Show GEHMII ! Encounter Warm Receptions When Identity is Discovered Hard Row to Hoe LONDON, March 19. Large numbers num-bers of German and other undesirables who were deported from England in the war have managed to make their way back to London but have encountered encoun-tered warm receptions when their identity has been discovered. They managed to cross from the continent by working their way as sailors on tramp steamers to northern English and Scottish ports. These Germans who have come back to England to take up business again find it a hard row to hoe, says the Evening Standard. One German business busi-ness man gave it up and returned to his fatherland after being refused admission ad-mission to five London hotels. He found rooms in a Bloomsbury boarding house but two days later "the other boarders discovered him, and notified the manager they could not live under the same roof -with a German; and he was turned out. A German butcher in a London suburb sub-urb was proven (ed by his neighbors from reopening his old store the other day although, he had lived in England for 40 years, and there arc many similar sim-ilar cases. Neither captain nor crew of the steamer Snica. thn rirf. Gormnn onrrm ship to enter the Firth of Forth since August, 1914, wore allowed ashore at Methil and, in deference to local feH- ;ing, the vessel did nqt display the I German flag. On the other hand, a revival of "Tannhauser" at Covcnt Garden opera recently drew a crowded and appreciative apprecia-tive audience of sqciety people. The cast, however, was wholly English. |
