Some uncertainty about enough wood at first, but I saw one truckload at any rate going in yesterday. The real disgrace are the toilets. We wrote about there being two little bath houses for each 250 persons, one for men, one for women. No privacy, little human decency. The guards are ordered to shoot anyone who approaches within twenty feet of the fences.
Partitions are seven feet high, leaving a four-foot opening above.
The rooms aren't too bad, almost fit to live in for a short while. Letter dated May 28, 1942. Elizabeth Bayley Willis Papers. Manuscripts and University Archives, UW Libraries. Nearly every night the man who sleeps in the next room snores.
