Announcement of his decision to
retire was made by E. P. Evans,

WASHINGTON, Dec. d. up -
TIE national income broke all rec

approximately $3.50, 1000, 100000, the
Commerce Department announced
today.
But it added that the Nation now

time economic activity.
Business hit the top early in the

outright underestimate OF Ger
man striking power, coupled with
either a failure to learn OF, or TO
appreciate, Won Rundstedt' mo-

the lines, appeared more than ever
today to be the major factors be-
hind this first serious Allied SET
back since the successful INVASION
of Europe.
That would seem to place the
responsibility for the Nazl break
through high up in the Allied stait
and to suggest that any important
shakeup in the command - none
has materialized as yet - would
amount to finding a scapegoat.
However, the fortnight Allied
battle boss, Gen. Dwight D. Eisen-
hover. has shown no inclination to
hunt for scapegoats, either here, or
previously during his command OF
the Mediterranean theater. In this
respect it can be recalled that the
Allied m m a n d displayed
souare-fisted directness in support
ing his generals right down the line
from Field Marshal Montgomery
on back in the days when slow
progress around C a e n brought
some public criticism OF his Brit
ish colleague.
Obviously, as result of the Ma.
ri counterattack. certain Allied
troop-shifts have been made. When
the enemy broke through, his for
ces were running swild against al
most no opposition. Now they are

the German salient in Bel

lean garrison of the Belgian town
of Bastogne, which had been en-
circled and under attack since De.
cember 20, had been relived and
the siege raised.
American tanks, which were five
miles south of Bastogne "a hours
previously, burst deep into the Ger
man bulge and linked up with the
besieged force which had spurned
German demands for surrender
and had knocked out q enemy
tanks in its week of isolated bat
tie. A dispatch from Supreme
Headquarters said the relieving for
ces were of considerable size.
The Allied controlled Luxem-
bourg radio said the base of the
German corridor had been narrow
ed to less than 20 miles, and this
was almost exactly t h e mileage
from Bastogne northWard to last
reported Allied positions on the
northern side near Lierneux.

The latest bag included con-

the total of American naval craft
lost since Pearl Harbor.
Secretary of the Navy James v.
Forrestal said that the submarine
haul, which raised to 934 the num-
Der of Jap vessels sunk by subma-

boosted to more than 100000 tons
the total of enemy shipping sunk
by the undersea raiders.
He said he could not reveal now
any details about the sinking of
the carrier - the first definitely
known to have been sunk by Amer
lean submarines which previously
had chalked up two as probably
sunk and two others as damaged.
