Arrival of trainload of Italian prisoners from Austrian prison camps at Buchs on the Austro-Swiss frontier. A trainload of these repatriated prisoners, 12 to 15 cars long, containing about 600 men arrives at Buchs each week. Messrs. J. Cooke-Smith, Prof. H. Rushton Fairclough, of Stanford Univ. and Mr. Russley of the American Red Cross meet this train each week and distribute clothing, food, comforts of all sorts, American flags and flowers to the unfortunates. Their condition is deplorable. They are all tuberculous. Several cars contain the bad cases who are in the last stages. Every man has been starved, exposed to all sorts of weather with insufficient clothing, given insufficient medical treatment and otherwise neglected. Many arrive with rags of this shirts covering their nakedness. Many are bare to the waists. Red Cross nurses cover them with blankets. Hundreds have no shoes and wear burlap bags tied around their feet with cords. Others have purulent wounds and running sores from neglect. Dozens are mad and must be given sedatives to keep them from violence. Several die on the journey across Switzerland of each trainload arriving from Austria
