Busch, president of the Eu gene group, reported Saturday. Dealers here are finding them selves flooded with an oversupply of hind-quarter meat on which point i-alues are so high that point-shy consumers cannot af ford to buy, Busch said. On the other hand, OPA's Jan. 1 ration schedule has placed points on frtmt-quarter meat so low, that dealers find it impossible to keep a supply on hand. Busch explained that normal difference in seasonal demand brings more call for front-quarter beef In the winter months, since stew, roast and boiling meat come from these sections.

S. 7th army five miles. Simultaneously, the British 2nd army merged its two drives from the Dutch flank of the erupting front into a seven-mile broad ad vance on the Rhineland with white-camouflaged tanks, stab bing three miles Into the reich and capturing Breberen only 21 miles from industrial Munchen Gladbach. Behind Its greatest barrage since the drive through Belfort gap, Gen. Jean de Lattre de Tas ligny's Frenchmen struck on a 25-mile front against the south ern side of the Colmar strip, which on Its northern fringe reaches within 10 miles of Stras bourg.

Marshal Karl Gerd von Hund stedt's strategy obviously was to split the American front between front-quarters sell out immediate ly.
