Still Moving To The Western Zone i Stories Of Imprisonment Are Told Daily by Hund reds Of Refnpees^^ Migration from behind the Iron , Curtain goes forward daily in Berlin, and many of the refugees tell tragic stories of their im prisonment, according to the foi-i lowing story just recently out of the German citv: Berlin.—Some of them have come from concentration camps deep in Siberia. These are among those who were released by the Soviets in Januaiy and July in a sudden and mysterious amnesty. After questioning scores of these persons, West German of ficials still can find no logical ex planation for these pardons. "The Soviets probably needed more room in the concentration camps," is their best guess. The pardons came unexpected ly, according to the refugees. They apparently Were granted indis criminately. Some with a life sentence were released, others with only minor offenses were left behind. Road Hand In Siberia These former concentration camp inmates now are filtering into the western sector almost daily. It was hard to realize that the young woman who came in the door to seat herself before the Emergency Acceptance Board for East German Refugees was one of these. She had been in Siberia since 1951, she told the board, one of 5,000 women who were put to work as road hands and in heavy construction work. She was a slight woman, with alert brown eyes, and a spirit which obviously had not bei n broken She told her story with forth-right fluency. The crime for which she had been convicted by the Soviets was espionage, and her sentence was 25 years in prison. She told her story to the ex amining board composed ol two men and one woman—one of the 2S boards to whom the hundreds of refugees pouring into the wes : rein ■f'av'fr'dsv make th«ts* upp; d for government aid. Persecuted Get Aid Only those who have hud ac tual cause to seek safety in West Berlin because of political per secution by the Communists are eligible for assistance. If they can prove the necessity for flight, they are assigned to a job and housing either in Berlin or are flow'll out at government ex pense to some other part of West Germany. The young woman was not a regular espionage agent, she said, but when working in a railway office in the Soviet sector had been approached by a former neighbor who asked her to sup ply him with the forms showing the movement of freight trains. This neighbor was a member of the British Secret Service, al though she did not know his ex act connection at the time. But being strongly anti-Communist, she agreed to give him this data. She, along with others, was ap prehended when a disgruntled member of the espionage group reported the activity to the Com munist officials. All members yvere arrested, five were senten ced to capital punishment and four, of which she was one, to 25 years in prison. Tragic Outcome Upon her release, she was taken to East Berlin again, and went immediately to the home of her parents where she was reunited with her 10-year-old son. Her throat tightened and tears came to her eyes for the first time as she told of the boy’s illness which came in (he form of a nervous breakdown as a result of the strain of his mother’s long ab sence and sudden return. He final ly was taken to a mental insti tution, she said. Applying for work, she was of fered another job with the rail way provided she would agree to inform on her co-workers. This she refused to do and fled to West Berlin. She left the room as she finish ed her story, but her cuse was so obviously a legitimate one that there was no discussion and she was recalled immediately to re ceive her work permit. The next applicant for aid was a woman of mature figure and appearance. She had been in charge of a group of women workers in a factory in East Ber lin. She had been accused of mis treating the employees under her She denied the accusation, but was sentenced to 12 years of hard labor in a concentration camp. Forced March Related She told of a forced march of 30 miles from one camp to an other, without pause for rest, dur ing which many fell from ex haustion. Her voice broke as she recalled this episode. The board gave approval to her applicant for aid. .... ..KastJXywtafl refugees. ••! ill are crossing the horde. .it toe V lie of 330 or more a day.
