Heligoland Use
As Target Draws
German Protest
HAMBURG (iW A German
prince today joined the protest in
vasion of Heligoland to win back
that island now a target for
training Allied bombers for its
ousted inhabitants.
The new recruit in the Heligo
land crusade is Prince Huherlus
Zu Lownstcin, a former anti-Na?i
refugee who has been a bitter critic
of Allied occupation policies since
returning to Germany after t h e
war.
As Prince Hubertus set sail
from Hamburg, six Germans ware
already on the island which has
been barred to Germans and used
for Allied aerial bombing practice
since the war.
British officials were reported
considering drastic measures i
halt the protest movement whicn
was. threatening to grow into a
mass demonstration. The British,
however, issued orders halting the
aerial bombing of the target island
until further notice thus spar
ing the invaders from the threat
of death by bombs.
Heligoland, a smal island of
rock in the North sea 40 miles olf
the north German coast, was
cleared of its 1,400 inhabitants in
1945. Since then no one has been
permitted on the island, while Brit
ish and American bombers have
blasted it repeatedly in practice
bombing raids.
Germans have clamored increas
ingly for its return to their hands.
The protest invasion began Dec.
20 with two German university
students declaring they would stay
on the island until bombed to death
or until the island was "liberated."
They left after two days,- just
as the British were ready to re
move them forcibly. But they re
turned yestcrdav, reinforced by
two former residents of the island.
They found a Bremen taxi driver
already encamped on the island,
and fishermen reported that a n
unidentified German newspaper re
porter had increased the invading
force to six.
Prince Hubertus fled Nazi Ger
many in 1933 and served as visit
ing professor of history and gov
ernment in several American
1 universities before returning to
Germany in 1946. His mother was

Inquiry into the case with Russian
authorities, who have conducted a
sporatlic "battle of barges" with
the west this year.
Pending further investigation,
the allied officials said no reprisals
against Soviet zone barga in west
Berlin canals were under consi
deration. In previous clashes over water
traffic, the western powers have
compelled the Russians to release
West German barges by tying up
eastern craft in Berlin.
The new barge trouble came on
the heels of an informal warning by
the Soviet commandant on the in
terzonal frontier at Helmstedt that
Germans would no' be allowed to
cross in allied automobiles.
Allied officials aaill the warning
was given orally, but even if it
were in writing, they would not ac
cept it.
Many Germans are employed by
the Western powers to drive gov
ernment - owned vehicles, they
pointed out. No serious delay of
German drivers or passengers has
been reported at the frontier re
cently. The warning, however, added a
new worry to those plaguing the

Operators Wary
Of Price Freeze
WASHINGTON UP) - Soft coal
operators, with a wary tya on the
unpredictable John L. Lewis, have
been trying lo persuads price Ad
ministrator Michael V. Disalle to
keep the lid off coal prices indef
initely. For one thing, the operators have
argued in conferences already held
that coal prices are trailing last
year's and profits are down from
1949, despite heavy production and
expanding markets. The 25 cents
a ton which the last March settle
ment with union Chief Lewis cost
them was absorbed without a price
boost, they said.
A price freeze would bring with
it controls on the miners' wages,
and the operators who don't look
for trouble this year are fejrful
that might stir Lewis to challeng
the whole stabilization setup.
Reports circulatint through the
coal fields have it that Lewis soon
will ask for another dollar a day
for his miners now getting $14 75
as base daily pay. It also is ru
mored that the miners' boss will
seek to increase the 30 rents a ton
now paid into the United Mine
workers welfare and pension fund.
It is piling up at the rate of SIM),
000.000 a year, but outlay is high.
Figures on his welfare demand run
from 3 cents to 10 cents more a
ton.
Lewis himself, who returned re
cently from a Florida vacation,
hasn't tipped his hand. The con
tract signed last March 5, giving
the diggers a 70 cents a day wage
increase and 10 cents on the wel
fare fund, was for two years, but
either side may open it on 30 days'
notice next April 1.
