GERMAN MANOEUVRES
British Chief of Staff to Attend
FIRST TIME SINCE WAR
By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received September 13, 5.5 p.m.) Rugby, September 11. Field-Marshal Sir Cyril Deverill, Chief of the Imperial General Staff, will attend the combined manoeuvres of the German Army, Navy and Air Force. He will leave for Germany next week, and it will be the first time since the war the British Chief of Staff has attended the German manoeuvres.
When Marshal vou Blomberg, Com-mander-in-Chief of the German forces, visited England for the Coronation, he invited Sir Cyril Deverill and other British officers who will accompany him, including General Sir Edmund Ironside and Air Marshal Sir Arthur Longmore, to attend the manoeuvres, which begin on September 20.
