for use towards the end of 19549 This estimate, i.e., "end of
1943", is contingent upon the completion of the canal. The
canal is scheduled to be completed in its full width and depth
except for the entrance and exit, which will have a 6-meter
depth and a 60-meter width, by 1 May 1954.,
this plan cannot be met by I May 1954, the probable
condition of the various objects at the end of 1954 is described
below.
a. By the end of 19541the opening of the canal would allow
larger merchant vessels to reach the natural roadatead
"Grosser Jasmunder Bodden" (average depth 0 6.50 meters
"u.M.IL").
In case the "cold war" politics developed into a war,
transports could find refuge here on their route to Wismar,
Rostock and other ports. Antiaircraft guns and fighter
protection could be established comparatively easily on the
island.
Construction of the air field installations is scheduled to
commence in the autumn of 1953.
b. By the end of 1954,, construction of the eastern role with the
oil harbor basin in the outer harbor should have progressed
to a stage where eiall tankers could discharge oil and small
naval units could fuel. Completion of the entire outer harbor
will not be possible prior to 1957. Construction of the oil
storage will commence in 1953 and work will be hastened with
all means, Therefore, the installations required for a
makeshift operation will be ready by the end of 1954.
c. The so-called fishing harbor to the east of the canal exit
will be commenced in 1953. The 5,000,000 Ost Marks for this
prOject,late already-beet made'avallable. Due-to the - !
agglomerationofaeXcavation work during 1953,-suffiaient
excavating aid dredgitg equipment was not available fer_a
larger construction goal for this particular project.
At least 20,000,000 Gst Marks will be included in the Budget
plan for 1954 toward the completion of the first stage,
construction in the fishing harbor. It is believed that by
the end of 1954 several hundred running meters of modern
pier installations will be available for vessels up to
6-meters draft. At that time transshipment (troops,
equipment, supplies, etc) can be readily effected since the
government railroad has already commenced with the con-
struction of a normal gauge railroad line via Sagard to the
north.
d. In the budget for 1953, 6,000,000 Gst Marks have been made
available for the construction of roads and tracks. A
similar amount will have to be made available during 1954.
Should the problem of obtaining tracks be solved, the following
connections will eXist by the end of 1954.
(1) 'Normal gauge railroad line from Bergen via Trent and
the bridge (today the Wittow ferry) to Arkona. The
bridge is to be constructed during the years 1953-1954.
(2) Connection to the southern tip of the Bug peninsula.

(3) Connection to Glowe and the ferry at the southern part
of the canal.
(4) Connection of the ferry, the fishing harbor, the eastern
mole and the oil depot to the new railroad line north
6f Sagard.
The above traffic prerequisitions are necessary for the
construction of the following projeotss
Heavy gun batteries near Cape Arkona;
Heavy gun batteries on the northernfpromontaryie
Hiddenseeg
Heavy gun batteries near Stubbenkammer;
Harbor construction at the southern promontory of the
Bug pinensulag
Seaplane base Bug
Temporary Storage west of Glows; and
Ordnance and main equipment depot in the Gingsterheide.
e. It is already planned that in 1955 Work will be started
on the main ammunition depot nearldetzow. The project
will be completed by the end of 1954 to such an extent that
ammunition can be stored here for supplying vessels in the
fishing harbor.
f. For the year 1953, 12,5000000 Ost Marks have been made available
for the construction of 600 apartments near Sagard. While it
is intended to perform only design and other preparatory
work for the shipyard project in 1953, construction of the
apartments is to be speeded up to house the construction laborers
who will be involved in this project as of 1954. It is
designed to accomiodate 10 persons in each apartment i.e., about
5,000 persons in total.
5. It will be possible to complete the above mentioned projects by the
end of 1954.
6. Recruiting of labor offered no particular difficulty at the
time of my departure. By the middle of January 1953 about
3,600 personnel were employed at the construction site. These
included
a. 1,500 civilian workers - housed in newly constructed quarters.
b. 750 oivilian workers - commuting daily by railroad or in trucks.
co 1,000 penal laborers with
350 guard personnel - housed in a new camp.
. 7. In the summer of 1953 the camps will be expanded to house an additional
1,000 civilian workers and 2,000 penal laborers. Since the temporary
buildings were for the most part already available at the construction
site, about 7,000 workers will be made available by the suimer of 1953.
However, great difficulties were soon encountered in filling the leading
technical positions. It will be very difficult to obtain a sufficient
number of highly trained technical personnel.
8. In 1953 many plants and shipyards will supply small and large
instruments to the Bau Union North. The construction site will
be sufficiently supplied with equipment although the delivery

difficulty is encountered, other plants will have to relinquish
equipment as did the government railroad and the lignite mines, which 25X1
were obliged to hand over heavy duty freight cars (for railroad tracks
and other goods). If required, some equipment will also be made availabkN,

9. No decisive difficulty is expected in the procurement of the necessary
heavy equipment, The General -Management Shipping has already received
the order and has been allottea.funds for projecting the dredging and
for the construction of dredges-, scourers,: lighters, tugs, ett, by
various shipyards With regard to the Construction materiall the requirements
for the years 1953 and 1954 will in general be Available, The mole
construction is possible since a type of construction was developed
Wherein no steel sheet piling is required, The requirement for round
steel is small A factory in Frankfurt/Oder is slated to supply cement.
No diffictlties are expected here. Only the tracks which are required,
will not be available from new production. If necessary, the tracks 25X1
will be dismantled from existing railroad lines.'

