ENGLAND PAYS ITS WAR DEAD TRIBUTE
Americans In London Join In Armistice Days 0b-
 SerVanCe

LONDON, Nov. 11.-Crowds esti- mated as high as 100000 passed by the Cenotaph. England's monument to her war dead, in celebration of Armistce Day Sunday.
 Americans in London joined with pilgrims from all over Great Britain in celebrating the anniversary. The American embassy was represented at Westminster abbey by Post Wheel CT, charge de'affaires pending the ar rival of Ambassador-elect Kellogg, and others of the embassy staff. Off, ficers of the local American Legion were present at the Cenotaph, with representatives from the British Le- zion.
 As the anniversary fell on Sunday this year. the government at first decided to supplant the usual Ceno- taph services with ceremonies at the abbey. They feared protests from clergymen if the thousands of people went to the Cenotaph instead of to church.
 There was tremendous popular outcry and the government capitu- lated, It was decided that'the King should attend the abbey ceremony and the Prince of Wales should par ticipate in the service at the Ceno- taph.
 The crowds who filed by the mon ument in Whitehall, their heads barred and many of them carryins wreaths, grew during the day. Late Sunday evcoing they still lined the length of Wshltehall in double column, waiting to deposit their flowers on the monun erlt.

HURLEY MAY RUN TRY ID COLLECT FUR J. {. SENATE BOOZE D|V|DEND'
Former Shipping Board Head Is Being Groomed For
 MCCormiCk'S Place

CHICAGO. Nov. 11-Edward N. Hurley, former head of the United States shipping board. and president of the Hurley Machine company, has been picked by Illinois democratic leaders to run for the United States Senate in 1924, it was reported here Sunday night.
 Hurley, it is understood can have the party noaination if he wants it, and only his flat refusal to consider it will interfere with the plans of the democrats to place him in the seat now held by Senator Medill ,Mccor- mick.
 MeCormlcl1 is also expected to have opposition in his own fold, as former Gov. Charles Deneen is said to be planning to run in the republican primaries.
 Hurley became chairman of the shipping board after serving as chairman of the federal trade com mission, under Woodrow Wilson. He was a conspicuous figure in Wash ington and in various European cap itals during the World war, and is widely known as an authority on in- dustry, business and trade.

CHICAGO. Nov. 11.--Lieut. Ben jamin R. McBride. 26 years old, or Selfridge field, Mt. Clemons. Mich, was killed during an Armistice Day air meet at Ashburn flying field here today when his pursuit plane. flying about 135 miles an hour. plunged to the ground from height of about 15 feet
 Lieutenant Mcbride was flying low over the field while thousands watched, thrilling the spectators with the stunt known as "jazzing the clouds" While flying only 15 or 20 feet from the ground he tried to rise, but instead the plane plunged into the ground. Lieutenant McBride was removed from the wreckage quickly but died on the way to hospital,
 Lieutenant Mcbride, member of the first pursuit group of Selfridge Field. was flying Thomas Morse pursuit plane. Officers said they were at a loss to understand exactly how the accident occurred, as Lieu tenant Mcbride was one of the most careful flyers of the first pursuit group.
 He was the son of Colonel Mcbride, chief Of staff in the Panama canal zone, and graduated from West Point in 1918. He was in the infantry serv- ice with the army of occupation in Germany until 1920. when he took up IlylnB ana mas been llyIlS tHtc years. A wife and month old son at Mt. Clemens survive him. Mcbride was born in Atlanta, Ga.
 An accident similar to the one which killed Private A. Rasmussen at an air meet at Mitchell field, New York. yesterday, occurred when the TIC airship from Scott field. Belle vile, Ill.. attempted to land. The TIC dropped her anchor ropes over the landing crow, but the ship was light and started up again. Ihe command let go" was given. but one man evidently failed to hear the order, and he clung to the rope. The ship rose rapidly and jerked him up ward about 30 feet before he realized his plight and let go. He alighted Tn soft, watery mud hole. unlnJured
 McBrides death was the second one in all the meets held through out the country for the benefit or the Army Relief society. an orgam- zation which provides for the depen- dents of members of the air servlce killed.

 His Belief In The Liberties Guaranteed Under Constitu-

Organizations Which Seek To Tear Down The Structure Of American Government Are Menace, The Senator Hints

BOSTON, Nov. 11.-Those whC or eanize to discriminate against a citizen because of his belief se- k to destroy the constitution of the United States and to tear down the flag which symb "the sacred principles of our bill of rights" Senator oscar W. Underwood of Ala bama said in an Armistice Day ad- dress today Cn Boston Common.
 "The will of the majority may be- come tyrannical," Senator Under wood said, and may be the greatest enemy of the liberty of mankind so far as individual liberties are con- cerned. But the fathers of the consti- tuition curbed the power of the ma iority. They gave freedom to wor- ship Gcd according to the dictates of ones own conscience.
 "To the man who comes to this country, no matter from what far flung field, and takes on the duties of citizenship he assumes equal right with any citizen of the United States That is what our flag repre- sents It is still in the hands of our soldiers, for if they care nothing for these principles then they can hope for no one else to stand for this government. ..
 "When we are organized to dis criminate between citizens and are trying to raise a hand against the happiness of any citizens of the United States because of his belief. we are tearing down the structure of the American government the constitution of the United States and the bulWark of our happiness"

GROWN PRINCE HAS NOTREACHEDOELS
Announced In Official Quar- ters He Has Reached
 Hanover Neighborhood

BERLIN, Nov. 11.--(By Associated Press. .)-The present whereabouts of the disappearing German crown prince is not known, but it is an rounced in official quarters here that he spent Saturday night with friends on an estate near Hildesheim, in the neighborhood of Hanover, and would make a second break In his trip from IVieringen tonight, arriving some time Monday at Oels, where it is his intention to sojourn in his own castle.
 Frederick Williams departure from his island retreat and his entry into Germany do not seem to have caused the excitement in Berlin that might be expected. As it synchro . nizes with the Munich instruction and widespread clamor for dictatorship it has aroused considerable curosity, but popular opinion appears wholly disinclined to associate him with present or future nationalistic machinations, if only for the reason that he is viewed with being wholly out of the running" In that he is rot considered at liberty to any re- actionary enterprise.
 The former crown price is re- ported to have give the Stresemann Government something more precise than mere "gentleman's agree ment" that he intended to conduct himself wholly as a private burger and confine his activities to the limits set for a plain country squire.
