East Germans
Got Red Help
On Prisoners

BERLIN, July S (H9.-Com-
munist East Germany admitted
tonight 1t sought Russian ad-
vice on how to handle the case
Of the nine United States Army
men taken prisoner when their
helicopter landed In East Ger
many June z.
Deputy Foreign Minister otto
Winner said that was normal
procedure under East Ger
many's troop stationing agree
ment with the Soviet Union.
The United States State De-
partment demanded again
Thursday that Moscow inter-
vene to release the prisoners.
This new request was made
after the prisoners In q Dres-
den news conference disclosed
that the East Germans turned
them over to the Russians for
one night.
In an interview with the
East German news agency
Adm, Mr.. Winner said Russian
army officers we're called in
for advice on identification Of
the prisoners and "other re-
lated questions"
Only Consultative
He said this was in keeping
with the consultative nature of
the mutual troop stationing
agreement and ION the basis Of
friendly relations between two
sovereign states"
Mr.. Winner, who has been
handling the helicopter case.
asserted the Russian involve
ment did not alter the fact that
the Americans were and will
remain under East German
control.
At their news conference the
prisoners derided the so-called
sovereignty Of the East German
regime. They said Russian off,
GERS signed receipts for them
when they were handed over in
a Soviet camp on the first night
|of their captivity.
The Russians returned the
Americans to the East German
army the next morning after
promising them they would be
released.
Reiterates Offer
The State Department con-
tends this further binds Russia
under the postwar Big Four ac-
cords to take responsibility for
releasing the prisoners.
Mr.. Winner reiterated his Of
fer to free the prisoners and
their helicopter if the United
States would sign an agree
ment with East Germany. The
United States has refused to do
this, contending that such an
agreement would imply recog-
milton of the East German
puppet regime.
Mr.. Winner disputed the
statement of Mai. George E.
Kemper, spokesman for the
prisoners, that q thunderstorm
caused their helicopter to go
of course. MIR. Winner asserted
flying conditions we're good,
The East German Ofiicial
also charged that during the
Dresden conference Maj. KEN
per refused to allow the other
prisoners to participate freely
lin the conference.
He made no reference to
Maj. Kemper's declaration that
the helicopter men were held
as political hostages or the
cries of kidnapers hurled at
the East Germans by prisoners
standing in the rear Of the
news conference room.
