Life Revived
in Gernan
HorrorCa

BELSEN CONCENTRATION
CAMU, Germany, April "a -
Up Life was beginning to ov-
ertake death here today - but
only just beginning.
The burial pits were still re-
ceiving their mounds of name
less dead, but by the hundreds
now instead of thousands.
Yesterday approximately l.
600 persons were buried. It was
the first day since the British
entered the camp a week ago
that burials left the stock of
corpses smaller at the end of a
day.
However, authorities estimat-
ed that between 800 and 400
persons still are dying daily
from the effects of starvation
deliberately imposed upon them
by the SIS. They estimate the
population was $4,000 when
they took it over and that it is
now $4,000, but admit this fig
ure is a very rough estimate.
Nevertheless, progress is be-
ing made and the camp, which
leading German citizens are be-
ing forced to inspect, is today
almost a pleasure garden COM
pared to the horror of five days
ago.
1t is still not possible to walk
SO yards without seeing dead
ard dying and you still can not
escape the stencil of burning
rags and rotting flesh and the
evil smell of sickness. But long
huts and the earth around them,
once covered with corpses and
filthy rags and an unimaginable
collection of trash, have been
swept clean. Several hundred
children and sick adults are be-
ing moved by doctors to pleas
ant quarters in Camp Number
2, formerly a military barracks
constructed of brick and con-
crete with red tile roofs. The
buildings are set in lawns sur
rounded by trees.
About 1000 Frenchmen who
had been held here are leaving
t day in so trucks for home.

The Japs were in a shelter
formed by an overturned tree.
Marine patrols passed within
rock-throwing distance, but the
enemy stayed quietly out of
sight, emerging only at night
for food and water.
Then one day member of a
Marine patrol heard a noise. The

at the Bowl o. Drome. We
watched the spry. eroy-hoired
veteran of the alleys bowl seven
games for a 169 average per
game with lao low game
and a 1913 high and we'll
back him against the state of
Michigan in the 69-year-old
class. Any takers?
Fred, who lives out on Utica
road north of Cady's corners
road north of Cady's Cor
ners and has lived there
for about 20 years Is not
very talkative about himself. In
fact, we had to egg him on to
throw out the challenge we have
just announced.
He was formerly a moulder
In . Detroit factory and a
number of years ago retired
to take up market-gardening.
He tapered off on this and
settled for a fairly-easy life Of
raising . few vegetables and
market-gardening.
He Is known to bowlers
throughout the East Side as
dad" Marquardt. He was born
in Germany and has lived in
this country most of his life
and his wife Mary often
comes to watch his bowling
practises. He proudly wears the
lapel pin of a Spanish American
War veteran SO don't mis-.
Judge the fact that he was born
dn Germany. AS Fred points out
q lot of blood has flowed
under the bridge since that
time.
The highest game he ever
bowlel (and mark this, you
69-year- olders), was 256
and he did that three times.
Most Of his play Is in
the Marquardt League (nam-
ed In his honor) at Crosse
Pointe, where his partner Is
his son, Edward, age As
just . mere boy! One Of
Fred's proudest contributions
to the sport he loves is a hand

Gus different woods are used,

Mosquitoes attacked shipping

Flood Cause Needs Investigation

The area along Market street between Polk and Lincoln
avenues was subjected to another deep overflow during the
heaVy rains OF last Friday and once more residents of that
area were virtually marooned for some time, traffic halted
automobiles drowned out vital work relating to the war eff
fort interrupted and damage of various sorts done. This is
but one of the many times that the same condition has pre-
vailed IN this area, and investigation of the condition last
week showed little hope for any relief.
Blame for the condition dates back 10 the contract;pg
firm and inspectors in charge of building the first navy
houses here IN l94l, and cause of it constitutes one of the
most careless pieces of work we have ever seen.
The 30foot ditch paralleling Market street was duo
Tor the only purpose of furnishing adequate DRAINAGE for
this area. Inspection of engineering plans for the drainage
ditch showed underpasses at Polk avenue and Lincoln
avenue as two concrete box culverts. each five feet eioht
inches wide and seven feet deep. or a total underpass
area at each street IL feet four inches wide by seven feet
high.
instead OF following the engineering plans, however. two
4Z-nch round culverts were installed as an underpass at each
street and INTO these two culverts is bottlenecked water from

ing. The plastics industry and
synthetic fiber industry are GER
tain to expand after the war, and
will continue to replace cotton
in many s But fortunately,
many of these s~ynthetics are
made out of cellulose, which is
the fibrous matter of trees, and
what the cotton farmers lose by
way of industrial markets, the
South will make up for to a
large degree by furnishing the
cellulose and other plant sub
stances that will be used in the
substitutes. Indeed, some of the
long range scientists who some
times seem dreamy and imprac-
teal in day-to-day business but
who often accurately foretell
long range trends, have predict
ed that in the distant future
many of our foods, wearing APP
parel and useful articles will be
made by a process of "fermenta-
ton chemistry" which will use
lush green leaves and woody sub
stances as a base for all of these
products. For plants, using the
energy of sunlight alone, are able
by a process called "photosyn-
thesis" to use the suns energy
to produce starches and sugars,
which are stored in cellulose.
And these substances can be
broken down and r~earranged by
chemical treatment to be adapt
able for almost any use and need
of mankind. If the day comes
when we do see the general de-
velopment of fermentation
chemistry" it will be the tropical
and semi-tropical countries like
the Southern states that will
come into their own. For here
the energy of the sun beats hot
test, and here the great supply
of green plant life will be avail
able.
Apparently the scientists are
not talking about a matter of a
few years or decades when they
predict the development of things
like this; but they believe that
in half a century we may see the
development well under way.
However, we set out to talk
about the pine tree, and how fast
grows. One of the gentlemen
we were riding with, George
Sellers, editor of the George
County Times in Lucedale, re-
called that there was a certain
of pines near his boyhood
