Military discipline prevails., It effects the English-German aristocrat and the lowliest Pittsburtr steel'-vfark-er alike. A company of British sol diers guards the palace which in peace time served as a London Coney Island, or White City. ; There are benevolent societies, directors' meetings, institutes of painting, drawing, sculpture; a treatre inat would do credit to Broadwav. workshops for dozens of trades, a fully equippe-d hospital; schools, postoffices! football and Swedish drill; laundries, inammoin spotless Kitchens, stores and shops, commodious bath rooms and dozens of ot'her things inside the bar bed wire enclosing this multitude. ' "They are makinor the best of it and it is my duty to let them enjoy lifo ' to the limit of military possibilities," remarked Colonel Frood Walker, a British rep-ular armv veteran ' nt I twenty years in the Orient, who is the commandant. I Tho Commandant's words voIca Mia British attitude toward prisoners of war, oocn miniarv ana civilian Tl considers the human side of those lorcea to live behind wire entangle ments. Once a week the Commandant turns over his office to prisoners who nave complaints. He hears the stories and does what he can. The man. with n grouch tells his troubles .to the cap tain of his moss. If it is merltorius, the complnint Is passed to lhe alien commander who governs a hundred men. He takes it up wirh the battalion commander, another: alien who gov erns a thousand men. : . Then the com plaint may appear in person before the veteran commandant who toever "strafes" the enemy, ;. vyi.,....-,.. Twice weekly the commandant per sonally inspects every one of the 3,000 beds housed under the groat roofs of the palace. These beds are neat and clean, with four blankets end a soft mattress for each, There are elgflit cooks for "every thousand (prisoners. The food is pre Pared and taken to the three great mesa rooms, each of which can - com pare in floor space to the main lobby The Store of better service and better values. of New York's Grand Central station. Here is the food allowance, per mm per day: 11-2 pounds of white bread, 1-2 pound of meat; 1-2 pound of po- tatoea, two ounces of peas, lentils, beans or rice; two ounces of sugar; 1-2 ounce of tea or two ounces of coffee; one ounce of margarine or two ounces of cheese, tinned milk, salt and pepper. There is afternoon tea with bread and butter. - Each battalion has a large canteen f where a prisoner may augment hi food supply. The wealthier internees freely (patronize the canteens, but the ordinary fare is better than the aver age Pittsburg steel worker ever had in his life. ' These Pittsburgers Brent anxious for the war to close. They're satisfied. . The American embassy, God-father of all enemy aliens in the British Isles, works hand in hand with a special com-, mittee of the wealthier interned men to care for the special wants of the poor. The women and children on the outside are the principal beneficiaries of this joint benevolent society; More than 8000 cases have been attended to since September. t.
