Correspondent Tells Os Trip Info East Germany
(Editor'* note: A trip deep into East Germany on the occasion of the annual Leipslg state fair enabled Joseph H. Singer, Berlin bureau manager for International News Service, to take a good, long look ’ at what life I? like on the other—Communist — side of the Iron Curtain in Germany. The following article is the first of three in which Singer tells what he «aw and heard.) By JOSEPH H. SINGER LEIPZIG, East Germany (INS) — “I’d rather be a prisoner in America than be living here in East Germany.” Those words carefully whispered into your ear, jolt yon. You’re an American. You're, standing on a Street corner in LeipsiC, deep in the heart of Communist East Germany. Thousands of foreigners are bustling about this dreary gray city. It's “Leipsig Fair” time, the yearly big propaganda industrial fair the Communists stage to lure western businessmen. Once yearly, during fair time, foreigners can enter the Red reich and feel the true atmosphere of Communism. Unlike the Soviet Union. here you can talk quite freely to the people. In fact they insist on telling you how* horrible life is under Communism. » East Germans take to you like a father confessor. Why? You listen to one of them. He’s a dark-haired fellow in his middle thirties. Hia thin trenchcoat is belted tightly around hie thread-' bare suit At first you suspect he is a secret policeman trying to bait you.
But you change your mind as he goes on: “I was a prisoner of war in America in 1945. Its a good try. I want to go back.” Still not believing him, you ask him where he was kept in the United States. “Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. Camp Hill, Colorado, and in Nebraska.” He speaks English because the crowd of other East Germans standing around probably has at least two or three informers listening for just such conversations. His English is slow but understandable. He says he learned it while in the U. S. “It's good to be able to say these things,” he tells you with a sigh of relief that comes from the tips of his toes. We can’t say what we think to another German. We can’t trust our neighbors anymore. Here if you criticise the government, tomorrow, flick! You disappear. It's horrible how we have sunken to hate and distrust everyone else.” He goes on saying that since you ate American, he knows he can trust you. So he gets "it” off his chest. Despite all the whitewash put up for the fair, you can easily seei through the false fronts. Stores apparently with full windows are beseiged with East Germans buying, buying, buying what normally is seldom seen in East Germany. A middle-aged honsewife tells you: “Sure, all this looks good to foreigners. But the day the fair ends, there will be nothing more left for us. We have to wait for the next

fair to get these things.** Fur this reason, Leipaig reeldents were happy to hear that the Red government Intends to hold two fairs a year, as was done before the war. This means they will be able to stock up on scares items, mostly essential foods, twice a year instead of just onoe. (Next — “Don’t trust the (Russians!’’)« Girl Is Home Aller < ■ : • Suffering Amnesia Mishawaka School Girl Brought Home MISHAWAKA, Ind.

He could not have been in contempt in the 1952 inquiry because it was invalid and also because the subcommittee then headed by Sen. Thomas C. Hennings (D-Mo.i asked him only once to testify and he did not receive che request until after he was supposed to have appealed. 2. Zwicker was "one of the most arrogant, evasive, irritating” witnesses ever to appear before .McCarthy's senate investigations subcommittee and the chairman therefore was merely using every avenue of cross-examination to get answers out of the general. , Among the witnesses at the Watkins group’s hearings were Zwicker, who hss been assigned to the Far East, and Sen. Carl Hayden (D-Ariz.) who headed the senate rules committee when its elections subcommittee under Hennings conducted the 1952 investigation. Williams maintained that the inquiry was illegal, since three of the five members of the subcommittee resigned and it was reconstituted as a three-member group, when Hayden — without committee or senate approval — appointed himself to It. Hayden said he was within his rights. His view was supported by senate parliamentarian Charles L. Watkins. In exonerating McCarthy on the charge pertaining to requests for evidence of wrong-doing from federal workers, the committee maintained that the ewutlve branch has no right to withhold such Information from congressional committees. -, Jt recommended (hat the administrative clarify executive orders dealing with this and proposed new rules for senate Investigative group.,.
