E. Germans demand security at West's missions be tighter

East Germany is demanding tighter security at all West German missions in the East bloc as the price of freedom for 140 East Germans holed up Bonn's embassy in Prague, a West German newspaper said Tuesday. The Bild Zeitung said the East German government has demanded that the West Germans build tiny visitors' reception rooms at diplomatic missions in communist countries to prevent large-scale invasions of embassy buildings by refugees.
