 TWO ARMIES

Armys Aachen breach of the Seig- fried Line.
 The tactical assault. on a scale comparable with the carpet bomb ings which preceded the St. Lc Dreakthrough, touched off Patton's new Metz. and Nancy offensive from within sight of the Swiss Alps to the sodden marshes of Holland.
 The Allied armies hammered the Germans toward the prewar frontier as the First French Army plowed forward on a 25-mile front on both sides of the Do,ibs River to a point within eleven miles of Belfort, in the historic gap of the Rhine.
 Allied northern armies in Holland pushed out a seven to eight-mile gain in two days and drove within a mile of the Maas River in the Roermond. area and within 38 miles of Dusseldorf on the Rhine.
 The sudden break to the north from Metz brought U. s. Third Army troops in the eight-day offensive to within a mile and a half of the out skirts of the city. Although the Americans to the southeast and west gave ground slightly, losing one fort and villages north of Metz near the Luxembourg border. American astride the Maginot line pushed for ward another mile near Ewendorf, only four miles from the German frontier.

 Formal protests, by seven union, against granting exclusive rights to the Indians was filed at the opening of the hearing by Walter c.
