Stop Issuance OF
Ration Books |, III

No more copies of war ration books
or II are to be issued by the board
for any purpose whatsoever, Mr..
Dorr, chairman of the Pine County
War Price and Ration board, an
nounced this week. All stamps in
the two books have now expired eX-
cept stamp 18 in book I, used in buy
ing shoes, and blue stamps x, Y, and
z in book II, which are valid for
buying rationed processed foods.
These stamps should be safe-guarded
against loss because local boards are
no longer authorized to replace them
if lost, stolen or destroyed. The shoe
stamp will be valid until further
notice.
If it ever becomes necessary to set
an expiration date 80 days notice
will be given to holders for their
guidance. The blue stamps x, Y and
z may be used to buy processed foods
through November 20. Brown stamps
G and H in war ration book III are
being used this week for the pur-
chase of items rationed under the
meat-fats order. Green stamps A,
B and c in war book w are being
used in buying processed foods.
In response to inquiries as to whe-
ther holders should continue to keep
war books l and II in their posses
sion, Mr.. Dorr said that these covers
will not be used again for rationing
purposes and, when the stamps con-
tanned in them expire, they will cease
to have any rationing value for the
owner.

Storm Stops Search
For Bremen Farmer

The search that was to have been
conducted last Sunday for E. c. ELL
son, Bremen township farmer, who
has been missing the past three
weeks, was called off because of the
storm which was developing that
day. With the heavy snowfall Sun
day evening and during Monday the
area where he was last seen is now
thoroughly blanketed with snow so
it appears very unlikely that any
further search can be made before
spring.
Family members and friends and
neighbors have been conducting an
almost daily search since the 71-year
old retired farmer disappeared on
October 20.

and another was the pledge that
Austria will be liberated from
Nazi rule, and that democratic

NaZl rule, and that democratic
government will be organized i'm
Italy.
To the disappointment of many,
not one word was said about the
future of the small, Nazi-occupied
countries, with the sole exception of
Austria. But perhaps the freeing
of these nations is taken for granted.
Kiev Captured.
What, perhaps, hastened the end of
the war more than any other single
factor was the latest Russian victory
over the Nazis:
The Soviet forces stOrmed and
took from the enemy the third
largest city in their country, the
most important in the Ukraine,
namely, Kiev.
1t was, therefore, no wonder that
Stain, speaking in honor of the
tWenty-siXth anniversary of the
founding of the Soviet republics,
praised the amazing Russian armies
and predicted disaster and destruc-
ton for the Hitler legions.
This latest victory has carried the
Russians to point only about 120
miles from the Polish frontier-con-
sequently, 120 miles closer to Ger
many itself.
For four months the Russian often
sive has been in progress, and as the
weeks went by, it became more and
more irresistible. The NaziS were
never given single chance to record
even a small victory-they were too
busy retreating. And they still are.
There is some resistance in the north
ern sector of the Russian front, but
it is possible that now when so much
of the south has been retaken, all
efforts will be concentrated on the
task of chasing the enemy out of the
north, too.

Traffic Mishaps
Record Gets New
Jolt In October
Plans Under Way To Com
bat Potential Dangers In
Postwar World.

The good record Minnesota has
been making in the reduction of
traffic accidents had another setback
in October with 80 fatalities recorded,
this exceeding the previous worst
month, September, when % deaths
were listed.
Total traffic deaths for the first
ten months in 1943 so far reported
were 200, compared to $40 in the
same months in 1912, reduction of
46 per cent. From January to August
there was SIS per cent reduction in
traffic fatalities, but September and
October deaths were only 13 per cent
less than in the same months in
1912.
Traffic Headache Ahead.
Anticipating greater potential
danger and the biggest traffic head
ache the nation ever had, in the post
war era, the National Safety Council
is already appointing a special COM
mittee to meet these problems. "There
are four major reasons for expecting
these problems" Sidney j. Williams,
general manager of the Council, said.
First, several million fighting men,
accustomed to danger, will be back
behind the wheel. The change-over
from battlefront speed to peacetime
caution will be revolutionary.
"Raring To Co."
Second, civilian motorists who
have been nursing their gasoline by
the thimblefull, suddenly will find
themselves with full tanks They will
be raring to go some place - any
place - and fast.
Third, the cars, tires and high
ways which these travel-hungry
drivers use will be worn to the point
of danger.
Fourth, many drivers will have
grown rusty from lack of driving.
Their reaction to traff--c emergencies
will be numbed.
"Put all these factors together and
you have situation that could easily
produce the largest traffic accident
toll the country has ever seen."

New Coal Set In
PulpwoodD
Over y States
Extra Cord For Every Boy
In Service Slogan Of New
Campaign.

