The coun- cil had before it and examined fully, it is added, the facts relative to what took place with regard to the ships at the time the armistice was signed.
 The following statement, the news agency says, may be regarded as an official explanation:
 'At the time of the signing of the armistice, the British admiralty and the British government strongly urged that the German ships should be sur rendered, The French military authori- ties, however, put forward the view that for the purposes of the armistice the surrender of the German ships was not absolutely essential. They were most anxious that the armistice should be concluded, having regard for the serious loss of life daily on the western front. Insistence upon surrender of the fleet, they felt. might delay the signing for which, despite rumorS to the contrary, Marshal Foch was as desirous as anyone.
 "The French therefore. suggested that the German ships be lnterned IT neutral ports. This view was sup ported by Admiral Benson (Americar naval representative in Paris).
