It was a warm summer afternoon, and I decided to get a haircut right after work.
I left my office just after five and started to walk the short distance to my regular barbershop. Along the way, I saw a new barbershop I hadn’t seen before. It had a sign on the pavement out in front, which read:
“Haircuts £10. Hot towel shave £15. Full treatment £20.”
I thought, what the hell. I may as well try a new place- at that price it’s hard to refuse.
I opened the door and stepped inside. Immediately my senses were awash with the sounds and scents of barbering- the aroma of lemon cologne, the faint hint of barbicide, the buzz of clippers and the clicking of scissors.

Seated at the table in a tent at the center of the open area were the camp superintendent and several of the higher ranking guards. They were talking with the military doctor assigned to the camp on a part time basis. He was supposed to see to the medical needs of the guards and the prisoners, and advise the superintendent with regard to sanitation.
The doctor was expressing his concerns about the lack of bathing facilities for the prisoners. He was not concerned about the plans for disposing of human waste on a temporary basis, but emphasized the need for washing. The superintendent explained that the program and the camp had been established by executive order of the president, and that Congress had not yet approved the enabling legislation nor appropriated the funds. Under these circumstances, there was not enough money to provide everything needed.
