ins the prestige he won in North

ccess of the Normandy invasion.
G. Ward Price, Sunday Dispatch

3m the Western Front, declared
at the setback “should pring
tout changes, which before it oc
rred, were already known to be
I 'cessary by those on the inside
Allied strategy."
“Eisenhower,” he said, “is gen
nely popular with all his subordi
ite commanders, but his respon
bilities are too depressed and
i ide-spread for him to direct op
[ 'ations of seven armies under his
■ders with the necessary detailed
lowledge of the situation of each.
Price recalled that during the
' ormandy campaign when things
ent well, Montgomery was stra
gic commander in chief in tne
eld, exercising powers conferred
" ?on him by Eisenhower, whose
sadquarters then were in Eng

Since September, when Eisenhow

has been but one of the army

Those inside, Price said, have

lat one authority told him, “if
lontgomery's advance into Nij
Iiegen had bi.en backed by 10

Supreme Allied headquarters was

There seems to be no question

regards to its size and scope. He
was aided by a period of heavy

What Is Wrong
When Prayer Failsl
Thirty years ago, in Forbidden
Tibet, behind the highest moun
tains in the world, a young Eng
lishman named Edwin J. Dingle
found the answer to this question.
A great mystic opened his eyes.
He realized the strange Power that
Knowledge gives.
That Power, he says, can trans
form the life of anyone. Questions,
whatever they are, can be answer
ed. The problems of health, death,
poverty and wrong, can be solved.
In his own case, he was brought
back to splendid health. He acquir
ed wealth, too, as well as world
wide professional recognition.
Thirty years ago, he was sick as
a man could be and live. Once
his coffin was bought. Years of
almost continuous tropical fevers,
broken bones, near blindness, pri
vation and danger had made a
human wreck of him, physically
and mentally.
He was about to be sent back to
England to die, when a strange
message came—“They are wait
ing for you in Tibet.” He waqts
to tell whole world what he leariv
ed there, under the guidance o:
L . ...
the greatest mystic he ever en
countered during his twenty-one
years in the Far East. He wants
everyone to experience the greater
health and the Power, which there
came to him.
Within ten years, he was able
to retire to this country with a
fortune. He had been honored by
fellowships in the World’s leading
geographical societies, for his
work as a geographer. And today,
30 years later, he is still so ath
letic, capable of so much work,
so young in appearance, it is h»fd
to believe he has lived so long.
As a first step in their progress
toward the Power that Knowledgs
gives, Mr. Dingle wants to send to
readers of this paper a 9000-word
treatise. He says the time hat
come for it to be released to the
Western World, and offers to send
it, free of cost or obligation, to
sincere readers of this notice. For

NAZIS LAUNCH DRIVE
ON BASTOGNE ROUTE
(Continued from Page One)
seven of armor, have been “badly
mauled, the broadcasts added. )
Using six divisions, Lt. Gen.
George S. Patton’s Third army still
was h ammering relentlessly
against the southern side of the
salient, w-idening its front from 35
to 40 miles and sending one spear
head to a point five miles north
west of relieved Bastogne, front
dispatches said.
This advance according to United
Press Correspondent Robert Rich
ards narrowed to 12 miles the gap
between the Third army and First
army troops attacking the Ger
mans' northern flank. Allied head
quarters, however, stated that the
kap was “now” — presumably
Saturday—16 miles wide and said
that reports of a 12-mile width
which it ascribed to the BBC were
"erroneous.”
Widen Strip
Before the Germans struck back
against the Bastogne corridor,
Patton’s men had widened the strip
to nearly eight miles near its top
with the capture of Lutrebois, three
miles southeast of the city, and an
advance to the vicinity of Harlange
five miles southeast of Bastogne
just over the border in Luxem
Krti irff
A furious battle was raging mean
while at the edge of Rochefort,
to where Field Marshal Karl Gerd
von Rundstedt’s Panzers had been
pushed back 11 miles from the
high-water mark of their push. Loss
of the key crossroads might force
the Germans into headlong retire
ment from Belgium and they were
fighting savagely, supported by
tanks, self propelled guns and
multi-barreled mortars, to hold the
city.
Authorized quarters said the time
has come when von Rundstedt
must decide whether to renew his
main drive or attempt to pull out
his 20-odd divisions before they
become cut off or invite substan
tial losses in the course of their
retreat.
The situation had created con
siderable suspense here and a
spokesman remarked that “it's
somebody’s move.”
Von Rundstedt, provided he can
withdraw his forces sufficiently in
tact so that they could be used
for the defense of other sectors,
already has won a considerable
victory in disruption of the Allies’
own winter plans.
The Germans meanwhile had
launched a series of intense prob
ing actions along other sectors of
the meandering 450 mile front and
in one fairly strong assault at the
northern end of the Roer line in
the Rhineland had driven back into
Tripsrath, 11 miles due north of
Aachen. They had been dislodged
from all except the north corner
of the village at last reports.
The Germans were also hurling
Nebelwerfer rocket barrages across
the Roer and directing V-l and V-2
fire against Allied dispositions
farther to the rear.

