Blaze and White succeed In liberating

3. Bonds of the second issue

Germans Not 0Verfed.

The Fgu3 AdiniDisua<F,n = asueS
the following:
The treatment of interned Ger
mans in the United States is now
being used by German propagan.
dists in an effort to create unrest
and dissatisfaction among the
American people. Through their
insidious system of grapevine
pu blicity. they are endeavoring to
create the impression that the in
termed Germans are being fed on
the fat of the land that while the
American people are being asked to
save wheat, the German prisoners
are being prodigally fed on bread,
pastries, and cakes made entirely of
wheat. Their campaign has been
directed largely to the rural dis
trlcts, and in some sections has
aroused more or less dissatisfaction
The Food Administration has
officially denied the truth of such
rumors. The Germans interned in
American detention camps are be-
ing we'll fed, but there is absolutely
n o ground for a rumor that food is
being wasted, or that conservation
is not being practiced. All civilian
G erman prisoners are subjet to, and
ar being made to observe, all rules
and regulations of the Food Ad-
ministration. Their per capita con-
sumption of wheat is held to with
in l 1-2 pounds pounds per week
No commodity is wasted, although
consumption has not been, and will
not be, reduced to a point that
would threaten the health of the
m en- and the women held at the de-
tention camps.
The military prisoners-prisoners
of war-receive the regular garrison
ration of the United States Army
This is according to The Hague Con.
vention. The same requirement ap.
plies to all other nations. American
and allied prisoners in Germany
must receive the garrison ration OF
the German Army.
