Summer Festival on the Rhine: the Chancellor had invited.
With the gag of a masked Extras, the Prime Minister opened the traditional summer festival of the German Chancellor.
"All fake" was the show for 1,500 guests.
And a cheerful Helmut Schmidt referred the doppelganger in the background of the stage setting, because he said Bonn, already full of surprises.
For the metropolis on the Rhine the Chancellor was a pleasant interruption of political everyday life. The once sleepy electoral residence, whose Fassaden announce, from the Central Rhenish Baroque splendor faded in recent weeks again in the spotlight of an active policy of securing the peace and global cooperation. Before the Bundestag, the Chancellor had underlined this policy in his Government statement of May 1974: "our friends and neighbors, our Alliance - and contractors in the world should know that our foreign and security policy positions remain unchanged", the Chancellor said.
"We are actively involved as in the past, to obtain the necessary peace balance of forces."
In these weeks, the Villa Hammerschmidt, seat of the President, and the Palais Schaumburg Castle, residence of the Chancellor, became centres of world-wide political activity.

These events are carefully registered by the international press. About 500 domestic and foreign correspondents work almost around the clock, to continuously and critically analyze the Bonn politics. Regular press conferences provide the background material the journalists with the spokesman of the Government.
A visit of the U.S. Secretary of State in Bonn is always undivided interest of the world press. Henry Kissinger met with Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and Foreign Ministers Genscher to a current political discussion. In the garden of the Chancellor's bungalow, they reaffirmed their agreement on the major global issues.
Then, the policy had break.
At the summer festival in the Bonn theater, also Helmut Schmidt for A few hours forgot his political troubles. Europe's biggest lignite mining area is located in the West of the Federal Republic between Cologne and Aachen. Seen from the air it looks like a lunar landscape at times.
Here every year - over 100 million tonnes of brown coal promoted by huge bucket-wheel excavators, who snatch the ground the energy sources are important for the power supply of the Federal Republic.
43 villages with 18,000 residents were replaced by the excavators and were rebuilt elsewhere.
But for more than two decades, the destroyed landscape on a grand scale will be recultivated.
The withdrawal machines in action occur directly after the coal mining. Fill the huge "holes" of mining overburden amounts.
Then follows a metre-thick layer of nutrient-rich "Löß" as the basis for the "restoration" of the landscape.
More than 65 million plants were brought out so far. Thus was born a new landscape - man-made - land, settlements and recreation areas. There are not these lakes with adjacent dense forests without Brown coal mining. They offer multiple recreational opportunities for the residents of the nearby metropolitan areas of Cologne and Bonn.
The successful reclamation of the Rhenish lignite district has found international recognition - as an example that you can use natural resources without destroying nature.

Lübeck as a spiritual way of life, to Thomas Mann, citizen and writer has become known throughout of his life, even in the distant American exile.

The adolescents loved music and poetry. From his mother he inherited the gift, applicable to tell.
At the age of 25, he wrote his first novel - the masterpiece of "Buddenbrooks".
"Lifelong friendship with his brother Henry."
Return from the emigration and awarding of honorary citizenship in Lübeck. For Thomas Mann a moving moment, going to the "Buddenbrooks"-House.
About Germany and its future, he said at the time: "I to you spoke of Europe and of Germany, of a United Europe with a reunified Germany in its midst. "A Germany that has the idea of a German Europe is run, but the idea is a European Germany."
, So he confessed once, he was always Lübeck itself, where he went. The poet of the "Magic Mountain" and the "Felix Krull", the last great Narrator of an epoch of civic culture, wore the image of their streets and gabled end of his.
