PATTON TURNS TRICK

Patton's electrifying entry into
the battle of the Ardennes at one
Of the blackeSt hours of the west
ern campaign held the promise of
turning an American disaster into
the greatest victory" called for by
General Dwight D. Eisenhower in
his order of the day last week.
But headquarters revealed it was
made at great cost. When the Third
army,s armored divisions were
wheeled northward to reinforce the
first army flank on December 20
they were forced to abandon the
Saar river brio gehead at Dillingen,
which took two weeks of bloody
fighting to establish.
That withdrawal was believed to
have been one of the primary OBJ
jectiveS of Field Marshal Karl Won
RundStedtS offensive and, while
thwarteC in his drive on Liege and
Antwerp, the Nazi commander had
achieved a limited success.
United Press War Correspondent
Robert Richards disclosed in a ois-
patch from the Third army front
that Patton's battle plan was made
and his troops were on the move
a few hours after receipt of Eisen-
hoWer's order.

last May 4. Sergeant Kenyon went
on his first mission May %. He was
overhead on D-Day on two missions.
On the first mission the skies were
so overcast that it was impossible to
drop bombs for fear they would
strike the Americans. Il shed tears
because we couldn't help those poor
fellows below us the sergeant
wrote his mother. They returned
later in the day, however, and
dropped their bombs.
He was graduated as gunner
with the highest record of any man
in the school at Tyndale, Florida.
He attended bombing school in Den
yer. Colorado. He was based in Eng
land and one time the plane ran out
of gasoline and it was necessary to
dump out all movable objects to get
the ship home. Another time the
plane was shot full of holes"

Clusters, two Bronze Stars and the
DISTINGUISHED Flying Cross, the lat

During his spare time between

doesn't need to wire for her. She
already is on her way"
UNFIT STRUCTURES
The Rev. Hayden Sears told the
meeting that the housing now in use
in Ell Centro is largely Substandard,
and actually unfit for human habi-
tation.
Abel told the meeting that from
his study CT Ell Centro's problem
that what is needed in Ell Centro,
and at once, is provision for about
1000 people or families who are re-
quired for some kind of essential
work. He expected to report the
canvass CT the situation to the Ma

Defies Orders

army officer insisted. however, that
the war department was operating
all plants named in the seizure
order. He admitted that the army
did not yet have possession.
Business at the huge Chicago
plant went on as usual Friday, and
to all outward appearances the op-
erationS were conducted by Wards
officers rather than the army. It
was payday in the mail order de-
partment, and the checks were
signed by q Ward official.
"BusineS sis going on as usual
and will be carried on as usual,
probably, until the courts rule
otherwise" H. l.. Pearson, vice
president and treasurer said.
SECOND DEFY
1t was the second time in nine
months that Avery has defied a
presidential seizure order. Last
April his defiance resulted in his
eviction by two soldiers.
The seizure order, served by Major
General Byron, warned that any
is subject to severe penalties
Meanwhile, there were indications
that the government was preparing
to take over Ward properties in
Kansas City, Missouri, and Tren-
ton, New Jersey, in addition to those
seized in Chicago, Detroit, Jamaica,
New York; Denver, Colorado; st.
Paul; Portland, Oregon and San
Rafael, California.
A dispatch from Washington
Thursday night said the government
might seize the Kansas City and
Trenton plants if the company con-
tinueS to ignore war labor board
directives.
AveryS refusal to recognize the
validity OF the governments seizure
is based on his contention that the
President does not have the power
under the Smith-Connally act to
seize non-war plants.
EXPLAINS STAND
Avery formally explained his de-
fiance of the seizure late yester-
day, more than five hours after the
order was executed.
Wards cannot in good citizenship
accept or obey the commands OF
those who have no legal power to
give them and who are seeking to
deprive Wards of its constitutional
rights and liberties" his statement
said Wards takes this position in
defense of the constitutional rights
and liberties of every citizen of the
United States.
The issues are now before the
courts, where Wards has sought for
two years to have them decided.
Wards welcomes the opportunity to
present its case"
Action on the governments petit
ton for a temporary injunction re-
straining company officials from in
terfering with operation of the fa-
cilities awaited the appearance in
court OF Wards attorneys. The
firm has 20 days in which to an

Others also had seen the men at
the industrial district. The man
with the whiskers was seen once

appearance of men answering the
