Some had always had their doubts as to the reality of German military might, anyway. TOMORROW will mark the thirtieth anniversary of the ending of the first world war even as the shadows of international hostility darken' the world. On this Remembrance Day, the thoughts of millions will go out to the 100,(KX) graves in France, Jielgium, Holland, Italy, Britain, Japan, Hong Kong and elsewhere that tangibly represent the national sacrifice in two conflicts. The ritual that has become tradition will speak its solemn voice from coast to coast, in cities, towns, and hamlets. The two minutes of silence, the bugle, . the laying of the wreaths, the hymn, the hushed reverence will unfold around the local monuments. Poubts and fears may haunt every moment of ceremony. Yet all is not despair. Even in the darkest day's news there are the rays of hope. In Ottawa, a Russian military attache will take his place in the line of foreign representatives who place their wreaths. He will be dressed in the brown uniform of his country. Thirty years ago today the "Cease Fire" command ended World War V And on that day we honored those who had fallen in the service of our country. Today, added to that honor roll are those who gave their lives in the second great world conflict. It is not enough on another Armistice Dav tomorrow toh onor the brave dead of two wars by bowing our heads in prayer, Only by each of us working assiduously tQ prevent another war working to build an everlasting Peaee--can we pay them deserving tribute. Surelv we must all be imbued with the horrors that another war would bring the almost certain realization that it would be the end of civilization in ; a conflict of atomic devastation almost beggaring the ability of imagination. .

B.ix U84 'BRITISH COMMONWEALTH THE Toronto Globe' and Mail, which is anything-but anti-British and certainly not anti-Conservative, discusses the proposal to eliminate the word "British" from the term "British Commonwealth." U puts the matter in part a follows: The purpose of abandoning the word "British" in the official designation of the society is so that the peoples who have learned our ways can meet us and deal with us on a wide area of common ground and will not be embarrassed hy ap artificial classification that does not apply to them. Ancient symbols and classifications are of the highest value. in preserving unity where they speak the same messige to all who behold them. They become an embarrassment to unity when they say one thing to some and another thing to others. The Conference of Commonwealth Prime Ministers in London has ordered no constitutional changes nor taken anything of value away from the The group. British association is still as close as ever for those who belong in the British tradition The Crown, which symbolizes the continuity of the British evolutionary process and under which we have flourished mightily still stands as an object of reverence to those who have learned to revere it. All that has happened is that a gesture has been made toward those with whom we have much in common but not all It is a courteous, brotherly gesture in the tradition of tolerance ad concilation that is more British than the word Iself. Hence this great British civilization will go from strength to strength gathering support as it goes. THE RED DEAN Thousands of people; are turning out 1 nightly in Ontario to listen for ninetv minutes to Very Rev, Hewlett Johnson, the' Dean of Canterbury, He is also known as "the Red Dean." Officially, there is no direct opposition to his presence in Canada. Certain groups, or organizations have protested, because of his platform views concerning Soviet Russia. His Hamilton address the first given in this country, made it clear that, while his attitude toward the Soviet Is friendly, he has at least made out a balanced and reasoned nosition. Many of us may not agree with him but its noticeable that most of people are interested in what he has to say. AS ANNOUNCED IY TUf MINISTER OF FINANCE THE REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE USE OF ?
