feat, but show no particular hate and
declare they are hopeful of a perma.
nent peace.
Thousands of ernaciated, underfed
and poorly clothed prisoners
French, British, Russian, Italian and
Rumanian-are returning from LOr-
1aine prison camps. They say the
Boches suddenly began to wave red
flags and started all the prisoners
toward France in groups. Guards
disappeared and civilians fed and
guided the refugees.
A unit OF Bavarians guarding one
camp threw down it's arms when a
republic was declared, freeing
numbers of prisoners before the
armistice was signed.
French, British and Americans
hastily established relief centers to
feed, lodge, clothe and battle the
refugees. Doctors and nurses pro-
vided medical attention for long neg
lected prisoners.
The prisoners toll how the Alsa-
tians and Lorrainers are enthusiast
