The President pointed out that every President and Secretary of State who had been alive since the inception of the World Court had urged American adherence to it.

Referring to the London Naval Limitation Conference, the Presi-

dent declared that the success of this meeting represented a step toward the prevention of war,

In citing difficulties in applying the Kellogg Pact to settlement of the recent Sino-Russian contro- veray, President Hoover said that the need had been demonstrated for "some method of mobilization of public against violation of the Kellogg Pact."

The President declared that the

in 1027 bad renewed more dangerous armament competition, while the success of the London Conference had reduced British. Japanese and American standards of naval armia-. ments about 25 per cent below those of 1927.

"But most important of all," he went on, it has rendered us able finally to turn the tide of the con- stantly increasing nayal armaments and to end the position of suspici- ous ill will generated by constant rivalry in naval construction."
