Officials say the removal will cause an industrial catastrophe. They introdueed a drastic power-sav.ing scheme of total electricity cuts for each third of the city in turn from 7 a.m. to l'O
p.m. a day- nntil coal being rushed in special trains from the Ruhr reaches Hamburg. The power blackout affects British messes and hotels without their own generators. A sudden free2e-up blocking British zone wateiavays and freezing coal in wagons caused a crisis which officials hope to brealq within a week.
