U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 261. Policy as to settlement of disputes and disarmament
It is declared to be the policy of the United States to adjust
and settle its international disputes through mediation or
arbitration, to the end that war may be honorably avoided. It looks
with apprehension and disfavor upon a general increase of armament
throughout the world, but it realizes that no single nation can
disarm, and that without a common agreement upon the subject every
considerable power must maintain a relative standing in military
strength.
