Despite the strict Ger man regulations that nobody sball be allowed to approach within three kilometres of the frontier, he says, hundreds of women are tramping long fields and cross- ingivalets, in order to reach the Datch frontier to bay something to eat; and pitiful scenes are witnessed when the Datch frontfer guards are obliged to deprive the women of what they have bought.
