Security
Resulting
From
Operations
of
the
Kellogg
Pact
WASHINGTON,
July
24.
With
United
States
expenditures,
for
purely
military
purposes,
exceeding
those
of
any
other
nation
in
the
world,
President
Hoover
announced
yesterday
a
general
program
for
curtailing
these
outlays
to
the
lowest
point
that
will
produce
adequate
national
defence.
Through
a
new
international
agreement
on
nava1
arms,
the
President
hopes
to
reduce
the
cost
of
maintaining
tho
United
States
sea
forces
and
as
a
means
of
slashing
the
army
costs
he
plans
to
establish
a
commission
of
the
leading
army
officers
within
the
general
staff
to
determine
what
savings
can
be
made
.
The
American
people
should
understand
that
the
current
expenditure
on
strictly
military
activities
of
the
army
and
navy
constitutes
the
largest
military
budget
of
any
nation
in
the
world
and
at
a
time
where
there
is
less
real
danger
of
extensive
disturbance
to
peace
than
at
any
time
in
more
than
ha
a
century,
Mr.
Hoover
declared.
"Our
whole
situation
is
modified
by
the
Kellogg
Pact,'

added.
