Naval disarmament among the na- tions of the world is regarded by Frank B. Kellogg, former Secretary of State, as a natural step to follow the gencral trea'y for the renunciation of war and | one which should be pushed forward by the naval powers. Mr. Kellogg whose name is .inked with that of Foreign Minister Briand of France in the popular title of the treaty, came to Washington at the in- vitation of President Hoover and Secre- tary Stimsoa to witness the ceremony of the final proclamation of the pact for which he wiked so strenuously while in office. “‘At the outset,” he told the Associated Press in an interview, “I want to ex- press my full appreciation of the efforts of Foreign Minster Brianc of France in the part which iie played in co-op= erating in the final consummation of the eflort toward thz preservation of world peace. Initiated by Briand. “M. Briand first initiated the peace effort in his message to the American | people through the Associated Press on | the occasion of the anniversary of America’s entrancs into the World War | a little more than two vears ago. Since | that time we have seen the pact ac- | cepted by nearly all of the nations of | | the world, and I am entirely confident | | that it will be accepted by all of the | nations.” | Asked what he considered the most | | effective way of making the treaty a | certain means of preserving peace, he | pointed out that its value had bven | demonstrated in two major world dis- | putes which have developed since it 1407 H St | was signed in Paris last August.

I con- sider it a natural implement to the anti-war treaty and a step which, if carried out, would be of tremendous moral effect upon the world. It is a moral effort of the nations in the right | direction and one which should go on.” |~ One of the desires which Mr. Kellogg held deepest in his heart was that the treaty should become effective while he i was still in office. After M. Briand | sent his message to the American people in Aoril, 1926, he immediately began | negotiations with the French foreign | minister to extend the idea of world | peace beyond that of mere declarations ! to a treaty binding upon the nations of the world. His suggestion to the for- eign minister brought an immediate response, with the result that the treaty | was signed by the representatives of 15 original signatory powers on August 27, 1928. | to Paris to sign the pact on behalf of the American Government. | Final effectiveness of the treaty was i held up, however, by the delay of ratifi- cation by Japan and, since its terms required ratification by all of the signatory powers before it could become effective, Mr. Kellogg left office before it could be proclaimed in full force. Nevertheless, even while it appeared doubtful to Washington observers that Japanese ratification would be forth- coming for a long period, he main- tained the spirit of hopefulness, which was wholly justified when the treaty was proclaimed yesterday.

Senator Watson of Indiana, majority leader, said he was in full sympathy with the President’s action; Senator King, Democrat, Utah, declared that the two announcements were “an advance of great impoiiance”; Senator Edge, Republican, New Jersey, asserted | the President had acted in accordance | with the desires of Congress, and Sen- ator Sackett, Republican, Kentucky, took the same view.

[AGAINST SCRAPPING IMORE .S, CRUISERS Nation Should Build to Reach British Parity. THURSDAY, By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 25.—Comment- ing on President Hoover's announce- ment that construction of three naval cruisers would be postponed, Repre- ntative Fred A. itten of Illino’s, | chairman of _the House naval affairs committee, 5 night suggested that the United States should go on building cruisers and that Great Britain should stop until the two na- tions reach parity. “If President mean_stoppage of the disadvantege of e disadvantage of the United States "% Pritten to the same degree that the United States suffered in . 1922, when we scrapped several hundred million dollars’ worth of warships and made Britain's predominance of the seas secure. “The United States in the past three years had made several attempts to gain cruiser equality with Great Britain, but in each instance we have failed be- | refused to agree to build for our coun- | try the type of cruiser best adapted to | British uses.

Text of Naval Statement President Declares MacDonald Indicates Good Will of Britain on Disarmament Question. Press. The complete text of President Hoover's statement on naval dissrmament was as follows: “I have read with real satisfaction the statement which the minister has made in the House of Commons. The American people are gr:!nly complimented by his proposed visit and he will find a universal welcome. “Mr. MacDonald’s statement marks a new departure in discussion of naval disarmament. The prime minister introduces the principle of parity which we have now adopted and its consummation means that Great Britain and the United States henceforth are not to compete in armament as potential opponents, but to co-operate as friends in the reduction of it. ‘The prime minister has stated clearly and unmistakably the principles on which he is active. I cannot but be responsive to the generous terms in which he has spoken of the attitude and purpose of the United States. ‘We join in his efforts in the same spirit. “Mr. MacDonald has indicated the good will and positive intention of the British government by suspcension of construction of certain portions of this year’s British naval program. 1t is the desire of the United States to show equal good will in our approach to the problem. “We have three cruisers in this year's construction program which have been undertaken in the Government navy yards, the detailed drawings for which are now in course of preparation. The actual keels would. in the ordinary course, be laid down some time this Fall. Generally speaking, the British cruiser strength considerably exceeds American strength at the E:esent time and the actual construction of these three cruisers would not likely in themselves to produce inequality in the final result. “We do not wish, however, to have any misunderstanding of our actions and therefore we shall not lay these keels until there has been an opportunity for full consideration of their effect upon the final agreement for parity which we expect to reach, although our hopes of relief from leonml'uf’tg;n lie more largely in the latter years of the program under the aw of - Long Island. e said his purpose in visiting the point was to look over that vicinity's possibilities as a docking place for large vessels.
