In part he said:
“Our proposal is to disband inactive troops and disregard all armaments not used in police protection. This plan would increase world peace and would better world conditions.”
Jones explained how* complete disarmament would decrease the cost of the world, especially those costs of maintaining our armies and navies He gave figures and quotations to clinch his arguments.
Yoshida was the initial speaker on the visiting team. He refuted some of the arguments given by the first affirmative speaker and explained that disarmament is impossible, impractical and undesirable. Yoshida maintained throughout his constructive speech that complete disarmament does not consider the present potential armaments which are extremely important to the question.
Captain Bautzer took all three arguments brought forth by Yoshida and told why the plan as advocated by the affirmatives is possible, practical. and desirable. He continued the affirmative case concerning the advancement of peace as a result of the advocated plan.
The second negative explained the defects of the plan w'hich Captain Bautzer and Jones advocated. He further considered the negative side regarding the impossibility of the proposed system.
In the rebuttals, the speakers argued on the question of potential arguments and the question of the possibility of complete disarmament.
Humor was interspersed in all the speeches, bringing out the tropical points of sliced pineapples and hulu hulu dancers.
