\YASIIINGTON. Jan. 27.r~-Life for
conscientious objectors in army pri-
sons in this country was far from be
in: “one SWeet song, a soft. bunk and
nothing to do with lots of time to
boil," according to a complaint filed
today with the House Military Affairs
Committee by Theodore H. Lunde.
president of the American Industrial
Company, Chicago, who pleads for an
investigation by a Congressional com-
,mittee of alleged “brutalitics and tor-
Atures," visited upon objectors by arm~
ed prison officers. Most of the cases
'cited already have been investigated
§and refuted or remedied by the War
Department.
l Three objectors were “stripped of
3their clothing and ‘slrung up‘ for nine
hours a day every day in the week at
:Fort. Leavenworth prison.” according
fto Lunde who declares his authority
ll‘or the charge is an army officer, who
italked with the objectors. These
‘men.were beaten and otherwise man--
Ihandled, according to Lunde. !
Professor Called Insane .
i Lunde asserts that Clark Getts, a
fChicago attorney, graduate of Wis
iconsin University, who objected to war
..was adjudged insane at the same-priv
{son and was confined with dangerous-1
his; ly insane prisoners with his life con-E
istantly in jeopardy. Several other:
jcases were cited. 7
