A similar air. rescue system will
be installed at all overseas airway
traffic control stations now being

methods and experience which
have been "of such great value to
the air forces" Its job is helping
lost filters locate themselves. and
finding planes that have gone
down.

Now, four years later, they were
fleeing along the same road faster
than they came, offering nothing
but sporadic resistance to Hodges

Siegfried line-and front dispatch
said advance units were operating
in the area of Metz and the old
Lorraine capital Of Nancy.
Metz is "a miles from the Saar
border, where the French early in
the war jumped off from the Magi-
not line and made a small penetra-
ton into Germany near Saarbruck-
en-.
There was nothing official on any
operations north of Metz, where
the Germans yesterday said strong
forces were within II miles of the
Saar border and only 20 miles
from Siegfried line outposts along
the Saar river.
American columns streamed
northward, west and east Of Sc
dan, and the Germans reported a
fierce" tank battle at Longwy, two
miles from the border of the Duchy
Of Luxembourg-which probably
meant that few enemy tanks had
tried to stop the American armor.
AS the battle for Belgium broke
in full fury, Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hover broadcast a warning to the
Germans that Belgian forces of the
interior were fighting shoulder to
shoulder with the Allies and "all
Atrocities committed against mem
bers of forces under my COM
mand would be punished.
Belgian Prime Minister Hubert
Pierlot told his people in a broad
cast from London that "before
many days" Germany would be in.
vaded from both the west and east
and would be occupied entirely.
Eisenhower told the patriots to
protect mines and Industrial in.

movements and keep him from
blowing up oil stores which soon
would be needed by Belgian and
other Allied armies, and declared
that IF all play their part, the lib

THE GUARDIAN
A TRIBUTE
BY Eugene Clarke

William Monroe Trotter's
brain child, The Boston Guard
ian, was born forty-three years
ago, at the turn of the century,
, in the year of 1901. For thirty
three of those forty-three
years, it was zealously Eur-
tured and diligently guided by
its creator until the Divine Gre
ator interviewed and called
Monroe Trotter to the Great
Beyond.
Monroe Trotter was an ideal
list and a great humanitarian,
who always had the courage of
his conviction to do what was
right as he saw it, no matter
what the consequences.
He graduated from Harvard
with high honors in 1895 and
Immediately went into the
mortgage brokerage business
with a well established firm,
where in few years he built
up a very lucrative business.
Trotter was well on his way to
financial success in his bust
ness when he gave it up to ven
ture out into the field of jour

SONNET: THE FIRST CHRISTMAS
By st. Clair Kirton

A sudden blaze of glory changed the night
Into of dazzling brilliancy.
BeWidered by this stroke of destiny,
The Shepherds marveed at the heavenly sight
Fear not! Rang through the stiffness of the air.
For unto you is born in Bethlehem
The Christ; Prince; of royal Davids stem,
His Name all generations shall revere!
And you shall find this Babe the Prince of Peace,
The revelation of Gods Love for all,
In lowly garb reposing in STALL
The blessings of His reign shall never cease!"
To God in highest heaven let angels sng
TO men on earth let Peace eternal ring!

Railroad Unions Must
Protect the CoIored

WASHINGTON - The U. S.
Supreme Court unanimously
ruled Monday that colored
worknen on railroads are pro-
tected by the Railway Labor Act
against management labor pacts
seeking to drive them out of
their Jobs or deny them pro-
motions.
Many colored locomotives
were in danger Of losing their
jobs on Southern railroads as
the result of a 1941 collective
bargaining agreement between
the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen and 81
Southern railroads.
Chief Justice Stone, who read
the opinion, declared that the
brotherhood must represent all
employees IN ltS negotiations
with the railroads because the
Railway Laser Act makes it the
exclusive bargaining agent of an
entire craft" Of employees.
Unless the labor Union re-
presenting a craft" Chief Jus
tice Stone said, loves some
duty to represent non union
members of the craft, at least
to the extent of not discrimi-
mating against them as such in
the contracts which it makes as
their representatives, the min
GRITTY would be left with no
means of protecting their inter-
estS or, indeed, their right to
earn a livelihood by pursuing
the occupation in which they
are employed"
