All of them completed exhaus-

and all except Arnold talked to
their families today.
Throughout the 2% years in
Red prisons, Arnold was the chief
target of Communist abuse.
The others said they were sub-
jected to solitary confinement
and starvation diets but not the
beatings and physical torture the
Reds used on Arnold.
He said he once blacked out for
30 hours and had “periods of
complete irrationality.’’
He shook as he talked of
beatings, by guards who took the
lid off the pail in his cell, dipped
a stick inside and then went at
him. A
