Nazi Prisoners Strike Over Food; Get Bread, Water Ey the Associated Press. CAMP PICKETT, Va„ April 10.— Having refused to work because they claimed they weren't properly fed, 248 German prisoners now are on a bread-and-water diet. , The prisoners, all naval men. are at the Lindhurst Branch Camp near Waynesboro. Col. A E Potts. Camp Pickett commander, said the prisoners had been receiving the properly pre scribed diet when they refused to work. He added the bread-aiod-water diet would continue until the men conform to the routine set up for them. The discipline is a part of the “no work, no eat" policy of the Army, under the Geneva Conven tion. “—the only sound policy for a democracy!” rrH REGARD to the question of rendering Communists and Communist sympathizers eligible for Army commissions, we support the War Department position as reported in the press that in granting commissions and making various other Army as lignments "the basic consideration is not the propriety oj the indi vidual's opinions; but his loyalty to the United States.” Any position short of this would constitute a denial of constitutional rights, would fail to utilize all qualified soldiers and would under mine national unity. • The question of what one thinks of Com munist philosophy is not involved. The issue is one of full utilization oq a democratic basis of all forces dedicated to winning the war. Using this as a yardstick, the Army has apparently taken its posi tion as a result of the excellent record of Communists and so-called Communists including a number who have been cited for gallantry and a number who have died in action. • The War Department'* order is common sense and the only sound policy for a democracy. It carries out our country’s stated policies of unity of all forces se riously supporting the war effort. It is consistent with our close cooperation with the Soviet Union and with other United Nations members, whose governments include Communists, for winning the war and building a durable peace.
