AMERICAN PRISONERS
NOT SYSTEMATICALLY
ABUSED IN GERMANY

tHY MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED WIRE &
Washington, Sept. 27-While the
German government failed to live up
to agreements concerning housing and
care of American prisoners of war,
their treatment was merciful on the
whole and there was no systematic
abuse, according to a statement by
Carl F. bennett of Boston, Red Cross
commissioner for prisoners welfare
during the war.
Mr.. bennett sad there were $500
American prisoners in German hands.
In the early months OF American par
ticipation there was considerable NAL
treatment in passing through Ger
many, and in some cases the men
were robbed of shoes and clothing
and the first food parcels sent them
were often stolen, he added.
Finally a special supply system was
built up in Switzerland and each
American soldier prisoner was sent
twenty pounds of food weekly. This
evidence of plentiful supplies for
Americans had a respect-compelling
effect on the German population, the
report states.
The report declares that without
food, clothing and facilities for recre-
alton and amusement supplied from
their own country. American prisoners
would have faced starvation and suf-
fering.
