from the Royal Sovereign. In theory,
he was retired in 1858, but the COM
mencement Of the prevailing conflict
found him at and ready. He was
on shore duty at Dover when the
peril of the British troops in France
became apparent in May. 1910. The
number of men he brought safely
across the Channel was nearly four
hundred thousand.
Subsequently, Admiral Ramsay
planned the invasions OF Africa and
Sicily and commanded "the greatest
}amphibious maneuver Of all time
the Normandy beachhead invasion. /"
Just few days more than q year ago
he was named naval commander in
chief Of the combined Allied opera
tions, General Eisenhower's principal
deputy in everything relating to
activity on the water. His last i'm
portant task was the clearing Of the
port OF Antwerp in November.
It is obvious, Of course, that full
appreciation Of Admiral Ramsay's
contribution to eventual victory over
the European branch OF the Axis
must wait the days Of peace which
finally will come. Meanwhile. his
American comrades in arms and the
civilian public of the United States
part with him with profound regret
and sincere sorrow that he Is gone
so suddenly and so much too soon.

Admiral Rumsoy

The death of Admiral Sir Bertram
Home Ramsay in an airplane crash
near Paris is a tragedy from any
point Of view. He was man of
very great distinction and value.
The nickname Dynamo" described
his physical and intellectual energy
and aggressiveness. But there was
more to him than action and enter
prise. He also was possessed of no.
table powers of Judgment and dis
erection. What he did for the British
Army at Dunkcrque was achieved not
merely by being quick and effective
in performance. It likewise was
accomplished by the conscious and
deliberate development Of a whole
technique Of life.
Admiral Ramsay prepared for his
work in the Second World War by
hard service in the First. The son
of a brigadier general, he was born
to the business Of empire defense,
entered the Royal Navy at fifteen,
commanded monitor In the Dover
patrol in 1915, later was in charge
of the Weymouth, the Danae and the
Kent and was a member Of the
faculties of the British and imperial
naval war colleges. With Lord
Jellicoe he visited India and several
Of the dominions, then was chief
Of stan Of the China station. BY
1885 he was at the top Of the list
of the home deet and new his nag

tive accomplices from virtually the
entire soil Of France.
Furthermore, liberation from the
foreign enemy has been coupled with
successful start in the process OF
domestic refrigeration. France to-
day stands in striking contrast to
other liberated countries in having
averted civil strife by the establish
ment OF regime which enjoys gen.
eral popular confidence and is ac-
corded general political support.
This does not mean that the French
have solved fheir internal problems.
The current winter is a crucial test
Of nationsI stability. Yet sound
beginning has been made, while the
government has gained precious
prestige and authority by its diplo-
matte achievements, Of which the
ceremony at the State Department
on New Year Day is the climactic
conservation.

Theory of Slum Elimination

4hSoI VI DlulIl LiIIIillldllOu
To the Editor of The Star:
With Congress about to consider the
improvement or elimination of slum
areas, the natural question is: Where
are the slums of Washington?
They are not alone in alleys or on the
outskirts of the city. One of the worst
slums is located between the Capitol and
the White House. These are houses long
antiquated through lack of repair and
modernization, some up to 125 years old.
The people renting rooms in these
houses pay by the week the highest
prices in the city, considering the ac-
commodations.
But slum areas can be improved by
requiring property owners to meet q
reasonable standard of sanitation and
modernization and by limiting the num-
Der Of persons permitted to live In q
house or apartment rented for profit.
There should be monthly inspections by
authorities appointed for this purpose,
to see that properties rented for gain are
not allowed to become slum residences.
And slum areas can be eliminated
gradually by enacting law permitting
authorities permanently to remove from
these locations men and women with
long crime records, and those that de-
stroy the property and the morale Of a
neighborhood by continual brawls. filthy
living and illegal practices. EE g.

Quotes Presidents Promise
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
The seizure of Montgomery Ward by
the President has implications that
vitality affect the continuance of true
democracy in this country and there
fore is of the greatest import to every
citizen.
would like to recall to peoples mem
ory most solemn promise made by
the President. I quote his own words:
II tell you frankly that the Govern
ment of the United States will not order,
nor will the Congress pass legislation
ordering closed shop The Gov
ernment will never compel this SO to
join the union by Government decree;
that would be too much like the Hitler
method towards labor"
Sewell Avery accepts the Presidents
promise as valid, and we now see the
results. Gov Dewey in the recent
campaign again and again charged the
White House with lack of integrity and
his charge seems clearly proven when
this promise of the President Is COM
pared with his present action. How
long are the American people going to
be willing to be tricked this way?

