FOREIGNERS MUST GO TOURISTS WITHIN DAY (Reed. July 12, 3 p.m.) LONDON, July 11. The Rome correspondent of The Times says that Italy’s decision to expel foreigners from the Tyrol applies to all foreigners, both residents and tourists, “for political and military motives.” The Italian Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs told the British Ambassador that only tourists were required to leave within 24 hours. A prefect would examine each case among residents on their merits and fix a time limit for winding up their affairs and their departure.
