SECRET DIPLOMACY IS
SEVERELY CONDEMNED

London. Aug. 29.-The Daily News
In an editorial denouncing secret
diplomacy, says;
Can Europe ever again tolerate the
appalling peril of secret diplomacy ?
Can we ever again play about on the
deck with sails and compasses, max
ing our little laws and imagining that
we are self governing, while down in
the hold of our ship of state there
is powder magazine, the very exist
ence of which we are not permitted
to know?
"Secret diplomacy belongs to the
traditions of autocratic and personal
government; 1t has no place in a
democratic world and the example OF
the United States must become the
model OF the civilized world on this
vital matter If Europe is to be free
from menace in the future"

Tears welled up in the eyes of many;

The faces of the thousands of onlook-

women, probably taking years from

Question to be Answered.
rs 1t patriotism for women willing

women who paraded today have left to
be answered.
There was no meeting at the con-
clusion of the parade and no speeches;
merely the silent parade of protest.
Tired and worn, the older women
holding up only by iron will and de-
termined belief in the cause for which
they marched, were cared for by the
younger as they broke ranks, at
Union Square. At the close of the pro-
cession Mrs. Henry Willard, chairman
of the parade committee, silver haired
but vigorous in her work for peace,
declared she was most impressed by

my heart was touched by the al
most reverential and sympathetic at
titude of the vast throngs. Some
women have grown to accept all that
husbands say as fate. That leads
them to believe that sending their hus-

in war is patriotism. But we want to
start a new patriotism, and make all
women realize that it is a crime to Of

There was no distinction in nation
