Stimson urges abolition of submarines at naval conference
Secretary L. S. Stimson told a plenary session at St James Palace that abolishing submarines is a practical measure. He argued submarines are costly and risky, while Britain and Italy supported ending submarine warfare and France and Japan urged a five power agreement. The five powers agreed that if abolition fails, strict limits must apply, with Britain and the United States opposing French claims of cheap protection. France supported humane rules, while Britain, India, and others urged abolition and universal adherence.
