Two Crypts Added to
ST LOUIS CASSELS
Vftrted Pres Correspondent
"Washington rtF Along
the side of the Tomb of the
tTuJtiwwn Soldier in Arling
lea National cemetery are
tv freshly-dug crypts.
They await the bodies of
t99 nameless servicemen who
tve their lives in World
'tr II and the Korean war.
The burial will take place
n Memorial day, May 30. It
.ill be as impressive as the
government can make it. No
official honor will be omitted.
But unless there is a sud
den change in public senti
ment it won't be like last
time. So far, the American
people haven't displayed
much interest in the forth
coming ceremony.
In 1921, when the unknown
soldier of World War I was
buried, the whole nation
joined in saluting him. It was
one of the great emotional
outpourings of U.S. history.
In it were mingled grief and
4atitude and a fervent be
lief that it would never,
never happen again.
Congresc Passes Bill
The 1914-18 "war to end
war" had been over for three
years. Britain and France had
set an example of honoring
, their dead by burying un
kribwn servicemen in nation
al shrines at Westminster Ab
bey and the Arc de Triomphe.
Congress had passed a bill
for America to do likewise.
The ceremonies were to
reach a climax in Arlington
cemetery on Armistic day.
Actually, they began nearly
three weeks earlier in an im-j
provised chapel in the

They contained unidentified

at Washington Navy yard, the
casket was placed on a horse
drawn artillery caisson and
taken to the rotunda of the
capitol to lie in state. Presi
dent Warren G. Harding and
Gen. John J. Pershing, com
mander of the American Ex
peditionary forces that had
fought in France, went to the
rotunda to place wreaths.
Then the public was allowed
to file past the troop guarded,
catafalque.
Thousands Pay Respects
Wreaths and sprays poured
in from patriotic organiza
tions and individuals so
many that the huge rotunda
became an almost solid bower
of flowers.
On Nov. 11, Armistice day,
residents, of the capital city
awoke to the thump-thump of
the guns at Ft. Myer, which
continued firing once each
minute for four hours.
The funeral procession left
the Capitol and moved down
Pennsylvania ave., past huge
crowds. A mounted escort of
cavalry led the way. Behind
them detachments of soldiers
and infantrymen marched at
slow time. Gen. Pershing and
other high ranking officers of
the Army and Navy followed
the casket.
While the procession was
moving across one of the two
bridges that then spanned the
Potomac river, ' President
Harding's limousine, en route
to Arlington on the Virginia
side of the river, was caught
in a -terrific traffic jam. Police
had to route him across a
bumpy field to get him out
of it.
Harding reached Arlington
Memorial Amphitheater at
11:50 a.m., on time, but slight
ly out of breath. The great
marble amphitheater, built in
1915, was already filled with
U.S. and foreign dignitaries.
The casket rested on a cata
falque near the front center.

Precisely at 2 p.m., blared
a triple call to attention. The
people in the amphitheater
