V I lIH K B 0 I 1 D 8 SIXTY-EIGHTH YEAR No. 4 ( S essional HAPPENINGS IN WASHINGTON By CLARENCE J, BROWN Member of Congress' Americans For America — America For Americans mmmmi BUY MORE WAR BONDS CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22,1944 PRICE, ?1.50 A YEAR 36 $ The war in Europe has not been progressing any too well o f late. Orig­ inally, when the break-through'in •*Normandy first came, American strat­ egists were confidently expecting the conflict to end during the first half o f October. Then, when a lull came in the fighting and the Allied armies were marking time during September and October, predictions were being freely made Germany would be out of the war before the end of the year. In . fact, General George Marshall, Chief o f Staff o f the Army, in an article . written in October for publication on the anniversary o f Pearl Harbor, De­ cember 7th, strongly indicated he ex­ pected, the war in Europe to be over by the time his. article appeared in print. However, when ,the drive a- . gainst the German west' wait began the middle o f November, our armies | found the going exceptionally difficult j with the enemy fighting fanatically, j A careful study of any large European I war map will show Allied gains iduring> the past month of bitter fighting have1 been exceptionally small; but our cas-j ualties have been very, very heavy. A : study of the same map'and the loca- > tion o f various Allied armies will dis- ! close the American forces have been 1 doing most o f the fighting. Canadian,' Australian and New Zealand soldiers 1 make up the bulk o f the British army j on the northern end o f the battle line.1 Complaints are also being received -, here o f a shortage of munition^ and other battle supplies for our fighting forces. As a result o f all these condi­ tions the criticism of high government officials, from the Commandcr-in- Chief down, which has been ram­ pant in Congressional cloakrooms for ‘the past several weeks, is ncw/break- ing out in the open on the Floor of the House and Senate. While it is still hoped victory may come in Europe ' within the next few weeks, most Wash ington officials now expect the con­ flict to continue on until some time heyt spring or summer.

ChUatmao Ernest D. Beatty Heads Red Cross Drive Administration leaders are talking but little about* the Four Freedoms these' days. Recent developments in the liberated countries of Europe are quite discouraging to most Americans, but also most enlightening.

For a time, following the statement on the Situation issued by Edward Stettinius, the new Secretary o f State, American lovers o f human freedom and self de­ termination . believed this country Would take a strong stand for the right o f all liberated peoples to select their own form of government and their own political leaders. Then from Great Britain, came the astounding news that months ago, in a secret meeting, without the knowledge of the people o f America or of the world, President Roosevelt had _joined with the other leaders of the United Na­ tions in agreeing to the establishment o f “ spheres of influence," by our Al­ lies in the liberated countries of Eu­ rope.
