Many of the estimated 10,000 who paced themselves to a slow drum beat under rain-darkened skies had started the "March for Peace" in Copenhagen June 22 and carried their message across five countries, a 745-mile route. AS BYSTANDERS applauded and cheered the several miles-long procession, the marchers carried roses and banners calling for nuclear disar- mament and sang out "Vive La Paix! "-"Long Live Peace!" The mayor of Hiroshima, Japan war- ned nuclear powers yesterday that mankind faces self-destruction and begged them to renounce war in a ceremony marking the 36th anniver- sary of the first atomic bomb attack. "Let all souls here rest in peace, for we shall not repeat the evil" of nuclear holocaust, Hiroshima mayor Takeshi Araki said before a crowd of 40,000 at the reconstructed city's peace park. PRIME MINISTER Zenko Suzuki used the memorial service to express Japan's. determination not to develop- nuclear weapons despite its capability to do so. Vatican Radio, in a special anniver- sary program, decried the proliferation of nuclear weapons. "Since that long-ago August of 1945, already forgotten by many, the situation has become more critical," Vatican Radio said. "Thanks to a vast technology aimed at destroying humanity, the nuclear weapons of today make the ones used 36 years ago seem like harmless toys." THE BROADCAST, without naming specific countries, said, "The number of countries with these tools of death has increased. The countries have amassed in their arsenals the power to destroy the entire globe, both sea and land, several times over." Peace groups, gathered in cities across the United States yesterday to mark the anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with sit ins, sing-ins, pray-ins and "die- ins" denouncing nuclear arms. A quiet crowd of 100 held a vigil early yesterday on the steps of the capitol building in Lansing, Mich., praying and singing in the moments the bombs fell on the two Japanese cities within days of each other 36 years ago Duily Photo by KIM HILL A tin grin This smiling metal tank, brother of the famed Kook-Aid pitcher, resides near the Amtrak station and welcomes weary train travelers to Ann Arbor.
