Teat of Letter, The president's letter, 23, follows: My dear Mr. Libhy “Some days ago 1 received a lettor from yourself, as executive secretary of the national council for prevention of r, inferming me that that or- ganization ‘is preparing for a cam- paign in behalf of world co-operation for peace to begin July on the tenth anniversary of the outbreak of the great war. It is intended to he a great outpouring of the genuine peace sentiment of America. We beifeve it to be in harmony with your own pur- poses as expressed on many occasions We respectfully ask your ment of the demonstration mhey Nept prosented form ¢ i national tion for an organi wign | ident ML eme had | with 1he 1 e an nearly war, so as this s letter abolishegd 1holish im dated July direction, the wrote to “In reply, by secretary to the you ving: ks president asks me 10 ae- knowledge receipt of your letfer of June 30th, with the assurance of his most hearty sympathy for every prac- tical proposal to minimize the danger of war. As you know, he has repeat- edly expressed himself in this tenor, and you may be sure of his continued and most genuine friendliness for ev- warthy and effective effort along these [fnes.’ “*As {s well known to all persons who have done me the honor to familiarze themselves with my public expression on this subject, T have been unqualifiedly sympathetic with the aim and purposse to make war, so nearly as might be, an impossibility in this world. Doubtless this iz a counsel of perfection not to be realized with- out much earnest effort; to that effor when guided along feasible lines, have repeatedly pledged myself sistance, “It is now brought to my attention that your organization is profoundly eoncerned because of the assumption that the plans for a national defense test on September 12th constitute a militaristic gesture. This assumption seems to be based chiefly on a con- fusion of terms. In some unofficial and entirely unauthorized way, the defense test has been ‘mobjlization day.’ The govermment did not do this. It would be properto call it ‘inspection day.’ but it is not a mobilization and the government is not responsible «for any such designa- tion. As a result some well meaning people have misconstrued its char- acter and purposes, assuming that a nation-wide mobilization of forces, and of the civilian and industrial resoury available for national defense is to be carried out on that day. This, of course, is far from the truth. “The constitution and the template the maintenance of a defense establishment, which in time of peace always has been and is now, in pro- portion to our national power and in- . terests, one of the smallest in the world.

To state this is but to state what everybody Lknows, It is desirable that [both the public officials who would |be responsible for the national de- fense, and the people who would have [to make the sacrifices to maintain it, Ishould know something of our plans for it.
