FROM HONOURS GRANTED
OVERSEAS COMMANDERS,
(Received 8.50 a.m.)
LONDON, August 13,
The sentiment among Australians, New Zealanders and Canadians in London is strongly growing that the services of the commanders of the chief overseas armies should have been recognised in the final distributions of honours.
The War Office has intimated that it would like to have done so, but was afraid that the Dominion Governments would feel affronted, therefore it was left to the Australian, New Zealand, and Canadian legislatures to adopt their own measures for recognising the war service of Generals Monash, Eussell, Currie and others, and to recommend them for Imperial honours.—A. and N.Z.
