Nation to Pause

The nation pauses Wednesday to
salute the memory of men who
died in battle over the years de-
fending those cherished principles
Of liberty the living hold so dear

Many Head
For Holiday
Across U.S.
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Thousands of holiday travelers
set out Tuesday to pursue pleas-
ure in town or country on Memo-
rial Day.
They headed for resorts, races,
baseball games, beaches, moun-
tains and visits with kinfolk.
The National Safety Council
figured that, at one time or an-
other Wednesday, almost all of
the nation’s 76 million registered
vehicles will be in motion.
The council has estimated that
as many as 120 or as few as 80
Americans could lose their lives
in traffic accidents in the period
that began at 6 p.m. (local time)
Tuesday and will end at midnight
Wednesday. The toll, the experts
reckoned, wood rise or fall in
keeping with the degree of com-
mon sense employed by motorists.
There have been two other one-
day celebrations of Memorial Day
since World War II—on days that
occurred on or near midweek.
The low in single-day fatalities
was reached in 1951, when 81
persons died in traffic accidents
and a total of 129 perished in acci-
dents of all types. The high for
Although born of the ravages of
the Civil War, Memorial Day has
elevated the sentiments of the
living above geographical and
political partisanships and stands
as a shining example-of Ameri-
can union.
President Kennedy has asked V
that the hour of 11 a.m. be set
aside in each locality as a time W
for prayer. 1
Memorial Day each year
provides a fitting occasion upon
which Americans may not only 9
pay tribute to our honored dead a
but also unite in prayer for sue
cess in our search for a just and •
lasting peace," the President said, s
Perhaps the largest single trib- H
ute to the war dead will take H
place at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, E
where a gently vaulting structure
rides astirde the twisted, sea-worn
hulk of the USS Arizona, a tomb B t
for more than 1,100 sailors and ■
Marines who died without a
chance to fight.
This Memorial Day symbol, a
bitter memory of December 7, 1
1941, will be dedicated by Rep

of the House Veterans Affairs
Committee. 1
