FRANCE MAKES SHRINE OF CAR
SCENE OF SIGNING ARMISTICE
Luxurious Shed Houses
Historic Railway Coach
in Forest
By HAROLD ETTLINGER
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, Nov. II. QUP)-To-
day / visited the dining car in
which the Armistice was signed.
It stands deep in the Compiegne
forest so miles from Paris in
luxurious shed such as no diner
ever had before, groomed and
polished and guarded by a limp
| ing veteran who once a year wears
many medals.
This diner is a place Of pill
grimage, visited by people from
all over the world who stand in
awe before it, unable to compre-
bend the events which led to it's
fame. They walk silently down
the aisle betwene the cars neatly
arranged chairs and tables and try
to project themselves seventeen
years into the past, when on the
spot where they stand one Of the
most momentous events of mod
ern times took place.
The car is diner No. 2419-D.
On an icy November morning in
1918 two hours before dawn, with
the darkness of the sky broken
by flashes of shell fire and the
rural silence shattered by re-
sounding guns, four Germans. two
Frenchmen and two Englishmen
stood by it's tables and affixed
their signatures to the document
that ended the most disastrous
war of all time.
FOCH SENT ORDER
A few moments later Marshal
Foch sent out the following or
der:
"Hostilities will cease on the
whole front as from Nov. II at
II o'clock, French time. The
allied troops will not, until
further order, go beyond the
line reached on that date and
at that hour"
In 1918 that obscure corner of
the royal Campiegne forest was
even more peaceful than today.
1t was known only to few rail-
road men as the junction of Reth-
ondes-two stumps of track turn
ing off into the forest from the
main line near the Disc River, a
few feet from a cool, shaded
road.
Today it is bordered by green
avenues which lead to diner 24l9-
DIS luxurious shed. In the center
is a huge granite ring at the ex-
act spot where the armistice was
signed. At the entrance to the
clearing stands a monument which
shows a proud Gallo cock crow
ing its signal of victory, while be-
low lies a dead and crumpled
German eagle.

Rev. B. E. Jones Addresses
Large Audience at
Memorial Service
WHITMIRE STATES
IDEALS OF LEGION

The annual memorial service,
under the auspices of the City
Ministers association, sponsored
by the American Legion for World
war dead, was held last night at
the high school auditorium With
large congregation in attendance.
Nthan Patla, commander of HUI
bert M. Smith post, American Lee
gion, presided.
The program was opened with
an invocation by the Rev. James
P. Burke, rector of st. James
Episcopal church, followed by the
singing of Beethoven's "The Heav-
ems Are Telling" by a combined
choir, with Miss Mary Brooks as
accompanist.
DR.. E. X. McLarty, pastor of
the Methodist church, read the
scripture lesson from the 18th
chapter of Hebrews. and prayer
by DR.. L. T. Wilds, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, and a solo
by Alva Lowe, tenor, "When the
Soldiers Go Marching Into Pic
cardy,' completed the preliminary
program.
Principal speakers of the eve
ming were r. Lee Whitmire, men,
Der of the local Legion post, and
the Rev. Broadus E. Jones, pastor
of Il = Baptist church.
Discussing the ideals of the
American Legion, Mr.. Whitmire
said that World war veterans
were moved to this action by two
of their most cherished ideals
one to keep alive and in fond and1
lasting memory those who gave
their lives to end the barbaric in
stitution of war, and the other to
create strong sentiment for
peace, which was accompanied by
a firm resolve that never again
should American blood and Amer
lean men be used in behalf of
either a foreign nation or nations.
Mr.. Whitmire said that the ma
ton cannot justify its last war,
but that the great lessons of that
conflict nevertheless were worth |
their cost. War, he declared, in
almost every instance, has accom-
plished nothing. The place for the |
American army is on its own soil.
eff we have learned these two
lessons, who can say that America
has not been made better place
in which to live?" he questioned.
"These men who are here, and
who wore the uniforms stand
ready to make covenant with
YOU mothers" he declared, ito
stand by you in any attempt TO I
prevent future wars"
In the last war, he declared,
blood was drafted and money
made the profit of guilt-edged
security.
eve serve notice on the gov
eminent that the same govern
ment that in future conscrlpts
John Smith must cOnscrlpt the
wealth of the nation"
The Rev. Broadus Jones, III
his message took for his text a
passage from the 5Sth Psalm
"And princes shall come out or
Egypt and Ethiopia shall stretch
forth its hand to God" The speak
er interpreted the ancient episode
to which this scriptural passage
gave rise. Egypt, proud ana
powerful nation. armed with the
greatest and most modern army

