back in north amer ica with a firm opinion that the united nations are bound to win the war and that nazi morale is de creased through hitlers inability to subjugate russia last winter rev mr lehman was one of 143 americans who were in berlin ahen hitler declared war on the united states last dec s the day after the pearl harbor attack the next week the entire group was herded south to bad nauheim and placed in a luxurious hotel prison i there they remained until a few weeks ago when freedom was made in exchange for german nationals in tho united states attending local gathering irev mr lehman attending the 3cth annual international confer ence of the mennonite board of missions and charities at the mbc tabernacle on the preston highway recently ho related some of his experiences to a large gathering at the tabernacle i can tell you almost anything i know about conditions in germany and some of the occupied countries but i should be a little careful for there are german agents in the united states and canada today and after the war i plan to return to germany and carry on my work he told a reporter for the kitchener record with a record of two years and a half of relief work in the name of the mennonite church for war vic tims of all faiths in poland and oth er warstripped countries rev mr lehman is shocked at the extravag ance and waste in america compar ed to the poverty and starvation so evident in some areas in europe 15 hones in prison i once the united states was ofhcially in the war we americans were anested by the gestapo and spent 15 hours in a german prison the german foreign oflice on hear ing of our plight immediately made other arrangements whereby we were taken to bad nauheim along with the embassy officials were war correspondents fiom the united states including the associ ated press stall stories by louis loclmer and other ap writers on conditions in side germany have been appearing in the record since the return of these newspapermen to now york shortly before the declaration of war on the united states rev mr lehman who had been carrying on his missionary work alone was ad vised to become attached to the american embassy in a semiofficial capacity at least or risk intern ment for the duration he didthu along with a member of- tho hoover commission for polish relief none gained weight i was just an american with a passport in germany and the ger man foreign office could not guarantee my safety he explained trie large luxurious hotel which hecame our prison in bad nauheim had the finest equipment but we got thin on the food offered i my self lost 43 pounds daring the five months arid none of the 143 diplo mats and newspapermen reported an increase in weight meat was rationed we had meat five days out of seven but it was limited to nino ounces a week we were given a cereal soup in the evening boiled potatoes carrots smelly red cabbage cereal pudding and black rye bread were also pro vided coffee was made out of bar ley for those who drank beer there was plenty prouded for each meal the visitor said wines and cigar ettes could be bought heat lucking i was able to get a little good meat butter and cheese by parcel peat every once in a while and this helped me from becoming a victim of serious malnutrition there was a fair amount of food availablo for us but it s not always nutri tious in the winter there was not enough heat provided and some of us had to sleep with our heavy socks on s we were allowed to read all the german newspapers these never told the people the bad news of the war there wore no casualty lists printed when a nazi died in ac tion the family was notified by a letter and only a small percentage of tho families would have an obit uary notice inserted ln the paper he explained had secret radio asked how the interned news papermen secured their informa tion during trie past five months re mr lehman explained that the german newspapers told the am erican inewsiapemen something the waiters and maids at the hotel talked at times and one cf the newspapermen had a secret radio we finally urged the owner of the radio to get rid of it for discov ery might have meant internment for the duration for all of us the men would listen from 11 oclock at night until 2 am in the morning on short wave at the dinner table we would discuss what had been heard the germans still consider hitler a sort of- a god and other leaders in the nazi party are seldom mention ed by the people thoy still consider themselves a superior race german opinions of other people follow english good fighters but too arrogant due to their efforts to con trol commerce in the world for the past 150 years italians an inferior race despis ed by the germans canadians good fighters americans contempt for the army through its lack of military background buta respect for the resources of the united states the country is one of movie stars and gangsters and you must wear a bul letproof vest if you ever go to chicago the german people themselves are beginning to feel that the war will not be over for several years now however they have no real doubt yet that hitler will win rev mr lehman said asked what effect the plebiscite vote in canada had on the germans the rev mr lehman stated that any evidence of friction in the unit ed nations was something for the nazi propaganda machine to pounce on for headline news the diplomats and newspaper men found various ways to spend their time during internment a university was established at which sociology ethics and lan guages were taught musical enter tainment was popular and some wrote humorous essays for the group a mimeographed newspaper was published every two weeks al though it was difficult to secure paper owing to a shortage in ger many all outside recreation was under stiict supervision of guards we never got out of their sight rev mr lehman explained the women in germany are re placing men in many occupations women now deliver the mail and handle the street cars and bus services a third of these who work in munition factries are women he said the crusading pastor had a brief tenweek furlough a year ago iu which he returned