TEBE D. SANFORD
DIES IN HOSPITAL
Tebe Dewitt Sanford, 52, who
previous to his retirement in 1938
had served Wilmington for 15 years
as a patrolman, sergeant and lieu
tenant of the city police, died
shortly before noon yesterday in
the Fayetteville Veterans’ hospital.
He had been ill 15 weeks.
A native of Rockingham, he came
to Wilmington in 1919 after his re
turn from France, where he had
served—and been wounded in ac
tion—as a master sergeant in a
Fifth division Army medical unit.
He enlisted in the Coast Guard
and served there two years, see

sergeantcy from Chief Joseph H.
Lane, in November. 1926, less than
three years after he had first as
sumed his badge.
A year and a half before his re
tirement, while serving at the
headquarters switchboard, he re
ceived his promotion to the grade
of lieutenant and became desk of
ficer. Increasingly ill health forced
his retirement late in 1938.
Chief Charles Casteen. who serv
ed with him as patrolman. ser
geant and lieutenant, summed up
the opinion of his associates and
acquaintances yesterday in calling
him a fearless and faithful offi
cer and a good friend.
He was a member of the Amer
ican Legion and the Veterans of
Foreign Wars.
Mr. Sanford is survived by his
widow, Mrs. Louise Sanford, of
605 S. Third street; a daughter.
Miss Menola Sanford, and one son,
Tebe D. Sanford. Jr., a prisoner
of-war in the hands of the Japa

4th Division Praised
For Saving Luxemboug
WITH THE U. S. THIRD ARMY
ON THE WESTERN FRONT. Dec.

Infantry division for saving Lux
embourg was expressed by Lt.Gen.
George S. Patton, Jr., in a letter
today to the division's commander
Maj. Gen. Raymond O. Barton of
Ada. Okla.
Patton's letter said in part:
“Your fight in the Hurtgen For
est was an epic of stark infantry
combat, but in my opinion your
most recent fight—frrom Dec. 16
to Dec. 26—when a tied division
you halted the left shoulder of tne
German thrust into the American
lines and saved the city of Luxem
bourg ... is the most outstanding
accomplishment of yourself and
your division."

OUGHT TO STOP
WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.—(ff)
Sen. Wiley (R-Wis) complained
today that people are picking

It ought to stop, he said.
In a statement the senator
asserted that “in these days
of momentous foreign relations
‘baiting the senate’ has become
a favorite indoor sport in cer
tain quarters.’’
Then he propounded a list of
16 questions — no answers—
about what’s behind it all, and
why the senate is being abused
and villified he said, on such
things as isolationism, the
League of Nations and foreign
policy in general.
“Let’s stop baiting the sen
ate,” he urged. “Let’s show
some confidence in it and in
America. Let’s maintain our
national legislative branch
strong and independent.”

INSURANCE RATING
BUREAU PLANNED
RALEIGH, Dec. 30.—(£>)-A bill
to amend the state’s general sta
tutes to create a state fire insur
ance rating bureau and to provide
for the regulation of casualty and
miscellaneous insurance rates has
been prepared for presentation to
the 1945 general assembly.
The measure follows closely the
recommendations made by a com
mission appointed by Governor
Broughton in mid-summer to make
an intensive study and recommen
dations of changes in the state’s
insurance laws.
The rating bureau would de
termine the price policyholders
would pay for insurance covering
losses by fire, lightning, wind
storm, explosion, direct damage
motor vehicle insurance, and ’’all
other kinds of insurance which
fire insurance companies are au
thorized to write in this state.
Exemptions from the rating
bureau would be those companies
writing inland marine insurancs
only, commercial aircraft risks,
and insurance covering rolling
stock of railroad corporations and
property of interstate common car
riers carrying freight, passengers
or merchandise, and reinsurance.
Under the suggested bill, casual
ty and miscellaneous insurance
companied operating in this state
would have to be members of a
rating bureau licensed by the state;
it provides for the licensing of
qualified rating bureaus for casual
ty and other insurance, and force
rating bureaus and insurance com
panies which make their own rafts
file rate manuals with the State
Insurance Commissioner.

ABOUT_YEAR
By The Associated Press
The great, the near-great and
the man in the street expressed
cautious optimism today in pre
dicting events to some in 1945—
a year sure to see bloody fight
ing, but one which might bring
victory and peace.
In London, Prime Minister
Churchill said the new year
"should bring victory in Europe,”
and added: "before many months
have passed the evil gang that has
long dominated that unhappy con
tinent will be wiped out.”
Russia's top-flight foreign com
mentator, Ilya Ehrenburg, said in
a broadcast: "We will finish off
the Germans this year x x x we
have suffered too much to sVp
short of Berlin.”
Concerning the war in the Pa
cific, Robert T. Patterson, under
secretary of war, declared: “I
have found nothing to support the
notion that we can dispose of
Japan in short order once Ger
many is finally beaten. We will
have to defeat them the hard
way.”
However, Vice Admiral Marc A.
Mitscher, who helped whip the
Japanese in two battles of the
Philippines sea, predicted from
Pearl Harbor that “in another
year we should have their navy
pretty well cleaned up; x x x by
next summer, they will be sitting
on a decidedly uneasy seat in the
empire.”
