Election Causes Changes.
The election brought about five
vacancies In the Appropriations
Committee-three Democratic and
two Republican.
Mr.. Cannon said he was reluctant
to break up the membership of the
subcommittee which writes the an
nual District supply bills. Nothing
definite has been decided, he said
but he stressed the demands on 9TH
er appropriations subcommittees for
members Of training and ability.
There apparently is no question
that Representative Stefan, Repub-
lican. of Nebraska, ranking minority
member of the subcommittee, will
continue in that capacity. He Is
moving to the ranking minority
position on the State. Commerce
and Justice subcommittee on ap-
priations, but since commit
| tee Craftsmanship is not involved he
could continue on the District SUBJ
committee. where he has developed
an abiding interest in Washington
affairs.
! Hearings Set for April.
Mr.. Coffee told The Sunday Star
he wishes to retain his subcommit-
tee Craftsmanship II he is not shift
ed to the Senate.
Should Mr.. Coffee as we'll as Rep
resentatives Anderson and Norrell
leave the subcommittee only one
veteran" Democrat would be left
on the subcommittee of four Demo-
Gratis and three Republicans. Ir
that event the ranking majority
member would be Representative
Whitten of Mississippi.

broke. and Won Rundstedt called or
an all-out air effort by the German
air force to keep thousands of Allied
bombers and fighters from beating
his lifelines to pulp.
The German air force made Its
best effort since 1910, but it was not
good enough. In the next five days
the Germans lost more than 600
planes. while thousands of Ameri-
can fighters, fighter-bombers, light
medium and heavy bombers sucked
at Won Rundstedt's strength.
On December % Gen. Patton
started drive from the south to
relieve the surrounded 10lst Di-
vision and around St. Oumont
American attacks started to ham,
mer back the Germans into a
round salient.
AT the same time the 7th Armored
fought out from St. With and with
other elements pushed back the ex-
hausted western elements of Won
Rundstedt's men.
Nazis Needed Time.
Won Runstedts first quick grab al
the rich prize OF Liege had beer
beaten back with some broker
fingers. The Nazi field marshal
needed time to regroup for a new
efforts and went onto the defensive
He threw up an armored ring
around the Belgium bulge and q
rugged defense to Gen. Patton's
drive from the south.
Within this ring he now is plan
ming his next move and juggling
his forces. Adverse weather agair
has come to his aid, cloaking his
movements.
That is how the battle now stands
Even though the first attempt
failed. the Germans still have /
powerful punch left. They have
many more uncommitted divisions
in addition to two panZers armies
already in the deep salient in the
western front.
The NaZi field marshal has two
choices Of action. He can launch q
new all-out assault to grab Liege
committing his reserves in final
attack north probably along with
another attack in another sector
Of the front to divert Allied strength
Or he can withdraw into Germany
satisfied that his offensive has
achieved great slowing effect on
Allied military plans for the winter
May Conserve Strength.
This would give him the advan-
tage of conserving his strength for
future battles and retiring from the
battlefield with victory.
If Won Runstedt goes back, 1t
now is on record that he dealt AL
lied military might a severe blow
and scrambled the western front
with giant spelling attack. The
Germans did the same thing in
the winter of 1943, upsetting the
Russians who were preparing their
offensive. It was estimated then
that the Germans had gained as
much as three months valuable
time.
If Won Runstedt goes on, he risks
defeat from Allied counterblows
which may greatly cripple Ger
many's war effort. At the same time
he may have decided that it is now
or never anG throw everything into
final lunge, gambling Germany's
fate.
This latter course appears more
possible as the German people have

! A postponement of the trial of

Staying of 18-year-old Dorothy Ber-
rum, now set for January 8, seemed
possible with the announcement
yesterday by p. Bateman Ennis. the
defendants attorney, that he plans
to ask District Court on Tuesday

Explaining that he had been busy

fense.

Mcfarland is accused of killing
Miss Berrum October on the East

He also was indicted on charges
Of assaulting and Staying Mrs. Mar

findings of the National Association

ganization completed a survey Of
the industry's postwar needs.
Normally, the country's inter-
city buslines require upward Of
1000 motor coaches a year." said
Arthur M. Hill, association presi-
dent. Because transportation is
vital to the war effort, the manu-
facture of a limited number of buses
has been permitted in the past three
years, but far less than the actual
requirements were met Further
more, these are victory models that
lack the comfort and luxury fea-
lures postwar travellers will demand.
while the intercity bus indus
try's requirement of 5000 motor
coaches may appear small in COM
parison with the projected market
for passenger cars" Mr.. Hi ex-
planned, 1T should be remembered
that highway buses, with new luxury
appointments, will average 5000
in cost and will require cor
respondingly greater number of man
hours for manufacture. Even when
the pentup demand is met, the
anticipated postwar travel boom will
send requirements for subsequent
years above previous levels"
The plans of nearly all bus COM
panies also provide for the complete
rebuilding of a major portion of
their fleets when manpower and
parts are available.
Two hundred tons of apples from
