OREGON August 26. 1043 BEDS RETREAT 411 MILES FROM GREATGENTER (Continued from Page One) fused to break In bitter hand-to- hand fighting in the trenches when the Germans attacked a second time, Soviet dispatches said the red armies were being pledged on the field to fight to the death. Allied Action As the crisis mounted, with Adolf Hitler racing to strike a decisive blow ahead of the Uni ted Nations" sathsritt? thunaor- heads, London newspapers said the jaunty homecoming of Prime Minister Churchill from Moscow last night indicated that allied action to relieve the V. S. S. R. was imminent. Significantly, one of the first to greet Churchill was Vice Admiral Lord- Louis Mount batten, chief of British com bined operations, who directed last week's "invasion curtain raiser" assault on Dieppe, France. Today Mr. Churchill confer, led with war cabinet colleagues on secret plans he brought home from Moscow, and the feeling grew in London that spectacular developments might soon follow. Disclosure that he visited Iran (Persia) and Iraq as well as Egypt on his three-week journey suggested that the middle east, now ' threatened by a gigantic nazi pincers movement from the Caucasus and Egypt, would play an important role in forthcom ing operations. A nazi bulletin also asserted that German troops had planted the swastika four days ago on 18,471-foot Mount Elborus, tha highest peak in Europe, and de clared that several passes in the western Caucasus had been mas tered by German vanguards.

And tha dis senters were Chief Justice Stone and Justices Blnck, Douglas and Murphy, $10 License) The Klamath Falls ordinance requires a licenst of $10 for "itinerant vendors, dealers and distributor;;" of m&gailnfls, etc., who do not operate from any regular place of business. The license is subject to revocation at the discretion of the council. Vendors of newspapers and Bibles are exempt. The ordi nance was proposed after citi zens complained to the council against activities of Jehovah's Witnesses. James Davis, representing Jehovah's Witnesses, told the council in a lengthy, prepared statement that the ordinance vio lates the right of freedom of press and religion as provided in the bill of rights in the consti tution. He declared it provides for a tax upon the privilege and the rights set up in the constitution. It is a first step, he asserted, in progressive . intolerance. Court to Reconsider At the close, he told the coun cil that it is understood the U. S supreme court is to recon sider in September its decision on a like ordinance, and said that a number of other cities are tabling action until then. "Back up the boys doing our fighting," shouted Angus New ton, past commander of the American Legion, in urging the council to adopt the ordinance. He attacked the Jehovah's Witnesses as pro-fascists and called them "termites." He said that American Legion investiga tion had shown the true colors of the organization, and advised his listeners to "hold on to your seats" while he related the. Le gion's findings, which he said proved conclusively the Wit nesses are un-American. Adoption Urged Representatives of the car penters' union, who first com plained to the council about Je hovah's Witnesses, were present to urge the council to adopt the restrictive ordinance. Karl John son, spokesman for the group, said he had bought and read one of the Witnesses' tracts, and asserted he found things there indicating disloyalty to this country and its allies. He noted in particular men tion of the "Catholic dictator" of Canada, and an item question ing the honesty of price adminis tration in Washington, D.,C. Final speaker called upon by Mayor Houston was H. J. Mc Gillvray, commander of the local post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. He said he had not had much time to study the matter, but that 'any organiza tion which would not salute the American flag is subject to ques tion as to its loyalty. McGillvray and Newton were applauded as they concluded their talks, and Councilman Rollin C a n t r a 1 1 immediately moved for adoption. Cantrall had already . made the motion, before the discussion started, but repeated it at that time. It was seconded' by Councilman Martin and carried Unani mously. No Discrimination There was virtually no council discussion prior to the talks by the visitors. Councilman Wiesendanger asked if the ordi nance would affect the sale of the War Cry by the Salvation Army, and City Attorney Carna han said that there could be no discrimination in enforcement of the ordinance, Davis, the representative of the Witnesses, in answer to a question from Mayor Houston, said his headquarters were at Brooklyn, New York. He left immediately after making his talk. Once, when Councilman Cantrall asked a question, he dismissed it with the statement, "Your question will be answered later." The council 'chambers were well filled with spectators. Back at Work Ray Sorensen, clerk in the S. P. passenger office, has returned to work following a trip to Portland where his wife underwent a major operation, 1 , NEW! The Service Men's GIFT DEPARTMENT at RUDY'S Xs 8th and Main ADOP VENDOR LEGI5LAT ON Editorials on Newt (Continued From Pag One) ers is not rcltited in today's navy communique, Presumably ihey got away. QNE gathers from tha scanty w disclosures that the Jap fleet kept right on coming. At any rate, it is related that on Monday (yesterday) our air planes hit and damaged a Jap TRANSPORT and a crulsor north of Guadalcanal. The transport indicates that tha Japs are out for blood and intend to land troops (if they can) to drive out our marines. THAT Is the story, as told In today's communique, which adds that the action "is contlnu ing." That is to say, the battle is still on, There Is nothing as yet to indicate that the Japs have turned tall, as ihey did on au gust 8, Everything v have ai these words are written Indi cates that they are still closing In. The real battle appears to be still ahead of us perhaps is being fought now. . e RE sure to remember that the picture of the fight revealed to us in today's communique Is one-sided, . we are told what has been done to the enemy, but nothing is said of the losses on uUP side. If you're not careful, you'll get tha idea that once again we've plastered the Japs. That ISN T necessarily true. We ve inflicted losses on them, but we have undoubtedly suffered loss es ourselves. All the news so far indicates that they're still coming on Instead of turning back, There Is no estimate of total Jap strength Involved. We'll simply have to wait (or more news. .' IOTE that there is no men tlon of warships shooting at each other In the traditional manner of naval warfare. So far the STRIKING dont has been entirely by planes. That is to say, the battle as so far described, is the NEW KIND of naval warfare, .
