German Unions
Must Obev Orders
Or Get No Food
HAMBURG. (.V)—German trade
union leaders threatened Saturday
to resist, by non-cooperation, any
further dismantling of factories
for reparations.
Gen. Lucius D. Clay comment
ed: “If the German unions refuse
to obey orders they can hardly ex
pect us to keep shipping in mud
to feed them.” The U. S. military
governor declared the British
American zone would post for rep
arations a list of German factories
considered surplus to the new
level of industry for western Ger
many—whether the German.; liked
it or not.
Adolf Kummernus, chairman of
the trade unions Congress, of
Hamburg, predicted “ s.t r i k e s
throughout the British zone if the
occupation powers’ policy is car
ried out.” Trade unionists said ci
ders had already been issued to
their members not to cooperate in
the dismantling of factories in the
western zones for reparations.
They added that “resistance”
would be made in the case of
plants regarded by the workers as
essential for peacetime industry.

Buffaloes Compete With
PAA At Big Delta
SEATTLE—A herd of buffalo
and a Pan American Clipper com
peted last week for use of the Big
Delta airport, Capt. James Stew -
art, pilot of the plane, reported
here today, on his return from an
Alaska trip.
The four-engine plane w'ith i
full load of passengers, landed
briefly at the Big Delta airport,
while waiting for weather to clear
at Fairbanks, 90 miles away.
While the big plane warmed up
for take-off, 150 buffaloes mo zed
over to the landing strip to graze,
It took several soldiers in jeeps to
drive them to one side.
“An experimental herd ot bui
faloes was first brought into Rig
Delta 18 years ago,” Capt. Stew
are said. “Residents have a great
deal of respect for them; they
charge on the slightest provoca
tion.”
Capt. Stewart recalled an inci
dent ten years ago, when a bush
pilot made an emergency landing
at Big Delta, anB left his plane to
get an engine fixed. When he re
turned, the buffaloes had eaten
the fabric off both wings and the
flippers.
