AMERICAN (Continued from Page One) going for live-firing training on West German ranges. Another Refugee Killed The U.S. Army sent the convoys through East Germany to West I Berlin, located 110 miles inside! Communist territory, at a time' when tensions were high in the city because of the Communist, slaying of another young refugee I trying to reach the West from East Berlin. West Berlin police feared the slaying Thursday night of Hans . Dieter Wesa, 19, might trigger new riots by West Berliners in protest against the Communistbuilt anti-refugee wall. West Berlin police said they' ’ were “absolutely certain” that ’ Wesa, a transport policeman, was in Western territory when he was [ cut down by Communist border t guards. ; The Soviet escort threat! was raised by a Soviet colonel at s Checkpoint Charlie, at the Friede richstrasse crossing between East and West Berlin. When the Americans insisted that three armored cars commanded by the colonel have an ( American escort in West Berlin, the Soviet officer warned that , every American vehicle entering East Berlin or on the autobahn t would be escorted. Squeeze on Allied Rights Wesa was the second border i victim of Communist bullets dur- ■ ing the past week in which tensions have been high because of the shootings and the Soviet squeeze on the Western Allied rights in the divided city. The shooting of an 18-year-old East German construction worker last Friday triggered three days of riots in West Berlin. West Berliners stoned Soviet vehicles, clashed with their own police and jeered U.S. soldiers because they did not go to the aid of the victim. Western officials feared the kill-1 ing of Wesa might set off new demonstrations along the Commu-nist-built wall that divides Berlin.
