WARS GREAT HORROR
Prisoners in Germany Don't Even

(By Carl w. Ackerman.0

(By Carl w. Ackerman.)
Dowberitz, Prison Camp, Germany,
May 2O.-Germany has 5000 English,
Russian, French and Belgian soldiers
imprisoned here now. And the two
questions 1 was asked by the men with
whom 1 talked as 1 tramped over this
great camp were:
when will the war end ?" and
WAS Jack johnson whipped at Ha-
vana?"
The end of the war, which means
freedom for them, and events in the
field of sport are the only two things
that interest these prisoners now. They
have almost ceased to care which side
may be victorious They are no long
er interested in the progress of the
war They want it to be over so they
may return home.
In their lighter moods they want to
know what is happening in the world
of sport. When / was here they had
not heard of Johnson's defeat and
those who heard it could not wait to
pass the good news around.
