CONCENTRATION CAMPS.

BLOT ON GERMANY. IMPRESSIONS OF VISITOR. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON. September 4. “If only the German people could see what I saw in that camp they surely wouldn’t suffer it to continue another week.” writes Mr Arnald Foster, technical adviser to the National Peace Council, in describing a visit to the Bavarian concentration camp. “I have reason to believe,” fie adds, “that fourteen have been killed in the camp in horrible ways, arid many mal-treated. It is like the Middle Ages. I was not allowed tc «ee the prison quarters. Men and boys are imprisoned without trial or sentence. I cannot describe the expression of hopelessness in the faces of that tragic company. The electrified barbed wire around the camp is a wire around all Germany r ow.”

The Nazi Congress at Nuremburg demonstrated that its 'anti-Jewish policy would not l>e modified, but the worst of the campaign is apparently over with the elimination of Jewish doctors, lawyers, and other professionals, whose lot is tragic. Jewish shopkeepers are managing to carry on, and may survive oppreision. . The anti-Memitie speeches of HenHitler and Dr. Goebbels at Nuremburg were followed by an unofficial boycott of Jewish shops, pickets roughly handling would-be customers. The authorities did not interfere.
