This meeting expresses profound sorrow that the

unequal to the task of averting a war that will
bring misery and ruin to millions of innocent
people, already overburdened by unjust social and
industrial conditions.

This association protests against this war as an
outrage on civilisation, and pledges itself to carry
on a campaign of education in the interests of
peace, through universal arbitration.
