East German State Increases Working Week
Berlin, Dec. 2.
The Communist-run East German state today tightened its trade ties with the Soviet bloe and in- creased the working week to 50 hours in key in- dustries to counter the Western economic blockade of the Russian Zone.
The Communist state signed a three-year Ertute prent with Czechoslovakia and announced that it would conclude parts with all the Iron Cur- Tal comoties, in an effort to make itself dent to imports from the West.
