LONDON, Nov. 8.-American
Sd Army troops today charged
in a dawn offensive at points
along a 25-mile front between
Metz and Nancy, seized four
llghtly-contested villages and
scored advances up to a mile.
To the north, doughboys of the
lst Army still battled strongly re-
lnforced Germans in the town of
Vossenack, Is miles southeast Of
Aachen. Bloody and as yet incon-
elusive fighting continued through
out the Hurtgen Forest area. Two
fNazi counterattacks near Schmidt
were broken.
The Sd Army substantially i'm
proved its line between Nancy and
Metz, a front dispatch said. Mid
way between the two French cities,
the Americans crossed the Seille
River. Resistance ranged from light
to moderate.
The jumpoff followed an hour OF
artillery preparation and was made
across fields sodden with 36 hours
of rain.
Germans Wreck Bridges.
In Holland, the Germans retrea-
ing to the north bank of the Mas
CMeuse) River had wrecked every
river bridge between the sea and
Hedel, north of s Hertoeenbosch,
a field dispatch said.
i OF the fighting below Aachen, to-
days communiQue said, Fighting
still is in progress in the village OF
Vossenack. Latest field reports
said the Americans held one-half
the village, the Germans the other
half.
In the region Immediately west
of Schmidt. from which the dough-
boys were thrown back in their of
fensive that began last Friday, the
Americans improved their positions
yesterday and mopped up pockets
of resistance. Fighter -bombers at
tackled enemy concentrations in
that area.
Front dispatches said the battle
in and around Vossenack was "as
savage as the struggle for Aachen-
and of much greater scope"
Battle in Sixth Day.
The battle was in its sixth day.
In the heart of Vossenack, the
Americans were in one wing of .
church, the Germans in another.
American artillery and dive
bombers shelled German positions
yesterday despite the proximity Of
friendly forces.
With the approaches to the Ger
man cities of Duren and Cologne at
stake, the enemy threw heavy con-
lcentrations of tanks into repeated
counterattacks. A front dispatch
said possibly so tanks were massed
in the Schmidt area alone.
The Germans now have been
driven from all except one small
pocket south of the Mas River in
Holland.
Small Force Holding Ont.
Allied forces now hold the entire
south shore of the Hollandsch Diep
and the Mas River with the ex-
ception on an area south and east
of the destroyed Moerdijk bridges
where small isolated force of the
enemy is still holding out" the COM
munique said.
On Walcheren Island, just north
of the Schelde Estuary approach to
the port of Antwerp, the Germans
have now been restricted to an area
northeast of Domburg on the north
shore. But in that region they still
had some gun positions in opera

French Art Treasures in
Place Unknown to Germans

LONDON-UP-Only 20 men in
the world know where three OF the
worlds greatest art treasurers-
the Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory
and the Venus de Milo-are hidden.
Commander Claude Schetfer cura-
tor OF the French National Muse
ums, who now is in London, told
the United Press he is convinced
the famous treasurers are safe be-
cause the secret of their hideaway
is so well guarded. Not even
Marshal Petain knows the answer.
"The Germans tried to get Vichy
TO bring them back to their home
in the Louvre, promising they would
be well cared for, but the govern
ment refused" Scheffer said.
French museum authorities work
ed for years prior to the war on
plans to remove thousands OF the
most valuable paintings, statues
aud archaeological pieces. Trusted
men whose own colleagues working
in the same room did not know the
secret hid them first from bombs
and then from the German inva-
sion. The Mona Lisa was for time
concealed in Paris. Then it was
taken to a secret place miles from
any town or village.
Scheffer predicts that II may be
years before art objects from
French private collections. and the
smaller French museums. which
have been looted by the Germans,
will be traced and recovered. Many
Of them he says are lost for good,
Art authorities here say that
France will count heavily on Amer
icas aid in getting back its treas
ures. The most artistic country in
the world hopes the United States
The Ypsilanti daily press. (Ypsilanti, Mich.) 1928-1962, 1944-01-12

will add pressure and tell the Ger
mans that they must either trace
such articles or surrender one OF
equivalent value from their own
museums. This is the line takep by
the Allied Commission which has
been esta blished in London to make
plans for the restoration OF Euro
pean museums to prewar greatness.
Poland is going to prove the big
gest headache to the Commission.
There the Germans have not only
looted but Destroyed archives so
that even the authorities will be
unable to trace the property.
France has been let off compare
lively lightly so far. Worst to suffer
there have been the great private
collections OF Jewish families like
the Rothschilds and WELLS.
Commander Scheffer believes
that some European paintings-not
the most famous-may now be in
America, sold by the Germans to
Swiss or Spanish dealers and
bought by private individuals. No
American museum would purchase
any Of the leading objects dart be
cause their curators would know
from whence they came and that
they must have been removed by
the Germans.
Greatest complication for the
commission will be to obtain the
many paintings which the Germans
have seized and sold to buyers in
neutral countries like Sweden.
Private and museum collections
Of old gold coins. gold chalices and
other precious metal objects will he
almost impossible to recover. The
Germans, it is believed. will melt
them down or conceal them for 10
or Is years and then sell them.
