Kovel
Bolshevik prisoners in a Polish prison camp at Kowel.
Most of the typhus infection in Poland comes from Russia
and new cases are constantly being introduced by prisoners of war.
These prisoners of war are given the same medical attention as the Polsih soldiers,
and the army medical authorities are endeavoring to check the infection,
although they are terribly handicapped by the lack of soap, medicines, disinfectants,
and the most essential hospital equipment

After five years of Service in a War Prison Camp,
the uniforms are but patches and rags, while some of the men are barefooted
and others have resorted to all kinds of makeshift boots and shoes,
which at best do not keep their feet from the ground

The Interallied Medical Commission sent by the League of Red Cross Societies
to study the typhus situation in Poland found that infection is constantly being carried
into the country from the East by prisoners of War.
It was noted that the prisoners are given the same food and medical attention as the Polish soldiers

Kharkiv
The apartment house at Kharkov which was used by the Bolsheviks
as a detention camp for prisoners of the professional, capitalistic and military classes.
Around the apartment house is a wide ditch which reminds
one of the most encircling a feudal castle.
The moat, however, is only the ditch into which were tumbled the remains of the victims
who were tortured and killed in the cellar of the detention camp.
This photograph is taken at the request of General Denikine's government,
who desires the Red Cross to give the facts of Bolshevism in operation the widest publicity possible through American Red Cross publications in the United States and Europe
