DUTCH SYMPATHIES.
WORRY TO GERMANS. LONDON, November 1. The widespread confidence which the population of Holland continues to draw from the fact that the Dutch Government is established in London worries the Nazis, who are trying to suppress pro-British feeling throughout Holland by the imprisonment of several high Dutch officials. Rumours sometimes circulate in London and on the Continent that the Dutch Government will move to the Netherlands East Indies, but in authoritative Dutch quarters it is said that such rumours or reports can be dismissed as pure inventions. A Dutch correspondent, writing in the “'l'imes,’’ states that wireless sets are being removed from the homes of those people discovered listening to broadcasts from London by important Dutch personages. The correspondent also states that among the Dutchmen arrested and put in concentration camps are university professors of antiFascist reputation who were engaged in activities opposed to Nazism before the German invasion of the Low Countries.
