While it is doubted by our military. heads in the European theatre that any great. secment of the German people will enter as ordered, into guerrilla warfare against the allies, some fanatics are expected to carry on the fight from an organized underground already functioning, until they are either killed or captured: The danger of assuming here that complete German resistance has awaited only the signal to surrender, and would end on the spot when it came, has worried our military considerably. Nothing they felt, short of allied withdrawal from German soil, would have been quite so valuable to the nazis at the height of the Rhine crossing, as an allied frenzy of premature peace celebration and a sudden slackening, of war production just when our attenuated supply lines neéded strengthening most. While sany member of the allied occupation forces still face sniper’s bullets, the war will not be over in Germany. When that danger is past, when the underground lairs are smoked’6ut and our boys head for home again; the Etropean end of the war will be finished in reality, and victory truly will be ours.—Contributed. HEARTBREAK IN THE NEWS The choking realization that General Ira C. Eaker’s entire air command of 20,570 men in the Mediterranean theatre has been completely wiped out in a year’s operation, came as curiously secondary news from Rome, in a dispatch briefer than the nazi mouthing for the day, or latest news of the machinists’ strike at San Francisco. Most of the people who heard the dispatch over the air failed to recognize its tremendous and tragic import, for it came in the same breath an@ in the same lusty, confident tones as general news of the war is wont to come. Playing up the good news and playing down the bad was a necessary censorship requirement in earlier days of the war. Today we see little sense in discounting losses so that few but those who have lost loved ones in the bitter engagements feel the poignant strain of the sacrifice. The sacrifice should be felt by every American on home soil, and felt keenly enough so thae the war's progress toward victory is the greatest concern of everyone. . In letters from the battle fronts, _infantrymen, flyers, tankmen and engineers, veterans of bloody combat duty who “*have seen injured Yanks, dead Yanks and cemeteries covered with white markers,’ wonder at the apathy of many here. They wonder how news of “13,000 striking. infantrymen—matching the number of Dodge plant strikers—in Germany or Luzon, would affect the folks at home. Their honest bitterness over the machinists boilermakers jurisdictional battle, tying up badly needed army ships at San Francisco, bodes no good for post war labor relations. The 100 per cent loss of Eaker’s 15th Air Force in its long, desperate fight, and all other similar heart breaking reports, from the war fronts, constitute news that should not be spared the general public. It is vital news, we believe, with which the government's war information bureaus might well jar the nation out of any lethargic unconcern toward conditions, that needlessly slow the day of final peace.—Contributed. THE MAIL BOX THIEF The man who steals servicemen’s allotment or allowance checks is no Robin Hood. He steals from those who fight for his very life at the risk of their own. You wouldn't suppose there would be many people of. such low character. But the rising loss of army and navy checks to families of soldiers and sailors has impelled tne U. S. Secret Service to launch a special campaign to warn servicemen’s families of the organized thievery. The mail box robbers spot houses displaying. serviie flags in their windows, watch for the mail deliveries and collect any letters arriving from the treasury department almost as soon as the postman leaves them. Households receiving checks are urged to make it a point to ge to the mail box first, Incidentally, a strong lock will discoorage thievery, the secret service points out. : A measure of responsibility rests with all firms where treasury checks are cahsed, and stores are requested to know all endorsers. If the aggregate amount of servicemen’s pay stolen regularly from private boxes is of sufficient magnitude to move the secret service to action, a real pinch must be ‘felt by the individual families suffering the losses. < Thefts of this nature are reprehensbile, owener: baiend any amounts involved. The crime is heinous against men offering their lives on our country’s battle fields, and every citizen should do what he can to help apprehend the criminals. — Contributed. t a ee ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE Among the many prognosticators of future events these days are the slightly balmy crystal gazers, the earnest wishful thinkers—and finally the fundamentalists who —reach their predictions by accentuating the positive—by balancing facts alone. « eee see 30 cents Pe seems real only to those nazis . ! who have no guns. And not all are expected to have handed . In the latter group many old timers at the state capital place one Glen Williaman of the California Real Estate Asare some of his current predictions concerning what will hap-. pen between now and legislative adjournment date—which . . he declares will be “before May 30.” ommercial rent control will fail of passa will be car fave ndu 1m ‘ried to the 1946 ballot either as an initiative or reand the 683-million dollar budget will be adopted with few changes. No »w O} nly one perple: ai of any magnitude remains. If i'My. Williaman will just help us weed out the rumor—eliminstethe: naualive, so to speak——and glean only the facts. we'll fisure out the date of V-E day, set up the type in 48-point old and be ready to flash an ‘extra even as the official news omes over the wire.—Contributed. NUISANCE LFGISLATION Among the quarter ofa million lodge members distributed in every community in the state, many are eyeing with. concern a series of bills-at Sacramento which would * “subject fraternal benefit societies to nuisance*regulations and controls and raise membership dues appreciably’’"—according to L. E. Probst of the California State Fraternal Congress, in an analysis of the bills. Unless valid reason exists for such legislation—and none co far has been declared by the Insurance Commission under which such societies operate—the lodges are not proper subjects, we believe for legislative experiments of any nature. Not organized for profit many farternal benefit societies have carried on virtually the only charitable work done in many communities. And their splendid work has not lagged in the war period. Such ‘contributions as lodges have made to the public welfare cannot be measued alone in tax-savings to the public. Many among us walk today because a lodge saw that they received sanitarium care for tuberculosis. which otherwise would have ruined their lives. Many parentless children find their place in the world through the auspices of lodge sponsorored orphanages, and many elderly folk have found friendly sanctuary in the homes provided by benevolent groups. Hundreds of Boy and Girl Scouts troops are financed by lodges, while many Red Cross chapters receive their entire. support by them. Civic work of all types, community betterment and educational foundations grow under such sponsorship and the taxsaving is the least of the humanitarian program. Yet, declares Probst in a public message to fraternal benefit‘ groups throughout the state, ‘‘the pending bills, AB 426, 489, 7945-6, constitute an attempt, simply, to legislate us out of action.”’ If that is the case we repeat the recommendation of the California Fraternal Congress that lodge members study the provisions of those bills and let'their own legislators know the position in the matter.—Contributed.
