My dear Mrs. Bird: I am deeply grieved to learn of the death of your brother, the universally beloved Father Francis P. Duffy.
This reduction should be carried out not only by broad general cuts in armaments but by increasing the comparative power of defense through decreases in the power of the attack.
I propose that the arms of the world should be reduced by nearly one-third.
