WAR VETERANS TO
HONOR DEAD HEROES
Memorial Day to Be Observed
' Throughout the World by
American Legion.

Their More Fortunate Comrades

ftnternntlonai News Service).
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. May 2(1
Memorial Day. May 30, will be gen
erally observed throughout tho world
this year ss a result, in large part,
of the efforts of the American Ieg-
Orlginally designated by the Union
veterans of the Civil War as a par
ticular Decoration Day for their fall
en comrades, May 30 gradually has
become a day set apart in memory
of all Americans who died for their
country. Although it has long been
the custom of many southern states
to observe a memorial holiday of
their own on April 26 the tendency
to a uniform observance has been
apparent since the World War. The
Legion, composed of northern and
louthern representatives, officially
adopted May 30 as It Memorial Day.
and posts of the World War men on
both Bides of the Mason-Dixon line
have for the last three years simul
taneously honored their dead of the
Civil, Spanish-American and World(
wars.
When the Inter-Allied Veterans'
federation, made up of World War
veterans of France England Cana
da, Italy and others of the Allied
nations and of which the Legion Is a
member, adopted the Legion's date
for the observance of ritos for the
dead, May 30 become an internation
al holiday, comparable only In uni
versal observance to Christmas.
World-Wide Observance.
This year it will be observed by
Legion rposts and Allied veterans'
organizations in the following coun
tries other than the United States:
Canada' Belgium, France, Poland,
Turkey, Mexico, Argentina. , Brazil,
British Isles, Chile, China, Cuba,
Guatemala, Japan, Peru. Porto Rico,
Portuguese West Africa, Santo Do
mingo. Spanish Handuras, India,
Venezuela' and In the Canal Zone.
Hawaii, Philippine Islands and the
territory of Alaska.
As it did last year and the year
before, the Legion will decorate and
hold appropriate exercises over the
grave of every American who sleeps
on foreign soil, as well as thus hon
oring the graves of American and Al
lied veterans who are burled in the
cemeteries of this country. Legion
posts in France, Belgium. Poland
and Turkey will visit old battlefields
and adjacent cemeteries.
The United States graves registra
tion service has completed its huge
task of returning to this country the
bodies of 4 2,02.1 of the A. E. F. who
died overseas, but 30,000 Americans
will remain permanently burled In
cemeteries of the Allied nations.
To finance the Memorial Day dec
orations of graves overseas each of
the Legion's 11,000 posts was asked
to subscribe an amount equal to five
fr.'nes for each of its members. A
central committee of the Legion In
France will receive the funds from
this country and have charge of
decorating Ihe individual graves.
Honor All Heroes.
The Legion, will confine Its ex
ercises and decorations to the mem
ory of World War heroes alone. The
graves of all veterans of all Ameri
can wars will be visited. Last year
the organization requested Its posts
and units of the Legion Auxiliary to
seek out In each community graves
of all American soldier and sailor
dead and to prepare charts showing
where such graves were locited and
bow thev could be reached. The ef
forts of the World War men have re
sulted in many graves of Civil War
veterans being rescued from obscuri
ty and the graves of several veter
ans of 1812. long since forgotten,
have been found and restored.
A similar plan of keeping i close
and honored watch on graves of
Americans burled overseas has been
evolved. There will be In France
four principal cemeteries wherein
men of the A. E. F. will sleep for
ever At present a special Fine Arts
commission Is working on the pro
ject which will entail, for the col
lection of bodies and the beautifica
tion of cemeteries ,an expenditure of
th.-.n II 000.000. These fields
Inf honor will be located In Belleau
Wood, near Chateau-Thierry; Bony.
near St. Quentln. P-iresnes. near
i Paris and Romagne. In the Argonne
near Mcntfaucnn. More than BOO
I Americans will remain buried I In
i Fngland. A gift of land by the Brit
ish government allows for the future
I de-oration and care of these graves.
