The pact is regardgd as a big incentive to the reduction’ of armaments and it viewed as-a problem demanding urgent attentioh THhe delegates also confronted ith the problem of supplementing and strengthening the Kellogg treaty. Model pacts for the regulation of conflicts by pacific means will be submitted to the assembly in the hope that nations will be induced to accept them more widely. Many delegates remarked that the treaty signed at Paris constituted a magnificent step in advance, but that jovernments must further commit them- selves against war by binding pacts of non-aggression and agreements to settle all disputes by arbitration, It was feit that without the aid of the United States nothing could be ac were complished and the Kellogg pact was ' \Question Is Placed Before BOMBING PLANES OFF ON FIRST HOP Aviators in Transcontinental Flight Leave Langley Field f . = L € © ABOR DAY, 1928 SIONARY CONFIRMS DEATH OF COL.

Sellogg pact was one of the foremost nates in the salutory address delivered by Foreign Minister Pmcog of Finland, president of the League Council He hailed the treaty as a lofty mani- festation of the will to bring about in- ternational understanding. He also halled it as an act in keeping with the League covenant, arising out of the same desire for universality and for united action to maintain peace. Hails Progress of Peace. “Is there anywhere a_more splendid proof of the progress of the peace idea?" Asked M. Procope of the crowded as- sembly hall. Applause from the dele- gates and the onlookers in the galleries | was the answer. He voiced the greetings to the United States as chiefly responsible for prepar- ing the treaty and also to Foreign Min- ister Briand of France. The pact he in- terpreted as & triumph for the cause of | peacg and “for our faith in the futute of the League of Nations, a precious help in our work and a new encouragement to_success. The council president recalled that the same desire to outlaw war was adopted on the proposal of the Polish delegation at the 1927 assembly in a resolution condemning wars of aggr sion.

Procope referred to the reply which the council of the league sent to Costa Rica in response to that country's request for an interpretation of the Monroe doctrine.
