(By The Canadian Press)

Canada paid tribute to her Great War dead ‘Thursday in countless services bclore cenotaphs and memorials from coast to coast.

In city, town, village and hamlet citizens from the Marltimcs to British Columbia paused to re- member sacrifices of men who fought from 1914 to 1918. For two minutes at ll a.m. the voice of the nation was stilled in reverent remembrance.

“The implications oi’ ‘remem- brance spell the renunciation of war." Rt. Rev. L. Ralph Sherman, Anglican Bishop of Calgary. told s. memorial service in that south- ern Alberta city yesterday.

The solemn declaration lo listen- ing thousands typified Canada's at- titude as thousands upon thous- ands of citirlens stood before civic cenotaphs. in churches and other public buildings to pay tribute to the 60.661 Canadians who died in four years of war.

Lord Tweedsmuir, Governor- General, led the observance in the National Service at Ottawa.

In a. broadcast address Prime Minister MacKenzie King said last night in an appeal for peace: “We cannot strive too diligently to con- fine all areas of conflict."

Hon. C. G. Power, federal min- ister oi’ pensions, told a gathering of war Veterans in Ottawa: "The obligation of the Canadian people to its ex-soldiers.,.will persist until every just claim, every right acquired on the field of honor, has been established."

The National Memorial Service was attended by the Governor- Cieneral and Lady Tweedsmuir. Prime Minister King. members of the cabinetand of the diplomatic corps, and leaders in church and business.

Bright, crisp weather through- out Quebec and the Maritimes at- tracted throngs to the many civic services. In most cities. military parades followed or preceded the cenotaph ceremonies.

HAMILTON, Bennuds, Nov. ll —-(CP OableL-Naval authorities at Hamilton tonight were consider- lng despatching n warship oi the British West Indies squadron to meet the steamship Reina del Paclfico and take off the body oi Ramsay MacDonald. '

Previously, arrangements were underway here to have a guard of honor drawn from naval and army detachments meet the ship at Hamilton and accompany the bcdy either to Government House or Hamilton cathedral.

If the warship should meet the Reina and take off the body, it would continue on to England, it was said. Final plans depend on the wishes of Miss Sheila Mac- Donald who accompanled her father on the trip.

Diplomats of many countries made inquiries concerning the rc- portcd Fascist implications of Varagas‘ coup yesterday, in which ha dislulved .__res and pro- nlulgatcd a new constitution.

It was learned on good authority that the Italian and German en- voys had made overtures to gain Brazil's adherence to Lhc Itallun-

Remained From Service

At Paris the Duke of Windsor, last year central ﬁgure at the London ceremony, stayed alvay irom a British Armistice Day church service after the Anglican Rector, Rev. J. L. C. Dart, had said: "1 would rather the Duke did not sticnd." Later the Vicar apologized.

France held a. gigantic military and aerial review, centred around the Arc de Triomphe.

The Arlington Cemetery at Washington, where President Roosevelt placed a wreath on the tomb oi’ the unknown soldier, heard the National Commander of the American Legion call for re- moval of the profit motive from war, an adequate national defence and a. "proper policy of neutral- ity."

Armies Massed

In Spain Insurgents neared the zero hour of an attack that they hoped would bring them victory in the civil war. They said 700,- 000 men on the opposing sides would be involved in an impend- ing battle.

In Shanghai and North China the peace which Armistice Day symbolizes was a fantasy for hun- dreds of thousands of battle- stained soldiers whose dead and wounded were numbered with thousands oi civilian casualties. u

Italy's separate armistice had al- ready been observed earlier this month and yesterday was cele- brated as the 68th birthday 0i King Victor Emanuel.
