(Received July 29, 10 a.m.)
BERLIN, July 28. 111-timed comment by the Socialist M.P. for West Islington, Mr. F Montague, after the announcement that airliners would shortly fly from London to.Berlin non-stop has caused an outcry in Germany. Mr. Montague said that if it was possible |sible in' 1940 to carry 20 passengers non-stop to Berlin it would also hi possible to carry 40 bombs. This caused uproar in the House of Commons, as a result of which Mr Montague apologised to the Speakei and withdrew his remark. The German Press, however, has taken up the matter as justification foi German armament. The "Lokal-Anzeiger" says, "What is
the use of indignation in the House of Commons, as thousands like Mr. Montague are agitating for war against Germany?" ' The "Morgenpost" says that the incident proves how right Germany is to seize every opportunity to make herself as strong as possible.
