John Bull Feeds
War Prisoners On
Two Dollars a Week

Correspondence Of The Associated Press)
Douglas, Isle of Man, Jan. As
an experiment in communal feeding
the British governments camp for
war prisoners at Knockaloe is the
biggest and most successful thing Of
its kind ever attempted in the British
Isles. Here $4,000 prisoners are
housed and fed at a figure which av-
erages only 81 per man, per week.
The capital cost OF the camp. which
was built OH farm land in the north
of the Isle of Man, was $l.250,000
This figure covers the building of all
the barracks and administrative Of
fees, kitchens, streets, sewage, water
and electricity plants, telephones and
all the other essentials of modern
city. On a basis Of population OF
$4,000 the cost of building this prison
camp City figures out at about $50 for
each inhabitant.
The question OF food as related to
health has been prime consideration
with the British officials from the
start. Our dietary" explained the
commandant. has been constantly OBJ
served and studied scientifically by a
staff of medical men, who from time
to time make such changes as expe-
rience dictates. The cooking is all
done by the men themselves, and the
excellent results they achieve are not
to be wondered at when it is remem-
bered that they have among them
some of the finest chefs of the big
German hotels and restaurants. At
one time their table was so much su-
perior to the English officers mess
that the officers discharged their Eng
fish cook and requisitioned one of the
prisoners, who has been in charge OF
their kitchen ever since"
The health of the prisoners bears
testimony to the adequacy of the food
provided. In this improvised town
of $4,000 inhabitants, there have been
only seventy deaths in two years--a
year death rate of less than is per
This compares with a
death rate in all England of 1873 or
in the United States of about AL.
