TAGE FOUR LUCKY NAZIS AP Features EAIRO Feb. 11—“The clean-| est, ' best-organized and most comfertable of prisoners of war camps are those occupied by Ger- | man ahd Italian prisoners in the Mid-East.” is the observation of ick F. Driftmier of Shen- andoah, Ia., International YMCA set¢retary for prisoners of war and the only American working with captured enemy soldiers in thé’ "Mid-Eastern area. “They are so good that the} prisoners are dumbfounded when they first Come in,” the tall, youthful social service worker reported, just before he left for the United States on sick leave. “Imagine, first, a collection of tents spread over an area as big; as a city. Look for barbed wire fences surrounding them. Then picture everything else as you would find it in any model army camp in America. “Look for hospitals, community kitchens, bakerie laundr canteens, schools, chapels, barber shops, shoe repair shops, watchmakers and so forth down the list. There'll be land- scaping, too, and sculpturing, and flower and vegetable gardens flourishing in dirt carried in by hand. “But above all, look for a big postoffice—big enough to handle thousands of parcels a week.” All cf these things can be! found in the British prison! 1 libraries, FOR SALE H camps, Driftmier said, notwith- standing th22 they serve prin- cipally as transient centers where men are imprisoned only for a few months pending movement) to South Africa, Canada, Aus- tralia and elsewhere. He said tne postoffices “particularly important”. “Since only German officers and em- ployed prisoners receive money, because of a_ reciprocal agree- ment, they must get all of their ‘extras’—tobacco, chocolate and so forth—in parcels from home cleared through — neutral tries. The Italians:-have aniiar- rangement under which their men are paid, and.can buy every- thing they need in the camp can- teens. “Of course thcse who work get extra money—and the pris- oners will fight for the privilege of working. The jobs cover everything from street cleaning to running a newspaper, and they even have been allowed to build their own camp. This hap- pened when the British were capturing more men than they had camps for. So they simply turned the wire and tools over to the prisoners and told them to build a prison around them- selves. ‘or the most part, these men are given jobs comparable to} those they held before the war. In one camp, an Italian Davis Cup’ tennis player is going to veach tennis. In another, a cham- pion ‘weight lifter is running a igymnastit: contest.” were Classified .
