NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 2s.-High
northeast winds that have held the
south Atlantic coast at their mercy for
several days greatly interfered with
shipping. Seventy eight ships sought
shelter in Lynn Haven Roads for til Tee
days. Among them were thirty naval
vessels and the Panama liner Advance.
Water driven in from the sea by high
winds flooded several Norfolk streets.
At Willoughby Beach water from
Chesapeake Bay almost covered the
entire strip of land for seven blocks.
Many people living in cottages at that
Point abandoned their seashore homes
and came to Norfolk, The Diamond
Shoals lightship was blown off her sta
tion by the wind.
There was no Joy in local shipping
circles this morning when the word was
passed around that under the admins
trative provisions of the Fordney-Mc-
Cumber tariff act, which became effec-
tive yesterday, ships touching at Amer
,can ports for bunkers would be re
quired to enter and clear if they re-
mained in port more than twenty four
hours. Since majority of the vessels
which come into Hampton Roads for
coal remain here for more than one
day, the changed rule will work con-
siderable hardship here.

FALSE SECURITY
To Think There Will Be No More War,
Says President Plumley.

Colonel Charles A. Plumley, presi
dent OF Norwich university, speaking
Tuesday evening at the 34th annual
banquet Of the Boston alumni of the
| institution at the Hotel Bellevue, in
Boston, declared that "the American
people should not be lullcd into any
| false sense of security by reason OF
what has been accomplished by the
conference on limitation of arma-
ment.'
Il am not militarist," he said,
"but do not want my boys to have
to go to war unframed and unpre
pared therefor. as were so many thou
sands in the World war. 1t is crime
to strip this country of its defences,
and the citizen soldier IL the backbone
of the country | am not an alarmist,
but people ought to be walked up, and
they should not be permitted to for
get.
1.-THE international arms conference
has framed treaties and drawn agree
ments which, when finally concluded
and adopted, will be of the largest
Importance and the greatest benefit to
mankind, yet not one of the gentle
men there assembled deluded himself
for moment into believing that any
covenant to be entered into among the
nations would always prove a panacea
for or perfect preventive of war. Hav-
ing given TO the world the best that
could come out of that conference,
there is not a man among our repre-
sentatives who sat around the table
who would not tell you that, notwith-
standing the wonderful results OF the
conference, there can be neither justi-
tication nor excuse for our ever again
being found in a state Of unprepared-
ness for war
'.The distinguished statesmen were
not able to promulgate any plan which
will change human nature or bring
about the millennium, nor did they
hope, expect or undertake to do so.
The rule still holds true that in re.
public the due cultivation of proper
military discipline among the great
mass of the people and general diff !
fusion of military information are in
necessary for the preserva-
ion of the government.

has been responsible for much that
Norwich has had to contend with in
the past, and uniustly so, for Norwich
has always trained its men, not for
war, but for peace, the possibility Of
their military service being an incident
for which they should be trained and
are trained as citizens"
Continuing, he said that "the petty
policies Of Che paciiist at Washington
win get them nowhere, they will be
boomerangs. The world is sick and
tired Of war, but this country has not
forgotten and will not soon forget
what the policy Of the pacifists and
the lack of preparedness cost us in
lives and treasure. A man is not a
militarist because he believes in rea
sonable preparedness. II IL an awful
thing even TO contemplate what would
have happened If the policies of the
pacifists had prevailed. 1t is well
enough to think on these things once
in a while, lest we forget.
