!r the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
THE American First army's
drive into the Siegfried line
defenses north of Aachen is the
hot spot of the war news as this
is written.
Dispatches from the front say
it has broken through the FIRST
HEAVY CRUST of westwall for
tifications and fought its way four
miles forward from the jump-off
point.
(In this kind of fighting, four
miles is a pretty good gain.)
IOTE the reference to the "first
heavy crust." The Siegfried
(uvstwall) line isn't j"t one
solid wall. The modern idea is
"defense in depth," which means
that when one line is broken
through another (probably not
so strong) is encountered.
An enemy defense line isn't
successfully passed until we have
BROKEN CLEAR THROUGH all
these successive defenses. (We
had already dented the line south
of Aachen and will probably try
to join these bulges and sur
round the city.)
THE British are reported to be
massing infantry at the tip
of the Nijmegen corridor for a
heavy blow south of Arnhem. The
German lines here have been
heavily bombed, which is apt to
he a prelude to a ground attack.
THE week's most dramatic news
is the announcement by Gen
eral Bor (Tadeusz Komorowski)
that Poles in Warsaw have ceased
all resistance some of them
surrendering and some fighting
their way across the Vistula to
