Harriet Reihman of Mauch Chunk today received word from her brother, Tech. 5th Grade Charles Reihman Jr., a prisoner of war of the Italians in Germany. He wrote on a postal: "I am all right. I have not been wounded. I am a prisoner of the Italians and I am being treated well. Shortly I shall be transferred to a prisoners' camp and I will let you have my address." The young soldier was taken prisoner in February. His family is permitted to send him an 11-pound package every 60 days and to send cigarettes to him through a tobacco company.
