Defense Only. says BaIfour.
For the British. Mr.. Balfour re-
peated and emphasized his argu-
ments OF the two previous days and
defended Great Britain from any
suggestion of favoring aggression.
Great Britain is strong enough TO
defend herself and she wants notn-
ing more than to defend herself"
he declared. The British spokesman
then reviewed present international
relations from his viewpoint, insist
ing that there was no warrant to
believe that the smaller nations of
the world would not favor entering
an agreement to abolish submarines
for all time.
Senator Sarraut in replying to this
declared:
The creation of will 20 peace
in the world can be based only on
confidence and a spirit of justice.
This is the deep conviction that
must be impaired to all nations:
they should be persuaded of this
fact not by having il forced on ther>
but by letting it gently penetrate
into their minds"
Chairman Hughes then announced
the decision that there could be no
present adjustment of the subma-
rine as an agency of warfare. Then
there was placed formally on the
records the following statement OF
tho British position:
THE British Empire delegation
desires formally to place on record
its opinion that the use OF subma-
rine1. whilst OF small value for de-
fensive purposes. leads inevitably
to acts which are inconsistent with
the laws of war and the dictates of
humanity. and the delegation de-
stres that united action should be
taken by all nations to forbid their
maintenance. construction. or en-
ployment."
Mr.. Hughes then suggested his
