WILLIAM L. SHIRER The whole thing has taken but a quarter of an hour — this great reversal of a historical armistice of only a few years ago. CBS Announcer. — You have just heard a special broadcast from the Compidgne Forest in France where on the historic morn¬ ing of November n, 19x8 representatives of the German army received from the Allies the terms of the armistice which ended the first World War, and where today, June 21, 1940, representatives of the French government received from Fuhrer Adolf Hitler the terms under which a cessation of hostilities between Germany and France may be reached. As you know, the actual terms presented to the French plenipotentiaries have not yet been made public. Music. — Organ. Announcer. — This is the Columbia Broadcasting System. 345
