Outbreak Serious

BERLIN (CP)-The Russians threw iin entire armored division into East Berlin Wednesday night to crush a German workers' re- bellion and general strike.

soviet martial law was backed up with the largest reinforcements of tanks. artillery and infantry ever used to subdue a European city short of war.

The fresh armored division reached the eastern city limits from zonal bases after a day of street lighting by 50.000 unarmed Germans with a soviet armored regiment and 10.000 Communist police. Two anti-Communists were killed and more than 100 wound- ed. The new Soviet force-spproxi- mately 10.000 troops with 200 hea- vy tanks-was rushed up as the anti-Communist strike paralyzed East Berlin.

Government Helpless

The Red East German govern- ment of Prime Minister Otto Grotowohl appeared helpless in the continuing crisis.

The general strike spread to other Soviet zone cities. State rall- way workers walked out in sym- pathy with East Berliners and crippled zonal communications.

Despite the Soviet martial law decree. violent clashes occurred Wednesday night in Alexander. Platz, Potsdamer Platz and Stalin Aiiee. Russian troops and Com- munist police fired repeatedly at demonstrators.

Anti-Communists raided an old Communist store at Potsdamer Platz and set it. ablaze. They also put Haus Vaterland. a Communist restaurant in the vicinity. to the torch.

"Ivan go Home"

During the day the rioters burned police boxes. hauled down Red flags. smashed a dozen gov- ernment cars. manhandled Ger- man Communist. officials and shouted "Ivan go home" in a spontaneous outlet of emotions piled up through the post-war years.

soviet tanks which blazed away at massed rioters in East Berlin also turned on crowds of specta- toigs standing on the West sector border. Between 10 and 20 persons in West Berlin were wounded.

Zone sealer! of!

West German reports said Rus- riaii troops had sealed off East Berlin from the soviet zone fol- lowing the mass entranca of East German workers to join in the anti-government demonstrations. The reports said strikes. protest marches and demonstrations against the Communist govern- ment were spreading rapidly throughout the entire soviet zone
