(UPI) A staff attorney for the state public utilities commission says the commission last year blocked him from trying to prove that San Diego financier C. Azrnholt Smith illegally controls Golden West Airlines.

Telephone lines ran hot, telegrams increased by more than 100 per cent, the mails were flooded in preparation for a reunion long desired. City officials, advising citizens on how to fill out Eastern application forms, said, "Write German where it asks your nationality."

ERB BERLIN UP) The Berlin wall opens Wednesday and a flood tide from among West Berlin's 2.2 million is expected' to flow East in the eight-day pass period over Easter. Not since 1966 have there been seasonal wall passes. West Berliners without blood kin among East Berlin's 1.1 million people have been shut out since 1961. All West Berliners have been barred from the East German countryside since 1952. Their trip will mark the greatest get-together of East and West since Germany and get through the wall.

Hardship passes, issued regularly for family emergencies in East Berlin, make it possible, to chart what it is like when Easterner meets Westerner after years of separation. A journeyman Western chimney sweep told of finding long-haired youths, mod and pop culture-oriented like himself, in the East "I still like my old East Berlin neighborhood," he said. "I miss it and the people." His former schoolmates envied him most for his shiny new car. A West Berlin police officer said his 21-year-old nephew besieged him to find a way for the youth to reach the West. "When I saw him last, before the wall," the oficer said, "he was a Communist youth organization zealot." An East Berlin mother of two born in the West, trapped by the wall and love in the East, recalled how a visit by her mother turned into a nightmare.

"She lost her identity card at the border," she said. "We spent most of the 24 hours she was with us trying to find it." Despite the risk, the mother left her Russians See Church Role Clouded As Easter Nears Gov. John J.

A Communist party functionary, a soccer buff, tells a colleague from West Berlin, in name of a Nobel Prize laureate, author Alexander Sol-zhenitsyn.

Addressed to Patriarch Pimen, it was circulated by Solzhenitsyn's sympathizers in the flimsy copies of the Soviet press. So far the Moscow patriarchate has not acknowledged receiving the letter. And the a i i n-minded Russian church continued without comment to hold Lenten services looking toward the rich liturgy of the Orthodox Easter on April 9. From small, golden-domed parish churches to the ornate Yelokhovsky Cathedral, believers chanted and prayed without indication they had ever heard of Solzhenitsyn's challenge to Pimen. The issues he raised have MOSCOW UP) An old controversy over the role of religion under communism has seized the Holy Russian Orthodox Church in the midst of its preparations for Easter.

How far can the church submit to the controls of an atheist government and still remain a valid church? Do heavy restrictions on its teaching, publications and ability to reach out to the unchurched condemn it to eventual disappearance? Is martyrdom preferable to a ministry restricted by alien Communist authority?

Understandably, organized religion has lost ground under Communist rule. JUST HOW MANY believers the Russian church can now claim in the Soviet Union is unknown. Churchmen speak casually of 50 million. When pressed they admit there is no sure count and the figure could be half that many among the country's some 225 million inhabitants.
