Here are two truths about the Kellogg-Briand Pact.
1. It wanted to outlaw war, so that nothing like The Great War would ever happen again.
2. It failed to have any real impact in keeping nations from pursuing war, and we now call "The Great War" World War I, because it was followed by World War II.
French Minister of Foreign Affairs Aristide Briand and US Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg were key proponents of the plan, which was signed by various dignitaries at the White House in 1928. The pact stated that the signing nations were "persuaded that the time has come when a frank renunciation of war as an instrument of national policy should be made," and so the signers of the treaty declared their opposition to war. By their example they hoped to encourage other nations of the world to join them in the same commitment.
The pact had little effect.

What is the question for this? I may be able to solve.
The number of Japan’s agriculture workers has fallen some 60 percent over the past quarter of a century to below 2 million in 2016, the lowest on record since the government began keeping records, according to a recent survey.
The data show the government’s effort to increase the number of young farmers has yet to bear fruit while aged agriculture workers continue to leave the profession.
The decline in farmers also comes at a time of heightened concern in the industry over the Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade pact, which is expected increase competition, and the government’s plan to abolish its policy of limiting rice production and to phase out related subsidies by 2018.
The survey compiled by Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries showed the number of agriculture workers fell to 1.92 million as of Feb. 1, down 8.3 percent from a year earlier. Japan had more than 7 million farmers in the mid-1970s, a figure that fell to 4.82 million in 1990 and to below 3 million in 2008.
The number of farmers dropped in all age brackets, except for those aged 65 to 69, which increased 6.2 percent with retirees entering the field.
Farmers aged 70 or older account for about a half of Japan’s total agriculture workers, yet the number aged 70 to 74 tumbled 12.5 percent to 280,700, while those 75 or older fell 8.8 percent to 604,800.
