DISARMAMENT MUST TIIIC argument of Brother Brisbane against disarmament is the old familiar one- used by 'the HID per cent militarist since the world beyan. Keducp armaments? Sure. But let the other fellow do it first. ,And in the meantime build the strongest navy and the most powerful air fleet our tremendous resources permit. Then and then only let us talk about a warlcss world and universal peace. It is nstonishini; that any sane person could put forth such an arnutuent. If it is riht for one country it is rif.'ht for an other, and as Ion); as it is advanced by any world power, all the others must in self defense follow suit. No. The only way to stop this insane race in armaments is a mutual agreement to reduce them. And the first step to ward reachiii' such an Agreement is for some nation to assume the leadership and take the first step. 1 That is what President Hoover has done. To commend his action on one hand, and urf;e larger navies, armies and air fleets on the other, is to add to the folly of militurim, the vice (if hypocrisy. , , ...A. jiitcllci js .ajnaij who thinlts. seven of the hits full sal't beciiuse his teani. mates dislike travel. , Mow you eiin't, tell.
