Rabaut To Make His Bid For Judgeship WASHINGTON, Jan. 9-(U)-Stat- ing that "I think it's time the Demo- cratic party rewarded a winner in- stead of someone who tried and didn't make .it," Rep. Rabaut (D.- Mich.) today announced his candi- dacy to the judgeship of the Federal District court, Detroit, left vacant by the death of Judge Arthur J. Tut- tle. Rabaut referred to the recent un- successful candidacy of Arthur Kos- cinski for Michigan Secretary of State. Koscinski, supported by the Polish Democratic members of the Wayne County Delegation, is now a candidate for the judgeship. Rep. Hook,. Ironwood Democrat, said that while he would not actively back any candidate because he was not from Wayne county, he believed "They couldn't make a better choice than Koscinski." It is traditional that President Roosevelt defer to the wishes of the state's Democratic congressmen and national committeemen in appoint- ing a new judge, though his choice is [subject to Senate confirmation.

I M 4 E (i E t THIS COMES STRAIGHT 'It Wasr By KENNETH L. DIXON IN GERMANY, Jan. 7-(Delayed) -(P)-This is an account of combat, straight from the combat soldier. It's the sort of thing you hear scores of times as boys come out of this or that bloody fight. Lt. Jack Melton of Dallas, Tex., was in the Hurtgen Forest fight. His face was bearded and haggard. This is what that tall, gangling, Company I Texas had to say after the battle was won-when he was asked what it was like: "It ,was tougher than the Nor- mandy hedgerow fighting.
