Armistice Day, 1934.

Prime Minister’s Office,
Wellington, 18th October, 1934.

IT is hereby notified that advice has been received from the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs that His Majesty has approved of arrangements for the observance in Great Britain of Armistice Day, 11th November, on the same lines as last year, namely :

(1) A short service at the Cenotaph ; and
(2) Two minutes’ silence and suspension of all vehicular traffic for that period from 11 a.m.

Citizens and traffic-control authorities throughout New Zealand are earnestly requested to observe the practice adopted in this Dominion on former similar occasions of two minutes’ silence from 11 a.m., and the suspension of all vehicular traffic during that period. Where a service is held it is suggested that it should be at the local cenotaph or war memorial, as the case may be.

As Armistice Day this year falls on a Sunday, the New Zealand Government trusts that the Dominion churches will agree to arrange that on Sunday, 11th November, the morning service shall commence not later than 10.45 a.m., and that, in the course of this service, the several congregations may be invited to rise at 11 a.m. and silence be observed for two minutes.

GEO. W. FORBES, Prime Minister.
