GERMAN VISITORS BANKING CORPORATION,

Italy now is full of German artisans who are spending their holidays there under a scheme in- troduced by the German Govern- ment as a means of off-setting Italy's lack of exchange to pay for her imports.

Family door-to-door travel tickets for one week are issued and paid for in Germany at a low inclusive price. No money thus leaves Ger- many; the Italian hotel-keeper who is compelled to accept the German visitors, sends the coupons to his own Government and receives pay- ment-after an interval.

These visitors: have nothing to spend, being able to bring only 10 Reichsmarks, about 108, out of their country. This however, does not prevent them from crowding into the shops ani fingering the goods.

The Italian man-in-the-street dis likos these invaders intensely, and English people who have made their home in Italy for years are leaving.
