Pica To President Hoover
e * Women's Support In Aims For
Maval Reduction Through
London Conference
Tt National Council of Jewish
‘ n . speaking in behalf of its
’’ members throughout the Unit
ies, has voiced its plea for a
: ‘° n in naval armaments
r h the London Conference, in the
n £ statement addressed to
' Hoover and Secretary Stim-
the Chairman of its Depart-
* Peace, Mrs. Oscar C. Marx,
1 -t.. Louis:
“The National Council of Jewish
Women believes that the readiness to
effect a reduction in naval strength,
as enunciated by President Hoover
in his Armistice Day address, has the
hearty support of the American
people and, therefore, protests against
any deviation from that attitude. We
urge that every effort be made to
bring about a radical reduction of
armaments, especially since the five
powers meeting in London are signa
tories of the Pact of Paris, renounc
ing war as an instrument of national
policy. The National Council of Jew
ish Women pledges its support to the
President of the United States nnd
to our country’s delegation in London,
for the consummation of a radical
naval reduction.”
At its recent Twelfth Triennial
Convention in Los Angeles, the Na
tional Council of Jewish Women
adopted the following resolution, re
newing its support of a policy of dis
armament :
“WHEREAS, The National Coun
cil of Jewish Women has on its pro
gram of work, the study and support
of proportionate and gradual dis
armament, and
“WHEREAS, The Naval Confer
ence, In London, is considering the
reduction of naval armaments and
the possible prevention of rivalry in
naval building.
“BE IT RESOLVED, That the Na
tional Council of Jewish Women re
affirms its support of its program of
work for disarmament.”
