the rooms matched any fortress.
The huge walls were made from spe-

Berlin residents said Goebbels and

The underground city stretched
beneath all the streets, boulevards,

In house at No. SO Charlotten-
strausse, Soviet correspondent
rummaging in the debris found a
narrow passageway below the sur
face of the ruins. 1t led to an enor-
nous underground structure with
massive doors and electric irstalla-
tions. The luxurious furniture,
clothes and linen littering the floors
of the rooms indicated an influential
family had lived there.
In other subterranean dwellings
the correspondent found large fam
lilies huddled in corners beneath
dim kerosene lamps. They had lived
there like moles since 1912.
From one such dwelling a narrow
corridor led to a steel door, and
behind that was a hand grenade
factory, where women and children
worked, the dispatch said.
Another miniature city lay under
the ruins of the main Gestapo build
ing. Innocent-looking sewer covers
concealed the entrance to an elab-

Meeting more munitions factories

Steel columns supported a con-

with shells, incendiary explosives,

The dead were taken directly to
the crematorium. The living were
forced down 13-foot shaft, stran-

and then fed to the ovens.
There were two batteries of three

said. He said the committee saw
a truckload of so bodies, with about
25 additional bodies near it, stand

The Nordhausen camp, Barkley
said, was a combination factory and
starvation center. Slave laborers
were Systematically starved to
death, meanwhile being forced to
work long hours at an underground
factory which produced vi and
W. bombs, airplane engines and
munitions.

The Dachau gas chamber, he re-
ported could dispose of about 100

shot after being forced to kneel at

Poles. He said the committee was
of the opinion that a colossal

those in occupied countries who re-
fused to accept the principles of
naziism, or who opposed the sad
ding of the Nazi yoke on their

The number of prisoners and

mated to run between 100000 and
20,000,000. Principle classes i'm

While in Washington, Harrigan
also did a lot of Wcrk on the flax
seed differential desired by valley
growers. Valley growers want a
25 cent differential over the seed
grown in the Pacific northwest be-
cause valley flax contains two
pounds more oil per bushel. In the
past the valley enjoyed this twenty
five cent differential but it now is
cnly 20 cents due 10 an authorized
increase for Pacific northwest flax
seed. There will be a hearing on
the valley request soon at which
