Defected Deputy
Says W. Germany
Heading for War
BERLIN, ,101—A West German
Parliament deputy from Chancel
lor Konrad Adenauer’s Christian
Democrat Party, who defected to
the Communists a week ago, told
an East Berlin news conference
Thursday he fears the Adenauer
government “with American
prodding” is driving Germany
toward war and ruin.
The Communist eastern gov
ernment triumphantly presented
former Parliament Deputy Karl
Schmidt-Wittmack to an interna
tional press conference in the So
viet sector Thursday, just as they
did former West German security
chief Otto John on Aug. 11.
The 40-year-old Schmidt-Witt
mack, who was deputy chairman
of Adenauer’s CDU party in Ham
burg, crossed into the East just a
week ago with his wife and
daughter.
He said Western charges that he
had been a traitor are “ridicu
lous” because his intent is to
“defend Germany and to work
for German unity.”
He assailed what he called the
Western goal of rearming Ger
mans to point them eastward. And
he asserted these are- the Allied
Adenauer plans: 1. West German
rearmamen* will nn ahead wheth
er inside the European Defense
Communitv (EDr'i o>- nit-nd- it. j
2. The plans have already been
drawn up for armv, now and '’ir J
force bv a commitbc beadrd by j
Gen. Alfred Gru'-'th^r, TT.S. com
mander in chief of the North At
lantic Pact forces <NATO> in Eu
rope and Gen. Adolf Heusinger,
veteran German officer who is
Adenauer’s top military adviser.
3. The Gruc-nther-Heusinger
committee hag fixed Nov. 1 as tar
get date to activate the new Ger
man Wehrmacht.

Pilot Herman Ludwigsen
Of Ketchikan Makes His
Third Rescue of The Year
KETCHIKAN, UP) — Herman
Ludwigsen, 27-year-old pilot who
collected $25,000 for finding the
wreckage of New Mexico oilman
Ellis Hall’s plane last September,
was back today from his third
such mission in a year.
He brought in Bill Garrett and
Garrett’s 5-year-old son. Garrett,
of the Civil Aeronautics Author
ity staff at Annette Island, had
crashed his plane into a cliff at
Downdraft Lake near Dali Head,
south of here, Wednesday while
going deer hunting.
Ludwigsen flew to the lake
where he landed near the wreck
age. He found nobody. So he flew
to a salt water beach three miles
away and eventually found Gar
rett and his son huddled around
a camp fire. He flew them to
Annette. He said neither was
“much hurt.”
The lake had lived up to its
name—Downdraft Lake —having
sucked the plane into a downdraft
as it landed and bouncing it up
against the cliff.
