Remembrance Day, 1948

Prime Minister’s Office,
Wellington, 15th October, 1948.

CITIZENS and traffic-control authorities throughout New Zealand are requested to observe Remembrance Day on Sunday, 7th November, 1948.

The observance of this day should be similar to that of Remembrance Day last year, and two minutes’ silence be observed from 11 a.m. and all vehicular traffic be suspended during that period.

The New Zealand Government trusts that churches will agree to arrange as far as practicable for a morning service on this day to commence at 10.45 a.m., and that two minutes’ silence be observed at 11 o’clock.

Where a citizens’ memorial service is held, it is suggested that it should be at the local cenotaph or war memorial, as the case may be.

W. NASH, Acting Prime Minister.
