DACHAU PRISON
HORRORS Barred

DACHAU, Germany, Nov. IL
R)-A young German engraver
who spent three years in the Da-
chau concentration camp demon
strated to a U. S. military court
today how guard kicked the
shins of prisoners with heavy boots
until the bone was barred.
Karl Wolf, hatred in his eyes,
identified three additional defend
ants charged with atrocities at the
camp, bringing to 20 the number
of defendants singled out by name
in the first three days of the trial.
The accused total 40.
Wolf added the names of En-
colbert Niedermeyer, Johann Kick
and Otto Schulz to the list of those
named by witnesses.
He said Kick, as head of the
Political department." selected
invalids and cripples for "recov-
cry trips" from which they never
returned.
1.-THE only thing that came back
was their artificial limbs" Wolf
said. He said Schulz took food
from prisoners and that Nieder-
meyer operated a crematorium.
Wolf told the court that Fried
rich Rupert, former commander
of the camp, could beat people
without changing expression-just
like a blacksmith hammering
iron"
The witness termed Christof
Knoll, another defendant, a Jew
Killer who would "often brag
how many Jews he killed on his
work detail
He testified he saw Emil Mahl,
still another defendant, hang a
prisoner "just like professional
hangman-and as such he was
known throughout the camp"

home to help the Red Cross pro-
vide those comparatively megre
comforts?" ?"
And the answer is almost moth
ing"
Coolidge has been given a quota
of $4,000 to raise for the work of
the Red Cross and after two
weeks of calling on the people of
Coolidge the solicitors have rails
ed a mere $4,000.
Yeah! Big hearted, we are. While
we stay home and enjoy our fam
lilies, good jobs, plenty of food,
plenty to drink, plenty Of clothes
the nearly 700 men we have sent
to the army, the navy and the ma
rine corps to whip the Japs and
the Germans live in mud, in rain,
In snow they are dirty, hun
cry and tired. They get little or
no rest. They get killed. They
get wounded. They catch hell
generally. What little entertain
ment they do get between lulls in
the fighting is provided by the
Red Cross and the Red Cross
funds must come from voluntary
contributions.
The Red Cross asks us for less
than $40 per fighting man from
Coolidge :. surely not very
much for what the Red Cross does
and little enough that we can do
for our men.
Unless other sections of our
country do a better job raising
money for the Red Cross than we
are doing-God help our men.
Is it Indifference?
