"There are four concentration camps in the neighborhood and the screaming of maltreated people can
be heard by those who reside near by."
"Frightful excesses occurred in Camp Lamsdorf in Upper Silesia, where a camp population of 8,064
Germans were literally decimated through starvation, hard labor and physical maltreatment. One of
the surviving German doctors recorded the deaths of 6,488 inmates of Lamsdorf including 628
children." - Alfred deZayas, Nemesis at Potsdam, Routledge & Kegan Paul, London
CONCENTRATION CAMPS IN RUMANIA
30,000 Hungarians, mostly of the professional classes were summarily executed by the invading
Soviets and Rumanian Communists. In addition it is estimated that 200,000 Germans and Croats died
in Rumanian death camps.
CONCENTRATION CAMPS IN FRANCE
"France, according to the International Red Cross, had 680,000 German soldiers slaving for her in
August, 1946. 475,000 of their number had been captured by the United States and later turned over
to the French for forced labour." - John Thompson, Chicago Tribune Press, August 24th 1946
LIVING SKELETONS... CONDEMNED TO DIE
"In certain (French concentration camps) for German prisoners-of-war, living skeletons may be seen
almost like those in German concentration camps, and deaths from undernourishment are numerous.
We learn that prisoners have been savagely and systematically beaten and that some of them have
been employed in removing mines without protective equipment so that they are condemned to die
sooner or later." - Figaro, The Progressive, January 14th 1946
"In a camp for the Sarthe District for 20,000 prisoners, inmates received 900 calories a day; thus
twelve die every day in the hospital. Four to five thousand are unable to work at all any more.
Recently trains with new prisoners arrived at the camp; several prisoners had died during the trip,
several others had tried to stay alive by eating coal that had been lying in the freight train by which
they came
In an Orleans camp, the commander received 16 francs a day per head or prisoner to buy food, but he
spent only 9 francs, so that prisoners were starving. In the Charante district, 2,500 of the 12,000 camp
inmates are sick." - Ralph F. Keeling, Gruesome Harvest, Institute of American Economics
"A witness reports on the camp a Langres. 'I have seen them beaten with rifle butts and kicked with
feet in the streets because they broke down of overwork. Two or three of them die with exhaustion
every week.
In another camp near Langres, 700 prisoners slowly die of hunger; they have hardly any blankets and
not enough straw to sleep on; there is a typhoid epidemic in the camp which has already spread to the
neighboring village. In another camp prisoners receive only one meal a day but are expected to
continue working. Elsewhere so many have died recently that the cemetery space was exhausted and
another cemetery had to be built.
