Smoking Ve suvius rose but 10 miles from the allied mountain positions. : While troops occupied the peninsula stretching 22 miles west of Salerno, other parts of vine fifth' army slashed eastward and northward from their Sa lerno beachhead in the Monte eorvino and Battaipaglia sectors where the Germans apparently were making a full-scale retreat under a merciless air lashing i reminiscent of the days when the British were trying to get out of Greece under the blows of the -nazi air force. ! The British fifth corps, closing In from the Italian heel, cap tured. Gioja, 28 miles from Tar anto on the road to allied held Bart, and a headquarters spokes man said the Germans had com pleted the evacuation of Sar dinia, the huge island and air base which Mussolini had re garded as the No. 2 defense out post of Italy. Sardinia Fails (The German high command admitted that Sardinia had been given up). With the. capture of Sardinia! vy juaumn 'Uwpa acuug unucjr orders of Premier Marshal Fiet ro Badoglio, the position of the Germans In Corsica, only seven miles to the north, apparently became untenable and the allies gained the potential use of 10 airfields from which to press attacks on northern Italy and southern France. It was not likely that much nse was being made of Sardinia by allied forces as yet, however, because of the floodtide of oper ations on the mainland now beat ing against Naples. : (A Morocco radio broadcast aaid the German commander had ordered a state of siege in the Naples area).

As always, we're awaiting with interest what he will have to say. ' Churchill is the war's best re porter. ' OUR navy (carrier-based planes and all) attacks Tarawa and Nauru islands in the Gilberts. The attack lasted all Saturday night and most of Sunday. That length of time indicates that t)ie Japs weren't able to fight back very hard. . WE get today some thrilling re ports of the growth of our navy. The tonnage of our fighting ships in the first six months of this year is 20 TIMES greater than in the corresponding' six months three years ago. We have 14 TIMES as many naval ships, of all kinds. We have 10 TIMES as many naval planes of all types. In July alone, our navy re ceived more planes of all types than it hid ALTOGETHER three years ago. 'THAT'S SOME record. On the strength of it, we might even go so far as to pat ourselves on the back a little. A little judicious patting on the back when they've worked hard and efficiently inspires Americans to work even HARD ER and MORE efficiently. The - idea that celebrating REAL ACHIEVEMENTS hurts American morale is an absurdity. ; CO much' for the shooting war J which we're GOING TO WIN, sooner or later. Let's now face a sober fact: , We COULD win .the war on the shooting; (fonts' and LOSE it on the financing front. 11 ' UOW, you ask? : By financing the war the WRONG way. 'THE right way to finance war is to BUY BONDS and DO WITHOUT OTHER THINGS. In that way lies a sound fu ture. The WRONG way Is to FAIL to buy bonds, thus compelling the government to finance the war out of the deposits of the commercial banks. , In that way lie Inflation, re pudiation and poverty. TOTE all know, without being " told, that paying for wars with printing press money brings . INEVITABLY inflation and then ruin. What we don't realize, because it is a complicated subject, is that financing wars out of the deposits of commercial banks is EXACTLY THE SAME process as issuing printing press money.' But it is true, whether we realize lt or not. VOU must never let this thought out of your mind:' The war WILL BE FINANCED bond buying or no bond buy ing. If It isn't financed the right way, it will be financed the wrong way. . "THE wrong way, WHETHER A YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT, leads straight to Inflation, re pudiation and abject poverty,, We mustn't let our boys come nrrrrrrrrw Now!

A total of 3519 students were registered' this year as against 3694 in 1942, showing a decrease of only 173 pupils over the on tire county. Enrollment figures In the south suburban area were sur prisingly close with 1149 stu dents this year and 1150 last fall. Altamont's school population increased frqm 827 last year to 863 this year but this was to be expected as children who attend ed Summers school last year are going to Altamont this fall. Sum mers school is closed. Other schools in the county were up or down slightly but with no appreciable difference either way.- Weyerhaeuser camp 6 school, which could not start until last week because the building was not completed, hati an enroll ment of 21 on the first day. Harold Ashley, county school clerk, said that there was some possibility that the total num ber of county students may in crease slightly later this year, due to the fact that in some farm communities a few young sters will not be able to start school until the harvest season Is over.

Rhodes Itself, largest island in the group, was reported last week to be under German con trol after the nazis overcame the Italian garrison in several days of bloody fighting.

Marshall, King Warn Congress Not To Dim Offensive (Continued From Page One) Marshall said, trained men are on hand for deployment on all of the fronts of the world, "We are just getting ready for our deployment," he testi fied, adding that operative per sonnel had been trained and placed; that the baslo establish ment was a going concern, and that now manpower had become largely a matter of maintenance and replacements of casualties and other losses. "Our shipping can now be turned to the deployment of our ground army for the first tlmo In history," he said. Need Stand-bys Marshall said it was necessary to keep stand-by troops on hand in this country to meet the de mands from vsrlous theaters of war. "These troops are all on de mand for certain times and places," he said. "We do not want to use hastily gathered people. We had to do that in the early part of the war, but thank God we do not have to do that now."
