TEN THOUSAND MEN, A DAY,
(Australian and N.Z. Cable Association)
(Received Jan. 3, 8.20 p.m.)
London, Jan. 1
Marshal Foch, in consultation with Sir Douglas Haig and other generals, decided that the size of the Allied army needed in France leaves a large margin for demobilisation on a selective basis. Ten thousand men can be discharged daily, which could be increased to 22,000 if on a non-selective basis with the same transport facilities.