Not Easy to Follow

The layman, II not the experts, will
have difficulty following the reason
Ing OF Stabilization Director vinson
in approving some OF the steel wage
increases recently granted by the
War Labor Board.
The question before Mr.. Vinson
was whether these increases, II ap-
proved. would be infiationary. His
answer presumably would have been
in the affirmative If the increases in
pay had necessitated price increases,
and in that event. under the stabili-
cation policy, he would have had to
disallow the wage increases.
But Mr.. Vinson, acting on advice
from OPA. ruled that the increases
could 60 into effect. The OPA said
that certain steel prices would have
to be increased, but added that these
increases would have been put into
effect irrespective of the wage de-
cision" because it is required by law
that prices shall be generally fair
and equitable.
In other words. the earnings Of
some steelmakers, without regard
to wage increases, were not high
enough to meet this requirement of
law. Hence, OPA intended to in
crease their permissible prices in
any event. But when the new wage
increases take effect 1t seems evi-
dent that one of two things will
happen to these producers. Either
their earnings will continue to be
less than required by law. or they
will have to be given an additional
price increase, which would be in
f1ationary, to offset the higher wages.
That, at any rate, is the way it
strikes the layman.

Western Front Moves
By Maj. George FieIdins Eliot

1t Is impossible at this time to form
any definite opinion as to the enemys
intentions on the western front.
In the Ardennes battle there are in
dications that the withdrawal of enemy
armor from positions west of the Lege-
Bastogne road continues, and front dis
patches on Wednesday morning sug-
gested that this armor was massing to
the flanks, partly to oppose any further
extension of the United States Sd Army
positions in the Bastogne area, but more
strongly to the north; front-line COR
respondents seemed to feel that the
latter move was probably defensive.
The jarring note in this general view
Is the report that the Germans are re-
inforcing their troops in the st. Hubert
area, we'll to the west of Bastogne; but
this may turn out to be no more than q
replacement Of armored troops by de-
fensive infantry elements.
The Sd Army is now engaged in trying
to clear out the Germans from the vicin-
ity Of the Bastogne-Arlou road, just east
of the road end southeast of Bastogne.
Having failed to dislodge the Germans
by frontal attack, Gen. Pattons men are
now working around the German hank
northeast of Bastogne. and are making
progress which must result In the with
drawal of the German troops unless it
can be checked.
A&A
Thus, In the Ardennes. neither side
clearly has the initiative at the mo-
ment, but the implications Of the pres
ent situation are that the next move
is somewhat more likely to be Gen.
Eisenhower's rather than Won Rund-
stedt's. There is nothing in the present
conditions which Is inconsistent with 4
German purpose to withdraw their ar
NOR and other mobile elements inside
the Siegfried defenses. Each day that
passes without q major Allied advance
reduces the possibility that any great
amount Of these mobile German forces
can be cut OF and destroyed
The German air activities, however,
suggest that the principal German
anxiety ct tho moment Is In the direc-
ton Of our tactical air power. II may
wen be that our planes are costing the
Germans more heavily than they Nka
Evening star., 1945-01-04

in the destruction Of tanks and armored
cars, as well as transport vehicles, and
that they are desperately anxious to
reduce these losseS-either to cover
general withdrawal from the Ardennes
salient, or to permit . regrouping Of
their mobile forces.
The attacks on the Allied airfields
Tuesday seem to have resulted in some
destruction Of our planes on the ground,
but there is no reason to think that the
Allied losses were In any way crippling;
quite the contrary. German plane losses
in the subsequent air combats were very
heavy indeed.
Perhaps we should emphasize German
pilot losses rather than plane losses;
for while, as these articles have re-
peatedly pointed out, the Germans have
been able to build up 9 considerable
reserve Of planes Especially fighters
they do not have q comparable reserve
Of competent pilots, largely for the rea-
son that fuel shortages have forced them
to cut down the period Of training to q
point far below maximum efficiency.
Won Rundstedt's present. position,
therefore, may very possibly be that Of
the man who had the bear by the tail
he Is afraid to hang on tfor fear Of our
gathering offensive power on the ground)
and he Is afraid to let 60 (for fear Of
what our tactical air forces viii do to
him as he tries to rctreat). # this Is the
case, Won Rundstedt's most probable
course would be to hang on temporarily.
pray for bad weather, and get out as
fast as he could when 1t comes
The catch to that is that we may be
able to hit him very hard before the
weatherman does him any more favors.
II this estimate Of the Ardennes sit
uation is anywhere near correct, then
1t seems likely that the German attacks
on the Saar and in the Bitche area are
principally diversionary In nature.
The balance Of evidence would seem
to incline toward the view that the
Germans are merely trying to keep as
many American troops as possible PIN
ned down in Lorraine and 50 prevent
further reinforcements from being de-
tached to the ID Army Ia the Bastogne
area.
