i '.New York, Nov. 21. (U. P.) "The
palletln announcing th Binning of the
ftrrntstlce, which Admiral Wilson gave
jfut on November 7, and which the United
rM carried, was not a 'rumor or a
report'; it was a bulletin furnished to
the admiral as official and so given to
Jtoy W. Howard, president of the
United Press, made the foregoing state
ment upon his return to New York
Wednesday, after having spent yester-
fflay In Washington, where he conferred
jwun secretary oi uu avy Lfinieia una
'Dlher government officials, following
his return to the United States on a
government transport.
jThe bulletin was given to us In wrlt

There was no more ground for doubting
fiLdmlral Wilson's source of news than
jttterti would have been for doubting the
apiaiement naa u come iropi aarnai
oon,- conunuea iiowara.
"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. The report was current in both
encn ana American army circiew in
rest when I arrived that morning to
bark for the United States.
f "I put in the entire day endeavoring

Vitil 4 o'clock in the afternoon that Ad
miral Wilson wss notified on What he
ated was official authority and on
hnt I know he had every reason to be-
ve was official authority, that the
mlstlco had been signed.
"The announcement had been made
by the local "Brest newspaper and the
civilians, sailors and soldiers had their
celebration vnder full headway before I
waa able to get from Admiral Wilson
jjersonally a copy of hia written an
nouncement and his personal assurance
that the bulletin waa official.
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. "Upon my return to the United States
I learned that no news had been pub
lished here of the fact that celebrations
of the signing of the armistice took place
on November 7 at practically all the
army and naval bases on the French
coast
"I was also surprised to learn that
nothing had reached here by cable
concerning the fact that all Parla had
the report of the armistice being signed.
At the American luncheon club meet
ing In Paris on that day. the toast
master arose, and with Admiral Ben
son seated on one side of him, and
American Consul General Thacker on
the other, announced on what he said
was the authority of the American
embassy that the armistice had been
signed.
"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.
Two Armlntlee Delegation!
"Neither has any explanation been
offered yet as to what became of the
first German armistice delegation
headed by Von Hints, which was re
ported to have reached the French lines
on November 6, and which then disap
peared from the news, being supplanted
by the Ersberger plenipotentiaries.
"Some of these matters will be cleared
up after peice"l signed."
Howard called upon Secretary Dan
iels yesterday to express his apprecia
tion of the courage and squareness of
Admiral Wilson In furnishing the
United Press with a signed statement
assuming full responsibility for the
bulletin which started, the wonderful
American celebration of November 7.
