 An empire-widc two minute si- lence vas observed at II a. m., while King George, symbolizing the grief of his realm at the var losses, stood with bowed head in prayer at the cenotaph, where just two years ago today he caught the cold which led to his long and serious illness.
 King George stood between his sons, the Prince Of Wales and the Duke of York, with the prime min isters of the dominions and the princes of the Indian states flank ing them, to make a group truly representative of the British coIn- monwealth of nations
 Guns Fire salute
 Around them and the hollow square in Whitehall as far as the vision could penetrate through the gray haze toward Trafalgar square people were massed in unbroken sl- lence, As the chimes of Big Ben on the parliament towers crashed out the hour q salute Of guns in Horse Guards parade signalled beginning of the great silence.
 Nearly every man, woman, and child in the country wore a l'land- CTS poppy emblem made by former service men on behalf of the vet erans' funds. King George and Queen Mary bought theirs just like other folk from some Of the volun- teer army of 500000 who sold the tokens.
 Response Generous
 Outside Westminster Abbey there is a field Of remembrance planted around d white cross which once marked an unknown soldiers gra.e in France. As the veterans sold the peoples they were stuck in the ground near the cross until it was surrounded with a blanket of red.
 Everywhere there vas generous response to the appeal of the Prince of Wales for aid for the wars dis- abled.
 In the three great houses Of por- ship which are the landmarks of re- ligious Westminster Ab- bey, St. PauI's Cathedral, and West minister Cathedral-the spiritual fervor of the day found high ex- pression.
 The ancient abbey particularly was the shrine of the women of England who thronged silently into the vast structure 10 pay tribute to the dead at the tomb of the un- known soldier there.

 If you read the ncwspapcrs 12 years ago today, you probably read:
 The greatest war in history end- cd this morning at 6 o'clock Wash ington time, after 1,567 days of hor- TOT, during which virtually the whole civilized world has been con- vulscd
 Announcement of the tremen- dous event was made at the state department at the capital at 2:45 0 o'clock this morning.
 The news of the armistice was but q few hours old when one war time organization, the American Victory Union, telegrap phed President Wilson suggesting that November Il be made a legal holiday to be known as Victory Day" Another News Story
 Another news story of 12 years ago said
 The war so gloriously ended to- day by the surrender of Germany endured four years, three months and , days of carnage, cruelty, sac rifice, suffering, heroism and high purpose such as the world had never known.
 .. Now that it is over human ity will be years reckoning the cost in money and human resources. It is generally accepted, however. that the war produced casualties of 27,- 615,o0e at the lowest possible esti- mate; and that the money burden sGddlcd upon the warning nations will rise to two hundred billion dol

12 Years Pass

New York, Nov. II P,-Thc greatest news ever written was 12 years old today at 2;46 a. n., east ern standard time.
 Only two words to tell it-a com mon noun and q passive verb. Only a few seconds were needed to send it racing across telegraph wires 10 the ends of the land. Only a few moments were required to put it in bold black lines across the front pages of a thousand newspapers; and only a few more moments for America 10 read those headlines and be transported into an hysteria of joy.
 "Armistice Signed"
 Just common noun and a pas sive verb:
 "Armistice signedi'
 Out of that simplest of all sen- tences and greatest of all news items there sprouted hundreds of thousands Of words; words descrip- tive of the signing, of the reaction of people in various lands: of cele- brations, of plans for the new peace. But though the flowery adjec- lives flew and the agile adverbs leap cd across q million printed pages. they all were rooted in the simple sentence: L-.-.

 The president and his wife were accompanied to Arlington by Sccrc- 'aries Hurley and Adams and Major General Charles P. SummeralI. chief Of staff of the army.
 Refers to Treaties In his Armistice Day address, the president pointed out the various treaties and methods that had been TCrked out for peaceful settlement O the difficulties among the nations 0: the world
 Tn the development Of methods Of pacific settlement, a great hope lies in ever extending thes body anI | principles of international law ol i which such settlements will be based he said. The world court Is now a strongly established institu- ! lon amongst 4 nations as a con- t'nuing body, performing and facili :. tatlng justifiahle determinations which can only be accom- plishel sporadlcally under special treaties of arbitration. It's permanence is assur- cc and from it there is steadily growing a body of precedent, dcci- slons, and acceptance of law in the 1 formulation of which we should 1 have part, not alone in our own lTterest but in advancement Of peace
 "A year ago I made suggestion Of practical contribution in settle ment of an age-old controversy ot freedom Of the seas. proposed that food supplies should be made immune from interference in time of war, and that the security of such supplies should be guaranteed by neutral transport and management. I proposed it not alone upon humane ! grounds but that the haunting fears ot nations who must live from over the sea might be relaxed and the sacrifices which they make for naval strength might be lessened. Our fC cd supplies are assured and it is therefore from us 8. disinterested proposal. It would make for pre- vention as we'll as limitation of war
 We. as a nation whose independ- rEce, liberties, and securities were born of war. can not contend that there never is or never will be right

eous cause for war in the world. Nor can we assume that righteous ness has so advanced i'll the world that we may yet have complete con- fidence in the full growth of pacific means or rest solely upon the pro cesses Of peace for defense.
 Fidelity Needed
 with the progress the world has made in the installation Of the methodical processes for the settle ment of controversies, the larger problem emergcs as 10 fidelity 10 agreement to use these methods The thought and anxiety of the world is rightly directed to the qucs- ton as to what the nations of the world will do in case Of a failure to use them. It is useless for us to say that we have no interest in such events"
 The president also pointed 10 the Kellogg -Briand pact for outlawin-; var and the development of other treaties among nations as methods e fostering peace
 He recalled recent discussions as 10 the desira bility Of extending the Kellogg Briand pact to insure mo- h;lIzation Of world opinion against those who fail to abide by it.
 'T do not say that some such further step may not some day come about" he said. Such 6 formula would be stimulative and would ap- pear to the dramatic sense Of the world as a mark in the progress Of ptaCc. But less dramatic and pos sibiv even more sure is the day-to- day strengthening and buttressing Of the pact by extension from one ma tion 10 another of treaties which, ill times of friction, assure resort to Wcll-tried processes of competent negotiation, of conciliation, and or arbitration.
 Condemns Criticisms
 "The nations Of Europe, bordered as they are by age-old dangers of which we in the western hemisphere have little appreciation, beset as they are by long-inherited fears, be- litye that they must subscribe to methods which in the last resort will use force to compel nations to abide by their agreements to settle controversies by pacific means. We, i1 our great state Of safety and in dependence should make no criti- cism of their conclusion which arise from their necessities.
 But We believe that our contri- button can best be made in these emergencies, when nations fail to keep their undertakings of pacific settlement Of disputes, by our good offices and heIpfulness free from any advance commitment or en- tangiemcnt as 10 the character Of our action.
 Will Maintain Peace
 "The purpose Of our government is to cooperate with others. to use our friendly offices, and, short of any implication Of the use of force, to use every friendly effort and all good will 10 maintain the peace or the world"
 The president renewed his pro posal that food supplies should be made immune from interference in time of war, and that the security of such supplies should be guaran- tced by neutral transport and man. asement.
 He added that in adoption during the past year of the London naval tr eaty one of the ma jor frictions among the great naval powers competition in naval construction-- las been disposed Of.
