y | ER QE \ | 2 bh i A AMR Bt BE rt -- Use Of Poison LoAants kind." Cas In Warfare (From an Editorial in The New York Times) In the Peloponnesian War, more than 2,600 Years ago, We. combat | tried burning sulphur, when' Aligayind ht, in an effort to disorganize the cnemy. In 1885 Thomas Cochrane, Karl of Dundon- ald, proposcil a similar experiment to reduco the Malakoff work #t the siege of Sevastopol. But it was not until April 22, 1915, that gas warfare as the worlu has come to know it was introduced. . On that day, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, British and Canadian artillery observers outside Yyres, Belgium, saw a bank of greenish vapor" rolling toward them from rmaj lines. It was chlorine, ed from mordé than 6,000 metaleylindors placed in trenches sand carried on a gentle breeze, It caught the Allied troops by sur- prise and unprotected. Hundreds of men died or were disabled and the whole position was abandoned, . Ld * From then on the development of gas warfare was rapid. Mask lung-irritant gas devised and the British used the "eylinder" tech- nique against the Germans In Sep- tember, 1915. The French perfects ed the gas projectile and surprised the Germans with it early in 1916. In 1917 the Gormans brought out mustard gas, which affacks tho eyes and lungs and burns the skin. It was called the most effective gas devised and both sides vsod it until the end of the war. Estim- ates place the number of chemical troops employed by all belligerents at only 23.7656 during World War 1. They took a toll of 91,198 Kkill- ed, 1,205,655 injured. More than a fourth of all American casual- ties were due to gas. L] -. * defenses against es were quickly The Axis has been warned, hy both' Primo Minister Churchill and President Roosevelt, against the use of gas warfare. Any perpre- tators of such a crimo were prom- ised "full and swift rotaliation in Twice Chungking has' sald - the Japanese used gas and on several occasions the Russians have sald they 'had ovidence that Germany was planning to resort to this wea- pon. - . . & It Germany takes the .slep she will have. no such advantage of - surprise as sho had in World War 1. Although all belligerents have vowed they would not use it first, all have kept thoroughly up to date on both defensive and offen- sive gas warfare. Most experts be- lieve there are no new "socret" gases, Instead, the number has probably been reduced from the 1918 total of more than thirty types to eight or ten highly im- proyed formulae. Among them is Lowisite ---- chlorvinyldichlorarsine ~--doveloped in 1918 but ne . enough to finance a peace. Prob- ed. Highly toxic, quick-ac ritant to the skin but not contam- inating an area for long, it is us- able as an airplane spray or in projectiles. The Arviny calls it M-1, and regards it as an important item in the Allies' chemical ars- enal, Task Of Financing : A War And A Peace - His Grace the Anglican Arch- bishop of Toronto, Primate of Canada, is reported as saying to the Synod that if there is enough money to finance a war there is ably, says the "Printed Word," the most frequent question coming - from people who contrast war activity with a well-remembered industrial slump, is why we cant not find work for people in time of peace when we can find it in time of war, : Strange as it may seem, we, too' have thought about this. We think we have known the answer all along; our thinking has been an effort to find an illustration which makes the difference plain even to an archbishop. Isn't tho difference that a good citizen will spend all his wealth and risk his life to save his home from de- truction? , Many a man who cannot raise $76.99 to have his home painted by the lowest bidder will count it cheap if he spends a great deal more to keep it from being bombed. fr Sea Forts Guard European Coast? The German radio said recently the west coast of Europe was guarded against invasion by sea forts built offshore of *"thous- ands of tons of steel apd con- crete" ahd manned night and day. The forts were said to be armed. with batteries of heavy' and anti-aircraft guns. . "The forts are approached by hundreds «f narrow steps lead: ing up to the plaftorm from" the water level," the broadeast, ree corded 'by The Associated Press, paid, "Exits are carefully secure .ed with heavy barbed wire en. tanglements and extensive mine -}---would not \ Under Wartime Regulations Pa ---- FARMERS wa Tires on farm tractors, combines, and trucks are eligible for replacement provided they cannot be repaired or retreaded.

PI. Keas- bey in the Christian Science Moni- tor. This mine, designed for use in shallow walters, was made' of non-magnetic materials and om- ployed a detonating device so con- trived that the mine was exploded when (Iie Steel hull of a ship pass. ed over the mine, deflecting a delicato magnetic -needle. Various suggestions were made for combating this magnetic type of mine. The British considered towing, large sheets of. metal through the mined waters means of non-magnetic wooden- hulled = ships. The wooden ships affect the the metal plate would activate the magnetic detonating mechanism exploding the mine. Another suggestion involved tow- ing a cable equipped' with mag- netic devices and sound makors (the latter to explode any mines which happened to be of the acous- tical type). Tho electromagnets on the cable would set up an clec- trical barrage that would detonate the magnetic mines. Still a third means of detonat- ing magnetic mines harmlessly was by means of aerial mine- sweepers. The British used Well ington bombers for this purpose. The bombers were equipped with huge rings which had a diameter almost equal to the length of the bomber. Installed beneath the by minos but plane, the ring could he charged with electricity, transforming it in- to a powerful magnet. N + * * X The electricity required to ener- gize the magnetic ring was gen- erated by means of auxiliary mo- tors, it being impractical to divert sufficient power from the plane's regular motors to run the genera- tors. "od Thus equipped and 'with two sets of gasoline engines going full blast, the pilot would take his fly- ing minesweeper on what often proved a most exciting mission, Flying close to the water's sur- face, the magnetic field of the ring would deflect- the needle in "ho magnetic mine, causing it to ex: plode. And sinco the mines would let go practically beneath the bomber, the ride was likely to be bumpy, to say the least, Later, ships were equipped with degaussing girdles which neutral ized their magnetic fields, thus protecting them fromr-- magnetic mines, " By Rouervia Lee 1.
