then beaten senseless with black
jacks by sergeants."
Rsyzelewski described one case of
a colored soldier who was caught en-
tering the kitchen at night to try
and get some food. The prisoners
were so hungry. he declared. that
they begged for food from the Chin
ese collies on the roads. The negro
was beaten unconscious with black
jacks by three sergeants. After
ward he was put in solitary confine-
ment, where his hair was burned on
his head and he was fogged on the
soles of the feet with sticks to try
and make him tell the name or q
supposed accomplish.
Ryszelewski also described a pun
ishment inflicted on other men, who,
he said, were first handcuffed and
then seated with their hands on their
knees, and a stick passed under their
hooks. They were put in the court
yard and fed on bread and water.
Other men were taken out Of their
cells at midnight in the middle of
winter and scrubbed with mud, he
asserted. for the crime" of smok-
Ing.

some weeks. Colonel Maui was ap-
pointed commandant. Ryszelewski
said Col. Maui addressed the men on
his arrival and promised them that
III a man did right" he would be
treated well.
On the strength Of this promise
Ryszelewski wrot an article describe
ing conditions. which he entitled
THE School for Bolshevism" and
handed it to the Commandant. He
said that the next day he was
brought before him and sentenced to
three months solitary confinement,
during one month of which he was
hand-cuffed.
There was no change in condi-
tions under Colonel Maul's admin
istration, the witness testified. The
hearing was closed with Ryszelew-
skis testimony. The committee will
hold a hearing tomorrow on other
phases of the investigation into the
conduct Of the army and will sail
for Europe within a few days to

Continuing, Colonel Grinstead said:
Lieutenant Smith had a most difficult
task, arising from congestion that we
wers not able to relieve for some time.
