"We have a lot of great ideas." Antonacci, said she wants to increase the effectiveness of the groups' six committees which address various issues such as hous ing, business and publicity. "We (need) . . . to see what's going on and what needs to be done," she said. While Barlett wants to increase the organization's presence, she also said she wants to strengthen the groups' image among its members.

Associated Press Writer LEIPZIG, Germany More than 70,000 people gathered in east German cities last night in demonstrations har kening back to pro-democracy protests of 1989. But this time they were demanding an end to their economic misery. Protests against communism helped bring freedom to East Germany, not prosperity, said those who marched in this city considered the birthplace of the East German revolution. "Misery. Our lives are misery. We stood here in the fall of 1989 to put down a dictator and now we are in another kind of dictatorship," said Claus Paet zold in Leipzig. "We are victims so that people can live better in the West," said Paetzold, a chemical factory worker. Rally organizers said between 50,000 and 60,000 people gathered for the Leip zig protest. ut an A DON'T GAMBLE • y WITH YOUR PRINTING Kind printing Full service printing from quick xerox copies to one and two color offset printing 1305 W.

All the protests were reportedly peaceful. The demonstrators were reviving a series of Monday night protests, first begun in Leipzig, which - helped over throw the east's hard-line government and pave the way toward reunification. This time, demonstrators were demanding that Bonn take swift steps to stop eastern Germany's dramatic economic slide. They vowed to continue the revived protests each Monday until the troubled regional economy improves. In central Leipzig, several hundred people attended a prayer service at the Nikolai Church where Monday dem onstrations began in earnest in Septem ber 1989.

People in eastern Germany are becoming restless as their living stan dards drop and they lose their jobs, while the better times promised by pol iticians from western Germany show no sign of arriving. Manfred Fasthof, a Leipzig worker, wonders what he will do if he loses his job. "Unemployment benefits are low. Rents are rising. I don't know what I am going to do, but at least by going out on the street I can show how I feel," he said. The demonstrators hope to mobilize enough people to show Bonn that more must be done to help the east catch up with the affluent west of Germany. "If there are mass demonstrations, maybe they will hear us in Bonn," said Paetzold.
