Brooke, | the architect of this building of which we are 5o justly proud and to his asso- s, Nathan Wyeth and Horace W. 'e. Their skill and devoted serv- ices were a noble contribution to our tribute of today. “We feel that this memorial fittingly typifies_the pride and love in which we hold the 26,000 men and women from the District who served their jcountry in the armed forces of the Great War and more especially of the 499 of Washington's sons and daugh- | ters who gave their lives in that service.

The Marine Band provided a brilliant and colorful spot in its location to the south of the Memorial as it opened its concert_promptly at 10:40 o'clock A large crowd had assembled by this time and listened with interest to the concert which continued until 11 o'clock. The scene was further made colorful by the presence of color guards from all the armed services and Ifrom the vet- erans’ organizations of the World War. Some of these flags were located on the Memorial steps, on the Memorial itself between the marble columns, while other color guards were grouped about the Memorial on either side, forming a background for the speaker’s stand. At 11 o'clock the Band struck up “Hail to the Chief,” and the President, accompanied by his aides, arrived from the entrance to the north of the Me- morial. The President was accompanied by Mrs. Hoover. They took their places in the speaker’s stand and the President waited there .during the preliminaries. Ceremonies Delayed. In deference to the great radio audi- ence, which received these ceremonies over both th National Broadcasting Co., and the Columbia Broadcasting System networks, there was a perceptible pause just before Lieut. Col. U. S, Grant, 3d, director of Public Buildings and Public Parks, rose to introduce Mr. Noyes, the chairman. ‘When the American people from coast to coast had thus been tuned in on the dedication, the program went forward. The invocation was pronounced by Chaplain Benjamin J. Tarsky, U. 8. A. John Phillip Sousa, the famous band master, received a round of applause when he arose to lead the Marine Band in “The Stars and Stripes Forever.” ‘While he waved the baton the audience listened in silence and a pleasant smile played over the face of the 77-year-old ‘Washingtonian who had returned to help dedicate the War Memorial in his own home city. He was dressed in uni- form of a lieutenant commander of the Navy, to which rank he was promoted following the leadership during the World War of the naval band at Great Lakes, IIl. President Receives Memorial. Mr. Noyes than presented the memorial for dedication to the President. The President receiyed the memorial, and delivered his address of dedication. During_the President’s speech, the clouds, which had prevailed all morn- ing, cleared away and sunshine broke through the haze to brightly illumine the scene. As the President ended his address a wreath was placed on the memorial as a tribute from the whcle District of Columbia by Mrs. George Gordon Sei- i Gold Star Mothers. She was assisted by Col. Grant. Benediction was pronounced by Rev Arthur. L. Smith, department chaplain of the American Legicn. The ceremonies were comparatively brief, lasting altogether an even half hour—from 11 to 11:30 o'clock—when the strains of “The Star Spangled Banner” brought the dedication to a close. Hurley Accompanied President. Secretary of War Hurley and Secre- tary of Navy Adams were present, as well as many representatives of the diplomatic corps, and formal morning dress was prominent. Commissioner Lutfer H.Reichelderfer sat with Chairman Noyes on the speakers’ stand. The solemnity of the occasion was observed throughout the grove of lru‘sl and surrounding parkway, where a large throng had gathered. The stands were filled and the crowd spilled over far into the surrounding park from the spaces reserved for war veterans and the general public. ‘The mélitary organization represented & | included the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and National Guard, while there were also present in uniform the color guards of the American Legion. the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Dis- | abled American_ Veterans and the American Gold Star Mothers | Tre members of the Memorial Com- | mission are as follows: Frank B.

