ARMAMENT REDUCTION NECESSARY. England's great Labor Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald recently pointed out in a speech in the Commons that notwithstanding all that has been done looking toward peace there has been no marked reductions in the armaments of Eourpean countries. The expenditure of the principal European Pow- ers on armaments is not, it is true, as great as it was in 1914, but it is distinctly higher than it was five or six years ago. Since 1924 there has been an increase of nearly $50,000,000 in the amount spent on the French navy, while in the same period Italy has incerased her naval expenditure by $35,000,000. In the last six years the cost of France's army has risen by over $100,000,000, and Italy's by more than $75,000,000. The statesmen of all the European countries never tire of expressing their devotion to the League and to the Permanent Court, but their warlike preparations suggest that in their hearts they still feel with Tom Paine that cannon are the barristers of princes and that the sword, not of justice but of war, will decide their strife. They cap each other’s military programs as faithfully as they copy one another’s pacific sentiments. Already a new competition in armaments is growing up, and it is this danger which gives particular import- ance to the forthcoming Disarmament Conference. Its success is vital, because failure to check this competition in arms would lead many to believe that all the work done at Geneva is vain, for if nations prepare for war they are likely to get war. Premier MacDonald declared that in disarmament is the only assurance of_ world peace, but he said Great Britain has gone as far in that direction possible as an example. He declared that she would insist that the other European countries would have to reduce, and suggested that the reduction must be not less than twenty-five per cent. The Manchester Guardian goes further than Mac- Donald. It thinks that England must take the lead —England. and the United States. The Guardian continues: But it is not enough that we should be willing to disarm equally with other nations; it is important that we should take the lead in proposing a bold measure of disarma- ment. The success of the Washington Con- ference—perhaps the one satisfactory dis- armament conference—was due to the bold- ness of America’s offer of naval limita- tion and the boldness of Mr. Balfour's ac- ceptance. It may be that the fate of the Geneva Conference will turn on a similar imaginative stroke of policy. Speaking at Vienna last week, Lord Cecil said that as far as the Conference is concerned he did not think we should be satisfied with less than a 25 per cent. reduction in the cost of world armaments. That is a very reason- able suggestion, but it is one that is not likely to be put forward at the Conference with any hope of success unless by Bri- tain or America.
