13,000 Held in
Political Jails
By West Germans
Bonn- (UPD -Thirteen thou
sand political prisoners are
in East German jails for
crimes that wouldn't even
rate a fine in a western state,
West German officials report.
Their "crimes," All-German
Affairs Minister Ernest Lem
mer said, range from threat
ening to close a business
house because it was losing
money to refusing to Join a
Communist farm collective.
"Whoever dares to publicly
criticize the state (In East
Germany)," Lemmer declared,
"goes to jail."
"Just one example of un
numbered cases," Lemmer
continued, "is that a barber
ohnn nwnflr In .Ttieterboi? who
said during a discussion that
If prices didn't change he

goals.' His license to operate
a barber shop also was vim

slept In their underclothing
and, as cellB were overcrowd

blankets on the cement floors.
Once every . fortnight, they
were allowed to shower.
Attempt to Fie
Many of the prisoners were
sentenced for attempting to
flee to West Germany.
Thereon hangs one of the
best bits of gallows humor
ex-prlsoners have reported.
The tale has it that a gov

rose party had been certified.
"He tried to lice East uer

"But that doesn't make him
crazy." the Inspector mur
mured.
"But this one," came the
answer, "tried to escape to
the Soviet Union."

Blind Spaniards
Make Living by
Running Lottery
Madrid-IUPD-Forelgn tourists
pay little attention to the
seemingly, never-ending cry
of the lottery vendors who
flock the streets of Madrid
and other Spanish cities.
What most of them don't
notice Is that all the lottery
vendors are blind.
The dally lottery, which
pays 250 pesetas for one pe
seta If you win ($4.17 for 1.7
cents), is a means of letting
blind people with no other
talents pay their own way in
the world. Admittedly they
don't have an easy time of it
out on the streets come rnln
or shine, but they can make
enough to live on and take
the load off their relatives.
In all of Spain there are
18,000 blind persons. In the
capital city of Madrid there
are 1,500 sightless people. For
many of them the lottery !s
their only means of survival.
The lottery was founded
and Is sponsored by the Na
tional Organization for the
Blind. Both the organization
and the lottery began In 1938,
near the end of the bloody
civil war.
The cycle of a vendor's life
starts In the evening at 8:30
when he goes to central head
quarters to pick up the cou
pons for the next day. At
the same time he also returns
the unsold coupons of the pre
vious day and collects his per
centage for the tickets sold.
One Peseta
Each ticket is sold for one
peseta (1.7 cents) and the
man's profit depends on a cer
tain minimum set on him by
the organization. For instance,
the smallest minimum is 120
tickets per day and is fixed
on a vendor living alone with
no one to support. The mini
mum goes up as the number
of dependents increases.
The blind man is given a
profit of 40 per cent on his
minimum and 20 per cent on
any additional sales. He can
sell as many tickets as he
wants to during a day. Aver
ago sales run from 300 to 400
a day, bringing the seller a
profit of around $50 a month.
Each man is assigned a cer
21 49c
tain area and a good part of '
his active life is spent walk
ing up and down that part of
the city soliciting his trade.
The coupons are about the
size of a book of matches and
have a red number printed In
the center. The numbers start
at 1 and go up to 1,000. Many
duplicate numbers are sold to
gether and this Increases the
value of the prize.

Every night except Sundays
and holidays at 8:30 the lucky
number Is drawn at one of
the offices of the National Or
ganization for the Blind.
Three metal cages filled with
little wooden balls are spun
around and from each one a
ball Is taken. Each ball counts
as a digit in the winning num
ber and when three zeros
come up, the number is 1,000.
The radio and the press an
nounce the number and each
coupon with the number is
worth $4.17. Also the holder
of a ticket with the Inst two
digits corresponding to the
lucky number receives 40
cents.
Local Man Owner
$100,000 War Bill
Frank Crowcll, 324 Haven
st., was prompted to write
the mayor tf St. Petersburg,
Fin., this week because of the
fact that he has a Confederate
States of America $100,000
bill.
The Florida mayor, appear
ing on the television program
"To Tell the Truth" this week,
reported that he was a col
lector of Confederate money.
The Confederate money Is
worth dollar for dollar among
collectors, he said.
Crowell enclosed a photo
static copy of his $100,000
bill with the letter to see if
the Florida man will ask for
the original. The Medford res
ident said that he has had
the bill for 35 years.
It originally belonged to his
grandfather, the late Alvin
Crowell, who lived at Jack
sonville. The grandfather,
Crowell said, had a plantation
in the south, and came to
this area with some $280,000
In Confederate money, which
was worthless as legal tender.
