PEACE, NOT WAR, IS
 WEST POINTS AIM
Assist. Sec. of War Gives
 Graduation Address

West Point, June 12 Pl-The American army is operated on a policy of preparation against war, not preparation for war" Dwight F. Davis, assistant-s of war, declared today in the graduation ad- dress to West Points class of 1925.
 Tn my close and intimate con- tact with army officers" MT. Davis said, T have never heard one make a remark which could be construed as militaristic. The men who have to fight do not want wars. They are strongly for peace to the very limit that peace can be maintained with honor.
 There are those who apparently believe that because a peace loving citizen becomes an army officer, he is transformed overnight into a mili- tarist, earnestly desiring war. There is no danger Of militarism in this country, certainly not among mili- tary men"
 Warning members of the class that they continue their studies in the school of experience. The most important course in that curriculum. he said, would be the study of men.
 The regular officer must study and know the regular soldiers" be said. he must study and understand the me Ners of the National Guard as a n. Gmportant link in our chain Of l. Nenal defense, and he must observe and understand mem- bers of the officers reserve corps. Each group required different treatment"
 Mir. Davis said few people outside the army appreciated the scope and value Of the war departments peace time activities. He listed among such works survey and development of in. land waterways, cooperation ir stamping out disease and study O. radio and aviation as applied tt commerce.

Stewart Permit Stands,
 RemOnStrants Absent

No objectors appeared last night at the hearing of the building com- mission on the revocation of the per init of Mir. and Mrs. F. H. Stewart to erect two-family house on Cor bin avenue and the hearing was ad- Journed. Attorney Donald Gaffney acted for the Stewards and argued that since 1t was a hearing on re- vocation, 1t was up to the objectors to appear against the permit. He also stated that a contract with the builder had been entered into and a cancellation would lay the Stew arts open to suit, for which they would be able to recoup themselves by coming back on the city. Con- struction work has been begun and the failure of remonstrants to ap- pear last night ends the matter.

SCOPES LAWYERS z PREPARING CASE
DarroV, Colby and Malone Are
 Hard at Work

New York, June 12 P-while Sohn T. Scopes. high school teacher, was returning today from New York to Dayton, Tenn, his counsel were brushing up on the intricacles of the rise of man and there was much dis cussion of the part radicals are playing in arrangements for the de- fense Of Scopes on charge of vio- lating the state law against teach ing evolution.
 Clarence Darrow, Bainbridge Col by and Dudley Field Malone, asso- ciate defense counsel, visited the American Museum of Natural His tory yesterday. They saw in the hall of the age of man specimens show ing the evolution of man and the evolution of the horse. The con- ferred with Professor Henry Fair field Osborn. noted authority on evo- lution and president Of the museum, who promised aid in lining up sci entifc witnesses.
 When Scopes visited the museum several days ago Professor Osborn warned him not to let radicals run the case. Later Scopes as guest of honor at 8 dinner of 300 so-called liberals and radicals, said: T have met here in New York the most lovable bunch of people ever knew those who have taken up my case"
 In this connection the New York Evening Post says:
 Greenwich village is on its way 10 Rhea county. There shortly will descend upon Dayton. Tenn, the greatest aggregation of assorted tranks, including agnostics, atheists, communists, syndicaIists and new dawners, ever known in a single procession.
 "The Scopes case, teachers. re- kearch workers. biologists and other men of science are being smothered In the rush of haired and short haired women, fnminists neurotics, free-thinkers and free-lovers who are determined to shine In reflected glory. The vital issues on the trial in Tennessee are being lost in the stampede of professional martyrs and a. swarm of practicing egotists.'
 Some members of the Civil libcr- Hes union, which is aiding the de- fense. disagree with suggestions that the case be lost in spectacular fashion at the first trial, in order to arouse interest in evolution and to let the United States supreme court pass on the constitutionality of the law. These dissenters feel that it would be more beneficial to rout the so-called powers of darkness right et the start.
 Arthur E. Hunt Of New York, CO., author of the book Biology and Human Welfare" from which Scopes taught, has been amazed to learn the part his book was playing in the case. Mr. Hunt said evolu- ton was dealt with only superficial ly because tho text was intended for elementary students.
 "Scientists don't speak of the gen eraI doctrine of evolution as a the ory any more" he added. It's fact"
