Death in Los Angeles Los Angeles's death came during the night, and he came unexpectedly. In one of the richest cities in America, a slight rise was enough to trigger one of the biggest revolts of the Negro in American history. Their physical characteristics are provisionally 32 dead and over 800 injured, fires and looting, against which even 10,000 troops of the National Guard were temporarily powerless. On the internal characteristics of the uprising, America tried to be clear now.
Even by staunch advocates of racial equality, the rebellion is unjustifiable. The black leader Martin Luther King condemned it in the strongest possible terms. But it will be important to find the motives that drove the colour of Los Angeles, to seek their salvation in the anarchy. Maybe it's only turmoil of a metropolitan mobs against the order of its environment. And yet one is must noted in fairness that legally achieved equality in practice is still not long realized.
The events of Los Angeles are a disappointing setback for all those who have dedicated their work for the peaceful elimination of racial discrimination. You will find it as bitter mockery that just a few days before President Johnson in Washington put his name on a historical document. It guarantees the same voting rights as the White the colour in the United States.

In the fight now she has struck again: the hour of the German voter who just a few weeks may check and balance, who was well suited to influence the policies of the next four years in Bonn. While the machinery of election propaganda quickly higher speeds, the party headquarters assure us quite credible that the leave for politicians was cancelled this year. The concern about Germany's future allows a few leisure hours away from the big gear.
More than ever, the campaign is under the dictation of the pollsters. But the forecasts are wavering. In addition, the Bonn strategists have made bonds when US election campaign practices. Choice pop advertise around the ear of the selector.
"Nice girls don't go with every man, with only one, the one you really love. Only with the one who can do something and not just talk. And he knows what girls want. He secures the place in the heart for him give no substitute. All keep the fingers crossed for him. all wish him luck by heart, everyone can trust it that he must defeat every heart, he is our best play."
No, no, the Willy is not so good and so we call to you, Ludwig is better, the Ludwig, the CDU is better, Willy is not so good, Ludwig, the CDU is better."

Over in East Berlin at the beginning of this report is a film permit. We got them for a visit in the East Berlin Pioneer Park "Ernst Thälmann".
Past the bronze pioneer salute, we entered the 120-hectare site. We saw sports stadiums. Open-air theatres, swimming lakes and club houses, built for the youth of East Berlin. And we discovered the holiday playgrounds, set up for children of the first to fourth school years. Older adolescents spend their holidays mostly in fixed pioneer camps.
The program of the holiday playground of Köpenick is versatile. It ranges from the usual children's games to occupations in the spirit of Lenin, who said: "only when we make to the education of young people, we can achieve, that a Communist society is created thanks to the efforts of the young generation." "Pioneers and student - attention - to report to the camp leader - the eyes to the Middle camp leader, I sign: field playground Köpenick is ready for the flag appeal."
"Thank you" "young pioneers and students for peace and socialism. Ready""ready""flinch"" today we want our ground game under the motto: freedom for Vietnam to perform. " -Young pioneers and student - attention - to the ground game to step away"stretched the children's play across large parts of the Ernst Thälmann Park, which will entertain folk formation of the Berlin Municipal Council by the Department with an annual 2 million Eastern marks. The children had to find a combat order reported by enemies in the area. We were told with the enemies of Fascists were meant.
After two hours of play, the final appeal took place on the holiday resort.
"I think that the ground game has made you today a lot of fun. Right""Yes""particularly pleased I've of course about the ninth school. She has picked up that many wounded. "But yet not fully succeeded, to arrest all enemies."
"The participation of the holiday games is voluntary. The parents of the students pay a fee of DM 1 for four weeks. Everything else is free. We perform also a political education here on our holiday playground. It serves the construction of socialism in our country and protect of our homeland. Above all, we also perform our holiday games, in solidarity with Vietnam."

Victory in the water the northern town of Itzehoe's confirmed: small-town audience is enthusiastic. 15,000 floating informed viewers stimulated the participants of services to some superior German swimming and jumping Championships. The Darmstadt team is among the Favorites in the men's 4 x 100 meters Medley Relay.
After 100 m back passes the Darmstädter Blechert on track 3 with slight backlog of Geppert breast swimming the 100 m for Darmstadt shiny split times are measured, as the Dolphin swimmers start. Künkel floats now for Darmstadt.
Of Kalami, the Olympian of Hans-Joachim Klein takes over as a length advantage. The measured times allow hopes for a record.
After the mark, small floats a lonely race against the clock. With 4 minutes and 14.8 seconds the timekeeper calculate a new DSV record.
200 m dolphin swims Werner Lotter, who holds the DSV record Friday against the Olympian Hermann. The bat makes visible the powerful movements of the Bremerhaven butterfly.
Friday WINS with 2 minutes and 13 seconds. This is new DSV record.
men's 100 m crawl. On track 4, Hans-Joachim Klein, swims surprisingly hard pressed by Wolfgang Kremer of food.
A bad turn prevents a new record. The time for small: 54.7.
We observe a mute dialogue between people who have courage, and others, who admire courage, with the title fights in the art - and diving.
The bat followed the crack of the favourite Ingeborg Busch. But it is only second. She is beaten by Michaela Kastner. It is a lonely moment, in which the diver choose deep abyss for the jump in the 10 m. The second-best score receives Klaus Konzorr.
German champion of high diver is Karl-Heinz Schwemmer. The young trained already on his shaft.
