REPORT ON
FIGHTING WITH GAS
American Observers Say That
Present Devices Do Not
Meet Requirements

The War Department is in receipt Of
reports from United States military OBJ
servers in Europe abiding TO the en-
ployment Of asphyxiating gases. The
success with which they have been
used by the Germans has led to the
assumption that the system must be
recognized as a factor against which
protection must be provided, whether
or not the facilities for discharging the
gases are added to the implements Of
warfare.
The German use of the asphy eating
process has led to the acquisition of
100000 respirators to protect the Brit
ish soldiers; nearly as many have been
ordered for the Belgian soldiers, and
the French are being similarly equip.
ped. Indeed, it is understood that the
respirators are Of French manufacture.
A sample Of one of these devices has
been received at the War Department
from the American military attache
at London. 1t is simply an ordinary
piece of gauZe with an elastic band
attached 80 that it may be held in place
over the face Of the wearer.
The experts say that these respira
tors have only limited value. Where
the gas is greatly diluted with the air
they are believed to be an efficient
protection for considerable time
but, when it is concentrated, the most
that can be expected Of them is as al
aid in the escape Of the men. 1t is
claimed that no respirator would en-
able a man to live in a cloud composed
almost entirely of chlorine gas.
The main problem is to provide some
means of dealing with these poisonous
gases and enable men to retain thcil
positions in the trenches, the deser
ton of which is of advantage to the
attacking enemy. 1t is said that the
experts of the allies now are devisinl
means by which fan blowers may b'
utilized in such a way as to INTRODUCED
air currents and break up the clOuC
of chlorine. One other proposal is Il
provide an immense number of hanC
grenades equipped with slings by which
! they may be thrown some distance
The agitation of air produced by ex
plosion of these grenades would eft
fectually break up the cloud of gas
For the present, the two practica
means of defense against the asphyxiat
ing gases are the fan blowers and tn
grenades.

ARMY UNPREPARED
TO INVADE MEXICO
Mainland officers Point Out
Shortcomings In Case of
Intervention -..

Contrary TO the common supposition
that army officers always are desirous
Of war, IL the opinions expressed by
officers on duty in this city, Indicate
the view of the army at large in the
present situation, they are very apprs-
hensive over the results OF attempted
military occupation Of Mexico, partic.
ularly II the regular troops now in
this country are solely relied upon TO
do the work, as IL is understood to be
the present intention Of the President,
says the Washington Post. e.. &,
For one thing, the available regular
troops, besides being insufficient IN
numbers, are not at present fully pre-
pared to take the field. While il is I'M
derstood that the general staff has de-
veloped certain fragmentary plans for
operations in Mexico, it is understood
also that those plans are incomplete as
to detail, and that the various move
ments and operations that necessarily
would have to be carried out have not
been coOrdinated into comprehensive
and homogeneous scheme.
, In other words, an effective aud in.
elusive plan of campaign has not been
developed down to the essential de-
tails, the country TO be occupied has
not been completely mapped and au-
thentic maps for issue to comma nding
officers are not available; in many sec
tions the roads, trails and passes are
not known, nor is the character of the
country and the dependence that could
be placed on it for sustenance; arrange
ments have not been made for trans
portation of troops and equipplng them
with the various sorts of vehicles and
pack animals that would be required,
and there are many other matters that
should have been considered and
planned in advance that have not been
given adequate attention.
For these reasons, army officers are
found who are willing to express tho
view that the invasion of Mexico would
be a precarious undertaking, not only
because of the small number of regu-
lar troops available, but also because
of the lack of preparedness of them.
