Hope that Great Britain and the United States may continue, to be animated by the same "ideals of liberty, humanity and enlighten-' mnt," which drew them together in the World war, was expressed by President Harding today in a Me-memorfal day message to the British people. President Harding's, message was read in St Taule cathedral, London, in the town halt at Liverpool, and at Ful grave manor, ther ancestral borne of Washington's ancestors, where there were unveiled simultaneously today three bust of the father the American republic, The busts were presented as the gift i of the American people to the rit I sh government, t. The president's message follows On the occasion of the unveiling of the busts ef George Washington at St. Tauls, the town ball of Liv-, erpool and Sulgrave manor I am moved to express my hope that hJ these gifts from the American peo-. pie may be received as testifying Vanew their long-established frlend-ship for the British nation and may Inspire a continued reciprocation of that sentiment by the British people.

They will remind both peoples that Washington was an Englishman by birth and tradition before he became the leader In founding the new Anglo-Saxon, nation of this continent. They will recall that these nations have a commoh inheritance in language, institutions, customs and sympathies. They will attest a common devotion to those Ideals of Ubefty. humanity and enlightenment which have been the inspiration of both, Their gracious acceptance for lodgment in the British shrines of our common patriot-- ism cannot but make thlsoccaslon a reminder of the sacrifices that in recent times have drawn these, two peoples so close together. In the greatest and most unselfish effort that men ever put forth to, protect human honor and treasured institutions, they stood shoulder tt shoulder.

They learned hew great a responsibility they chared in the world; how" greatly they might dis- charge it when serving In complete accord and in alliance with-other peoples likewise devoted to human rights, liberties and welfare. If these memorials shall somewhat contribute to the perpetuation of such accord in such causes, they will hare done for humanity the precise service whose hope is the motive of the gift. $65,000 Centralia Fire Inquiry Begins; Suspect Incendiary Centralia, May Into the origin of Saturday's $85,006 fire, which -destroyed the First Baptistj church and the Stlcklln undertaking establishment, was begun Immediately by the local police department.
