SHORTAGES
DELAY
AUTO TAGS

Because of the failure of steeI
suppliers to supply steel on sche
dule, motor vehicle owners who
have ordered their license plates
through the mails may be delay
ed in receiving them.
This was the situation as view
ed yesterday by Chief Commits
sioner Claude r. Mcmillan of the
S. C. highway department, who
said that he had been notified by
the license manufacturing plant
of the state penitentiary that it
had been able to get steel neces
sary to manufacture only about
one-half of the $4,000 or more
plates needed for the new issue
The highway department placed
it's order for the 1851 supply OF
licenses with the penitentiary
last February.
So far the motor vehicle divi'
sion has been using all the plates
it received from the penitentiary
plant in filling window orders. 1t
has also been able to fill all ord
ers for trucks carrying "H'
plates by re-processing plates
left over from issues of former
years. 1t has not filled any mai
orders, of which it has received
about $4,000 to date, excepting
for truck plates. The supply fol-
window sales is expected to be
exhausted within the next sew
eral days.
So, if you haven't received
your plates, or don't receive them
within the next several weeks
don't be alarmed. In order to be
ready to mail the plates lmmedi
ately upon their delivery by the
penitentiary plant, the depart
ment is processing each applica
ton as it is received and laying
it aside. There are so many appll
cations in this huge suspense file
however, it is near impossible tt
search through it and find one
of a particular motorist.
AS in past years, persons order
ing their plates before October
81 will not be required to pay
the penalty even if the highway
department is delayed in filling
the order.

lysis, the enemy was in no posi-
ton to counterattack; unfortun'
ately, however, this brief lull in
operations gave the German
forces an opportunity to recuper.
ate. BY the time Third Army was
able to resume operations, it en-
countered a revitalized German
force under orders from Hitler
to stand and hold"
The operations that followed
the punch and probe" technique.
Villages and fortresses in the
path of advance had to be as
saulted with frontal and bludg-
coming tactics that slowed move
ment down to an infantry pace"
Snow, rain, cold, fog, overcast.
and mud conspired to hamper the
American advance, which some
times seemed unbearably slow
to those who took part. Directly
in the path of Third Army also
lay the redoubtable fortress of
Metz, the Maginot Line, and the
Siegfried Line, and an enemy
whose tenacity increased with
each American advance on Ger
man soil.
By the time the campaign end
ed on December 18th, Third Army
had wrested from the enemy
5000 square miles of territory
and denied the Germans the use
of the Saar industrial region. AL
though the campaign lacked the
dash and brilliant successes OF
earlier Third Army operations
it gained a new reputation for
Patton's Army. It's ability to
fight foot-slogging battle:
punch it's way across heavily de-
Tended river lines, and to fight
pitched tank battles was to stand
Third Army in good stead when
it interviewed in the Ardennes.
Major roles during the cam
paign were played by the Attn:
9Th, 9TH, 10th, and 18th Armored
Divisions and the 5th, 18th, Both,
10Th, eOth, s7th, Goth, and 95th
Infantry Divisions.
