BONN —
Police searched the Bonn headquarters of West Germany’s radical Greens party Saturday and found illegal leaflets advocating the disruption of a national census that starts May 25, a police spokesman said.
He said the public prosecutor ordered the search after leaflets appeared in Bonn headed, “Only Sheep Are Counted.”
The leaflets advised citizens to send back census forms after detaching an identification number. Without the number, the authorities will not know to whom the forms refer.
