the Rhine was merely inciden-
tai to what is happening now.
There have been disappoint-
ments and the inevitable mis-
calculations in these mass I'M
dertakings. The second time we
were stalled was in December.
Then the Germans broke
through to create the Ardennes
bulge. But some of the luck and
some of the breaks were with the
Allies, as will be more widely
known when the whole story can
be told.
Watch Field Marshal Sir Ber-
nard L. Montgomery's drive in the
north. His smoke-screened prepara-
tons tipped the Germans some
weeks ago they would be hit hard
by Monty. But they didn't know
when. The man in the beret is
driving now for the west Phallan
plain, the broad highway to Ber-
lin. It is an area where tanks and
other. armored vehicles can roam,
prowl, encircle and kill. On that
flat land they need not bother with
roads.
There is no reason to believe
that the Allies will sweep to Ber-
lin as easily or as fast as they
rolled to Paris and beyond last
summer. But neither is it likely
this time that the Allied spearnead
will be stopped for lack OF fuel,
food or ammunition.
There is bad weather ahead, the
wet days of spring. But observers
believe the tanks and half tracks
can bull their way through the
mud. They know the infantry can

100000 MEN OFF J0B5 IN
 BIG CENTER5
Labor Strife Focused on Detroit Ared-Auto
 Making Stopped
(By The Associated Press)

Labor disputes, showing a steady rise across the country since V-J Day and the subsequent ending of wartime's no-strike pledge, today kept more than 100000 workers off their jobs, new high for the last several months.
 The spotlight along the nation labor front, focused to display the change-over from war to peace time production, fell directly on the labor strife in Detroit's heavy in dustrial area. But it touched over a wide section of the east where labor issues brought unrest to a varied line of business and industry.
 In the Detroit area, some 75,000 workers were idle as direct result of labor controversies. The Ford Motor Company laid off 50,OOO automobile workers yesterday and all plants in the country stopped production of new autos, tractors, trucks and engines.
 Henry Ford, 2nd., exec. vice-presi- dent, attributed the lay-offs to "crippling and unauthorized strikes" against the company's suppliers and to irresponsible labor groups" A Ford Company statement said '"We don't know when we can reopen our plants" Prior to the lay-offs, total Ford employment was 100000 The remaining employees are en- ployed on maintenance or recon version work.
 The Ford Company's layoff came as the CIO-United Automobile Workers Union disclosed a post war union program seeking 30 per cent wage increases throughout the industry with strikes as the weapon to get them. At the same time, the international executive board of the JAW held a trial" of of ficers of Detroit Local, 174, which for more than three weeks has carried on a strike at the Kelsey Hayes Wheel Company. The 45,000 on strike caused a curtailment of production at the Ford Company last week and the layoff of 30,000 workers because of lackS of certain supplies.

WOULD INTERVENE

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Sept. 15- The City of Anchorage has filed an application with the Civil Aero nautics Board for the right to in tervene in hearings on applications of Northwest Airlines and others seeking permission to operate over the North Pacific route to the Orient.
 The petition contended that "con- flicting private interests of various applicants may initiate against the proper consideration of the eco homie needs and future welfare of the City of Anchorage and South western Alaska.
 It asserted the city's intervention could more clearly define the issues at stake.
 The city council said it decided to seek permission to intervene in the Washington hearings next month after Pacific Northwest aviation interests pressed for a North Pacific route via Seattle as opposed to the inland route recom- mended by CAB examiners, which would traverse Canada to Anchor age via Edmonton, Alta.

 He insisted he must report to Navy Comdr.
