Gen. Pattons most spectacular
gains, however, were well south OF
Pruem. His armor and foot troops
pushed q dozen or more miles into
the Reich in the area at the extreme
north tip Of the rich Saar district,

and the imminent peril to the Ruhr.
His troops were well in the Hoch-

front began. The 7th has crossed
the Saars below Saarbrueckens at
at least two places.

Committee 10 Seek
Restoration Of Cut
In Welfare Funds

Restoration of the 10 per cent cut
IN public assistance grants to needy
families will be sought by special
committee representing the Board
Of Public Welfarce, the Council Of
Social Agencies, the Community
War Fund and the Community
Chest.
The decision to uphold the vel
fare boards recommendation to the
District Commissioners for removal
OF the 10 per cent cut was reached
ut meeting called yesterday to re-
solve differences between private
and public welfare budgets and
standards at the board room of the
Hamilton National Bank.
Common Standard Sought.
The committee also agreed to in
struct both public and private wei
fare services to present data to the
committee on requirements of q
budget which would provide the
necessities for maintenance of de-
cency and health, as well as supple
mental requirements for rehabilita-
ton. Later, the board will recon-
vene to establish a common stand
ard
Discussing the 10 per cent cut,
Ray l.. HUFF, Welfare Board direc-
tor, said that "the budget now being
used by the public agency is not
high, and 1t may be considered low,
SO that any cut from it is not indi-
Gated"
There may be a reason for some
difference in the needs of families
served by private as distinguished
from public agencies because pri-
vate assistance is usually given
over a shorter period of time, he
pointed out. He added, however,
that the needs for decency and
health in both cases are probably
the same.
Rev. Rustin Presides.
As an example of the difference
In grants made by public and pri-
vate agencies Mr.. Huff said the
budget guide used by the private
services for family of four is s123
as opposed to S98 allotted by public
agency The greatest difference is
to be found in items of clothing and
food, he added.
The Rev. John w. Rustin, presi-
dent of the Washington Federation
of Churches and committee head,
presided at the meeting. Other COM
nlittee members attending included:

STRAND

Listeners have long marveled at Larry Adler's ability to draw from harmonica tones reminiscent of many instruments in a symphony orchestra. On the set of M-G-M's Music for Millions," in which he Is featured with Margaret O'Brien. Jose Iturbi and Jimmy Durante at the Strand theater, the harmonica virtuoSo explained his technique.
 To acieve trumpet effect, he stands three feet behind the micro- phone. opens his hands on the har- monica and blows a sharp, brassy, tone; for the "wah-wah" muted trumpet sound he stands closer to the mike, opening and closing his hands slowly; a violin tone is achieved by fluttering the hands fast and playing into the mike from distance of ten or twelve inches; cello tone comes from blowing softly through the first three holds of the harmonica, about six inches away; an oboe effect can be in- duced by vibrating the tongue ra- pidly.
 Now you know how the wizard of the harmonica does it-just try it.
 A March of Time and Selected short subjects complete the bill.

Despite almost insuperable material difficulties, the styles shown by this creator featured the same wealth of details and fine handiwork, al- though the fabrics themselves were definitely not comparable to pre- war standards. The general trend shows little change in silhouette, novelty residing in details rather than in new lines.
 Afternoon costumes show hips still accented, with full skirts gath cred at the waistline. Many are circular cut, with fullness main tained by pleaded godets with the accept on back pleats. Much em- phasis is placed at the tops, with generous fullness in bodices. which are slightly bloused in back in for maj dresses, while simpler models shows plain tailored fronts.
 USE BOLD COLORS
 Maggy Rouff features modernized elbow-length leg O mutton sleeves, often of intricately worked patterns, tiny pleats and scanning, both on formal afternoon dresses and coast. Maggy RoufT also launches the three-quarters sleeve with enormous gauntlet cuffs, often in contrasting fabric and color.
 Ensembles alternate between full length fiared redingotes over match ing or contrasting dresses with matching lining and straight. un- fitted. unbelted box jackets. Shoul- ders al through the collection show c built out, rounded line. Suits have wrist length. man-tailored jackets with nipped-in waists and fewer pockets than last season Skirts have slender kick pleats or twin box pleats at back and front.
 Many pastel and bold-colored plaids are used both in dresses and coats. but usually in the form of plaid dresses and solid-colored full- length coast. Daytimers replace black with navy, greys, yellows. warm browns, beige and greige. Many prints are used. mainly with light grounds featuring all-over allpaper designs or small motifs.
