HELPLESS FOREIGNERS
BAVARIA'S PASSPORT RULES.

(AUSTRALIAN . NIW BIAUNB CAILB ASSOCIATE.)
LONDON, sth August. The Daily Express's Berlin correspondent reports that lamentable revelations have been published in the Tageblatt. They were made by a prisoner, who escaped from an internment camp, in which the Bavarian Government detains foreigners who do not possess passports endorsed in regular order; Many helpless victims had been incarcerated for nine months, nearly starved, and entirely unable to perform the brutally hard labour imposed upon them. Their only crime is the failure to produce a Bavarian official stamp 'on their passports. Several British and American travellers, ignorant of the Bavarian refusal to recognise the German visa, have been held up, mulcted in heavy fines, and sent to the internment camp in default of payment.
