M'1 quota LACK OF CH1 CAUSES FIRES f ROADSIDES NAVY NURSES NOWQN DUTY AT BARRACKS "Travelers on eastern Oregon highways have been sabotaging the war effort," said Charles Mack, Keep Oregon Green Klamath county chairman, in commenting today on the large number of roadside fires in grass and wheat lands in this section which have been started by a carelessly thrown cigarette or match from passing cars. "I doubt if any of the sev eral fires in this county which have burned into valuable grain and grasslands were siariea in tentionally," the county leader pointed out. "In the majority of cases these fires were started when some smoker flipped his lishted match or cigarette outi the car window instead of using the ashtray. It is the duty of every person to help stop these fires which are destroying our much needed food supply." "With eastern Oregon drier than usual because of a shortage of rainfall, the danger wis sum mer is greater than 'ever," the Keep Oregon Green leader stated. "Manpower is equally short and " much needed in tne narvesi. Men can not be spared for-ire fighting. One carelessly started roadside fire last month de stroyed 20,000 acres of ripe grain and 10,000 acres of grasslands. This is pure criminal careless ness." "After the war, food will be" critical because this nation will no doubt be called upon to help feed liberated Europe," the fire prevention spokesman said. "Let every, man and woman in this county do his share to Keep Ore gon Green.", ; .. .. , .

Secret of Russian Advances Described By General Deane Halt On Liquor ' Salts In Hw York Urtd for V.Day NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (JPy The hotel association of New York City has recommended thai its members sell no alcoholic beverages for 24 hours after re ceiving news that fighting has ended in Europe. A , similar proposal is under consideration by the United Restaurant Liquor Dealers as sociation of Manhattan said its president. Joseph Maguire. : ' COMMANDER ELECTED -PORTLAND, Aug. 10 (ff) The new commander of the 8 and 40, fun group of. the Amer ican - Legion auxiliary, is Mrs. Frank Allen, Seaside, who was elected here, yesterday. . The session was a prelude to the Legion state convention which opened today..- WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 () American trucks are carrying "a good 50 per cent" of the highway-borne military, supplies to the Russian front, . the chief of the American military mission in Moscow reported today. " Creditingthe vehicles with a tremendous part in the surging advance of the red army, Maj. Gen. John R. Deane told a news conference those gains can be explained in full only as a west ward advance ot the whole Rus sian people. To keep the armies rolling, supply lines must be rebuilt, he said, and a tremendous amount of army -supply has been kept moving on the railroads. What cannot be moved by rail, nowever, moves on tne highways, and "everything that rolls from peasant carts to motor trucks" is used. Organisation Great The ability of the soviet army to keep such a "polyglot mass" of transportation moving in or derly fashion, Deane commented, is a magnificent tribute to the discipline and organizational ability of the Russian people. The general, temporarily back in this country after ten months in Russia,- said there were four points he wanted to emphasize about the war on . trm front: '1. The Russians am in this war 100 per. cent you will see in Russia total war if you are ever going to see it; "2. They have reached a very high degree of military competency; 6. Thev are verv nnnraciaHira of American assistance and r using it up to the hilt; " . xney like Americans, they want to be friends, and they co operate with us in every way." Answers Question Deane said his first point, total war, answered the question most frequently asked him since he returned: How the Russians are able to keep their tremendous advances rolling and still main tain their supply. , - "The answer," he said, ''is that the whole population is in this war. As the armies go along, the whole people just surge forward. Defend Only Centers "The Germans have defended the centers of population, but they have not had the forces to defend the areas between them. Those areas have been controlled by Russian partisans, and they have done a swell job. "The Germans, for instance, destroyed all bridges but the civilian population comes right along and fixes them." American supplies are wel comed enthusiastically through. out Russia, Deane said, rating the inree most important items in order as trucks, aircraft and lood. Cooperation is complete and prompt in everything that will coniriDute to victory, Deane con. untied, nut the Russians "are not inclined xo pass out informat nn just for information's sake if we ask for something that they think will not enntrihnto Hiroxt- iy xo winning the war, they're likely to tell us just that they uavcu i, got xime to answer.
