"More and more Germans were drhwn into the semi-aquatic bat tit which steadily was turning the German flank in the north. Barrages from hundreds upon hundreds of Field Marshal Montgomery's big guns and huge fltets of allied planes paralyzed any enemy attempt to regain gtfound and exacted terrible casualties.

On both sides of the world, our enemies are fighting a de laying war, without hope of ulti mate victory. Such is war by INDOCTRI NATED peoples. IN Washington, War Secretary Stimson REASSESSES his views of the damage our big bombers are doing to Jap war industry. A week ago, he said: "Japan's war production has not yet been fundamentally weakened." To day, obviously impressed by seemingly dependable reports that the enemy is moving big airplane and other vital war plants to Manchuria, he says: "When the Japs tell of moving their heavy industry to the main land, they ADMIT PRESENT DAMAGE and the certainty of MUCH GREATER DAM AGS IN THE FUTURE." That appears to be sound logic. .

He gets a big ovation indicating that there are Greeks who approve what the British have done. He says: "We are proud of the part the British army has played in protecting the im mortal city of Athens from violence and anarchy." He adds: "There has been much misunder standing and ignorance of our common cause and much mis representation of the issues that have been fought out here." a . e T F there had been more enlight enment of the public . in Britain and the United States from responsible, accurately informed- sources, . there would have been LESS misunderstand ing and ignorance. Secret diplomacy originated centuries ago when the common, average public was intellectual ly, incapable of- understanding such things. That time is past in Britain and the .United States. In these days of better edu cated peoples and ample com munications facilities, opener, franker diplomacy would pay big dividends in the way of in formed public opinion. Former Klamath Man Dies In Portland A. W. Smith, father of Chet Smith, former resident of Klam ath Falls and now making his home in Portland, died in that city February 13, friends were advised last night.

About half the troops in the United States are taking care of supplies aid reserves. Furlough Policy The army's liberal furlough policy before a man goes over seas and after he returns might give an untrue impression of sol diers without apparent duties. A republican senator joined two democratic colleagues in proposing to substitute for the disputed work-or-jail bill legisla tion strengthening the war man power commission's efforts to deal with labor shortages. Terms of the proposed substi. tute were made public late yes. terday by Senators Kilgore (D W. Va.) and Wagner (D-N. Y.). Kilgore's office announced later that Senator Ferguson (R-Mich.) had asked to be listed as a co author. The two democrats are members of the military affairs committee wmcn nas nad control of the house-approved limited national service bill for more than two weeks. 8 Marine Fliers Die in Crashes SAN DIEGO, Calif..

Relaxation of Italian Armistice Terms; Query Into Relief (Continued from Page One) Elmer Davis said he assumed the reference was to the failure to ship as much civilian sup plies into France as planned be fore the invasion. "However 1 this government made no promise that I know of," Davis said. "The estimate of shipping planned following D-day was our guess rather than any pledge of performance."

Fresh forma tions of allied bombers were re-; ported flying in over Holland i and also from the south over , Austria. The attacks brought to about 11,000 thus far the number of planes which have linked the eastern and western battlcfronts under a blanket of explosives and incendiaries in the last 48 hours. Frontline reports said tactical aircraft, also, were having an other great field day against nazi road movements. (Continued From Page One) tion "not always the answer." He said: "The government is reluctant to seize . : . The government can not run numerous plants. In some cases the seizure method is easy: It can be quick: it can bypass painstaking work in trying to figure out sonic other moans of securing com pliance, but so far it has not and it must not become an opiate for all of our non-com-plinnce troubles." He suggested a congressional act providing for penalties on forcable to the judiciary for non-compliance with WLB orders.
