MORTGAGE A FHA Conventional Commercial I NEWELL ROBBS MORTGAGE BANKERS EAMJ01 MM E. BROADWAY A German court has reopened the case of Anna Anderson, who now lives in a hut at the edge of the Black Forest in West Germany, but who claims to be the Grand Duchess Anastasia of Russia. In the following Interview Prince Vasili Romanov gives his views on the case. He now a San Francisco stock broker. A first cousin of Ana- he was her childhood playmate.

By RONALD WAGONER SAN FRANCISCO UPI-- One ef the few remaining members of the royal family of Czarist Russia today the claim of a woman Europe that she is me Rus- Grand Duchess Anastasia is without any foundation in fact. Prince Vasili Romanov, who as a child played with Anastasia, said he is sure he reflects the belief of all remaining members of his family. In fact, he was quite emphatic. "It's asinine. It's so ridiculous that it's unbelievable," said Rom- anov, now a San Francisco stockbroker.

Why, he asked, would the members of the royal family of Czarist Russia wish to disclaim any legitimate relative? No money is involved and the remaining members of the family are convinced that the woman claiming to be Princess Anastasia is a fraud. For 37 years Anna Anderson, a middle-aged woman now living in a shack on the edge of West Germany's Black has claimed that she is Anastasia, youngest daughter of the last Czar of Russia and sole survivor of the Red Army massacre of the royal family in 1918. Dramatized in stage play, movie and book, the Anastasia case is one of the century's most baffling royal mysteries. Now it is headed toward a new court test in Hamburg. The riddle is made even more Intriguing by rumors that as much as 30 million gold rubles were deposited in the Bank of England by Czar Nicholas II during World War I.

Romanov is a first cousin of Anastasia. He insists that Anna Anderson, who claims to be Anastasia, is an impostor. What incenses him me most about her claim Is not that she might inherit a fortune left by the Czar; he is convinced there is none. Rather, It is the implication that the surviving members of the royal family, "this really devout and devoted family," would deliberately refuse to recognize their own kin. He said the Grand Duchess Olga met Anna Anderson face to face, as did many members of the imperial household, and agreed that she is not her niece, Anastasia.

Olga, now living in Toronto, Can ada, as Mrs. Olga Kulikovsky, Is the late Czar's sister. "The Grand Duchess Olga, the aunt of Anastasia, loved her brother and his family," Romanov said. "Do you think that she would not recognize her own niece? Do you think that the members of the household, whose loyalty, integrity and honesty cannot be questioned would not recognize her as the rea grand duchess? Don't you realize the joy that they would have felt if this woman were really the Grand Duchess Anastasia? What would have prompted those people to say that she was an impostor? Nothing but the truth." Romanov said his grandmother the late Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna, was alive when Anna Anderson first claimed to be Anastasia. So were King George of England, King Christian of Denmark, King Haakon of Norway and Prince Henry of Hesse (Germany), all of whom were related to Anastasia.

None recognized Anna Anderson as the grand duchess, he said. "Do you think that the mysterious money that was supposed to be in some bank would interest any of these people and that they would not recognize their own flesh and blood?" he demanded. "What kind of people do you think we are supposed to be?" Romanov said he is sure the present Communist regime in Russia is "delighted" over the Anastasia controversy because it serves to discredit the reputations of Empress Maria Feodorovna; his mother, Grand Duchess Xenia of London; and his aunt, Grand Duchess Olga of Toronto. He conceded that some of the supporters of Anna Anderson's claim may bs the victims of "sentimental hysteria" and sincere in their desire to recognize her as the grand duchess. In the meantime, a 'German judge plans to come to North America late in March or early April to gather fresh evidence that might put to rest the Anastasia mystery once and for all.

Judge Heinrich Backen is a member of the Hamburg Civil Court that reopened the case about 14 months ago after Miss Anderson suffered legal setbacks in 1933 and 1957. Backen will in- witnesses in Canada and the United States on behalf of the court. One of the witnesses he is scheduled to see is Mrs. Herman Jud, Glen Cove, N.Y., Grand Duchess Xenia. She said in a sworn statement last May that she believes Anna Anderson is Anastasia.

But court officials said -she appeared to have made the reservation that she would only recognize the Anderson woman as Anastasia if she refrained from seeking official recognition. The Hamburg court also wants to check scars on Anna Anderson's feet She said'they were the result of bayonet wounds wffered when Army troops executed the family in the basement of a house in a Siberian village July 16, 1918. The German House of Hesse claims the scars were left after an in a Berlin ammunition factory where Anna Anderson worked in World War I. The House of Hesse, which opposed the Anderson woman in court tests, claimed she was actually one Franziska Schanskowski member of a Polish peasant amily. The court also will determine any physical resemblance of Anna Anderson to the royal family, along with her knowledge of the Russian language.

When Anna Anderson first proclaimed herself as Anastasia, a year and a half after being pulled Torn a Berlin canal as a would-be suicide, the strongest factor supporting her story was her detailed knowledge of personalities and events of the Russian court. She told a harrowing tale of escaping the fate of her father, mother, three sisters and several members of the royal household. She said a member of the execution party, Alexander Tchaikovsky, noticed she was still alive and rescued her. She said he, with his brother, mother and sister, took her across Russia in a farm cart and escaped over the border into Rumania. She subsequently gave birth to a child and married Tchaikovsky, she said, and he later was killed in an unexplained street shooting.

Soon afterward she traveled to Berlin and attempted suicide, she said. Romanov, who escaped from Russia aboard a British battleship in the Black Sea in 1919 describes it all in two words: hoax."
