"It was about 10 o'clock In the morn ing (French time) when I flrBt learned of a rumor that the armistice had been signed.

All Bates Celebrated Signing "The admiral then sent hia personal aide with me to assist me Jn filing the dispatch as I do not speax French flu ently. "It was the fact that all Brest, In cluding operators and censors, accepted the news as official and was celebrat ing at the time, that caused my wire to pasa the French censorship at Brest un challenged.

"All the celebration on that day was by no means on this side of the At lantic. "Nothing much has yet beep said' as to the source of Admiral Wilson's In formation. This is not for me to dis cuss. Nothing has been said as to the reason for the report current on that day throughout France. No explana tion has yet been offered of how the report reached the American embassy in Paris as pfficial.
