A REALISTIC VIEW

The recent division of California cities
into three zones according to the proper
tionate danger each would be subjected
ito in case of enemy attack is an example
of>the realistic view our military leaders
are taking of the struggle
1t is also a reflection of the change in
our strength since that eventful day in
December, 1941, when we were plunged
into a war which we were not ready for
With the japanese invasion thrusts at
Midway and the Aleutians successfully
eliminated, the development of adequate
military installations along our west
coast and our recent victories in the
South Pacific there seems little danger
now of an enemy stroke here in force.
Immediately after the December 7th
attack on Pearl Harbor by the treacher-
Gus japanese the entire area along our
Pacific Coast, where many of our major
war factories are located, became en-
gagged in total defense measures. Ar
raid warden setups came into being; flrSt
aid training became mandatory for en-
ployes of many companies; evacuation
plans for certain areas were worked OUT
Now the State War council has recon-
mended that many of these defense actlV-
tiles be done away with IN the areas
which would not be liable to direct as
E3u1 DN 1ne enemy. III dillIoot N'Oi'
case these areas are away from the
eoastline, the inland cities of California:
However. in spite of the relaxation OF
defense activity inland, greater caution
than before was urged for the extremely
important manufacturing centers along
the sea.
And residents of all three zones were
urged to use increased alertness in the
auxiliary police. auxiliary fire and emer-
gency medical services" For danger
of sabotage, racial unrest and natural
disaster possibilities demand increasing
vigilance in those protective activities.
Our. armed forces are no longer on the
defensive. hence the shift in civilian ac-
tivity. The accent is now on protection
from home front dangers. which in them
selves are very detrimental to the war
effort.
Soldiers. sailors and marines of the
Allies are on the offensive now and one
by one the lights are beginning to come
on again.
The thing we must now concentrate
upon is providing shield SO those flick
ering lights may grow brighter.

TO EVERYONE:
OF THE WAR TODAY
jacksonville Register-Paiaronian)

Jacksonville Register-Paj jaronlan)
By now you know that one of the great
est campaigns in our nations history
the Third War loan-will begin next
Thursday, Sept. 9. The Pajaro valley is
preparing for a drive to sell $1,400,000
in War bonds-our quota. This will be
quite. task but it can be done if every
body will get in and pitch and if the Off
GERS, committees and groups in charge of
the drive in this valley get the proper
cooperation.
Remember that commercial banks
which bought heavily in the Second War
loan several months ago-will be unable
to buy War bonds this time, so its up to
individuals to do the job. You read the
presidents proclamation in this paper the
other day and you'll hear him officially
launch the campaign via the radio We'd
nesday night Here are some facts on
the campaign as presented by the U. 5.
treasury:
Every American who can possibly af
ford it is urged to buy at least one 500
Bond over and above what he has already
bought or is buying through payroll saw
ings or other plans. This Is special
drive. intended to accomplish a special
purpose-the raising of a large addition
al sum of money. A great number of
Americans already own one or more war
bonds each-according to recent surveys,
more than two out of three urban dwell
erS and one out of two farmers. Thus
the major portion of the money to be
raised in this Third War loan drive must
come from additional purchases by those
already holding bonds
However, there remain important un-
tapped markets-new workers, especial
ly women, the so per cent of the farm
market that remains to be sold, families
with two, three or more persons working
because of the war, the One-third OF the
urban market that remains to be sold. In
other words, everyone who can afford
to purchase bonds to the fullest extent
of his ability To raise Is billion dollars
it would be necessary to sell 200 million
S1O0 Bonds Cat the subscription price of
S75). And since our population, includ-
ing children, is less than 1876 million, 1T
will be necessary to sell some people
more than 500 worth. The size of the
task can now be seen. 1t is the greatest
financing job ever attempted.
We haven't failed in a single war drive
in the Pajaro valley. We must keep up
our batting average and raise it a couple
of notches if we can.

AMERICANS ALSO DIE

For the first time in the history of the
United States pictures of dead Ameri-
cans on the battlefield have been pub
lished
Perhaps this is shrewd bit of propa-
ganda work designed to whip us into the
necessary state of mind to ruthlessly de
stroy our enemy. But we'd rather think
of it as recognition of average American
intelligence.
Nevertheless, it will have an effect on
most people which should stir them from
any feeling of complacency that they
may have felt about this war.
Our men are dying just as the enemy
dies. But we can thank God that our
losses are not nearly so heavy as our
foes.
The sight of an American boy lying
dead on a foreign land is sight which
none of us enjoys. We should not take
their deaths as a matter of course but
should make every effort to avenge them,
be it by the bombing of Tokyo or the
purchase of a s25 war bond

COFFEE RATIONING

(San Francisco Chronicle)
The decrease in coffee sales reported
by grocers the first day it was released
from rationing is not surprising. The
buyers rush before rationing was not
for immediate use but was what, if the
circumstances had not made it factor
in national emergency, would be policy
of reasonable prudence, as people pro-
vide for rainy day.
The submarine screen in the Caribbean
shut off our normal supply line. So
there was a rush to transfer reserves
from warehouses to private pantries.
Now the screen is broken through, we
can have all the coffee we want. With
no fear of shortage there is no rush to

Outer Nazi Defenses
OF 0reI Base Pierced
BY Reds From South
By the Associated Press.


MOSCOW, July 29.-The Rus
sian column advancing on Orel
from the south drove over the
bodies of $500 Germans yester-
day to force that claw of the
giant pincers tighter about the
vital city and keep pace with the
northern and eastern onslaughts,
the Russians said today.
Front-line dispatches indicated
the masses of Red Army troops and
tanks, in general advances of from
"a to miles, now had battered
down the Germans outer hedgehog
defense systems and were storming
the enemy bastions strongest de-
lenses.
Stanovoy Kolodets, railway sta
ton III miles southeast of Orel, fell
to the Russians yesterday, COM
munique said.
Other Columns Advance.
Russian advices said the column
advancing on Orel from the north
was fighting its way through swamps
and across streams raised to flood
stage by recent rains.
The going was said to be heavy
and the Russians acknowledged that
the offensive in this area had in
eVltsbly been slowed down, but de-
clared that even so the advance was
continuing
The Russian half-circle thrown
about the bitterly resisting German
Army last was reported nearest the
city on the north, where it encom-
passed Optukha. The column at
tacking frontally from the east had
overrun Zolatarevo at last reports,
Is miles away.
The Germans also threw fresh,
newly arrived reserves into the bat
ties north and east of Orel yester-
day, the Russians said, but reported
that although the Nazis counterat-
tackled stubbornly and fought vi
ciously the Red Army retained the
initiative at all points.
80 Tanks Blasted.
Altogether, the Russians said they
overran 80 occupied places, left
more than $500 dead upon the field
and knocked out 80 German tanks
yesterday in the Orel sector alone.
(The Berlin radio yesterday
acknowledged the German with
draWal from Bolkhov. 81 miles
above Orel, which the Russians
announced last week they had
captured. 1t was evacuated. the
broadcast said. as part of their

to greatly superior forces but
