Address at Tufts CT w 2ose
HAS SECRET KNOWLEDGE
That Warns u. S. to Beware of
Other Powers-Replies to
Girl Graduate

Medford, Mass, June 21-The
present administration is desirious of
disarming as far as ii is safe to go,
but it is not the time to make a move
for everlasting peace, Secretary of
War John W. Weeks said at Tufts
College commencement yesterday.
But said the secretary, we must
ask that we be the judges OF just
what this degree is For we have in.
formation which we cannot divulge,
obtained in a reliable and complete,
manner which makes us the only com
petent judges
when we see nations preparing
for war, making greater preparations
in times Of peace than during the
war, We must sit up and take notice.
England is at war. France Is at war
and many foreign nations are in con
flict. and it is not the time for us to
make a move for everlasting peace.
When the time comes for that move
we will make IT, We have reduced
our lighting forces as far as possible
and by the end Of another year our
army will be reduced to 10000
men"
Replying to an address by Alice d.
Bamber, a graduate Of Jackson col
lege, the womens college at Tufts,
who voiced the hope that women
would bring the world to peace, Sec
retary Weeks said
IF the women can do anything
permanently to prevent war thank
God for it 1t is not the purpose Of
my department to make war. No one
wants to fight But it is impossible
TO become calm in a moment after
some great struggle.
