mind the admonitlon of the ladies of Morris, Minn.
 'They told me to keep Q very close eye on Mrs. Roosevelt" she re- ported "and see if she really did wear cotton hose. I had planned to do this at the party at the White House, but when got off the train, who do you think was the first per- son I saw?"
 Othman, who's sharp about those things, made one guess: Mrs. Roose- velt.
 Right" said Mrs. Ettesvold, but she wash there to meet us. She was meeting some other people on our train. Her daughter, this Mrs. Boet- tiger, and her children. So got a good look at Mrs. Roosevelt's stock ings and I know what they were made of"
 Not cotton, said Mrs. Ettesvold, Q lady who does not make mistakes,
 The champion farmer and his wife eventually go to their hotel. The phone rang and there was some body on the line, jabbering away In Norwegian. Ettesvold knew who thta was.
 Yes sir" said Mrs. E., it was Dr. Shipstead. One of the best dentists in Carlos County He made my first bridge work"
 Mrs. Ettesvold smiled and I can testify that the senator is a handy man with the drill. I never did sec prettier teeth. Their owner said she and her husband were enjoying themselvs.
 Ettevold said they certainly were; he wished he was home with the COWS. What he meant was that he had six children in the armed serv- ices and nobody to take care of the cattle except of his wifes 67-year- old brother. Furthermore he's a Dewey man and this doesn't seem to be exactly the place for him, even though Senators Ball of Minn., and Gurney of s. D., gave up their tickets so that he and the Missus could view the festivities.

Slon.
 Detachment EnclrCled
 Third Army forces to the south east, meanwhile, enclrcled a German detachment of undiselosed size just east of the Luxembourg German border south of Nennig and ware rec ported mopping up the trapped NaZis.
 German Infantry, supported by at least l5 tanks counter-at attacked in the Butzdorf area two miles south east of Nninnig in futile attempt to relieve the trapped force Some enemy tanks penetrated Butzdort but the village was reported still in American hands.
 On the Alsace plain, the Germans extended their bridgehead north east of Strasbourg by another two miles by showing out north of Dal- hunden in considerable force to tako the adjoining villages of Dcngol- sheim. Sessenheim and Stattmntten. American Seventh Army troops counter attacked immediately and won back Sessenheim, but they fail- cd to dislodge the Germans from the other two towns.
 Six miles to the southwest, almost at the center Of the l0-milc long bridgehead, the Americans swarm ed back into Herrlisheim and began clearing out the Nazis there, while other units stabbed out north and east of the town. Strong German forces still were reported firmly en- trenched, however, in Gambeheim and Offendorf. three miles south and a mile east of Herrlishelm.
 Farther to the northwest, the Germans threw in e heavy counters attack against Hatten and cut the American hold on that town to 6 small ocket In the southwestern corner Very heavy fighting ragged through the streets early today with the Americans hanging on grimly under almost continuous tank and infantry attacks.
 Nazi infantrymen inAltrated into the Hagenau Forest southeast of Hatten, but they were disposed of quickly by American tanks that broke into their positions and kilI- ed more than 200 of the enemy. A mile northwest of Hatten, fierce street fighting was continuing in Rittcrshoffen where Seventh Array troops wiped out all but two of 0ye German strongpoints In the town.

as cargo" Aks said he and the other two servicemen had been trav- cling on 70" priorities.
 Army Air transport regulations define m "A" priority as one cov- cring cargo required by an emer- gency so acute that precedence should be given over all other traf- flc, .. "The same regulations inter- pret n 70" rating as vital to the war effort but not ol an ex- tremely urgent nature"
 Mrs, Roosevelt said in an inter- view at Albuquerque where she was located aboard train enroute to Washington for the inauguration of her father-in-law that she heceived the dog from her husband in Eng land and expressed surprise at Le- roy's story,
 T assure you my dog travels as freight and awaits his turn," she said.
 She said the l30-pound dog, Blaze, was delivered to her Holly wood home by Ian Army major in n truck" and came as a surprise to her.
 She understood, she said that an- other dog had been sent from Eng land by nir to Washington.
 In Washington, War Depart ment spokesman confirmed that on Jan. 9 In Memphis, three servicemen had been bumped off an Army cargo plane to make room for BOO pounds of additional cargo. The dog re- mained aboard he said, but de- clined to comment on whether the animal was consigned to Col. and Mrs. Roosevelt.
 The spokesman pointed out that the three hitch-hiklng servicemen were riding on the plane because the Army wanted to do them "a favor" At Memphis, he said, 300 pounds had to be removed from the plane to make room for high priority cargo The dog and hIs crate didn't weigh that much, he said, so the three men were set down.

