1.
The infliction of discipline here does not satisfy the
rules which should be adhered to according to the agreements
for treatment of prisoners of war under international law.
Heavy penalties for trivial offenses are inflicted of confinement
in the guard-house, the prison cell of which is of wood,
not heated even in winter, and very lightly built, and is
moreover separated from the irregularly cleaned latrines by
only a thin wooden door. Besides earlier cases two cases have
come to notice in very recent times, in which cases the two
men arrested- Reservists 37 and 38 years old- were each punished
with five days of rigorous imprisonment, when the prison
cells owing to the evil odors coming from the latrine were
totally unfit for sanitary reasons to be used for punishment,
In spite of the bitter winter cold the men confined had to pass
the nights without blankets and according to the Japanese regulations
in stockinged feet. A physical examination as to their
fitness for imprisonment which used to take place, did not on
this occasion take place.
2.
Far less should it be permitted according to the rules of
international law that prisoners be struck by Japanese officers
and guards. Among other cases the following may be cited to
serve as examples. In the course of a short general walk, a
Japanese suspension bridge began to sway owing to the marching
over it. The Japanese First Lieutenant who was following gave
the command to halt, and when this was not at once obeyed he
struck with his fist in the face one of the men who were standing
quietly beside him, who happened to be Seaman Schlotterick
so that his cap fell off. On another morning the Austrian
