S. Congress WASHINGTON. Dec.‘ l3—(AP)—- Congress rang with loud and ang- IY debate over criticism of Britain and Russia‘ today, with Govem- merit supporters accusing the crit- ics ol ‘fcareless talk" which might Drolonk the war. On the House of Representatives side a razor-edged exchange was touched of! by a Pennsylvania Coriilressmans attack on Prime Minister Churchill and British draft policies. Mr. Churchill, declared Repres- entative Leon Gavin (Rep-Pa), "seems content to let us throw thousands of our boys into notion to carry on the fight, hundreds of whom are liquidated every day." Up leaped Representative Luther A. Johnson. lkxas Democrat. shouting "the gentleman has ren- dered a disservice to his country and to the Allies." Statements like Mr. Gavin's "should be suppressed," Mr. John- son declared. adding that “they are calculated to promote disunity, ‘prolong (he war and encourage Hitler." At one point.

It is even more ominous than that presented by the Rcrl Anny’: strong siege position before the doomed Hungarian capital which is com- plete from the west bank of the Danube below the city to its cast bank above. North of Budapest and above the great bend of the Danube, the Russians hove driven a broad corridor virtually to Czechoslovakia. They have gained n. substantial footing in the valley of the Ipoly River that flows westward to enter the Danube at the western end of the gorge- like canyon through the Danube passed before it bends sharply south- ward to reach Bud/finest. That canyon and the Borzsony Mountain mass north of it form strong natural barriers to any Russian direct advance on Vienna up ilic Danube, by-passing Budapest. However, the Russians seem in a. posi- tlon to sweep north around the Mountains and pour down into the great plain north of the Danube b ‘ Budapest and Vienna. Whether that is'the Bus plan remains to be seen. The Red grip on the volley of the Ipoly is a threat to German- Ilungnrian forces still clinging to the mountains of northeastern ilun- gary south of the Slovakian border. Red forces are expanding eastward up the Ipoly as wcll as westward. Another Russian spearhead is driving ncrthwcstvviirrl above captured Miskolc up the Sujo and Rimu valleys.
