hover. As at Pearl Harbor, War Department routine required that each commander be on his own.
 On Dec. Is, a new and relatively green division, the 1O6th, was moved into the Ardennes Forest opposite the German lines. It had arrived in France less than a month before Never before had it been under fire. Early the next morning, Dec. Is, Hitler launched his long planned putsch. His In- telligence must have been excellent.
 Last year, this columns com ments on the Belgian Bulge were telegraphed in abbreviated form to Europe and interpreted by mem bers of the 106th Division as a reflection on their courage. No such reflection was ever intended. On the contrary, h cir resistance was one of the most heroic of the entire war.
 But what I ulo report last year, and what still is true, is that just before the l06th Division sailed. it's older field commanders were re- placed with younger colonels and lieutenant colonels who had never been under fire. And while every man and officer fought valiantly and to the last ditch against over whelming odds, the entire 106th- thanks to inferior Intelligence sup port and no time to prepare-was virtually wiped out.
 Those are some of the things which should be probed in one of the wars worst tragedies, if we are to improve military efficiency in the future.

WEDNESDAY,, SEPTEMBER 26

Powerful benefic aspects rule to- day. It is a most promising day for persons who wield authority.
 Heart And Home
 A promising day for starting new ventures and favorable for change of residence. The stars encourage an optimistic outlook and presage much happiness in American homes. Cos sip should be avoided, for it is even more perilous than usual under this configuration.
 Business Affairs
 The stock market will focus un- usual attention. Extreme fluctua- tions may be expected through the Autumn. Revelations of waste in our war supplies will arouse indig- nation.
 National Issues
 According to the seers, this is a time to look forward and not back ward. Whatever is unpleasant should beforgotten as new careers begin after the disruptionS of war. Special care should be observed in regard to the spoken word.
 International Affairs
 Conflicting opinions as to the treatment of the Mikado will cause serious reactions. According to the stars. the fate of the emperor will be decided by his long g-deluded people and death by suicide will end his reign.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of pleasant work and well-earned rewards. Wo- men will be especially lucky.
 Children born on this day probab- ly will be endowed with many tal- ents. Intuition that amounts to- psychic vision may belong to many

von Rundstedt Last December, American correspondents cabled ac- counts of how von Rundstedt had planned and led the Ardennes at tack. But when interviewers asked him about the Belgian Bulge, he gruffly replied:
 Do not connect we with that operation. That was Model"
 Von Rundstedt was referring to Field Marshal Gen. Walther von Model, his colleague on the Western Front, who had been strong for Hitler's plan to catch the American Army off-base.
 Despite the opposition of regular Germ an Army officers. Hitler guessed shrewdly in picking the time and place for his attack Tragic inside fact, however, is that U. s. forces would not have been caught mapping if the advice of two War Department colonels in Wash ington had been taken; also the advice of the Assistant Secretary of War, John McCloy.
 * s *
 WASHINGTON Gh,. NO ADVICE
 MT. McCloy, looking at the map of the Western Front several days before the Germans launched their surprise attack and noting the thinly-spread American forces in the Ardennes Forest, remarked that he thought this was taking a chance. Members of the General Staff, however, reminded him that Gen. Eisenhower knew what he was doing.
 Gen. Marshall made it a point never to give orders or suggestions to commanders in the field; so, as at Pearl Harbor, the man on the job was left to run his show with out advice from Washington.
 The warning of the two colonels, however, was much stronger. They were Col Truman Smith and Col. Percy Blair, who went to Gen Clayton Bissell a week before the bulge attack and advised him what they feared was coming They urged that he send a message to Gen. Eisenhower. Bissell, however, fell back on the General Staff policy that it was not Washington s job to instruct field commanders. Col. Truman Smith is probably the most outstanding expert on Germany in the American Army. Having spent several years as Military Attache in Berlin, he knows many German Army com manders personally, how they think and how they operate. Just before the war. however, he got in dutch because of his friendship for Charles Lindbergh, and at one time Supre me Court Justice Felix Frankfurter urged Roosevelt to have him court-martialed. i Gen. Bissell, head of Intelligence, is an air officer, who spent large part of this war in India. When he ignored the oral advice of Colonels Smith and Blair, the two officers wrote a memorandum put ting themselves on record that there was grave danger in the Ardennes and that Gen. Eisenhower should be appraised of that fact. | * * #

able in Europe. It was the longest airborne troop carrying feat in history.
 Also it never leaked out that certain U. s. Intelligence officers in Washington warned that the bulge attack was coming, and that nothing was done to prepare for 1t. These are few of the things Congress could investigate with profit to future military efficiency. Here are some more.

