CIVILIZATION AN rdini remark In some war correspondent's report of what li happening in turope muio -i. n ii in mm lonK after the name and the rest of his sto ry have been forgotten. H e .described a celebration nf nnrne sue cessful Allied achieve m e n t and, to show the resource fulness of the Or Bradf service of sup ply, he said the banquet there in the very front lines Included even while bread. Then another dispatch from somewhere In It aly mentioned what the corre spondent legnrded as a special benefaction to the hungry civil ians the dispensing of white bread Instead of coarse whole grain bread to which the people had been accustomed. These bits of news within the news are far more Interesting than the news Itself. It Is conceivable that the weak-mouthed, lame-jawed, more , or less edentulous American war correspondents and military per sonnel would be delighted to get some white bread they could eat without serious strain to their feeble masticating equipment. It Is easy to understand that the civilians In any European dis trict lately liberated from Nazi or Fascist subjection would be happy to get bread of any kind or color. If American occupation of France, Italy or other European countries introduces general use of white bread instead of the more nutritious, more healthful whole-grain bread the people have always used as the main stay of their diet then our com ing will not be an unmixed blessing. It seems regrettable that we cannot share with these victims of authoritarian oppres sion the fruits of civilization and freedom without at the same time encouraging them' In the Don't Relax Guard Is Advice to Keep Br John E. GrlbbU Keep Oregon Green Committeeman Some people have been say ing the forest fire danger sea son Is over. Let us hope that It Is. But keep on your toesl Look out for every smoke. Don't let even a match or a cigarette go out alone; chaperone every one, just to be safe. Records show that most of the worst forest fires have occurred In September. The stage, or for est, Is set for gigantic confla grations. High temperatures and low humidity prepare the way. The year 1910 was 'unpre cedented for fires, the worst coming In August and Septem ber. Millions of acres of trees burned. Smoke was seen 300 miles at sea on the Pacific. SUMMONS In the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Jackson County. SHERMAN S. SMITH and.

As one nutrition author ity, Norman Jclllffe, expressed it "A 65 fraction of the cal ories in the American diet In 1840 (when whole wheat flour was used) containing a minimum of 600 international units of vi tamin Dl, has been replaced In the contemporaneous American diet (refined white flour substi tuted almost exclusively for whole wheat flour, refined white sugar almost exclusively for old fnahlnnnrl hrnwn sugar and mo lasses) by a like fraction contain ing onlv about SO international units of vitamin Bl."

Against Fire, Oregon Green Losses were appalling In forests and property values. Many hu man lives were lost and vast numbers of birds and animals burned alive. Too Soon Forgotten Forest fires have been classed with floods, pestilences, famines or earthquakes, but are soon for gotten, and too little wisdom Is acquired and practiced from past experience too little thought given to breaking that match In two before throwing it away, making sure thnt cigarette or pipe dregs are absolutely out. History's pages, evqn before man typed them, were rinrken cd and stained with smoke and dirt from forest fires. Cali fornia's big trees recorded fires as long ago as 245 A D. Ever since white men came to Amer ica .they have acted as though the God-given forests were their enemies Instead of heir best friends. Man hns Imitated Old Nick himself In "keeping the home fires burning." It is doubt ful If the devil In hell could have outdone nnn In some of the horlrble holocausts he has created. Millions of acres of America's loveliest and most valuable forests have been wan tonly, deliberately and ruthless ly wasted, destroyed and burned by man. Our Pacific coast area has suffered Its share. 1929 Dry Autumn In early October, 1029, a light rain came. No more rain fell until about midnight on Decem ber B. Through December 9 to IS snow fell continuously In the high country in Klamath county, and good rains fell in the lower country. So we could have another late, dry and warm autumn. Let's not relax our vigilance un til the rains come. HONOROREGONIAN' r-ortlnnd.

Dliher United Press War Correspondent London, Sept. 18 (U.R) Dutchmen on their way to church gaped at the sky cava cades thundering from the west. They waved frantically as a rainbow of parachutes blos somed out and plummeted earth ward with thousands of tough, heavily-armed fighting men. That was Holland's second air-borne Invasion of the war. This time the invaders were al lies, Dutch commandos among them, arriving to drive out the Nazis who struck from the sky without warning four years ago. Come for Hours The new invaders cams down 400 and more at a clip and they kept coming for hours, pouncing on bridges, canal crossings, rail way lines and road junctions. They won and held landing grounds for the giant gliders that followed them in with in fantrymen, guns and equipment. And the Germans, who had held Holland in an iron grip since May, 1940, fled in panic from village after village in the path of the liberating army. The first parachutists descend ed on Dutch soil at 1 p. m. yes terday striking deep in the en emy rear, behind the flooded lowlands that the Germans had hoped would protect the "soft" northern flank of their Sieg fried line. In Three Areas Allied headquarters did not Immediately specify the location of the air-borne strike, but Ber lin said landings were made in at least three areas at Eindho ven and Tilburg in southwest ern Holland, and at Nijmepan, on the north bank of the Rhine only five miles from the German border. United Press War Correspond ent Walter Cronkite, who land ed with the first glider train, said the sky troops, most of them veterans of the Norman in vasion, liberated sevcra' towns within an hour after their land ing and expected to take thefr "first big objective" by nightfall. "Opposition Is comparatively light," Cronkite reported In a pooled dispatch filed from Hol land at 4:40 p. m. yesterday. "Half an hour after we had landed the small arms and mor tar fire in our sector had ended and only the distant rumble of battle somewhere to the south where the Allied armies are ad vancing toward us was audible. Nasi Guns Silenced "Some of oui gliders and some C-47 tow planes went through antiaircraft fire to reach their landing places, but our dive-bombing Mustangs and our vast aerial support silenced the enemy guns one by one." More than 1000 planes and gliders made up the invasion fleet, the biggest of its kind ever ftfl'f KM ED 8:30 pm.

At the zero hour, smaller forces of Mustang fighter-bombers swept down on the remain ing German gun positions in the target area and knocked them out, even while the paratroops were dropping. . . .
