We pacifists have not ceased to point to the grave danger of armaments and to insist on their curtailment.

In life, particularly in public life, psychology is more powerful than logic.

The relationship of the two problems is rather the reverse. To a great extent disarmament is dependent on guarantees of peace. Security comes first and disarmament second.

Time and time again we have experienced efforts directed toward this popular and simple concept of securing peace by means of disarmament.

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

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.

It will be sufficient to point to the enormous burdens which armaments place on the economic, social, and intellectual resources of a nation, as well as on its budget and taxes.
