Atrocity Stories
The Axis squawked last week about the way Axis citizens, newly released by the U.S., had been treated during their internment:
> Axis newsmen, to whom iron censorship is as natural as dictated copy, grumbled that, from March on, their news reading had been limited to the news-crammed New York Times.
> The German radio claimed that New Orleans jailers had thrown one German woman among prostitutes and an infanticide.
> Germans considered it "a hell" to have had Jewish and Negro guards at Camp Upton, Long Island.
> Tokyo quoted Italian diplomats who accused Americans on Hawaii of mobbing and lynching Japanese.
> Tokyo claimed that the Domei News Agency's New York correspondent had been punched in the face by bullying police, but had floored four of them before he could be handcuffed.
Axis diplomats, who had been luxuriously entertained at posh hotels in White Sulphur Springs and Asheville, did little beefing.
