One American corps officer was quoted as saying, "'The attack is going SO well that we are going to accomplish in one day what we had hoped to do in two." The action took place in the same where two months ago the Germans had smashed two U. S. infantry divisions in some of the heaviest fighting on the western front. Today the doughboys encountered only reluctant defensive troops, One Third Army division drove 8 quarter of a mile east to a point three quarters of a mile from Welchenhausen which is miles south of St. Vith.

The drive put the doughboys three quarters of a mile inside Germany at this point. Other units of the same division pushed about a half mile to the east and reached the Reich frontier just south of Diepert, miles below St. Vith. Farther north they edged onequarter of a mile east to Steffhausen is a mile west of the German border. Front dispatches said patrols of the 17th airborne division and elements of the sixth armored division reached the Our river in seven places over a six-mile front from points five miles northeast of Clervaux to points miles southeast of the town.

Associated Press Correspondent Edward D. Ball reported from the front that the U. S. Ninth division had captured Rohren which is just south of the Roer at the edge of the Monschau forest, two miles south of the town of Monschau. Other divisions occupied a string of villages in the last Germanheld strip of Belgian soil and smashed on to within sight of the Reich frontier.

So heavy was the snow that bulldozer tanks in some cases had to break paths for the infantry. Prisoners were being taken in steady but undisclosed numbers. The Berlin radio, asserting that German western front lines were "wavering" in several sectors as a result of the new American attacks, said all available the reserves were bethrown into fight to try to stabilize the front but that the Americans had advanced "several LABORERS WANTED Urgently Needed Now TO HELP BUILD NAVAL ORDNANCE PLANT AT CAMDEN, ARKANSAS BY WINSTON, HAGLIN, MISSOURI VALLEY AND SOLLITT (Prime Contractors) GOOD PAY FREE TRANSPORTATION TO THE JOB Time and half for overtime.

He gave a long recital on trade union leaders who have been executed the Nazis. In his opinion there are some Nazi sympathizers in Aachen but the great majority of the population declined to German orders for the evacuation because they were through with Hitler. "We had literally to gag our children or grandchildren during the hours when the gestapo searched citizens who were unwilling to leave, so they would not betray us speaking he said.

Aachen's acting chief burgomaster, whose every act of course is 'supervised by American military authorities, felt confident that all 14,000 Aacheners who have found their way back to the city were through with Naziism and want some form of democratic regime. He, as well as the president of the handicrafts guild, felt, however, that the military authorities must, guide the country slowly firmly into democracy since Germans have been deprived of freedom for so long they don't know what to do with it. At one end of town a large hospital some 600 men, women and children live in a A sort of refugee camp. I entered numerous rooms and spoke to many families. They were practically all Catholics and said they were cheered that the priest had started religious instruction for the children in this compound.

One rather portly and rotund hausfrau looked from her sewing machine where she was making a dress for an eight-year-old girl and said: "Rather a Belgian concentration camp than another nightmare of gestapo rule--that's how we felt when Aachen for a while was threatened by the Rundstedt offensive. We were ready to take our few belongings once again and move on." Other women who were standing around minding their children vigorously endorsed this woman.

Kurt Plath and Franz Frankenberger, the 19-year-old prisoners of war who escaped from Camp Barkeley Monday morning, were picked up last night three miles west of Merkel by Texas Highway patrol officers A. B. Nail and J. L. Cearley after they had been identified by Roy Cheek, 1050 Locust.

Cheek, who was driving A truck, stated that he thought the two boys were soldiers and stopped to give them 8 lift. When he realized that they could not speak English, he immediately identified them as the escaped prisons and hailed the first car which came along, which luckily was Nail and Cearley of the Highway patrol, accompanied by Nail's uncle, A. A. Barnes, Camp Barkeley barber, who were engaged in the hunt for the men. By the time the officers got there, the prisoners had again vanished, and the group decided to go to Merkel to get additional help in scour- INVASION-.

(Continued from Page One) Japanese by surprise "both strategically and tactically," MacArthur announced as his Sixth Army spearhead drove south from the Lingayen gulf beachheads past San Fernando, within 30 miles of Manila. At the new invasion scene, again in flat country suitable for mechanized warfare, the Yanks were due west of San Fernando, which units of the Sixth Army captured Sunday morning. From San Fernando the Sixth Army was driving between swamplands toward the commonwealth capital. The 24th infantry division, commanded by Maj. Gen.

