Germans Riot In
Protest To Army
Housing Project
BREMERHAVEN, IJP —A thou
sand angry dock workers clashed
with German police riot squads
here today in a fight against the
U.S. Army’s project to build mili
tary apartments on the site of 25
German homes.
Fists and clubs flew as police
reserves were rushed to this port
from nearby Bremen to quell
the anti-American demnstration.
Waterfront Communist leaders
were rumored to have helped in- '
cite the violence.
Trouble started brewing when
owners of the 25 houses received
eviction notices recently. The
U.S. Army had requisitioned their
property under occupation law to
construct a 30 - million mark
($7,140,000) housing project for
American personnel. In turn, the
Army offered to release 741 re
quisitioned homes in Bremen to
German authorities.
When police attempted to enter
one of the requisitioned Bremer -
haven dwellings, 40 occupants of
the area stood them off with
clubs and pitchforks. A detach
ment of 25 policemen was forced
to withdraw.
Canada Looks To U.S. To
Build New ’Copters For
Anti-Submarine Patrol
OTTAWA, UP—Canada’s navy
plans to form an anti-submarine
helicopter squadron using “dunk
ing sonar” to track the undersea
craft.
Informants said the helicopters
will hover close to the ocean sur
face and lower the sonar listen
ing gear beneath the waves. If
they hear no subs, the sonar is
wound up and the aircraft moves
to another spot.
So far the Navy hasn’t been
able to find the helicopter for the
job. It needs one that can carry
more equipment—depth charges
as well as the sonar—and with
greater endurance than present
models.
The Canadians expect U. S.
manufacturers to come up with
the answer.
