Veterans Day speaker Mrs. Marion McCarthy urged viewing the world from a different planet to see two meanings of the holiday. She called for gratitude to servicemen and an end to war as a means of settling disputes, suggesting the name change to United Nations Day could reflect deeper aims of Nov. 11. She noted the UN offers a path to peaceful living under divine guidance and emphasized commemorating hopes through the UN and honoring those who served in "horrid" conflicts.
