S. HAS NO PART IN FOREIGN INTRIGUES Speaker Makes Plea for Formation of Sound, Rational Public Judgment That open diplomacy is the best and most desirable means of insuring national integrity and international good will-that group differences with- in the nation hinder America's inter- ests in foreign affairs-that condem- nation and "ostracism" should -be un- sparingly meted out .to those who im- peril our friendly relations with o#her nations"-these were the points on which Charles Evans Hughes, Secre-. tary of State., placed special stress in his Commencement address in Hill auditorium this morning. Declaring that it was his purpose to present his observations on the conduct of our foreign relations, not to define particular policies, but con- sider method and control," the Secre- tary continued: "Recent developments abroad have marked the passing of the old diplo- macy and the introduction of more direct and flexible methods responsive to democratic sentiment. Peace-lov- ing democracies have not been willing to rest content with traditions and practices which failed to avert the greait catastrophe of the world war. Public criticism in some instances overshot the mark and becoming emotional enjoyed the luxury of a bitter and indiscriminate condemna- tion. "The most skilled diplomats of Eu- rope were charged with having be- come 'enmeshed in formulae and the jargon of 'diplomacy;' with having ceased to be conscious of pregnant realities.' More potent than the crit- ics were the exigencies due to the war which required the constant contact and direct interchanges of responsible leaders. The aftermath of problems has made necessary the frequent use of similar methods permitting con- cert, flexibility, more frequent informal intercourse, and decisions which; if. not. immediate, are relatively speedy. The international conference attests the new effort to achieve the neces- sary adaptation to new demands.. No Foreign Dealings for U. S. CHARLES EVANS HUGHES, SECRE TARY OF STATE, WHO DELIVERED THE SEVENTY-EIGHTH ANNU AL COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS HERE THIS MORNING. REAJUSTMENT IS KEY TO SUCCESS IN LIFE-BURTO6N PRESIDENT URGES SENIORS IN BACCALAUREATE TO HEED TRANSITION SAYS BALANCE, POISE GIVE POWER TO YOUTH Evolution, Not Revolution, Method of Civilization, Speaker Declares Impressive dignity and solemnity marked the Baccalaureate ceremon-s "It would be a shallow critic who would associate the United States with either the aims, the methods or the mistakes of the traditional diplo- macy of Europe. To her 'primary in- terests,' as Washington said, we had at best 'a very remote relation.' We have had no part in the intrigues to maintain balance of power in Europe and no traditions of diplomatic caste. From the outset-from the first efforts of Benjamin Franklin-American di- plomacy has deemed itself account- able to public opinion and has enjoyedl the reputation of being candid and' direct. . . . . . "The difficulty of maintaining a true! perspective and distinctively American opinion in the field of foreign affairs is greatly increased by the natural and persistent efforts of numerous groups to bend American policy to the inter- est of particular peoples to whom they are attached by ties of kinship and sentiment. The conflicts of opinion' and interest in the old world are repro- duced on our own soil.. . . . . . "Whatever the advantage of our governmental arrangements-and I should be the last to under-estimate them-I thing it shoes , be candidly admitted that they have'4he effect of limiting the opportunities for the re- sponsible discussion which aids in thr understanding of foreign policy. The conduct of foreign relations pertains ies held, yesterday morning in Hill auditorium,. before an audience of seniors, parents and friends which overflowed to the aisles and corridors of the building. The program was. opened with "Piece Heroique," an organ number rendered by Prof. Earl V. Moore, fol- lowed by the invocation by Rev. Sid- ney S. Robbins. Robert Dieterle, S. of M., sang "Adore and Be Still," with an organ accompaniment by Prof. Moore. At the close of the solo President Marion L. Burton arose to deliver the Baccalaureate address of the seventy- seventh Commencement. His opening words were an expression of appre- ciation of Commencement days, lend- ing a note of placidity and confidence to the occasion. President Burton began: "Something gives a beautiful, fas- cinating quality to commencement days. Possibly this quality is the cum- ulative effect of various causes. Per- haps these days take on a character all of their own because they mark the realization of high hopes; or be- cause they are full and justly so, of the pride of achievement; or because they furnish substantial evidence of. the claim that these hundreds of grad- uates are the responsible possessors (Continued on Page Three).

Wesbrook Enters Tennis Tourney It has been definitely announced that Walter Wesbrook will represent Michigan at the Eastern Intercolleg- iate tennis tournament to be held June g5 and 26 in Philadelphia. No one will go with him to compete in the dloubles and he will be Michigan's sole representative in the singles. Because of the fact.that there is no three year rule in the East he is eligible to com- Pete in these matches while he has been barred from play on the'Varsity all year because he finished last year his three years allowed by Conference rulings. Wesbrook has a fine chance of win- ning the title. At Chicago recently he surprised everyone and copped the Sherwood tournament by defeating Walter Hayes, national clay court champion. A year ago he was the highest ranking college player. He has been coaching the team this year and has kept in fine shape by constant practice. U. OF D. TO GRANT DEGREES TO CLASSES OF ABOUT 200 Rev.

Parade Across Campus Following the annual ceremony of the bugle-call and flag-raising at 8:15 o'clock which started the finalactivi- ties of the day, the classes formed at- their respective posts behind their class officers. It took but a short time for the seemingly disorderly mass to form into' an orderly, self- regulating parade. Slowly, solemnly, the procession wended its way across the campus to Hill auditorium, there to partake in the exercises which would complete the closing events of undergraduate life for the members of the graduating body. The seniors entered Hill auditorium' aabout 9:30 o'clock, and a few min- utes more elapsed before the great as- ,sembly hall was filled to its capacity with members of the faculty, parents, relatives and friends. The auditorium was hushed during the preliminary ex- ercises,-all was anticipation leading up to the three biggest events-the ad- ,dress of Charles Evans Hughes, Sec- retary of State, the granting of hon- orary degrees to men of prominence and merit, and the awarding of the degrees to the seniors: Hughes Gives Address Secretary Hughes, the chief Com- mencement speaker, is known through- out the world today as a result of the outstanding part lie took as a leader in the Disarmament Conference at Washington. His life ha been one of public activity, having been governor of the state of New York at one tine and for six years a member of the Su- preme Court of the United States. The ope stands facing the entrance to Hill auditorium, which had been erected in order to take cae of the great number of alumni and visitors who could not be accommodated with- in the auditorium, because of lack of seating space, were filled early, forming a review stand for the proces- sion. Radio amplifiers carried the speech of. Secretary Hughes to the stands. Of the different departments repre- sented, the Literary college hd the gratest number of seniors receiving degrees, their number totaling 659.
