Summary
Stating that he does not believe that "the building up of national armaments has ever helped preserve peace, but has often helped to permit war", although he allows that a "really international force ... might help to bring peace"; saying that, while he would not "encourage the fighting spirit in children", he would not prevent them from playing at soldiers, as "If they are accustomed to treat it as childish play they may grow out of it."
