The Czar of Russia suggested the Hague Peace Conference and
proposed a decrease in armament for all nations. In this Conference it was
proved that Peace was beneficial to all countries, and that war destroyed
trade, etc. The Czar’s words were admirable though after the conference was
over he himself was the first to declare war (against Japan).
