ALL QUIET IN BERLIN AS COMMUNIST MARCH ENDS WITHOUT INCIDENT

Berlin, May 28..

East Germany's Communist leaders today marched half a million youths through the streets of East Berlin in the mightiest ideological demons- tration in Berlin since Hitler. Its theme was "hate the West.”

The march lasted nearly eight hours, from 9,15 a.m. German Time, to 5 p.m. It was a peace- ful march. The widely heralded Communist "storming of all Berlin" failed to come off. The borders of Alliod occupied West Berlin re- mained inviolate. They were guarded by 13,000 Gorman police with about 10,000 Allied occupation troops confined to barracks on the alert to back them up in case of trouble. Hour after hour, through pour-, portraits of Stalin and the real ing rain and intermittent sun- ille figures of East Germany's shine, the youths marched in Communist lenders. miles long columns of blue.

They marched down the famed Unter Den Linden-where once marched the victorious urmy le- gions of Hitler and the youngs- ters of the Hitler Jugend.
