This technique: the second tunnel under the Elbe when construction began, the first Chancellor stepped down with Kiesinger. When the shell was, went the second. As the third Chancellor in six years opened Helmut Schmidt of Hamburg's new Elbe tunnel with a shit from his hometown: ' so this was so at the time, 1967 or 68, as construction work on the tunnel put out were also Hein and Maris from Elmsbüttel appeared there in the Office building and who wanted to apply for the job. Yes, said the track Director then, but have also the necessary engineers and construction machinery? And Hein responded: "dat Plumb se sien man our concern, wi mokt that all eenfach. Hein starts op Maakenwerder in Övelgönne de Schnüffel on un ick here. And in the Middle, because dröpt wi us.'
'Yes, says sill then the track Director, which is quite nice, but how do that calculate now, that you meet really right in the middle?'
Seggt Maris: ' dat explore se you ok our concern sien, finally is dat nich our entrepreneurial risk. And if we really do not meet in the Middle do, tscha nothing can happen to you because have two tunnel.'
With a three liter glass came to Chancellor Schmidt and Hamburg's Mayor Klose on the future of the Super tube under the Elbe. -A century building, such as the Hanseatic League mean, undisputed but Europe's largest and longest underwater tunnel. For years, engineers from many countries had traveled to Hamburg, to learn how to operate the largest shield tunnelling machine in the world, and the six lanes need to record how you put together an underwater tunnel from the 130-metre concrete parts.
With a folk festival, Hamburg celebrated the completion. 600,000 hamburger followed the invitation of its Office of building and took this billion thing scrutiny - the first and the last time walking. The nearly 3 1/2 kilometre long tunnel cost half a billion marks, the total cost of the Western bypass, - this last section of the North-South highway - climbed to more than 1.2 billion. For it were not only hundreds of thousands of tons built concrete and steel, but also installed state of the art electronic technology. Before a wall of television with 48 monitors, the trained tunnel team wakes up around the clock. Controlled traffic flows, with television cameras and microphones, are largely automatically controlled by computer programs. At the South exit of the new motorway of the Hamburg free port with the köhlbrand bridge presents itself.
His test was the tunnel just after the opening. 200,000 motorists from all over northern Germany drew their their cars under the Elbe to test the last traffic link between Stockholm and Lisbon on its suitability.

This economy: Cytrel in smoke interviews with passers-by: ' why you actually smoke?'
' My body needs it. Well, sure it starts smoking, by you, you sit down with people together...'
' First it starts with the self affirmation, is quite clear. And because, with time, that is getting used to.'
'One could get used from there, if you wanted to, but I don't want to.'
' I go to the school, and since many smoke. For this reason, and sometimes I feel relieved as a result or something.'
' I'm 75 years old, those who have smoked, which still all live. The others have died already at the latest. No eye sees them again. I smoke 30 cigarettes as old sailor, that is knappsmässig a Bush, the others are all dead. Good bye!
... the press for the new year predicted the survivors: smoking with a better conscience. A Bremen company of the tobacco industry managed to defuse the popular herb. Explained to us how, the head of the research and Development Department: Dr. Lipp: ' main goal of tobacco research is the development of better cigarettes, the new smoke product Cytrel represents a crucial step forward in dieserRichtung, which was developed in America over the course of 17 years from natural raw materials. It contains no nicotine and supplies up to 90 percent less smoke condensate than tobacco. Its use was released to us from the Federal Ministry of health. Cytrel allows us, in combination with light aromatic tobaccos producing a cigarette that delivers yet full flavors with very low condensate and nicotine values.'
Travel reports about South America's 16th century it was mentioned for the first time - the cigarette. For centuries it was shot with the hand. Today is a fabrication, as for example in this, possible over 160 year old tobacco companies only with fully automatic machines. Because it arrives at the mass on measured in milligrams and hundredths of a millimetre. The new light smoke product Cytrel is added to metered the chosen tobacco varieties on the grams.
An endless cellulose-acetate strand - arises out of it now the filter. The little white mouth piece has sparked a global revolution in the cigarette industry. The elaborate production of filter cigarettes had to be increased everywhere. In Germany, they have a market share of 85 percent. Every fourth cigarette is machine in the smoke. The endless cigarette manufacturing concludes. This machine spits out 3,000 cigarettes per minute. -A place for chain smokers.
The wonder - much blue haze, the non-smoking remains purely technically. This show: Liza in Hamburg with their film ' Cabaret' she had entranced millions with us. Now she showed up their German fans flesh: Liza Minelli, world top star of the year, strumming turned up with her trademark - the artificial eyelashes, as she was looking for the animal warmth of the crowd at the Hamburg Airport. Because Liza blossoms - as you know - only then, when your connection to the audience is short. Liza - the success become contradiction: sweaty show athlete who signaled with a floral pillow vulnerability and vulnerability. She cut 150,000 DM per night for their exalted show from hysteria and melancholy in the Hollywood spirit of the 1930s.
' Meet the press' - were we playing with German reporters, to warm up for the ring battle with the audience. The chubby sparkler sprayed Sparks, who skipped even on hardened press professionals. One wanted to know whether she had a normal childhood with her mother rushing from success to success of Judy Garland's daughter.
' Surely not, for this we have travelled too much. But I had a very nice youth, and even today, I enjoy my life very!
What do you think of the year of the woman?'
Liza does not quite understand, but then she thinks: ' look at me, I'm a woman, and what for one!
