ANZAC DAY MARCH.
MILITARY BLUNDERING,
(By Telegraph —Press Association.)
DUNK DIN, Friday
in connection with the Anzac Day celebrations in London, at which the New Zealanders were not represented, Sir James Allen cabled to the officer commanding the New Zealand Expeditionary Forces in the United Kingdom, and to-day received the following reply:
"War Office made arrangements for Dominion's march on May 3rd, at which King George is to be present. The Australians approached us at the last moment, asking me to join the Anzac march. In view of the official march on May 3rd I did not consider it advisable to have two marches, and the senior officers concurred."