LONDON, November 11 lA"»kThe’ branch of the Royal Mint at Ottawa | was discontinued as of December 1 in| a royal proclamation issued yesterday | in the London Gazette. The proclamation noted that the Canadian Government had requested discontinuance of the branch and said the Dominion Parliament had made arrangements for minting coin for Canada. The ruling provides that all coin turned out by the branch before De- cember 1, which is legal tender in any part of the Dominion, shall not be withdrawn from circulation as & result of the proclamation. - Hoover’s Address (Continued From First Page) cause and to renew resolves that the peace for which these men sacrificed themselves shall be maintained However great our desire for peace, we must not assume that the peace for which these men died has become assured to the world or that the ob- ligations which they left to us, the living, have been discharged. The minds of many races still are stirred by memories of centuries of injus- tice; in cthers there is ever present the fear of invasion and domina- tion; many peoples are filled with hopes of liberty and independence. The boundarizs of many nations are but zones of age-old contention. The growth of population and economic striving press against the borders of others. ~World-wide expansion of commerce and industry, with its vast interchange of citizens, brings the daily obligation of self-respecting nations to see that their nationals abroad in pacific pursuits shall not be unjustly imperiled as to life and property. In every country men can securc public attention and even a living by stirring malignant forces of fe nd hate of their neighbors. As a result of these forces the world is more heavily armed than even before the great war. All of these dangers present to statesmen a world where peace can- not be had by resolution and injunc- tion al Peace is the product of preparedness for defense, the patient settlement of controversy and the dynamic development of the forces of good will. It is the result of the delicate balance of that realism born of human experience and of idealism born of the highest of human aspirations for international justice. The backwash of forces loosened by the great war has grown until during the past two years the sta- , bility ‘of many nations has been greatly shaken. This, with their fears and discouragement for the future, weakened confidence through- out the whole financial and eco- nomic world. That loss of confi- dence added enormously to unem- ployment. to the distress of agricul- ture and business everywhere. From it all we have been passing through an emergency second only to the great war, But the emergency has brought a realization that the outstanding problem of statesmanship today in every country and in every part of the ‘world is to re-establish confi- dence, not alone each nation in its own institutions, but among nations. And no greater contribution can be made to economic relief than day- to-day conclusive demonstration that progress is being made in relieving stress and strain which now 50 op- press the atmosphere of the family of nations. Such action requires no_treaties, no documents and no commitments. It requires only that each nation realize the situation that exists; that it contribute in its own policies and within its own best interest to the building of good will and the re- building of confidence. That progress is being made. It has been made by frank, sincere and direct personal conferences on mu- tual problems betwesn heads of states thrcughout the world. It has been made by similar action among the financial, industrial and social institutions of the world. These dis- cussions have developed common ac- tion and have increased good will and confidence. ‘These consistent efforts are providing new avenues of relief and are assuredly turning the tide for a greatly suffering world. It is by bullding good will and constructive effort among nations that we can best honor the memory of the men who died that the world should have peace. This monument stands for men who fought not alone for their country, but to establish the prineiples of justice and peace. We pay tribute here to their valor. We honor them for their sacrifice. We respect their memory by renew- Ing our obligations to the purposes and ideals for which they fought. gt = More than a quarter of a million stu- dents are enrolled in London's “Uni- versity of After Dark.” These night courses range from glass-blowing and poultry l'lleng to German renaissance art, the classes being held in 230 in- stitutions and attended by students Whose daily work is or has been in en= tirely different fialds. | town “on " the ARMISTICE DAY | | | | | |King George Is Kept Indoors. | | Doumer and King Albert | Join in Ceremonies. \ | By the Associated Press. LONDON, November 11.—Troops | were on the march again today across Europe, but it was the shuffiing half- step of companies and regiments whose battles were fought 13 years ago. In Paris and Brussels, in every little | Continent and here in | London Armistice day brought its | solemn ritual once more, dedicated to the memory of those who died in the Great war. A cold wind kept King George in- doors, but the Prince of Wales placed a wreath at the foot of the Cenotaph in Whitehall, while his mother, Queen Mary, and the Duke of _Gloucester watched from a window. It was two years ago that the bareheaded King caught the cold which resulted in a long and serious iliness As Big Ben struck the first chime at 11 o'clock there were two minutes of silence. “Last Post” was sounded by the Guards Band and a_crowd of many | thousands sang the hymn, “Oh God | Our Help in Ages Past.” The band struck into a quickstep and the veterans marched off to war- time tunes In Paris President Paul Doumer, who lost four s-ns in the war, placed a wreath on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier of France at the Arch of Tri- umph. The band of the National Re- publican Guard played “The Marseil- laise,” the trops of the Paris garrison stood at attenticn and the nation ob- served a minute of reverent silence. This evening Gen. Gouraud will re- kindle the flame at the Unknown War- rior's Tomb and bugler's will sound “Taps,” a call recently adopted by the French army. Albert, King of the Belgians, played his part in the ceremonies at Brussels, where deputations from nearly every regiment of, the army were present. Ceremenfes were held also at Lisbon and Bucharest. Italy, which celebrated the Armistice with Atisiria a week ago, observed this day as the birthday of | the King. Warsaw and Prague had | their own Armistice services. In Germany some newspapers mark- ed the day with bitter editorials against the “war guilt lie” and the Versailles treaty. Vienna and most of the Balkans did not observe the day and in Russia work in the factories and on the farms | went on as usual. Sir Metedith Whittaker Dies.
