KELLOGG PACT
BRITISH PROFESSOR’S VIEWS. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright). LONDON, January 18. The Kellogg Pact is only an international kiss, declared Professor J. H. Morgan. “It is dangerous and had. and will act on some people as a sedative and bn most as an opiate. Either it means nothing or it has any intciplantation any signatory chooses to apply. It makes no provision to punish anyone breaking ft. There was no war i„ the past two centuries Imt has been made according to the belligerents in self defence. By excluding self-defen-sive wars from the Pact, you exclude every war likely to happen. Apparently many support it on the principle if you want to make war, talk peace up to the moment of mobilisation, then act on the American principle of getting in the lirst blow. The Pact is mere words. The United States is the father of more illegitimate children in international law than any other nation. The idea of acting as a moral preceptor, hut keeping up her sleeve what iiiiiv soon he almost the largest navy in the world, makes me feel a certain amount of uneasiness.’
