This Is Our World, And

The Disarmament Conference Has Become The Focal Point Of A Great Struggle Between Anarchy And World Order... Between Those Who Think In Terms Of Inevitable Armed Conflict And Those Who Seek To Build A Universal And Durable Peace.

Whatever We Do Or Fail To Do Will Influence The Course Of History.

Four Years Of World War, At A Cost In Human Suffering Which Our Minds Are Mercifully Too Limited To Imagine, Led To The Very Clear Realization That International Anarchy Must Be Abandoned If Civilization Was To Survive.

The Forces That Are Driving Mankind Toward Unity And Peace Are Deep-seated And Powerful. They Are Material And Natural, As Well As Moral And Intellectual.

The More The History Of The World War And What Led Up To It Is Studied, The More Clearly Those Tragic Years Become Revealed As A Vast Collapse Of Civilization.
