Kellogg Calls Anti War Pact Moral Victory
Plymouth, Aug 23 The pact for the outlawry of war to be signed at Paris next Monday is a step forward to civilization, a great moral move, Secretary Kellogg said on arrival. He and Canada’s Mackenzie King welcomed aboard the Isle de France and expressed gratification at heading to Paris for the cause. Kellogg stressed the pact is collective, not the work of one nation, born from people's desire to prevent future wars. King echoed a shared North American peace aim, noting prosperity stems from avoiding war and maintaining neighborly relations. Kellogg avoided discussing Franco British naval understandings and limited speeches in Europe, while King planned to meet Baldwin and Amery in England.
