In revealing his intention to
run Westendorf went contrary
to the statement he had issued

attributed his change in plans to
the pressure of acquaintance
and groups who, he said, insist
ed that with the war going on
it's up to you TO be a good SOL
der and carry on on the home
front.
The mayor, native of the
city and proprietor of the drug
firm which bears his name. has

election as sheriff of Macomb

Terror Grips
Doomed Berlin
Fugitive Says
Nozi Deserters
Stream Into
Ruined City
BY JERJE FRANBERG
By the Associated Press

STOCKHOLM. Feb. % - (P)
i have just left Berlin, city of
the doomed, where the fateful
arrival of German Army desert
ers helped spread creeping pa
ralysis among the capitals five
and "a half million barricaded,
beWildered and bomb dulled in
habitants. I got away to Sweden
in an automobile which no
amount Of money in the world
could buy, but two old suits,
ties, some socks and two pounds
of coffee turned the trick.
AS the front moved closer and
closer to Berlin more and more
deserters slipped into the cap
ital. One forenoon by chance l
heard desperate mother con-
fide in another woman that her
son and 81 comrades had arriv-
ed in Berlin from the front as
deserters. Frantically she asked
advice: Should she hide her
son? But how? What should she
do? She certainly couldn't report
him as a deserter.
SEVERE PENALTIES
Believing it to be an isolated
case ! didn't give the matter
much thought, but the same day
Nazi spokesman urged the
population to report all desert
ers Immediately. The Severest
punishment was threatened for
anyone hiding them. Even
street cars and trains. he warn
ed. would be searched.
Berlin's fall may not come as
fast as most persons seem to be-
lieve, presuming the Russians
are ready TO concentrate their
whole strength against the ruins
of Berlin instead of cutting off
the city with part of their fore
es and using the rest for other
strategic aims, it certainly will
be question Of weeks before
. they have forced the German
defense back as far as the city
proper. The first backbone Of
very strong reserves is massed
behind the Oder, and these for
tifications must be broken.
Then the Russians face the
Berlin suburbs and the city it
self with tens Of thousands Of
barricades, mines and ruins
transformed into fortresses. As
far as the city stretches, forti-
fications block the streets and
byways. When / drove from
Berlin it took me 90 minutes 20
travel six miles because the
barricades are so thick it is diff
ffcuft to pass them.
When the Russians come they
must count on heavy anti-tanK
fire from each barricade. If ev-
erything goes according to
PLAN" one may predict Berlin 5
conquest will require six 10
eight weeks.
