Shipyard Strikers' Threat
Protest Marches Through Hamburg
Hamburg, Aug. 25.
Striking German shipyard workers tonight threatened protest marches through the heart of Hamburg after the management of the Howaldt Werke shipyards announced they were dismissing their total labour force of 9,000 workers who downed tools yesterday in a "wildcat strike.”
The strike committee said it would make every effort to spread the strike movement to all West German shipyards.

Washington, Aug. 25.
The Mutual Security Administration (MSA) reported today that the NATO community was greatly strengthened in the first half of 1955 by ratification of the treaties bringing Germany into the Atlantic family of free nations.
In its final semi-annual report to the Congress, MSA said: "The addition of Germany to the Atlantic community on a basis of full and equal partnership was a most important event not only because it makes possible a more powerful NATO deterrent force; but
