Nazi Imprisonment Of 18,000 Dissenters Termed Training By WALTER’ BROCKMANN a. y Auueciated Frenu) BERLIN, May 20.—Some 18,- 000 Germans from all walks of} life are being held in the political concentration camps in various parts of the country. Wilhelm Frick, Prussian minis- ter of the interior, explains that they will be kept there until they become “fit citizens,” reconciled jif not converted, to the Nazi re- gime of Adolf Hitler. Camp Surroundings Vary Most of the 18,000 are socialists or communists. Of all ages or classes, they kept on a strict rou- tine of exercise and work. Quarters vary from an. ancient castle, like Hohnstein, in Saxony, which was a shelter for youthful hikers before it was converted ‘to its present use, to rough barracks surrounded by barbed wire en-j | tanglements. { Sanitary conditions generally lare described as. excellent. There for the health of the inmates, andj some of them report that the po- litical prisoners are adepts at bet- ting on morning “sick call.” “Most of them simulate sick-; ness because they think they'll get hospital leave.” was the way the newspaper Taeglische Rund- schau quoted the camp physician at Oranienburg, near Berlin. Plenty of Exercise Daily At Oranienburg there are 15 1-2 hours routine daily. The schedule calls for 2 1-2 hours of military training, like scaling barricades and drill in columns and compayty front formation, an! hour and a half of physical cul- ture and five hours of manual bor. The physical culture: includes asthe matches and — similar group games. The manual labor is mostly tidying up the camp! premises and barracks, but there| are odd jobs too, such as sewing or painting swastika emblems on confiscated communist flags. At most of the camps privileges are few.
