Hunn was asked. ; “There is a constant check being made,” he replied. “The Inter national Red Cross, of course, has access to prisoner of war camps, Then, too, the neutral Swiss government has been assigned by Germany to check on our prisoner of} war camps, and. we have asked the}: Swiss to report on German internment camps holding Americans.” In the last war there wasn't a single internment camp for German prisoners in the United States, Now there are three dozen or more camps such as this. It is far easier to feed and maintain prisoners on the prairies of Colorado than it is {a1 camps behind the battle lines, This camp has a separate compound for the Nazi officers; its quarters are identical with those of American officers stationed on the post. It has several compounds for enlisted’ men; the compounds are broken down into barracks of 50 men each, each barracks being run by German non-commissioned offlcers, . Around each compound is a double wall of barbed wire. These barriers are under constant watch from towers where soldiers are armed with machine guns. At night the barbed wire walls are brilliantly lighted. And whenever a prisoner steps ‘outside his compound into other areas of the camp, he is under guard of an American soldier, ‘It was abvious, as you watched these - broad-shouldered youths at work, paid at the basic rate of 10 cents an hour, that they had settled down agreeably to camp routine.

Some of you must invest thousands in order fo meet
