- <p> ANOTHER WALL?
- </p>
- <p> Two million unemployed Germans are understandably concerned
- because their country has become a powerful magnet for
- foreigners seeking asylum. The number of refugees streaming in--and looking for work--rose a record 71% last year, to
- 440,000. Now there's a proposed solution: a high-tech
- incarnation of Berlin's infamous Wall. Intended to control
- immigration from Poland and the former Czechoslovakia, the
- "electronic wall" (as critics now call it) will consist of
- mobile radar and infrared units similar to those used in other
- Western countries. Testing begins next month.
