BERLIN - A red-faced city gov
eminent recently discovered that
the list of Berlin's Honorary citi-
zens" still bears the names Of Adolf
Hitler, Hermann Goering, Josef
GOebbels and a number of other
leading Nazis.
An immediate purge was ordered
which will also include the restora-
ton Of honorary citizenship to per
sons from whom it was withdrawn
during the Nazi era on racial or
political grounds.
The only person to whom honor
airy citizenship has been granted in
Berlin since the war is the white
haired, septuganarian Wilhelm Pr
eek, Germany's No. Communist
and co-chairman of the Russian
sponsored German Socialist Unity
party.
PECK was made "Ehrenburger"
by the COmmunist-controlled citv
government which was installed bv
the Russians when they were sole
occupiers of the city and which was
swept out of Office when Berlin held
its first postwar election on Oct. 20.

SIND birthday.
Accession to the throne went to
Charlotte in 1919, when Grand
Duchess Marie Adelaide, a devOut
woman with no taste for ruling,
abdicated and joined a convent.
The powers Of the Sovereign
were limited, and Charlotte
brought about universal suffrage
with proportional representation
and franchise for women. Most in

the creation in April 1924 of five
chambers, for traders and indus
trialists, agriculturists, artisans,
private employees and .wOrkmen.
THE chambers have the power
to create and maintain institu-
tons and the right to propose bills,
which must be submitted to the
Chamber of Deputies. They also
have right to be consulted before
laws affecting their professional
interests are passed by the Cham
Der of Deputies.
