Limitation of armaments in itself is economically and financially important quite apart from security.

Some pacifists have carried the sound idea of the prime importance of security too far, to the point of declaring that any consideration of disarmament is superfluous and pointless as long as eternal peace has not been attained.

The security of which we speak is to be attained by the development of international law through an international organization based on the principles of law and justice.

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.

Disarmament or limitation of armaments, which depends on the progress made on security, also contributes to the maintenance of peace.
