German Premier Says Pact Would Make New 'Korea' BERLIN East German Premier i Otto Grotewhol warned today that the proposed peace contract between Western Germany and the Western Allies would turn Germany into a European "Korea." "Through signature of the general 'war contract," similar- conditions to those in Korea are to be built up in Germany," he said in a message marking the seventh anniversary of Nazi Germany's surrender in Berlin. "The great danger of a civil war of German against German arises. The workers, and intelligentsia in the German Democratic Republic will not surrender the political, econdmic and cultural achievements of recent years and let themselves be swallowed up by American imperialism." Grotewhol said East.

Germany will arm to "fight" the peace contract and take other counter-measures to protect itself against "American and German imperialism." warning came as West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer and the Western high commissioners were putting the finishing touches in Bonn to the contract which will make West Germany a sovereign member of the free world. East Germany already has begun recruiting for its "armed forces" and it was bc-lieved the government soon would proclaim establishment of a national army. Grotewhol said Germans face a choice between a four-power peace treaty' or what he called a "war contract" with the West. He said the contract meant "establishment of a military dictatorship in Western Germany and increased danger of war, civil war and World War III. "The progressive and peace-loving forces, of Germany were not freed in May 1945 by the glorious Soviet Army in order to be compelled in May 1952 to enter the yassalge of American imperialism, revived German imperialism and their Fascist hangman," Grotewhol said.

Grotewhol did not say specifically what action the East German Reds would take if and when Adenauer signs the compact with the U.S., Britain and France. But his message followed closely on two other significant developments in Eastern Germany: 1. The Communist "Free German Youth" began recruiting for an East German Army. 2. The East German Communist party's central committee promised Soviet Premier Josef Stalin that it would "organize our readiness for" combat and ability to fight" for the defense of an "independent Germany."
