suItory debate. during which yir-
tusIly no opposition developed.
The vote Of the Senate gave the
unqualified assent of this country
TO the first successful effort to limit
armament in the history OF the
world. The treaty will become
operative when ratification is ex-
tended by the other signstories.
This will be accomplished with Iit-
tie dificuIty, because rarely, II ever.
do foreign governments repudiate
treaties negotiated by their repre-
sentatives.