Frederick A. Irving, took part in the campaign which conquered Leyte, first major Philippine island to be liberated. This was the first mention of the Eighth Army in action in the war. It is commanded by General Eichelberger, who commended the Buna campaign on New Guinea's east coast. Troops drove inland through San Marcelino, which has an airfield, to Castellejos, 11 miles beyond the beachhead and within 10 miles of Olongapo, a port on Subic bay.

"This operation," MacArthur triumphantly announced, "is calculated to give us the great Subic bay base to threaten the western flank of any enemy forces in the central (Luzon) plain and to seal off Meanwhile the Tokyo radio said 36 American Superfortresses attacked 1 northern Luzon while single B-29s raided Osaka and Kyoto, on Japan's main Honshu island, and reconnoitered Seoul, Korea. Such Superfort operations have not been reported by official American sources. The Japanese radio was busy Tuesday moaning about plane production and war shirkers. The chief of the Nippon aircraft bureau told the Diet "the existing rate of aircraft production is far from satisfactory." A Tokyo domestic broadcast castigated shirkers, doubters and market operators and said slackness and insincerity "makes one think that it is because we are not fully conscious of the one question- xx What if we should be defeated?" The Japanese offensive in southeast China, designed to close the last held-Chinese section of the vital Canton-Hankow railway, rolled into new territory. The Chinese high command said the invaders stormed into Kukong, provisional capital of Kwantung province, and took Chenshien, 80 miles south of Hengyang.

Only 20 miles of the railway remain in Chinese hands. Control of that gap would give the Japanese a solid line of communications reaching from Manchuria to the CantonHongkong area. Chinese official reports said Japanese made new gains in the Swatow coastal sector. Tokyo claimed Nippon forces now control the entire Kwangtung China sea coast nearest the Philippines and are fortifying the region against any invasion attempt by the Americans. American fliers in China established a new record as they destroyed 152 locomotives on Japaneseerated Chinese railroads during the week ended Jan.

As he locked the door, Cheek heard movements and reported to the officers that he thought the prisoners were still there. The patrolmen searched the truck and found the Germans on top lying bale of hay. They were immediately brought to Abilene to the city police station. Although the Germans speak little English, they spoke enough to convey to the Highway patrolmen that they were hungry, that they had been going in circles since the Monday mornleaving, camp. stept in the brush last night.

"Texas is a big state," they told Nall and Cearley. Officials of the Federal Bureau of Investigation questioned them last night at the police station, where the two prisoners looked tired, young and unkempt and A long way from being Hitler's "supermen." The three German prisoners who escaped from Camp Hood while on work detail Monday were captured by two Brownwood police petrolmen. The captives were walking along a street in a Mexican settlement. They carried highway maps and a number of letters written in German. They were identified AS Johan Hummel, Willie Lange, and Heinz Bachman.

Earlier in the day the Department of Public safety in Austin had quoted the Camp Hood provost marshal as saying the prisoners were "considered dangerous." Only slight difficulty was expertenced in their capture.

He defied Allied efforts to break down German resistance psychologically, declaring "let me tell the (Allied) statesmen once and for all that any attempts to make an impression on Nazi Germany by using phrases of the kind used by (President Woodrow) Wilson presumes a simplicity of mind which is unknown in the Germany of today." The fuehrer contended that resistance the Reich is now offering was made possible "only by the internal transformation of the German people" by national socialism and added, "if the spirit of Versailles still prevailed in Germany today, Euwould have been swept rope, by the Asiatic springtide long ago." Hitler described himself as "a ruthless national socialist and warrior of my nation" as he defiantly cried that Germany would never go down "before the Bolshevists." Again as in previous dramatic utterances he declared that his own life mattered little.

"I do not want to leave any doubt about another matter on this day; my present life is being determined solely by the duties which lie upon me xxx to work for my people and fight for them," he asserted. Hitler claimed "The Almighty" had saved him from assassination last July and declared he would "therefore continue on my path of uncompromising representation of the interests of my people xxx imbued with the sacred conviction that A verdict of not guilty was rendered by a six-man jury yesterday in city court in a case charging disturbance of the peace and use of abusive language.
