NAZI BRUTALITY
IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS [by CABLE PRESS ASSN. COPYBIGHT.] (Recd. Feb. 28, 11 a.m.). LONDON, February 27. The “Sunday Chronicle’s” Paris correspondent says: Australian-bred George Rubin, the son of a German doctor, dropped a letter addressed to Melbourne into a Berlin letter-box. It was unfavourable to the Nazis, for which reason Rubin was arrested, and sentenced in the People’s Court to two years’ imprisonment in a concentration camp. He has been released, following the efforts of the British Consul, after nine months, during which time all his teeth were knocked out. He is now in Paris, waiting for repatriation. He has practically no money for food. Rubin states that 235 Protestant pastors in the camp knelt every night, to say their prayers, amid the jeers of the Nazi guards. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SUSPECT LONDON, February 27. “The Times” Berlin correspondent says that the days of Christian Science in Germany are apparently numbered. The Nazis have begun expressing their disapproval of the creed, on medical, religious, and political grounds, including pacifism.
