"The ultimate goal is a secure, free, and peace-
ful world in which there shall be general disarmament
under effective international control and agreed
procedures for the settlement of disputes in accord-
ance with the principles of the U. N. Charter."

disarmament negotiations, the Government of the
Soviet Union has come to the conclusion that the
best means of solving the disarmament problem,
which is the chief international problem of our time,
is complete and general disarmament by all States."
