Nozis Began Bulge Gamble
Just 10 Years Ago Today

It was the start Of what the
Germans called operation
'Wacht am Rhein" Watch on
the Rhine )--soon dubbed by the
Allies "the Battle of the Bulge"
Within hours the German as
sault battalions had broken
through the American lines and
were headed for the river Meuse.
In Germany, people were seized
by a mixture of hope and fear.
Some hoped the offensive would
bring victory. Others feared the
agony Of war would only be pro-
longed by this new effort.
Reckless Adventure.
In the hindsight Of the 10
succeeding years, the Ardennes
offensive clearly stands out to
military historians here as one
of the most reckless adventures
ever undertaken.
The object was to separate
the British and American armies
by attacking across Belgium and
seizing the important harbor OF
Antwerp. That would cut the
British of from their supply
base and force a second Dun
kirk" Hitler believed.

by Killers plan. he told Allied
interrogators after the war.
I'VE had neither the men nor
the supplies for such an am
bilious plan." he said.
But the Fuehrer had his way
and the offensive was hastily
prepared.

into an assembly area in the
wooded Eifel Mountains between
Bitburg and Kronenburg.
Vivid Memories.
The people there still have
vivid memories Of that time. II
have never seen such a lot Of
tanks and soldiers" says Hans
Bosch, a farmer In the Pruem
area who lost two sons in the
war. .
when I saw all those soldiers
that morning asked them what
they were doing. A young officer
told me: We attack again
II only felt sorry for them.
They were SO young. as young as
my sons were when the Army

suddenly the German Army
was on its feet again. We
slapped each other on the back
and shouted:
"'Now they'll crush the enemy.
The Fuehrer has kept his
promise
There were even rumors OF
those miracle weapons that
Goebbels promised so often.
1--WE did not know that we
were badly mistaken"
Many Germans Worried.
But many Germans were hor-
rified when word of the offensive
reached them. They were the
people who had stayed behind
in Aachen. Monschau and other
border towns when the Ameri-
cans marched In. They had de-
fled a Nazi order to evacuate
their home towns.
Because they had been brand
ed traitors and saboteurs by the
Nazis, they had ample cause to
fear German recapture Of their
towns.
Hans Werner Koerver, an
Aachen innkeeper, tells of those
fear-filled days:
"On the morning of December

army met determined American
resistance around Monschau, on

Manteuffel took over the main

Foliage plants serve several
valuable purposes in q garden:
/. They give . cool appearances
which is particularly pleasing In
very warm weather.
2. They add q rich variation
in texture.
8. They harmonic strong coll
ors which might not blend so well
without the use Of green or gray
green foliage.
4. Many Of them can be set
out in pots during the summer
and then brought inside in the
fall to brighten the house, thus
serving dual purpose.
One Of the plants best known
to all gardeners is the coleus.
The variegated forms Of this
plant, have long been admired
by those who particularly like to
collect them in various patterns
and color combinations.
coIodiums for Shade
They are easily grown from
seed or cuttings. The one con-
sidered best for bedding and for
indoor use Is called "verschaf-
felti." It has leaves Of rich red
with green filed edges. Golden
Bedder has long been the best
yellow. Her Majesty has bronze
red leaves with orange edging,
Salvador with green edged rose
and maroon leaves. Brilliancy
like Her Majesty but even richer
looking, and Sun Ray with leaves
Of reddish purple, yellow and
bronze are some of the other
coleuS available.
Caladiums are somewhat sim
liar in that they are used indoors
and out. They may be used only
in shade, however. For summer

There are other plants which
add this same fairlylike touch to
a border. I'd like to name one
more. The caryopteris incana
or 'blue-Spirea" bears lovely
blue flowers. but the gray feath-
cry foliage adds almost as much
to the border as a strictly foliage
plant.

the time to divide them for they
have generally finished bloom
ing. Plant them in SemiShade.
If your wiStaria has failed to
bloom, root-prune it. They are
usually so rank in growth that
they require severe pruning dur

may ruin nearby trees and

prune q wiStaria to q well-shaped
