SIMPSON (Associated Press War Analyst) Surprise lolaure by tho American 3rd Army of the Saarlautsn Bridge giving direct access to the Saar Basin puts the German com- mand In a dilemma. The Germans must either rush armor and first line troop reserves to seal oil’ the river puncture by quick counter-attack in force, or risk loss of the Saar moat on a wide front to expose the Siegfried Line to broad-based American attack. There were hints in front llns reports from the Saar sector that. enemy armor was being thrown in to limit Third Army exploitation of the Saarlauten break-through. By every sign it could ill be spared from rhe Roar-Mensa: areas to the north where the British 2nd and the Am- erican 1st and 9th Armies are on the verge of brcaking- into the Col- ogne plain. - . Front-line observer: estimate that the Germans have massed most of their armor and at least ‘one-third of some ‘l0 under-strength field divisions behind the Roer and the Meuse to protect the Ruhr. That still is the potential scene of the most critical battle for the foe. There is indicated German Intention to make a last-ditch stand In the north, sacrificing the outer defences of the Saar Basin beyond German frontiers for that reason. The American surprise puncture o! the Saar gravely threatens to disrupt that plan, however. The fury of German artillery reaction to tho Saarlauten Bridge seizure disclosed enemy anxiety over the A ' success. _ The diversionary effect oi that 3rd Army jump upon the greater battle in the north, however. is apt tn prove more important than its immediate threat to Saar Basin centres. If the east bank foothold can he held and quickly expanded it could prove the break that Gen. Eisenhower ls walling for to throw in his own reserves in the north lf if. forces shifting of considerable German reserves southward to meet. the 3rd Army threat. r --»--~ .-- .
