Show TRIBUTE TO NATION'S HEROES. Flags of Five Allied Countries Wave Over Graves of Soldiers. Washington. Over the graves of hundreds of heroes at Arlington on Memorial day waved the silken flags of five great nations. The ensigns of France, Great Britain, Belgium and Italy, encircling a great United States flag, fluttered in the cool wind as if in salute to this nation's dead. President and Mrs. Wilson were present pres-ent at the ceremonies, in addition to many other figures prominent in the life of the capital. Diplomats representing repre-senting the allied nations attended the Memorial exercises. |
