quoted in chest wound recoveries are similar. Eyesight Preserved - Specialists have develoDed a high degrecof skill in preserv ing eyesight and in skin graft ing. Injuries to the extremities constitute a large proportion of me wounds. During the early years of World war I, amputa tion was necessary in six to eight per cent of all cases; to day it is slightly more than two per cent. In addition to full-time staffs. the hospitals have consultant staffs, called in to determine the best procedure to follow in severe or difficult cases. Each K-wnital is well supplied with srjvr.j . and whole blood and plasma." Gymnastics, ia many cases. restore coordination and strength to attectea joints and Inj-jred limbs. Experts in dietetics serve at all hospitals. Despite great privation in Russia, wounded soldiers are well fed. Children and elderly persons, unfit' for combat duty, fre quently serve as hospital order lies and volunteer nurses. Through the combination of these factors, the death rate of the wounded during recent months of the war has been but 1.1 per cent, the commissar con cluded, i UNENS MAIN FLOOR By Jerry Hannifin United Press Staff Correspondent Fourth Corps Headquarters, Oregon Maneuver Area, Sept. 28 (U.R) Sporadic patrol activity flared today as the Reds and Blues tested each other's strength, apparently preparing for the eventual major clash which will involve the heaviest units of both armies.
