HOLLAND IMPLICATED
(Received 11.50 a.m.) .PARIS, Oct. 22. The Supreme Council, in a note, calls attention to Germany's attempts to evade the terms of th e armistice and demands the handing over of five German merchant ships, of a total tonnage of sixty thousand, which Germany admits were transferred to Holland in 1916. This transfer was invalid, a fact of which Germany and Holland were aware. Consequently the ships never put to sea," fearing capture. —A. and N.Z.