 Sixth Army troops also made further progress on the eastern flank despite sharp resistance from Well-entrenched Japanese troops, One force drove to within 6 half mile of Rosario, Ave miles Inland from Damortis and 14 miles south west of the summer capital of Bagulo.
 Another cut the main central plains north-south highway at Bobonan, eight miles south of Ros- ario, and third rammed Into Pozorrubio, enemy strong point nine miles east of San Fabian.
 Once the JapaneGe attack routes on the eastern flank have been seSrreCi...and that appeared likely within matter of hollrs--the Am- orleans above Tarlac were expected to resume their southward march towar Manila.
 Tarlac, Q provincial capital, road hub and town of i7,000 should prove an easy nut to crack and reconnaissance reports indicated the Americans would meet no formidable resistance north of the Clark field air center, If indeed above Manila itself.
 American planes striking ahead of the troops raked enemy inotoE columns and road installations on the Central Plains and south of Manila. A number of locomotives and freight cars, 50 trucks and three tanks were destroyed.
 Liberators bombed enemy supply and Bivouac Installations at Fort Statsenburg, 2l mile s south of Tarlac, starting fires. Medium and attack bombers concentrated on Clark and Cagayan Valley airfields and destroyed 6i enemy planes or the ground. The lone enemy fighter found in the air was shot down.
 Career planes joined in the as- sault and in strailng sweeps dam- aged four enemy freighters of SC tons each north of the Lingayer Gulf, while light Naval patrol unit sank four enemy barges near Vigar on the northwest coast of Luzon.

 Churchill laShed out violently at Greek Communists, charging them with plotting to establish Q totali- tarian state. He remained totally lntransigent toward Greek leftists and proclaimed his complete faith In the policy followed by his gov ernment in Greece
 His defense of Brltain's conduct in Greece was expected to precipi- tate a bitter debate by labor mem- bers. Churchill appeared to be de- liberately batting his critics.
 Churchill said he was "the earl- fest outside supporter of Marshal Tito in Yugoslavia and earnestly hoped he would prove the savior and unitler of his country, as he Is at this time It's undlsputed master"
 Tn Greece, he said, Britain's pol icy has been to support or estab- lish the most coherent and sub- stantial government machine that could be found to deliver available food, maintain tolerable conditions Of law and order and hold elections at the earliest possible moment.

was being intensified steadily after 24 hours of slow, hard going during which fog, sleet and stiffening en- emy resistance had ground the at- tack almost to standstill.
 RAF Mosquito bombers went to the aid of their ground forces dur- ing the night, raking a cluster ot villages in the German rear With bombs and gunfire in Q 14-hour bcmbardment that lasted from sun down to dawn
 The British night raiders hit Erk- elenz Wegberg, Heinsberg and Wedder- -Krutchten lying in a To- to-20 mile arc east and northeast of Sittard. Fires started in Veg berg ragged for three hours aflG heavy explosions, apparently from German ammunition dumps, rocked the village.
 Meanwhile, the battle Of the Ar- dennes appeared to have settled down to a close-in slugging match, with the Germans throwing in re- peated tank and infantry counter attacks all around their reduced salient in an effort to retain theiT precarlous foothold on the moun- tain ridge extending through St. With from the northeast to the southwest.
 The biggest and most menacing American gains were scored on the U. s. First Army's front below Nal medy. where the 30th Infantry Di- vision advanced 1000 to 2,000 yards In the area east of Recht, rushing their forward clements to within five miles north. northeast of St. With. Spearheads of the First The fantry Division also were less than five miles due north of St. With in the sector below Taymonville, meet- ing stiff opposition from German tank and infantry forces
 Directly west of St. With, the American 18th Infantry occupied Vielsalm, which the Germans had abandoned, and pushed on beyond the town to within about eight miles of St. With.
 German armored and infantry units, however, were counter-attack- ing sharply around Courtil, 5 l. 2 miles south of Vielsalm, in an effort to hold back the S3rd Infantry Di- vision pushing Up the Houffalize- St. With highway. At last reports the 83rd was grinding forward slow ly against fierce opposition.
 Two miles farther to the south west, clements of the First Army'i Second Armored Division joined ur with the Third Arrnys Third Arm- ored Division in frontal assault on German defenses east of Sterpigny and made slight progress In tbe face of enemy counter -thrusts.
 On the southwestern flank of their shrinking pocket, the IGerman' threw 36 tanks and strong infantry forces into three savage counter attacks against the 00th Infantry'l lines in the Obcrwampach area, { l-2 miles east Of Bastogne. The doughboys knocked out at least 1t tanks and killed 260 Germans with out yielding any of their hard-wor ground.
