 Direct Appeal
ATTACKS METHODS OF
 LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Public Debate Is Urged Upon Proposal-Aims
 of U. s. Cited

GENEVA, March 20-Russia has appealed to the United States to join in forcing immediate action on the Soviet proposal for total disarmament within four years.
 The appeal was made before the Preparatory Committee of the Disarmament Conference by Maxim Litvinoff, head of the Russian delegation.
 Litvinoff, after attacking the methods being followed by the League of Nations and demanding an immediate public debate, al. luded to proposals of Secretary of State Kellogg, of the United States. for outlawry of war. then added:
 The Soviet delegation feels au- thorized to count upon the sup port of the delegation of the gov ernment which is intervening at the present moment with a pro- posal to prohibit all wars. The sincerity of that proposition is not to be emphasized more per suasively than by adherence to the Soviet project for disarma- ment, not only with view of moral prohibition but to destruc- tion of the possibility of making war. As armed forces exist for no other purpose than to make war, and as they will be perfect ly useless, were it prohibited. it appears consistent and logical if the government in question sup ported our proposals"
