East German Bosses
Plagued by Growing
Desertions 10 West

BERLIN. May 27.-East Ger
man desertions to West Berlin
plagued the Communist bosses Of
East German tonight.
Staging the biggest youth dem
onstrat ton here since the Hitler
era, the Communists found some
of their unwilling followers were
slipping away from them in in
creasing numbers to the freedom
of Allied occupied West Berlin.
The desertions increased. de-
spite frightened border controls.
Leading the deserters were mem
bers of the Communist-controlled
peoples police"
Since the youth demonstration
began three days ago. 35 members
of the peoples police" in the
Soviet sector have sought asylum
in West Berlin. This police" or
ganization has been branded by
the Western Allies as an illegal,
Soviet-sponsored army. Fourteen
of these policemen deserted this
afternoon, presenting themselves
at West Berlin refugee centers.
They were accepted as political
refugees.
There is no way of checking
how many others may have fed.
Among the deserters are some of
the blue-shirted, Communicated
youth. Nine of these had re-
quested asylum up to tonight.
Most of the Communist youth
were being watched closely by
East German police to keep them
from straying into the forbidden
Western sectors. Those who do
get across secretly through side
streets expressed astonishment at
"a world we never knew about"
They were amazed at the we'll
stocked store windows and res
taurants and fruit stands offering
unrationed oranges and bananas.
They commented:

starving. We can't quite believe
it."

to return to work after a UNIV
committee had addressed them.

ously" by the union leaders. Mr..
Ferguson said.

East German Leader
Scorns Allied Demand
For Free Elections
BY the Assoeioied Press

BERLIN, May 27.-Walter Ul-
BRIGHT. East Germanys Commu-
mist Strongman, tonight rejected
Western proposals for Germany
wide elections to unity this divided
country. He called the suggestions
"Hottentots' talk"
The spade Ulbricht de-
livered one Of the most vitriolic
attacks against the West ever
heard here in an address to a
congress Of young peace fighters"
on the eve of the Whitsuntide
march Of Communicated youth on
Berlin.
He demanded that the Ameri-
can and British occupation forces
withdraw from Germany and in
spired cries of "Yank. go home!"
and Tommy, go home!" from his
Communist audience.
Election Demanded BY Allies.
The three Western Allies de-
manded yesterday that Russia
agree to alderman unity through
free general elections and guar
antees of individual freedoms. The
demand was made in a joint
statement by the United States,
British and French high commits
Sioners for Germany addressed to
the Soviet high command in the
East Zone. 1t said that a freely
elected nationwide German gov
ernment should lead Immediately
to the negotiation of a four
power German peace settlement.
Ulbricht is deputy premier of
the Soviet-sponsored East Ger
man government. In his speech
he pictured Russia as Germany's
great and enduring friend and
the Western powers as this coun-
try's "enslavers. He predicted
that Russia soon will grant East
Germany an ocean-going ner-
chant fleet. |
The speech followed by two days
his statement that the East Ger
man government was negotiating
with Russia for the establishment
of a civil air transport system of
its own. This is forbidden under
four-power demilitarization de-
crees to which the Russians also
have subscribed. The ban ap-
plies to both Eastern and Western
Germany.
ScornS Western Demand.
Ulbricht referred with scorn to
the Western high commissioners
demand for nationwide cleo
tions, saying:
What they (the West) want
Is Hottentots' elections. (The
Hottentots are one of the South
African native tribes) They want
elections which will restore to
power the big land owners, indus
trialists and bankers who would
then return to Berlin from the
West, whence they have flown.
That is the plan of the masters
in London and New York.
They talk about freedom, but
how can anybody speak about
freedom in Germany so long as
the American occupation officers
rest their feet on the tables of the
German people?"
Ulbricht called on West Ger
mans to build a resistance move
ment" against the Western occu-
patton powers.
He urged the youth of West
Germany to do all in your pow
er to sabotage the transport of
American weapons and war mate
rials."
