Eastern Germany BONN, West Germany (AP) The Western powers refuse to|about through free elections. recognize formally the existence of Communist East Germany, whose designs on Berlin prominently in the crisis build- ing up over that divided city. Recognition has been with- held as a matter of common policy ever since the Russians| West. created the satellite nation out of their occupation zone in the eastern part of Germany. The Allies insist the division] of the old Third Reich that re- before turning his talents to full-| sulted from Hitler's defeat must|!evel with East Germany. be regarded as temporary and end with reunification brought The Soviet Union and the rest of the Communist bloc take the stand that the status quo should be accepted as final, with East Germany given clear title to the eastern sector of Berlin and total control over traffic be- tween all of the city and the To keep their policy from being compromised in any way, the United States, Britain and France have not entered into one agreement on a government West Germany treats East Germany contemptuously, call ing it nothing more than a sub- jugated part of the Soviet Un- ion. The Bonn government also refuses to extend diplomatic re. lations or to negotiate on polit- ical issues. TRADE IS EXEMPTED In an effort to get as much backing as possible for this at- titude, West Germany has de- veloped a firm doctrine. Under this it withdraws diplomatic rec- ognition from any country, with the exception of Russia, that recognizes East Germany. The doctrine was invoked against Yugoslavia and has been used as a threat in disputes with the United Arab Republic and Bra- zil. But the political - diplomatic boycott has not prevented West Germany from signing agree- ments with East Germany pro- viding for $500,000,000 worth of trade each year. In 1955 the Soviet Union turned over control of roads and railroads between West Ger many and Berlin to East Ger- many, but announced it would continue to exercise some con- trol pending further agreements. The Soviet Union also main tains full diplomatic relations with West Germany, the staunch ally of the West but rec- ognition has not meant friendly relations between the two coun- tries. Because of their positions on German reunification, the So- viet Union and West Germany wage almost incessant propa- ganda warfare against one an- other.
