In Memoriam the League of Nations London, June 6.
The anniversary of the formation of the League of Nations will be celebrated on the 25th instant by processions of the various branches in London to Hyde Park, with decorated cars carrying representatives of different nations in national dress. The original idea of a pilgrimage to London from the provinces has had to be abandoned, owing to the industrial crisis, but local areas will hold their own demonstrations.
In addition to the processions tentioned above, there will be a procession of ex-service men and women, trade unionists, and members of brotherhoods,—sisterhoods and religious bodies.
The Archbishop of Canterbury and Lord Robert Cecil will receive the distinguished guests, including the Ambassadors and Ministers the 48 countries which ar. members of the League, together with members of the British Cabinet and members of both Houses of Parliament, Colonial Ministers' and Agents-General_and dignitaries of the churches. The reception will be held in a tent at the entrance to the park,.and there will be 12 platforms, including an international one, from which: addresses will be given in 12 different languages.—Reuter.
