Mr. President

I have the report on the conditions in the prison just as you requested

This ought to debunk all the baseless claims that the women are being mistreated

Good I trust I won't be disappointed

No sir

Oh God

What is it

We are providing the ladies with excellent care

A doctor came and dragged me out of my bed

Their treatment includes artificial feeding

He smiled and said that I must be fed

The ladies receive it without resistance

I turned and twisted all I could

But they threw me on my back and strapped in my arms and legs

There is no force necessary

They try to pry my mouth open with pliers

And I try to clench my teeth shut

But they shove the tube down my throat and up my nose

The ladies are offered fresh milk and eggs

They pour raw eggs through the tube to my gut

They experience no discomfort

Everything went black

I didn't know where to breathe from

The ladies are the picture of health

They withdrew the tube and I bled out my nose

Out my mouth so much blood

Then they leave me there very sick

Choking and gagging all night long

The ladies are nourished by three meals a day

We are forcibly fed three times a day

I must say they take this well

Don't let them tell you we take this well

Don't let them tell you we take this well

In conclusion the ladies are well taken care of

And all rumors in the press of physical abuse are entirely false

But sir the problem remains of what to do about their leader alice paul

They took alice away

Will not tell us where

Have not seen her in days

Terribly worried

Someone ought to commit her to an asylum

She does exhibit symptoms of hysteria

Such as verbal displays of opinions in public

A failure to marry and conceive

Ladies must be protected
