Essen Hit by Riot;
East Germans Ready
To Step Up Cold War
By the Assoeiofed Press

BONN Germany, May 12-
West Germany'S impending peace
contract brought a bloody week
end battle to industrial Essen and
reports today that East Germany's S
Communist rulers are readying a
drastic step-up in the cold war
against the West and tighter Rus
lsian-East German ties.
One young Communist was
killed in the Essen riot, in which
police gun fire broke up a clash
between anti-Reds and 10000
Communicated youths demon
strating against plans to rearm
West Germany for Western de-
lfense. Scores of demonstrators
were injured and 10 young Reds
were held by police as suspected
Iringleaders of the riot.
Here in the capital, meanwhile,
chancellor Konrad Adenauer met
with rebllious leaders from his
government coalition forces. Their
Opposition to the peace pact
threatens its chances of ratif1ca-
ton by the West German Parlia-
|ment.
Despite Mr., Adenauer's urging,
the opponents were reported still
|adamant that the United States,
Britain and France concede more
before West German troops are
furnished for the projected Euro
'pean army. The Allies already
have said they have gone as far
as they will.
AS the talks on the peace con-
tract continued in Bonn. informed
east zone sources in Berlin said
that Communist-surrounded me-
tropolis has been chosen by the
Russian and East German leaders
as the focal point of their cam
paign against the Western agree
ment.
These sources anticipated that
the East German government may
soon demand the uniflcation of
divided Berlin and withdrawal of
all occupation forces from the me-
tropolis. This, the sources added,
may be accompanied by drastic
measures" against West Berlin.
The East German government
already has said 1t will raise an
army-presumably with the pres
ent highly trained police force as

a nucleus-to counter West Ger
many'S planned participation in
the European army. Announcing
their plans for the army, the Reds
last week said West German re-
armament threatened the country
with civil war.
The Bonn government in its
official information bulletin
charged in reply yesterday that
East one Communists with Rus
sian aid have been training picked
young men in civil-war tactics for
months.
So far, however, the only new
concrete Russian action against
the West was the continuance of
a ban against Allied military
patrols from Berlin on the Berlin
Helmstedt express highway, the
only authorized Allied highway be-
tween Berlin and the West. 4

Tbs Land Of Ours
The Bridge
By JESSE GREEN

NO ONE appreciates a bridge.
We cross the many fine structures
about our country without
thought. We might well speculate
on how the rivers were crossed
before there were bridges, and
that was not so long ago.
The fine bridge in the photo
graph is across the Yellowstone
at Fallon. A few winters ago the
river went on a rampage. Ice
gorged, and although the old
bridge was high above the water,
it was carried away and almost
lost in the piles of ice down
stream.
Those of US who travelled that
way really missed the bridge. In
due time a new one was COM
pleted at great cost. It is difficult
for US to comprehend all the work
that was done. The mining Of the
ore; the smelling of the iron and
its conversion into many tons Of
steel which were worked into
beams for the bridge. There was
the long experience accumulated
by the builders before they could
be instructed to do the work of
drawing the design, and finally
the great pains and work to place
the piers on a lasting footing and
set the structure on them. The
river must not again destroy the
bridge. It is the mind of man
pitted against the forces of Ma
ture.
A bridge is the work of the
community.
