The formula now about TO be adopt
cd has the virtue of simplicity, II does
not attempt reservations. Nor does 1t
set up interpretations or exceptions.
The articles of the treaty itself are
clear and are a notice to the entire
world that peaceful means of settling
disputes, not war. are to be adhered
to. They are three in number, as fol-
ows:
Article /.
The high contracting parties SOL
EMMY declare In the names of their
respective peoples that they condemn
recourse to war for the solution Of in
ternational controversies and renounce
ii as an instrument Of national policy
in their relations with one another.
Article 2.
The high contracting parties agree
that the settlement or solution of all
disputes or conflicts. Of whatever nature
or Of whatever origin they may be,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1928-08-12

which may arise among them, shall
never be sought except by pacific means.
Article 3.
The present treaty shall be ratified
by the high contracting parties named
in the preamble in accordance with
their respective constitutional require
ments and shall take effect as between
them as soon as all their several in
struments of ratification shall have
been deposited at Paris,
This treaty shall. when 1t has come
into effect as prescribed in the preced-
irg paragraph, remain open as long as
MAJ be necessary for adherence by all
the other powers of the world
There is more of the third article,
but the remainder has to do with de-
tails Of exchange of ratification
