Soviet Grab Takes Land In West Zone
In Ratzeburg Germany a Soviet colonel in charge of East German police seized a 200 yard by 170 yard strip of West German land on the interzonal frontier and refused a British officer's demand to evacuate it. Eastern police seized the land with rifles broad daylight and a house with three West German families nearby fell into Communist hands. The incident follows a sequence of frontier grabs since May as East Germany converts the border into a dead zone amid deadly clashes and a border officer was killed nearby.
