British Plan Yank Tribute Memorial Chapel Planned at St Pauls
London officials announced near completion of a memorial chapel at St Pauls for American dead in World War II. About 280000 dollars has been raised, largely from pennies donated by British children. The apse will house a roll of honor with 28000 names, to be written into 474 pages after Eisenhower approves the photostat. The full roll will begin after the photostat is returned from the U.S. and the chapel awaits worshippers with the roll on display.
