LAD #32

The Kellogg-Brand Pact of 1928 was a seperate peace treaty made by the U.S. with European world powers after WWI had ended. It stated that any power who wanted to declare war, would be denied. It was seperated into different articles. The first article stated that the High Contracting parties should consult one another when they wanted to declare war against another country. Article two said that if any problem should ever occur between these nations, then they should be dealt with "pacificily." The last article stated that the treaty should be put into effect immediately following ratification. Basically, the Pact oulawed declaring war, which proved to be unsuccessful.
