LAD #32 The Kellogg-Briand Pact

The Kellogg-Briand pact was a peace treaty primarely between France, and the United States. However it was also signed by England, Japan, Germany, Japan, and Italy.The primay purpose was to prevent war from haoppening, but also to promise that no war would break out between the nations. It was drafted by secratary of state Frank B. Kellogg, and Aristide Briand, and after writting this both men earned the Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts. And Unlike the treaty of Versilles this treaty did in fact pass in U.S. congress. This was formulated along the side, not through the leage of nations. However it was smart, and effective at the time, it would not hold up in the years to come.
