By JOSEPH FLEMING United Presi International BERLIN IVPD East German sirls have Rone on a "love strike'' to keep their boy friends from drinking.

But while America's Carrie Nation only broke up saloons her tenmerance drive, the East German girls threaten to break ud romances. The eirls went into action be cause few East Europeans heeded Communist orders to sober up. East Europeans are trying to drown their discontent in large amounts of vodka, schnapps and beer, apparently because Com munism is driving them to drink. As a result, drunkenness has be come a major prooiem in tast Germany, the Soviet Union. Po land, Hungary and other Soviet bloc nations. Now the Reds are using sex as weapon to keep men on the wagon. The love strike was started by Gisela Huth of Schwenn, who complained that her boy friend 'once or twice a week consumed alcohol into the early hours." She told the Communist Youth newspaper "Young World" that all her powers of persuasion fail ed to keep her boy friend out ot bars. Finally, she told him, "If you do not stop drinking, I will leave you." Her decision was hailed by oth- girls who adopted the lame course. A girl at Wolnursleben said her boy friend too often celebrated other people's birthdays by drink ing. I gave him the ultimatum me or alcohol," she said in a letter to Young World. Among the letters was one from Ingrid Pausewang of Chemnitz, who reported lhat her boy friend is now teetotaler who finds drinking a waste of money. ' "It merely was necessary to convince him that there are mor interesting things in life thai drinking," she wrote. SUMMER SCHOOL ALL LIVELS DEDRICK PRIVATE SCHOOL 100S Pint Ph.
