BERLIN, Mar. 20.—(AP)—The country home of Prof. Albert Einstein at Caputh, near Berlin, was searched for arms and ammunition today by police and a detachment of national socialists.

The searchers found nothing. There had been rumors that arms were stored in the house, and this led to the action.

Professor Einstein is en route to Switzerland from the United States. Before sailing from New York he said he would not return to Germany so long as the present situation in Germany remains unchanged.
