§ Captain TRYONasked the Secretary of State for War why the map of the Balkans which the War Office has placed in the Tea Room is printed in Germany and in the German language?
§ Colonel SEELYThe map in question was selected as giving a good general strategical area on the most convenient256W scale for the purpose required, and it was not considered that the fact of the names being printed in a foreign language would offer any serious difficulties to Members. A map with names in English characters is available, but it is on such a much larger scale that room could not conveniently be found for it in the Tea Room.
