International Scene
Continued from page 4
is getting sorted out, other
“Volksdeutschen” are showing
up. The biggest increase is from
Poland. In 198627,188came across
in 1987 no less than 40,000 have
returned. Again the number of
ethnic Germans in Poland is rather
large: one million is a reliable
number.
The Polish Germans, living
much closer to Germany and not
having quite as strict a govern
ment when it comes to foreign
travel, do not even wait, on many
occasions, for the necessary per
mission to move. They simply
delcare that they are going on a
foreign holiday, jump in their car
and drive right through to West
Germany. Once they get there, the
first stop is the reception camp at
Friedland in the province of Lower
Saxony.
Whenthey getthere, they are
likely to meet fellow ethnic Ger
mans from Russia and from
Roumania as well since this latter
country also has a sizeable German
minority, many of whom wantto
get out. Last year about 12,000
came from this third group and
there is even the story that the
West German government has
agreed to pay the Roumanians
about $7,000 for each ethnic
German that is allowed to leave.
This would not be the first time that
Bonn has done such a thing but the
Roumanian government needs all
the hard currency it can get.
The new life in West Germany is
not as easy as might be expected.
Right now the rate of unemploy
ment is about the same as it is in
Canada which means that work is
not easy to come by. In addition the
life style is different from anything
they have ever known, not to
mention the form of government.
Some of the children speak little if
any German and thus find it
difficult to make new friends.
However, judging from the
numbers coming, life in the west is
still preferable to life in the East.
