German Prisoners Of War Harvest wo Beets With the opening of the.sugar beet campaign in northern Utah October 8th, approximately 1900 German prisoners of war from the base camp at this depot and the branch camps at Logan, Salina, Orem, and Tremonton were assigned to work in beet fields assisting in harvesting the bumper crop.

Department announced today. The wool and cotton clippings had been returned to the Philadelphia and Jeffersonville depots by contractors who had received government materials to complete clothing contracts. Scrap leather and scrap metals sales were by the Kansas City and Jeffersonville depots, Processors and dealers purchased the $3,217,642.76 worth of wool and cotton clippings for reworking into cloth and use in the manufacture of additional clothing. The Philadelphia Quartermaster Depot, which buys all clothing for the Army, handled by far the greater part of the year’s salvage activities with a total of $3,590,276 being returned to the government through sales at that depot. Of that amount $2,893,111 was realized from the sale of wool clippings, and funds from the sale of cotton clippings totaled $110,287. Service,.

The PW’s receive the regular wages of 80c per day in canteen coupons. Money received by the treasury is used to help defray expenses of maintaining those or other prisoner of war camps in the United States. “The demand for PW labor in the Ogden area has been greater than the supply during the summer sea- son,” Colonel Arthur J. Ericsson, commanding officer of the base camp at the depot, stated. “In filling orders for labor and asigning details, first consideration is given to requests for handling perishable foods and to agriculture projects. At no time is prisoner-ofwar labor used when free civilian labor is available,” Colonel Ericsson said. During the past year the Germans have been engaged in agriculture projects throughout the seasons including pruning fruit trees, thinning beets, picking cherries, peaches, apricots and other fruit, and also working in canning and freezing plants and sugar factories both for private and cooperative concerns. According to an official report, a total of $458,135.98 was paid to the government from April 16 to Sept. 15, 1945 for PW labor from outside using agencies. After deduction for transportation, utilities in branch camps, and pay of prisoners, net earnings were $344,845.28. Earnings from some projects averaged $7.00 per day per man.
