INCIDENT AT GENEVA
TWO MINUTES' SILENCE
ANNOYANCE IN GERMANY
(Received 12th November, 1.30 p.m.) v BERLIN, 11th November. ' At the instance of Jonkhoer Van London, the delegates at the Preparatory Disarmament Commission at Geneva, including the Germans, Turks, and! Bulgars, -observed a two minutes' sil- ' ence. The Berlin newspapers do not comment, except the "Tageszeitung" and "Krcuzzeitnng," whose Geneva correspondents indignantly refer to
tactlessness, ana assert that the German delegates, following the- example of several German journalists, should have -withdrawn. The "Kreuzzeitung" declares that tho victors celebrate Armistice Day, not as tho anniversary of the advent of peace, but of Germany's surrender. The "V-ossisehezeitung" admits that England undoubtedly observes it as a day of bringing peaco to humanity.
