The Stage is Set . ..» The World is Watching. This headline on The Sun newspaper today gets the tone of front pages in British news- papers on the day of Sir Win- ston Churchill's state funeral. The Sur gives more than half its front page to a photograph of early spectators silhouetted against flood-lit St. Paul's Cath- edral, scene of today's funeral service. And So, Farewell, says the Daily Mail's banner line. Colleagues in War and Poli- tics Pay Homage, is The Guar- dian's headline. The Daily Mirror gives its front page over to a picture of a defiant, cigar - smoking Churchill, cane in hand, stand- ing above a sandbagged gun emplacement. 'END OF DAY' The Daily Sketch uses a por- trait of Churchill by Karsh, the famous Ottawa photographer, for its front page, without cap- tion or headline. On its back page it uses'a picture of an elderly Churchill, cigar in mouth, cane in hand, head bowed as he sat on a garden wall. Its headline says: The End of the Day. Beneath the picture the paper uses as a caption an excerpt from one of Churchill's speeches in the House of Commons, Sept. 8, 1942: "Nothing can fill the awful gap, nothing can assuage or comfort the loneliness and de- privation which fall upon wife and children when the prop and snatched away. Only faith in a life after death in a brighter world where dear ones will meet again--only that and the measured tramp of time can give consolation." The Times on an inside page uses an excerpt from Alfred Lord Tennyson's ode on the death of Wellington: The tenseness grew as: the coffin was carried in the church, one of the most revered in Christendom, and was broken only when the choir broke out with its first hymn: "I am the resurrection and meme, Dr. Walter Matthews, aged dean of 'St. Paul's read the prayer: "Brethren, we are assembled here, as representing the peo- ple of this land and of the Brit- ish Commonwealth, to join in prayer on the occasion of the burial of this great man who has rendered memorable serv- ice to his country and to the cause of freedom." SING FAVORITE HYMN The congregation, perhaps mindful that Sir Winston's mother was an American, sang the Battle Hymn of the Repub- lic--one of Sir Winston's favor- ite hymns. Before that, the distinguished cosmopolitan assembly, after the coffin was placed upon the bier, sang a hymn including the centre of their home is suddenly ' AFTER THE STATE fu- neral service, Sir Winston Churchill's coffin is carried down the steps of St. Paul's Cathedral watched by Lady Churchill Randolph Church- ill and other members of the Churchill family. --(AP Wirephoto) WATER EVERYWHERE The small Soviet republic of Azerbaijan has so many canals that linked together they would atretch completely around the earth at the equator. words: ; Lead out the pageant: Sad and slow, | As fits an universal woe, | Let the long long procession g0, | And let the sorrowing crowd | about it grow, | And let the mournful martial | music blow; | The last great Englishman is | Jow. AWESOME LAST TRIBUTE (Continued from Page 1) "Let him come hither." The faces of even the most hardened of old soldiers soft- ened at the end of the historic service when, with the Queen and Prince Philip standing by Sir Winston's coffin, the heart- piercing strains of the Last Post were sounded by a bugier. The service and the earlier procession were filled with memories of centuries past but more particularly of the Second World War when Churchill brought hour. This was in the thoughts of all as the procession came \along Fleet Street, which slopes | toward Ludgate Circus, an area |devasta'ed by wartime bomb- ers, with St. Paul's standing proudly on a rise dead ahead. Churchisl had seen St. Paul's engulfed ir. flame, dust and fly- ing rubble as the high explo- sives burst in the darkest days of the war. The vast church was compared in those days to a majestic ship crashing |through seas and shelifire. | Today, the vast dome stood etched and peaceful against a Britain to its finest '| gun-metal grey sky. MARCH IN SLOW STEP As the bells of: St. Paul's tolled at 11:30 a.m., the coffin was carried down the steps into the grey, cloudy day. As they had on the way from Westminste: Hall to the cathe- dral, the procession once again marched toward the Thames in the slow step for the dead. Big Ben tolled the last time for the greatest Englishman by signalling the start of his ma- jestic funeral procession from Westminster at 9:45 a.m. on a cold. clear day. Then the famed clock, indeli- bly associated with Britain's valor in wartime days, -was- si- lenced until midnight in honor of Churchill, who had lain in state for three days in West- minster Hall, a few hundred yards away. Thousands lined the route of the funeral procession, many of them having spent the night on the cold curbings and side- walks, ; Women clamored for news- papers--not to read but to pro- |tect their legs against the cold. Near the statue of the Duke of Wellington in the heart of London, one group fried eggs and bacon on a portable stove. NEED... FUEL OIL ? PERRY | Day or Night Why Pay More...

