Berlin Ballot
Will Not Effect
Russian Zone
By Richard Kasisehke rJ
BERLIN, Nov. 27-(F-About 1,
250,000 West Berliner! are expect
ed to vote m week from tomorrow
in one of the strangest elections of
modern time- Caught 100 miles be
hind the iron curtain in the cold
war, they will make known which
of their conquerors they prefer.
Only two-thirds of the city, with
.1,700,000 eligible voters, can take
part. Originally the election was
scheduled city wide, but the Rus
sians have forbidden the ballot in
: the eastern third they occupy. An
earlier plan to make the ballot
available also to Germans in the
Russian sector, despite the ban, has
been abandoned as impractical.
West Berlin will elect a new city
government, but the almost certain
result is that Berlin will have not
one government but two. West Ber
lin will elect an anti-communist
government to administer the Bri
tish, French and American sectors.
- A communist regime probably will
be set up to rule the eastern sec
tor. Te Divide Berlin
As Gustav Klingelhoefer, social
ist city councilman, puts it, "Ber
lin, after the elections, will be as
surely divided as if there were two
cities instead of one."
The communists have refused
to try their strength in a froe elec
tion, and have forbidden voting
in east Berlin where about 1,
200,000 of Berlin's 3,250,000 Ger
mans live. They are campaign
ing, with threats and coercion, to
persuade the people in west Ber
lin, too, to stay home on election
day.
Try for Large Tote
The anti - communists are try
ing to get out a huge vote to make
it a resounding condemnation of
the Russian blockade and a. vote
of -confidence in the west.
On the ballot will be the can
didates of three anti - communist
parties the leftist social demo
crats, the conservative Christian

Well, I've been called everything else

Trae the prices are low and the quality is
high but the secret Is just in knowing
how and whea to bay. By doing a good

and still make a little money for myself.
After all I do have to eat, the horses need

democrats and! the rightist liberal
democrats.
But the big Issue is not written
on the ballot. : It is the question
of east versus west, western dem
ocracy versus1 communism, the
airlift versus the Russian block
ade. Anti - communists have taken
as their slogan, "Freedom versus
Moscow totalitarianism."
The election will give at least
two - thirds of Berlin's popula
tion a chance to raise its voice on
one of the roost critical issues
since the warj It is whether the
Russians should have their way
and gain full f control over what
they agreed should be a four -power
city behind their iron cur
tain. ,
All the months - long and fruit
less negotiations in Moscow, Ber
lin and Paris have been without
German participation. This is the
Berliners' chance to speak about
their own fate in the cold war.

Motorists to
Remove Keys

urday placed 2,000 yellow and
black cardboard keys on the wind
shields of autos parked in the
downtown district to remind mo
torists to remove ignition keys

The project was part of the or
ganization's current drive to curb

the keys were reminders that car
