NOVEMBER 14
IS PROCLAIMED
i ARMISTICE DAY
, President Asks That Services Be
Held Throughout Nation In
t Remembrance Of Fallen
Heroes.
Washnigton, Oct. 9.?President
' Wilson today issued a proclamation
declaring Sunday, November 14,
Armistice Sunday. He asked that
i services be held throughout the nation
that date "as a special note of
remembrance for the services and
sacrifices of ithose who died for America
in the World War."
fhp Presi
W 11/11 LUC piutiamuuv. ....
dent issued an executive order directing
that the United States flag
be displayed at half mast at military
posts, naval stations or vessels
and buildings of the United States
on that day.
The President's proclamation follows:
'.'There has been transmitted to
me a suggestion that I name Sunday
November 14, as Armistice Sunday
in order that the religious services
held throughout the country on that
day be given an especial note of remembrance
for the heroic service
I
j and sacrifice of those who died for
America in the World War. The sej
lection of a formal day which shall
i annually be set aside to commemorjate
our participation in the Wor,d
; War will some day doubtless be ef
' fected through legislation, and al1
ready Memorial Day, rich in herioc
memories, has acquired additional
significance as being appropriate also
to th? commemoration of the heroes
of the Worltj War. I am, however,
so heartily in favor of the sug1
gestion that has been made that I
, take this occasion to express publici
ly my approval of the idea.
j "Nov. 11, 1918, will always be
i memorable as the beginning of the
: end of the most terrible and de|
structive of all wars. Our beloved
country took a noble part in hasten*
ing the arrival of the day-led by the
whoie world as the dawn of peace;
but close upon .the day of victory
.[followed the realization of loss and
the anniversary will bring with it
J solemn thoughts to the mind of
1 every American, memories of brave
men who fell, sympathy for their
living relatives, and those religious
'reflectious in which nations like in1
dividuals, must seek hope and conso:
lation. That November 14, this year,
1 being the. Sunday immediately following
the anniversary, should be
| observed in all our churches by suit'
able memorial, services for the heroic
American soldiers, sailors and
j marines who give their lives to their
country in the World War seems to
. me eminently fitting and proper and
; I commend the suggestion to those
who conduct such services.
J "I shall direct that the flag of the
I United States at all military posts,
j naval stations, on vessels and buildI
ings of the United States be dis'
a + V* o ! ? tv* o pf Ar> fV> o f v^ofo o C

1 a token of the nation's participation
in the exercises elsewhere held."