A cord of pulpwood for every
local boy in the service is the slogan
and the goal of a new national drive
for pulpWood which will begin today,
Armistice day, and runs until De-
cember H. The new campaign was
announced this week by Walter M.
Dear, chairman of the Newspaper
Pulpwood committee as a climax to
the Victory Pulpwood drive.
Askov has los boys in the army,
navy, marines or coast guard which
would mean that this community's
goal of extra cords of pulpwood to
be cut between November II and De-
cember II is 105 cords. Many from
this area have already signified their
intention of devoting three extra days
this fall to pulpWood cutting and
several who have not previously cut
pulpwood for market will do so dur
ing the coming months.
To Cover 27 States.
The new drive will cover pulp
wood producing areas in 27 states Of
the northeast, south, Appalachian and
lake states. Mr.. Dear stated that
''The Victory Pulpwood campaign
has aroused the country to the reali-
zation that pulpwood is necessary
and vital raw material for war. With
out its varied manufactured products
our fighting men overseas will be
severely handicapped in their drive
against the Axis powers still in the
war.
"The new drive aimed at cutting
cord for every local boy in the
service, if successful, will put the
Victory Pulpwood campaign over the
top and definitely avert the 2,500,000
cord shortage which threatens mill
tary and essential civilian require
mentS.
Makes Soldiers Job Easier.
"No one in this country wants to
let our boys in the service down,
least of all his home community
where he will return after the war.
Cutting cord of pulpwood may seem
a little thing to do to show we're be-
hind him, but it may bring him home
sooner or even save his life or that
of a comrade. 1t certainly will make
his job easier by supplying him with
equipment, food, and supplies on time
and in good condition"

We'll Known Juneau Grol. CT Loses Left Foot
 in Mishdp

Tom George, well-known Juneau grocer and part owner of George Brothers, was seriously injured last night at Il .O5 o'clock in an auto accident on the Douglas Highway near Lawson Greek.
 Although details of the accident are not clear, it is believed that the grocery truck George was driv- ing struck a soft shoulder on the road and went out of control, pin ming the drivers left leg in the door in the crash that followed. George had probably attempted to get out of the car when it crashed into the ditch.
 Soon after the accident, group of autoists in a Ford V-8 arrived on the scene This car contained Rob- ert Matrin, Dave Brown, Walter Ludtke, Bill Strand and Rudy Krause. They took George into their car and rushed him to St. Ann's Hospital
 Georges leg was so badly injured that Drs. c. O. Carter and w. M. Whitehead found it necessary to amputates the limb about six inches below the knee.
 George also suffered chest in- juries and other bruises. He is re- ported to be resting and in an improved condition late this alter noon.
 Soon after the accident Territorial Highway Patrolman Emmett Botelho was notified and he went to the scene of the accident to get 1uli report. The red delivery truck was later lowed to the Bowling and Davlin Motor Company for re- pairing.

What Bombing Can Do

Herr Goebbels is worried about the
Germanic power of endurance Instruct
ing Nazi newspaper stooges in the lies
they are to write, he conceded that the
Huns can't take it. That is no news to
the rest of us, who have seen other Sadis-
tic DULLES cave in as soon as the going
got tough. 1t is, of course, the increas-
ing weight of Allied air power that dis
courages Nazi Joe. A controlled press
can keep many secrets, but can hardly
persuade the residents of Essen, for in
stance, that Goering controls the air.
Almost nonstop bomL>ng is cracking the
German shell. Nevertheless, we should
not read too much into this 1t does not
mean, unfortunately, that the Reich is
about to collapse and capitulate No
realistic observer expects victory to come
until infantry and tanks are, at the least,
on their way overland to Berlin.
Bombing can win the war. How it can
do this is most easily understood by going
back to the last days OF Cape Bon. There
some 100000 crack German troops as
good as any fighting men in the world,
we're concentrated in a tiny area. They
had only short line to defend, across the
neck of the cape, and the mountainous
interior was ideal for defense. Yet they
collapsed in matter of hours. Why?
Because no modern army, however, cap
able, courageous and ably led, can fight
without tanks, planes, guns, munitions.
And we had cut off these quarter of
million men from the tools of their trade
Bombing can win the war by doing the
same thing on greater scale and by a
different process.
Some experts say that if we can devas-
tate less than score of key German cities
as we have destroyed Essen, the war will
be won. Those cities are the sources of
the most vital armaments and munitions.
At the same time they are being devital-
lied, transportation and communication
lines throughout Hitler's fortress of Eu-
rope" will be broken up. Then, when
Observation-Disclosures forces establish
their bridgeheads and start for Berlin,
the Axis defenders will find themselves
as impotent to resist as were the defend
ers of Cape Bon.
