The momentous decision of the Brit-

world has been waiting, came before
the expiration of the time limit set by
Great Britain in h?r ultimatum to Ger-
many demanding a satisfactory reply-
on the subject of Belgian neutrality.
Germany’s reply was the summary
rejection of the request that Belgian
neutrality should be respected
The British Ambassador at Berlin
thereupon revived his passports, and
