Eighth Country Eastern Czechoslovakia has been deeply invaded by the Rus sians, who today were ngnung within sight of the industrial city of Bruenn. It was the seventh, or perhaps the eighth country invaded by Gen. Eisenhower's western armies. The others were France. Belgium, Holland. Lux embourg, Germany and Monaco. Some of Eisenhower's forces in the maritime Alps may have crossed the Italian frontier as well. Final battles continued inside . the cities of Halle, Duesseldorf, Dessau and the suburbs of Brem en. The third army entered Zwickau, (76.000). The British moved to within 22 miles of Hamburg. The seventh army, outflanking beleaguered Nuern berg, closed to within 85 miles of Munich and 140 of Hitler's home at Berchtesgaden. Chem nitz was under frontal assault. Man Jailed on Driving Counf Barney Calvin McCoy, arrest ed by state police on a charge of driving while under the influ ence of intoxicating liquor, was committed to the Klamath coun ty jail for a period of 60 days in lieu of S100 fine levied Tuesday by Justice of the Peace J.

KF Youth Held In Tacoma On Forgery Charge Robert C. Faler. 18-year-old Klamath youth was in the Tacoma, Wash., city jail today with bond set at S1000. following a hearing before United States Commissioner Stuart Elliott on charges of forging a U. S. money order for $15, in Shelton, Wash. The money order, officers claimed, was taken from a post box. .. . Faler has no juvenile record here, juvenile authorities stated. In November, 1943 when 17 years of age, Faler ran away from his home in Klamath Falls in company with two other boys; the trio was picked up in Dunsmuir and returned home. County Juvenile Officer Harold Hendrickson said. Will Rogers, Jr., Hurt in Action WASHINGTON, April 18 UP) Lt Will Rogers Jr., former Cali fornia member of congress and son of the cowboy humorist, has been wounded in action. Rogers telegraphed his wife here that he had been hospital ized but that his wound was not serious. The message gave no details as to time or place. Rogers was with the first army in Germany after partici pating in the Normandy inva sion. He won the Bronze Star in the Battle of the Bulge. The Japs saturate ship tim bers with whale blubber to pro tect them from insects. Then our navy spoils the plan by sinking the ships before the in sects can do any harm, anyway.

TRADE ACT BILL'S (Continued from Page One) this issue, the former secretary of state declared, is "one of the decisive tests of whether the United States is prepared to as sume its share of the responsi bility for creating the basic con ditions upon which enduring peace begins." Hearings Open In response to questioning from the nouse ways and means committee, Clayton declared that the failure would disillusion the world regarding this nation's pledges for economic prosperity through free trade. The com mittee began hearings today on the administration's request for renewal and broadening of the reciprocal trade act. Many nations will be unable to repay the United States for goods immediately after the war, Clayton said, and, unless steps are taken now to permit eventual repayment through exports to this country, there will be a two-fold consequence: Lose Money 1. We'll lose the money ex tended as credits to other nations "as happened after the first World war." 2. We'll set up "irritations and bitterness" among other na tions which will say "You welched on us and made it im possible for us to repay our debts." (Pvle's body was inaccessible for some tunc.

More than any other man he became - the spokesman of the ordinary American in arms doing so many extraordinary things. It was his genius that the mass and power of our mil itary and naval forces never obscured the men who made them.
