Arthur Henderson Collective Quotations

It has become impossible to give up the enterprise of disarmament without abandoning the whole great adventure of building up a collective peace system.

But to cut off relations with an aggressor may often invite retaliation by armed action, and this would, in its turn, make necessary some form of collective self-defence by the loyal members of the League.

Thus, there can be no real disarmament except on the basis of the collective peace system of the League of Nations.