NAZI CAPTIVES TALK

Congress doesn't know it, though the Army does, that captured Ger man officers have thrown signifi- cent light on the Belgian bulge operation.
 They have testified that the bulge operation as early as Mo- vember (though it didn't get started until Dec. 16). It was planned by Hitler himself. German generals were taken by a circuitous route to Hitler's headquarters, then near Frankfurt, where they were searched and placed in chairs four feet apart
 Remembering how one colonel brought in bomb concealed in a brief case at the last staff meeting, Hitler took no chances His Gestapo men wanted to be able to see both sides of the chair in which each general sat; also, didn't want the generals to know exactly where Hitler's headquarters were
 Hitler then unfolded his plan. The generals debated whether the German Army could squeeze enough gasoline and supplies from other operations to start the bulge at tack. Most of the generals were opposed. They thought the idea was sheer suicide, But Hitler's mad fanaticism decreed that this one last attempt must be made to break the American line and get through to Brussels.

Ernie Pyle Is Buried
On Ie Island With
Military Honors
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
IE ISLAND, April 20.-Machine
guns beat a sharp tattoo and mortars
barked at the front only short dis
tance ahead today as Ernie Pyle, the
Doughboy's reporter, was buried
with military honors.
Battle-grimed Yanks stood at at
tention as services were said for
the columnist who was struck down
by Japanese machine-gun fire Wed
nesday.
Among those attending the fu-
neral on this tiny island near
Okinawa were Maj. Gen. Andrew
D. Bruce, 77th Division commander
and 1t. Col. Joseph B. Coolidge Of
Helena, Ark, who was with Mr.
Pyle when he was killed.
Yanks Return to Front.
When the service was concluded
Gen. Bruce drove off in his jeer
to command post, and Yank in
fantrymen slogged on up to the
front.
Services were conducted in the
77th Division Cemetery by Chaplain
N. B. Saucier, former pastor of a
Coffeyville (Miss.) church.
Solemn GIs, holding pistols at the
ready and retaining their helmets
on order of Gen. Bruce, who feared
possible sniper fire. heard Chaplain
Saucier recite the funeral prayer.
The surroundings seemed fitting
for Ernie, who had seen action on SC
many battle fronts. Even the funeral
party, on the way to the cemetery
had to duck mortar shell.

PEELED to spend their summers in
sultry Washington, he declared.
THE city of Washington is as
poor place as any in the Nation
in which to spend the summers, he
said. He thinks Congress ought to
recess when the mercury starts
going up and reconvene in the fall
The persecution, he explained
came from the press and radio in
connection with the controversy
over extra gasoline rations for legis-
lators back in 1912 and the proposed
pension plan at about the \ same
time. In the past year or SO. he
said, the attitude of the press has
improved
II think the press realized it went
off the deep end on the ration cards
and pensions and is leaning over
backwards now to present our side, "
he said. Just to make sure this
policy continues, Mr.. Coffee pro-
posed that Congress have a press
relations department, the same as
all the Federal agencies have.
Mr.. Coffee admitted there have
been times in the past Is or 20 years
when Congress members themselves
have been largely responsible for a
contemptuous attitude toward them
on the part of the public.
I'VE have had a few eccentric
Senators and Representatives whose
conduct has not been all it should
be-" he said You all know to
whom I'm referring"
Mr.. Coffee indorsed the idea of
putting Congress on the radio from
time to time.
Even housewives would follow
their Senators more closely than
their soap operas" he said.
Representative Adams, Republic
an, of New Hampshire, a freshman
member of the House, agreed that
congressional pay is too low. He
suggested this could be remedied by
allowing each member $500 a year
for living expenses in Washington.
He said he believed lawmakers
should get pensions after their
years of service and said I'VE should
have no timidity about that at all
He also proposed that the term of
a Representative be increased to
six years, the same as that of a
Senator.

Senator La Toilette, Progressive, OF
