Description
Secretary of State Acheson today opened testimony on the 12-Nation Anti-Aggression Pact before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee with a plea for early ratification of the Pact. The Treaty cannot go into effect until it is ratified by the original seven negotiating nations. Ratification in the United States requires a two-thirds vote of the Senate. Secretary Acheson is shown as he testified today. From: Beth Gore
