INTERNED IN ITALY Auckland Star, Volume LXXVI, Issue 213, 8 September 1945, Page 6 ESCAPE OVER BORDER N.Z. MAN'S EXPERIENCES N.Z.E.F. Official War Correspondent LAKE COMO, Sept. 7. In the town of Bellagio, beautifully situated on the shores of Lake Como, I met a New Zealander, George S. Prouse, who was formerly well known in tennis and musical circles in Wellington. He left New Zealand 35 years ago, and has since been in business in Milan. When Italy entered the war in 1940 he was imprisoned at Milan for two months as a result of anonymous complaints, but was later released. With his Italian wife and their son he was interned at Bellagio in a villa on the lakeside, which he admits was by no means an unpleasant form of internment, but when, following the Italian surrender, the Germans moved into an hotel right next door, Mr. Prouse regarded this as much too close for either comfort or safety. So one day, when the weather was suitable for walking, the family shouldered their rucksacks and set out for a tramp along the lakeside. With the assistance of persons who know how these things are done, their tramp ended in Switzerland, no great distance away. Once over the mountain border, Mr. Prouse and family walked down a track to the nearest Swiss police station, where they were received with rather more cordiality than they had expected. Thus began two years of comfortable internment at Lugano which ended only about a month ago. Mr. Prouse's main concern now is to establish his business in Milan, and when conditions are suitable he hopes to take his family for a visit to New Zealand. |
