BRITISH MINISTER ON COMING OFFENSIVE (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.50 a.m.) RUGBY, March 28. The coming Allied offensive on Germany will be a military operation unparalleled in the history of war, said the Financial Secretary to the War Office (Mr Arthur Henderson), speaking at a Salute the Soldier parade in London. Mr Henderson added: “The hands of the clock are turning. They have reached five to twelve. When the clock strikes twelve, our armies will go forward to what will certainly be their greatest ordeal, and to what we hope and believe will bring them their greatest triumph.”