Four Laymen To Be
 Named Here To Get
 Campaign Underway
Drive Planned to Promote More Activities Among Par- ish TrOps 70 Organization of New Units Urged
 Marston to Lend Cooperation to Churches

4 carefully organized drive to promote scouting activities among Catholic parishes of the city ss part of a statewide campaign will be launched shortly with the ap- pointment of a committee of four prominent laymen interested in boys work, 1t was announced to- day by Arthur D. Marston, chief executive of the Waterbury Boy Scout council. The announcement to-day confirms a recent article in The Democrat.
 Following a request from Bishop Maurice F. McAuliffe that Catholic parishes in every community of the state revive interest in the scout movement and that new troops be organized wherever poS- sible, the duties of the local com mittee will be to promote interest in scouting among Catholic boys and to attend to organization de- tails.
 Newtown Priest Director
 Under the general chairmanship of Rev William J. Collins of New town, similar committees are be. ing formed throughout the state Father Collins has been given a list of Waterburians considered eligible for the membership and will make his selection known to MT Marston c in the near future.
 It is expected that every parish in the city not actively sponsor ing a troop at this time will be urged to do 30. The committee appointed locally will cooperate with the chief executive in the organization work.
 Communication official
 The official communication sent by Bishop McAuliffe to priests of the diocese, published to-day in the Catholic Transcript, is as fol- lows:
 Dear Father:--
 The Youth movement is oc- cupying the attention of leaders in religious and civic, life throughout the country. Every effort is made to interest our youth in the higher, nobler and better things of life. This Is especially true where re- ligious Ideals are kept steadily be- fore the mind of growing youth. The church has always availed her. self of every laudable means to promote the care and development of her children. The bishops of the United States have expressed Lnvlr appTeClatlOu ana approval or the Boy Scouts Organization of America and urged it's extension to all Catholic parishes.
 The executives of the Boy Scouts Organization, after careful study and frequent conferences, endorsed the formation of Catholic Scout Troops as distinct units, but affili- ated with the National Organiza- tion.
 ask your cooperation in this important work. A Diocesan com- mittee has been selected which will govern the Catholic Scout activj- ties under the leadership of the Rev William J. Collins.
 Please organize a parish com mittee of at least four laymen, one of whom will attend weekly meet ings. Select prospective scout- masters and consult the scout mas ter in the area where the parish is located. All further communica- tions should be sent to the Dio- cesan Director of Catholic Boy

but she will probably recover, said pr Richard Hinchey after court tkis morning. He stated that the woman is suffering from a con- cussion of the brain, possible frac- tured ribs, and many bruises about the head and body. Her eyes were blackened, the doctor said, and much of her face and head is black and blue.
 No Medical Aid
 The alleged assault took place last Saturday and Mrs Berry re- ceived no medical aid from that time till. yesterday, when Police Supt Joseph H. Mclean sent pr Hinchey to her. home. Mrs Berry refuses to go to the hospital and Is being treated at her home.
 Police first heard of the alleged beating Wednesday and Supt Me- Lean ordered the immediate arrest of Berry. Bond was set at $2500 in city court yesterday when Pros ecutor Joseph Nagle said the wo- mans condition was resious, and was raised today when the charge was changed to that of assault with intent to kill.
 Berry's case was continued un- til next Friday, but 1t is consid- cred doubtful that the woman will be able to testify by that time. Berry has been unable to raise the bond and is Q police prisoner.

the country, and if am to believe what the news-dealers tell me, this periodical has an extensive circula- ton. This newspaper is promoting various communistic groups and is now working in the establishment of so-called workers schools in Washington, D. c. Some of the schools have already been organ ized in some of our larger cities, such as New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco, and they are now attempting such an enterprise here in Waterbury.
 Free Speech
 "The legion is constantly being charged with opposing free speech. This charge primarily grows out of their demands that the public au- ditoriums of our schools, paid for and maintained by our taxpayers, must not be used by the subversive groups who at any time have ad- yocated the overthrow of the American form of government by revolution. Certainly the commit nists find that our right of free speech, extended to them here in the U. S., is used more freely than fin their own Soviet Russia today. Only recently we were notified by press dispatches of more than one hundred persons put to death for the assassination of one official in Soviet Russia without the right of trial, as they would have today in the U. s.. In the very country that they held up as an example, Rus sia, they do not know what free speech is. We believe that free speech ends where treacherous as- srtions and acts against the gov ernment calling for its overthrow begin.
 "It is only short time ago when some of these active com munists here in Waterbury carried on demonstrations at the city hall and the local Mutual Aid and put out threats of organizing school children in their cause. recall demonstrations that the commit nists have staged in the past. but we are fortunate here in Water bury to have an able and forecful superintendent of police who, with his subordinates. has been able to handle such demonstrations in an effective manner"