West. Side
The 1953 construction program includes the completion of
the western shore wall to the 5-meter water line. The
shore-end of the mole will be constructed monolithic
to the 1-meter water line. The other part will be
built in the block-typet construction, various Cement
block shapes with the same weight 4- 55 tons,
The cement block factory is under construction; movable
installation rigs (cranes) are under construction in the
Abus plant and will be readjfor operation in April 1953.
The actual western Mole will have a width of about 16
meters and about 450 meters in length. The same
types of cement blocks as used in the shore extension
and reinforcement construction will be used both on
the seaward and the shoreside of the mole. The mole
will be strengthened by reinforced concrete partitions

(C) which shows cross section mole construction.7
The lifting devices developed for the shore reinforcement
construction are not suitable for the mole construction.
Therefore,. a 60-ton portal jib crane for the block setting
is under construction.
Since .teel sheet pilings are not available, the shore
embankments of the harbor installations will also be
built in cement block construction system. With
exception of the mole heads, no technical construction or
material difficulties will be encountered.
The construction program for 1953 includes also the
construction harbor (Bauhafen) which will be used for
berthing dredges, tubs, etc. Other installations in
the western section will be projectedat a later date.
The soil required for filling the mole and built-up
areas in the outer harbor will be Obtained with ordinaty
and auction-type dredges. Part of the soil excavated
from the canal will also be used.
When the outer harbor project was planned the Soviets
demanded that two berths for large vessels be included.
They wereto be 200 meters long with a draft of 12 meters.
The facilities at these berths were to permit very quick
transshipment of all possible goods. A birds-eye view
of the mole shows the following-transport facilities:
Ubpring quay (mooring rings, ladders, etc.)

soil cannot be washed away but will be dumped at sea,
Fuel Harbors (east part)
The east part takes priority over the west part because 1)
-the fuel harbor is needed and 2) the eastern mole protects
the entrance against eastwinds and ice while the Arkona
peninsula offers protection in the northwest.
All mooring places will be equipped with facilities for
discharging and receiving oil. Aircraft gasoline can
be transshipped from tank cars The fuel harbors will
be equipped with all necessary: fire prOtection devices.
Canal [also see Enclosure (E) 7
_
Excavation work began on 1 January 1953. Except for small
finishing jobs, the canal isOUpposedfl to be completed on
I May 1954, A total of 5,700M0 cubic meters of soil
will be moved. However, feel that in spite of all
efforts, the canal construction will not be completed
until autumn-winter of 1954. The entrance from the north
and exit to the south will be dredged to only 6 meters
in the first stage of construction. nothertIncrease of
the canal depth will be necessary only at a time when the
shipyard installations in the Bodden are completed. The
chalk and clay earth formation here makes it definitely
possible to carry on dry excavation with the use of pumps.
The existing highway (Sagard - Altenkirchen) will be cut
by the canal east of Glowe,- A structure to channel
electrical, telephone and other cables underneath the
canal will be erected at this location.
Point 3 Ferry Grossing .falso see Enclosure (D)7
It
is technically impossible to establish the ferries in
the 'OktiniV of the .highwayi therefore they are slated to
croaa the canal near the southern exit. It is planned
that two ferries, one railroad ferrycapable of carrying
two railroad cars of the largest tyPeand one vehicle

of the canal exit will serve as a bSeb for the ferries.
All ferries and ferry docks will be constructed in a manner
permitting the interchange of the ferries on all ferry
routes on Ruegen Island.

Arkona (Kap Arkona), and Stubbenkammer B and C respectively on Part

performed by Soviet Navy and Army construction battalions. Soviet troops
have been quartered tear Cape Arkona since the summer of 1952.
25X1 12. L Comments; rithis report gives only a general 25X1
overall picture of the construction plans for Ruegen Island with particular
emphasis, however, on the projects which haVre been planned for the next feta
Years. In subsequent reports,. there will be presented complete data on the
considerations affecting the overall planning for Ruegen, together with
full information on the cost and details of each project.
Inspite of the fact tha-t this entire undertaking is receiving priority
treatment, it appears that Ruegen will be of little value as as operational
base before the fall of 1954. From then on, however, "Ruegenhafenn will
rapidly gain in importance. The source of this report believes that by
1957 the project Will be sufficiently advanced in operational capabilities
to permit, for example., extensive troop movements and other transshipment
activities in one night of sufficient scope lo mount an .amphibious operation
for landing in West Germany or Scandinavia.

Apparently the USSR does not count on the possibility of an imminent and
peaceful unification of Germany, for it can hardly be though that the USSR
would permit this "Malta" of the Baltic to be controlled by any other nation.
In this connection it is interesting that source states that many East Germans
worked with great zeal for the Ruagen project because they believed that some
day it would belong to Germany_s7