The people crowded into the man's funeral, taking their places along the processional route from Westminster Hall to St. Paul's Cathedral. Three hours before the serv- ice started, crowds were six \deep on Ludgate Hill, leading to the cathedral. People were stacked up 20 and 30 deep at Parliament. At 3:30 a.m., the temperature was 40 de; but the damp, biting wind made it seem much colder. Police moved through the crowd, waking those sleeping on sidewalks, One young man was Says PM At LONDON (CP)--Prime Min- ister Pearson, viewing the flow- ing crowds at ancient West- minster Hail, says the mourn- ers at Sir Winston Churchill's bier showed a moody, quiet, deep reverence, so unlike "the violent, intense, shattering grief" displayed at President Kennedy's funeral in Washing- ton more than a year ago.

Some played cards or checkers. The mood' of the crowd was more of commemoration than of gloom. MANY YOUNG PEOPLE Most of those who waited all night were young people, girls outnumbering men two to one. Why were they there? Mrs. Annie Birkett, 66, said: "During the war his speeches gave me hope. That's why." Freddie Brampton, waiting all night with his wife and three young children, said: "I teach history. This is a bit of it I want to see." Stanley Fox, 33, from Inver- cargill, New Zealand, said: "Back in 1852 my grandfather saw Wellington's funeral from Westminster porters Friday that when he at- tended the Kennedy funeral he could sense an emotional out- burst, almost of anger, that the youthful president had been cut down even before he had a chance to do his work.

Diefenbaker, an ardent stu- dent of history, said the great hall was associated with many famous events in Britain's past but "I don't think there has ever been anything in West- minster Hall to approach the greatness of these hours."

At 8:45 a.m., three buses) brought boys from Churchill's old school, Harrow, to Westmin- ster Hall. Along the procession route in Fleet Street, a group of RAF war veterans held high a ban- ner which said: OTTAWA (CP) -- There are numerous men capable of great- ness, but Sir Winston Churchill was "one of those few who, through lucky circumstances, have all the qualities required to cultivate in themselves the pollen of the gods, the bloom of genius," the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey said this morning. Mr. Massey, Governor - Gen- eral of Canada from 1952 to 1958, was delivering the eulogy at the national ceremony of mourning for the former British prime minister. The ceremony in the Hall of Fame in the Parliament Build- ings begen at 11 a.m. EST, following a 90-gun salute fired by the 30th Field Artillery Regi- ment of Ottawa. The salute, largest ever fired for an individual by the Ottawa regiment, started an hour ear- lier and continued every 30 sec- onds for the next 45 minutes. The four 105 mm. howitzers fired in time with the tolling of the great bell of the carillon in the Peace Tower. Governor-General Vanier, who was to leave later in the day for a visit to Regina, members of the diplomatic corps and gov- ernment officials attended the service, along with representa- tives of the Royal Canadian Legion, Red Cross, War Cor- respondents Association, and other organizations. Sir Winston 'looked to history as an artist and a cratfsman," Mr. Massey said.

At 9 a.m., Big Ben, the great clock looming over the Houses of Parliament, struck the hour for the last time today. In tribute to Sir Winston, it will be silenced until midnight.

"Not only as a maker of events, and as an architect of thought, but as a chronicler of history, he has left in literature such a tale of the English-speak- ing peoples as will warm the cockles of the old and quicken the hearts of younger men."

The heralds, dividing at the bier, formed up against the en- trance to the choir. Sir Win- ston's knightly honors were placed at the head of the coffin. Gently, the flag-wrapped cof- fin was laid upon its velvet bed, and the family mourners, pass- ing in front of the Queen, took their places on the south side of the dome arena, facing the bier. A stirring, typically Churchillian hymn rang out, with its ap lines--"No lion can him fright; he'll with a giant We cart Then the dean of St. 84-year-old Dr. Walter thews, read the brief, proud} eulogy. Addressing the huge} congregation as "people of this) land and of the British Com- monwealth,"" he gave thanks for the man "raised up in our days of desperate need to be a leader and inspirer of the nation, for his dauntless resolution and un-| tiring vigilance and for his ex- ample of courage and endur- ance." SING U.S. HYMN After a small silence, and prayers, the great dome echoed to the American Battle Hymn of the Republic--last heard here at Britain's memorial service to John F. Kennedy. The canon of St. Paul's. read the lesson from the Corinthians --'Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting?" -- and another heroic hymn, a Churchill favorite, filled the vast marble cavern: Fight the Good Fight. The brief service ended in a triumphant climax with the na- tional anthem. Then from trum- peters high up in the "whisper- ing gallery" came the lament of Paul's, Mat- jat 6 a.m. |persons in 67 hours had paid SAD-FACED QUEEN (Continued from Page 1) the Last Post.

As Sir Winston was borne out of St. Paul's--once the symbol, with his own jutting profile, of blitzed London's defiance--the kings, nobles, presidents and prime ministers and all the hun- dreds of humbler folk in the great church sang: O God, Our Help in Ages Past Group by group, ones departed. The candles flickered on around the lonely bier. Suddenly, the crowded church, with all its 300 years of history and heroes, seemed empty and bereaved.
