PAGE FOUR RESERVES MAY TORN GERMANS GeriuaM Score Gains In Europe; l; lubtlW' Attack May Gain The German offensive against the U. S. Fust Array has scored impressive gains and inflicted heavy losses upon American troops. The long-range signifi¬ cance of the attack, however, depends upon the reserves General Eisenhower has in the rear areas to meet the . While only a few persons, and those in high places know what reserve strength the merican commander has, it is hardly possible that he has de- ployed the entire American Army, on the front from Aachen to Switzerland, without a reserve in the rear. The apprehension that the Germans, in their present coun- ter-offensive, might repeat the success that they scored a- gains, the? ’arg^ French Army in the early days of the war is naturla, but it should be re- membered that the disaster which overcame • the French was largely due to the fatal strategy of General Gamelin who placed his entire army a- long the front line. When the Gemian mechan- ized units broke through the French frontier positions, there were no reserves available to organize an effective counter- blow. Consequently, the Nazi mechanized units swept to the coast, cutting the Allied Army in half, isolating segments which could be attacked and destroyed. of The immediate problem the German commander is to keep his offensive rolling. This is dependent largely upon his fuel supply. It also depends on the speed of the Allied High Command in assembling re¬ serves and the power that can be thrown into the path of the German advance. There seems to be no doubt o the fact that the Allied com¬ manders were aware that Mar¬ shal von Rundstedt had been collecting a panzer army in the plain of Cologne. Consequent¬ ly, it is a safe assumption that, unless they were inexcusibly over-confident, adequate re¬ serves were assembled to meet the concentration of enemy ar¬ mor, either by exploiting an of¬ fensive success or by stemming a defensive setback. The reader should understand that the Germans selected the area south of Aachen for arm¬ ored warfare because the land is higher and the ground firm enough to enable mechanized units to advance. North of Ach- en and in Holland generally large-scale armored warfare is impossible and, except when a long frost hardens the ground, tanks cannot leave highways without sinking up to their middles in mud. The outcome of-the German attack cannot be forseen or ac- curately predicted. We should not overlook, however, that General Eisenhower has quate reserve srenah, he will have an opporfhmi»y, at the proper time, to deliver a erous blow to strungout Ger- man forres The reader should remembeh the German counter-attack at Avranches which failed to e- centuaity 1 led to tire destruction of , , large German lorce he a m Falaise pocket. This opened the way for the rapid advance a- cross France and Belgium and, if events underway develop favorably, a similar victory could result from a failure on the part of the Gennans to score clean breakthrough. It is too early to conclude, as some experts do, that the Ger¬ man offensive has "already ATTENTION FARMERS Paints - Roofing - Bridles - Check Lines - Cement - Farm Tools * * * # Chattanooga Hardware Company TIMES: TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURS DAY, JANUARY IT, 1945.

S. Senator Walter F. George proudly took away with him an honorary L. L. D. degree from the university. Georgia's senior senator also accepted a similar degree tor former Secretary of State Cor¬ dell Hull, who was prevented from attending the exercises be¬ cause of illness. . . . Speaking of celebrities visiting Georgia, /resident Roosevelt was back in Washington before the gen¬ eral public (and enemy agents) knew that he spent a three weeks' vacation at Warm Springs. Despite a heavy rou¬ tine—he signed more than 75 bills and vetoed a few—-he en- oyed much rest and relaxation, nil of the executive actions at Warm Springs were announced at the White House in Washing¬ ton, thus helping to keep his absence a state secret ... In .ase you had any doubt about it, Georgia now is on record as officially voting the Roosevelt- Truman ticket. Georgia's presi¬ dential electors convened at the State Capitol last week and cast twelve voets for the Demo¬ cratic Party's nominees, who won in a landslide in the Nov. 7 election. In case you have forgotten, the vote in Georgia was 268,187 for the Democrats, 56,506 for the Republicans and 3,418 for the Independent Demo¬ crats . . . President Earl Mann, of the Atlanta Crackers, is a much happier man today than he was a month ago. The play¬ er deals that he and Manager Ki Ki Cuyler started during the recent eastern baseball meeting are beginning to materialize. A- bout all Atlanta needs to start the 1945 season are two play-- ers, a second baseman and an outfielder. Not bad! .... New president of the Georgia Asso¬ ciation of Colleges is Irvin S. Ingram,"head of Wset Georgia College.
