Six tons of Swiss anti aircraft ammunition destined for Guatemala were held in Hamburg at the request of the U.S. High Commission.

Bern said the shells are 20 mm with cheap practice heads not high explosives and converting them would be costly, though they could be used as is. German officials, port authorities, and the Transport Ministry discussed restricting cargo.
