BRUTALITY
Continued from Pace One)

there are reports from many independent
witnesses concerning the way the Italian
prisoners were treated. 1t is stated that
the prisoners were marched all the way
from Italy with no other food than bread.
They also were knocked about and starv-
ed and otherwise treated with inhuman-
ity. English prisoners gave them their
German ratons.
One witness said that three or four
weeks before he left D,lmen two or three
hundred Italian prisoners arrived there.
All of them were virtually starved. II
saw a German sentry draw his bayonet
against these men and beat them" said
this witness.
In cassel II was reported, the Italians
are treated worse than the British. being
pushed about or struck by German cor
porals.
At Mannheim the same brutality Ia reg
ularly practiced. One witness said the
Italians travelled - days on three issues
Of soup. Tie Italians rushed madiy for
the food and some Of them were bayo-
netted. The Germans, tnaS report said,
We're giving them only half rations.
At Munster. il was testified, the beha-
vior Of the Germans to the Italians had
become much worse Since the recent
large capture of Italians. The prisoners
suffered very much from the cold and
We're wrapping themselves in blankets
whenever they could. This bad conduct
and bullying on the part of the Germans
set in only recently One witness said
he saw Italians knocked down frequently
and also hit with the butt end of rites
This treatment was not due particularly
T. bad conduct on the part Of the prison
crS, but simply because they were Ital-
ians. These men have one ration Of soup
and bread daily.
