WASHINGTON, Dec. i4,-That Amer

front next spring with undreamed-of
quantities OF poison gases, that Edge

would have captured the fortresses OF
Metz; that the United States alone
would have had ten tons Of mustard

this fact. when the armistice was sign
ed this service was in a position 10
perform It's full function at least as ef-
fectlvely as that Of any other bureau
OF the War Department. This func-
ton was to manufacture gas, load II
into shells, devise additional appliances
for delivering it and to provide defen-

troops against similar devices on the
part of the enemy.
Colonel w. II. Walker, gas production
chief, took on the lid with relation TO
the gases that were being made at

BRITISH CRUEL RI! p
TO PRISONERS,
HUNS CHARGE
Lying Campaign Seeks to JUS
tify Barbarity to the
Englishmen

I { BY Newspaper Enterprise Ass'n.)
Amsterdam, Holland.--To afford an
excuse for their brutal treatment of
allied prisoners and to arouse the
German. people to further barbarity
toward captives, the Germans have
started a lying propaganda purporting
to show that HUN prisoners In Eng,
land are being mistreated.
Repatriated German prisoners are
compelled to affiX their names to
narrowing stories Of their hardships
in English prison camps.s This under.
handed campaign is the more bastard.
ly in view of the fact that English
civilians are protesting that German
prisoners are treated better ehtn they
are.
The following mendacious story in
the Vossische Zeitung is a sample Of
the HUN lies:
"'rhe conditions in the German in
ternment camps in England are grow
ing sadder day by day. The rations
are continually diminishing in guam
tity. No fresh meat is ever given to
the Germans.

u. S. CHEMISTS
MAY WIN WAR
WITH NEW GAS
Seeking to Find Substance That
Will Destroy Whole
Armies
BY j. II. DUCkWORTH
\. f. 4. Stafi CORRESPONDENT.

Washington, d. c., July 26-Ameri-
can chemists. working on the poison
gas problem may bring the war to q
victorious close for the allies in their
laboratories.
They are working hard, together
with British chemists, to find color
less, odorless and invisible gas, which
sweeping over sleeping army, would
destroy it.
The Germans are also working to
find such gas. Which ever side
finds it first will win the war
The gas she'll is not necessarily
a she'll 1t may contain a liquid or
even solid, and it opens up the whole
sphere of organic chemistry to be
drawn upon for materials.
In every German drive this year
there has been gas strategy. Full
dress rehearsals in gas maneuvers to
meet every possible situation were
held by the Germans before an attack.
In the March drive captured maps
show the Germans had worked out a
coming system over allied territory.
Some zones were drenched with gas
and others left untouched. The Ger
man attacking troops were supplied
with maps to indicate the safety zones
through which they might pass with
out harm.
Some zones were Subjected to ephe-
neral gases which evaporated before
the arrival of the oncoming Germans.
Other, areas were bombarded with
several hundred thousand shells, the
gas from which fingered for hours.
On one seyen-mile sector the Germans
discharged $4,000 twelve-pouhd shells
in one day.
The front" is not the solid line it
looks to be on the maps, 1t is a ser
les of strongly-held posts, often hills.
The Germans use gas shells against
these 'strongholds, attempt to drive
the defenders from them and to pass
through the safety, zones between.
The element of surprise isoimport-
ant in gas warfare. The meterOrO-
logical conditions are much better at
night then during the day.
Sometimes when it is believed that a
gas attack is over the men take off
their masks only to be trapped with
another dose.
The Germans tried the effect of sur
prise by silencing the noise made by
the emission of gas from the cylin-
ders, but this was found to lessen the
concentration. 1t was more effective
to drown the Kissing of the escaping
gas with the rat-tatat of machine
guns.
