We Pacifists Have Not Ceased

Thus, If Armaments Were Curtailed Without A Secure Peace And All Countries Disarmed Proportionately, Military Security Would Have Been In No Way Affected.

Every Success In Limiting Armaments Is A Sign That The Will To Achieve Mutual Understanding Exists, And Every Such Success Thus Supports The Fight For International Law And Order.

Among Pacifists It Was Above All The English Who Always Insisted On The Importance Of Disarmament. They Said That The Man In The Street Would Not Understand The Kind Of Pacifism That Neglected To Demand Immediate Restriction Of Armaments.

The Following Year, After I Had Prepared My Draft, The Conference Of The Interparliamentary Union At The Hague Decided To Set Up A Special Commission To Study The Problem Seriously.

The Popular, And One May Say Naive, Idea Is That Peace Can Be Secured By Disarmament And That Disarmament Must Therefore Precede The Attainment Of Absolute Security And Lasting Peace.
