GAS ATTACK PLANNED

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Secre-
tary Baker informed Chairman Dent
of the house military committee that
the war department had decided that
all discharged soldiers may perma-
nently retain the uniform and over
coats they wear when mustered out.
Dent prepared bill embodying the
necessary authority. Previously the
department had planned to have the
clothing returned to the government
four months after a soldiers dis
charge.
Ready For Gas Attack.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-When
hostilities ceased, the American army
was being prepared and equipped to
hurl ten tons of mustard gas into the
German forces for every ton the
Germans could deliver, Major Gen
eral William L. Sfbert, director of
the chemical warfare service, said
at a dinner given in his honor On
the day the armistice was signed, he
said. plans for the manufacture of
the standard gases were in opera
tion with a manufacturing capacity
sreater than that of England and
France combined This capacity
would have been trebled in the case
Fof certain gases, before the beginning
of the new year.
General Sibert revealed the fact
that his department had perfected a
new type of gas mask for the de-
fense Of the American army which
was far superior in every respect to
any mask used by either the enemy
or the allied forces. He added that
4OO, 900 of these masks had been pro
duced when the war ended.
"The soldier must do large part
OF his fighting in a gas mask Gen
eral Sibert said. "and fighting gas
mask was developed without mouth
piece or nose clip and one in which
the eye pieces would not dim. This
tppe Of mask was just coming into
production and about 400 600 of them
had been made when hostilities
ceased."
Speaking of the work done to equip
the army with gas shells and new
and more terrible poisonous vapors,
Colonel w. II. Walker, in charge of
production, said that the great plant
constructed at Edgewood, Md, was
"the most deadly institution since
time began"
The work in progress there has
been carefully guarded heretofore,
but Colonel Walker told something
Of the enormous quantities of poison
Gus gases that were being turned out
and shipped abroad when the fight
| ing ended. While he gave no fig
ures, he Indicated that casualties
among the enlisted men who handled
these deadly products at the plant
would be hard to match on the
battle front"
In concluding his address, Genera
Sibert pointed out that the United
States had always been backward ir
