Refusal to Open Berlin Wall for Christmas Profounds Families
Berlin and Washington report that East German leader Walter Ulbricht again refuses to open the Berlin Wall for Christmas reunions. About 800000 West Berliners have relatives in East Berlin, but the wall remains closed, leaving many families to communicate by radio during the holiday season. The last holiday opening occurred at Whitsun in 1966, with no prospect for Christmas access this year.
