The wall is our first report the report on The end of an action is, by the Communists called "humanitarian". Last day of pass agreement: 48,000 motor vehicles cause a traffic chaos at the crossing points and in the otherwise empty streets of East Berlin. In the 17 days that the border in one direction was open, 3 million West Berliners visited their relatives and friends behind the wall.
These were the last who received one of the more than 700,000 letters. Then, the file boxes were closed. The East Berlin officials in postal uniforms adopted himself. Only a few hours remained the West Berliners. On the last day, when the time limit is always approached, 280,000 people were counted at the crossing points. This corresponds to the population of Brunswick, Karlsruhe and Wiesbaden.
They return at midnight. They took farewell indefinitely. For many the physical collapse followed the mental shock.
"It went A lot tears, Yes, it was Very much saddened and we don't even know when we will meet again."
"I can't!"
"Nothing you can say. Well, the main thing is that we can come back soon again even here."
"That we only for hours face on to a pass and we had to say goodbye so sad today before midnight in all fast."
Yet even this sad happy days have left a result - the knowledge namely, that a politically sober judgment can be stronger than a momentary feeling.
"I would be that you should extend the permit issue not under concessions, political concessions."
"Yes, you should then I'd rather not make not so much concessions."
"Under concessions never!"
"NE, under political concessions not." Then we give better."
"NE, Me too think. "" But I would like to see, want ' n say that also over here isn't it can in the East, so as it has been. ""A mighty good one!"
"As we meet, Mr. Chancellor, the people of West Berlin for the first in years, are able to cross..."
With a commitment to the freedom of Berlin's the American President Lyndon B. Johnson in his home state of Texas, received the German Federal Chancellor and despite some external differences, Professor Erhard was Right away in a familiar atmosphere, because the ancestors of the inhabitants of Fredericksburg, for example are composed of 90 percent of Germans.
"The President of the United States, the great son of your country, told me when I here speak English to you, I am understood better circumstances than he did."
German banners given the image of those days at Johnson's ranch. Here, where one jumps from the stand in the saddle, where a world-famous beef is bred and President against ride their guests, the most important political conversation has been led since Kennedy's death. The debate were: the cold war, the Western Alliance and American chicken.
The Texan cattle meat United politicians finally to a respectable BBQ. Since Franklin D. Roosevelt dined the Majesties of England in similar informality with sausages, No more existed such a gesture in US diplomacy. The homage was perfect, as the German pianist van Cliburn Brahms and Beethoven played.
'' The President already said that I am an American Discovery. That's literally true. "On the day after the occupation of my country to the worst of all wars was an American officer in front of my apartment and picked me up with the laconic invitation: come on!"
President Johnson took advantage of every opportunity to highlight the personality of Professor Erhard. "I hope that your people keep you want busy at home, because I would not like to have you as opponent in a free election..."
"I want to have a campaign not as enemies", said he certainly not without political music and then step to the ceremony of the ten-gallons-hats, the highest dignity, which has to offer Texas.
Professor Erhard finished his journey in the United States not only with a political, but also with a great personal success. He won Johnson and the man in the street.
"Oh, I think he is a fine one, I think that he is getting along wonderfully, we are very very proud of him over here. I would say that like in English, but I'm scared, my German is not that good."
"I think he is a good man, otherwise they would not put him at the head of the Government."
"Yes, we have the right man and you have the right man, I think, hopefully - eh?"
The pilgrimage starts the third report, indicating that A lot of weight this week in Rome. For the first time in the history of the Holy See, a Pope visited the early sites of Christianity. For the first time, a Pope with an airplane journey. Aboard a jet aircraft Paul VI. flew in the Holy land.
What was intended originally as a pilgrimage, eventually became a political as well as religious demonstration for peace, unity and justice. The Pope messages of peace to the most powerful leaders of the Earth was still during the flight.
In old Jerusalem, located on Jordanian territory, Paul VI. was showered by the Arabs with jubilation. More than once, the guardians of public order were No more Lord of the location. The Holy Father celebrated the mass in the Holy Sepulchre, which is built on the Hill of Calvary.
Already here was in Jerusalem, that the major events of our time are disfigured willy-nilly by the interest that they cause in public. During the service, two more were on fire, but the crowd calmed down as the Pope in the dark continue undeterred prayed.
The bells of Nazareth, that city has the longest lived in the Christ, signaled a pilgrimage of the Pope on Israeli soil.
One of the stops in Israel was the chapel of the primacy of Peter on the sea of Galilee. At this point, Christ had given his order to Peter: feed my lambs.
Surrounded by about 2,000 journalists and followed by over a thousand photographers Paul VI. joined the trip. At the Mandelbaum gate, the border crossing between Israel and Jordan, he said goodbye to the Israeli President Zalman Shazar.
51 hours on biblical ground went to an end, as the Holy Father in the Jordanian capital Amman took leave. King Hussein, accompanied him to the plane. He had landed here as a pilgrim, as a man who has made history, Paul VI returned to Rome.
Still, nobody knows within the first hour of the fraternity, the consequences of this trip will be as weittragend. What is certain is that the Church, as perhaps never before, has been in motion and that the wave of this movement has spread to all solidified religions of the world.
