Erwin Kreikemeyer, director general o'' the railway management, submitted his request to the Russian zone German economics commission, highest economic authority in the Soviet zone. Kreikemeyer said over the Potsdam radio that the commission was studying his recommendation and that he hoped Soviet authorities would speedily agree to it. He acted on the fifth of the strike in which two persons have been killed and more than 1,000 injured. The rail workers walked out Friday midnight, demanding that they be paid in western instead of eastern marks. Kreikemeyer said he recommended that the economics commission authorize collection of railway fares in the western sectors of Berlin in western marks and that western ra'ilway workers be paid in western-backed currency.

Soviet-backed east marks have only one-fourth the value of west marks. The Communist peace move came 14 hours after American, British and French intervention swept Soviet-German railway police and Communist squads from railway stations and yards in three sectors of Berlin. Western Berlin police moved into the stations, restoring order, but the trains were not yet running. Strikers foiled an attempt Wankerita Daily Freeman Wednetdoy, May 25, 1949 by Soviet soldiers to remove six locomotives from the Priesterweg freight yards in western Berlin to the Soviet sector. Soviet sector i breakers and Russian-controlled railway police left Berlin without a struggle.

They headed east by train and foot after Brig. Gen. Frank L. Howley, U. S.

Berlin commandant, gave them two hours to get out. He acted with the concurrence of his British and French counterparts. Howley, in a letter to the Soviet transport chief in Berlin, Gen. Vladimir I Petrov, said his action was taken because the Soviet zone strikebreakers and police hafl caused "unnecessary bloodshed" and created a situation "conducive to even greater violence unless curbed at once." The best known species of the wading bird family is the sacred Ibis, common in the Nile basin, where the bird was venerated by the ancient Egyptians.
