Herbert Hoover: “The program of the treaty does represent a decrease in destroyer and submarine strength.”

I am glad to see the adoption by both the Senate and the House of the principle of generous relief to unemployment.

I propose the adoption of the presentation already made at the Geneva Conference for the abolition of all tanks, all chemical warfare, and all large mobile guns.

I propose that the arms of the world should be reduced by nearly one-third.

The armaments of the world have grown up in general mutual relation to each other.
