Camps Crowded Despite the amnesty proclamationof the soviet government, November last, the - prisons and camps continue crowded with men and women poit- ical prisoners whose only crime ap- pears to have been that they once were rich or that they fell afoul of old ene- mies who used their communistic in- fluence to avenge private grievances. Conditions hace been foing from bad to worse since the famine until now prison means to be practically without food, colthes, heat or medicine. The organization known as the Russian po- litical Red Cross has had its meager supplies and funs cut off, along with schools, hospitals and other insttu- Ytlons R The people in the famine region are i a paradise compared to those who are denied their liberty and all means of obtainifig food. Eat Like Animals In the camps of Novospaski and Pokrofsky, near Moscow, to the cer- tain knowledge of The Associated Press correspondent, the prisoners are reduced to eating bits of refuse, like hungry animals. The best that i's served them is greasy hot water called soup and pieces of black bread. Once such people as these get into prison they stay there almost auto- matically because they are f no spe- cial political importance in present- 4ay Soviet Russia. Plans Completed For Addition To Botany Gardens Plans for the addition to the botan- ical gardens on Packard street and for .the gardener's home, have -been re- ceived by Prof. H. H. Bartlett, of the botany departinen. The additions were approved at the last meeting of the Board of Regents. A propagation house is to be added to the/west end of the present build- ing. ;It will be used for the purpose of starting seeds and cuttings and is to be 30 by 50 feet. t Completed plans for the botanical gardens call for eleven greenhouses, of which this is the fifth. The present greenhouses, boiler house and labor- atory building, were constructed in 1915 and 1916. During the years since .1916 construction has necessarily been at a standstill, although the work of the garden has expanded' as originally contemplated. The crowded condition resulting has greatly hampered the work and the new building will tem- porarily relieve the situation., The garden is now recognized, ac- cording- to rofessor Bartlett, as provid- ing facilites for advanced teaching and, search' in plant breeding and genetics second to none in the coun- try. In addition it furnishes mater- ial for the teaching of elementary bot- anyf onthe campus, and provides dec- orations for the University hospitals and other buildings.a Prof. R. N. Curtiss, assistant direc- tor of the Observatory, was recently on the stand in Detroit giving testi- mony in the Michigan Stamping com- pany case, started by residents of the neighborhood who had complained about the vibrations of their homes. They claimed that the machinery in the company's mill caused the tremors. Professor Curtiss measured the vi- brations in the mill and, by means of instruments, determined what machine it was that was causing the com- plaints. He then went tothe nearest house and measured the tremors there, and found that they were greatly re- duced. The case has not as yet been settled, but the court has given the Michigan Stamping company a. chance to remove the cause for complaint.
