Canada's National War Memorial Completed - The national war memorial which was completed here this week- all that now remains before its unveiling next summer by King George VI when he visits Canada is to landscape the grounds. The monument, on which Sydney, Walter and Percival March have worked since 1925 when Vernon March, their late and youngest brother, won the contest for the design, will cost $300,000.
