Armaments Are Necessary - Or Are Maintained

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.

Limitation Of Armaments In Itself Is Economically And Financially Important Quite Apart From Security.

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.

Even A Total And Universal Disarmament Does Not Guarantee The Maintenance Of Peace.

So Long As Peace Is Not Attained By Law (so Argue The Advocates Of Armaments) The Military Protection Of A Country Must Not Be Undermined, And Until Such Is The Case Disarmament Is Impossible.
