EIGHT MEDrOBD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thuriday. March 14, 1957 O Trip To East Germany Declared Like Going Into Another World Berlin U.R) A trip from West Germany to East Germany is a trip to another world. Control points manned by Communist police are not neces sary to remind travellers that a border has been passed separat ing the Federal Republic of Ger many from the German Demo cratic Republic. Everything suddenly changes. Only the same language remains. People look different, dress dif ferently, act differently. Eastern Stamp Twelve years of Communist rule have placed an Eastern stamp on the 42,000 square miles of Germany with 17 mil lion people placed under Soviet occupation at the end of World War II. Travelers who entered East Germany from the West for the annual Leipzig trade fair were shocked by the contrast between East and West. The once-thriving city of Leip zig has become a drab, run-down city populated by poorly-dressed people who have little more than the bare necessities of life and sometirriei; not even these. There was none of that hustle and bustle, the lights, the gaiety, those outward signs of prosper ity so prevalent in West Ger many. Feople familiar with the So viet Union said the air of the city, its feeling of depression, was more typical of Russia than Germany. Best Foot Forward The contrast with the West is particularly striking in Leipzig for the Communists attempt to put their best foot forward to impress foreign visitors during the fair. But the dullest West German small town is more attractive, more rich looking, more alive WINNING French court ver dicras secret son of late King Carol of Romania. Mircea Lambrino, 37, will inherit snare of estate left by mon arch. (International) 1932 than Leipzig is with its popula tion of about 600.000 swelled by thousands of visitors. The visitors from any West ern nation stand out immediate ly in Leipzig. One quick look at any crowd is enough to separate East Germans from foreigners or West Germans.

Hass, Medford Registered Representative Immigration Service May Drop Hearings To Deport Tokyo Rose San Francisco (U.R) De portation proceedings against the "Tokyo Rose" of World War II appeared today to be bogged down in Washington. And there was a strong indi cation that the Immigration Ser vice is considering the possibil ity of dropping proceedings to deport Mrs. Iva Toguri d'Aquino. Bruce Barber, director of the Immigration Service in San Francisco, said no date has been set for hearings on the deport ation proceedings. He indicated he is awaiting word cn the case from Washington. In Washington, a spokesman for the service said the govern ment must still decide whether to go ahead with the proceed ings or drop them. He said the case is under study and that the government is "proceeding very slowly." Ignored Order The Immigration Service or dered the Americah-born Mrs. D'Aquino to leave the country or face deportation last March, shortly after she got out of Al- derson Federal prison in West Virginia. Mrs. D'Aquino won a condi tional release from the prison in January, 1956, after serving six and one-half years of a 10 year sentence imposed on her in 1949. Mrs. D'Aquino was convicted in San Francisco of one count of treason. The charge was the result of her wartime broad casts over Tokyo Radio in which she tried to demoralize Ameri Mock War Scheduled To Start in April Washington (U.R) More than 40,000 Army troops will en gage in mock war in Louisiana's massive maneuver area this spring ;n a test of atomic age concepts for airborne, infantry and armored combat units.

On that occasion, she entered in the custody of Army officials to await trial for treason. The De partment of Justice said this was illegal entry because she had no passport or entry credentials and was an alien. But her attorney, Wayne Col lins said if she was an alien who entered illegally In 1948, she should have not been tried for treason. He said he will ar gue at her deportation hearing that she is still an American cit izen and thus not deportable. Meanwhile, Mrs. D'Aquino Is working for Collins as a typist and living in his home. She had a hard time obtaining work be caue she insisted on using her own name. She is said to be a model probationer. Stewardess May Be Questioned in Mexico Murders Acapulco, Mexico (U.R) Police said today they may ask Los Angeles authorities to ques tion an airline stewardess about the slaying here of two tourists from New York. . Police said Ruth Waechter. of Los Angeles, wrote Luis Fenton two weeks after the slaying of the couple and enclosed a clip ping from a newspaper telling of their disappearance. Fenton has admitted hiring an illiterate handyman to kill Mrs. Edith Hallock, 63. and Joseph Michel, 70, for Mrs. Hallock's jewels. 'Shot Anybody Yet?' Miss Waechter started her let ter to Fenton by saying: "Hi, sweetie, shot anybody yet?" po lice said. They said a picture of Mrs. Hallock was enclosed and on the side she had written, "Is this the woman with the half mil lion dollars in jewels?" Police said it had been deter mined she was in Acapulco the night the couple were beaten to death and their bodies tossed into Acapulco Bay: In Los Angeles, Miss Waech ter said she knew Fenton and had written him but "I'm not involved in any way with the double murder.
