U. $. HAD PLANS
 FOR GAS ATTACK

Fayetteville, Ark, Feb. 15.-"When fighting ceased the United States had on hand more than 2500 tons of pois- onous gases; plan had been worked out to send aeroplanes carrying a ton of mustard gas over the enemy lines." was the statement recently made by Lieut.. A. s. Humphries of the department of chemistry, Univer- sity of Arkansas. who has just been discharged from the Chemical War fare Service. "The gas containers were to be released over fortifica- tions such as Metz and by means ot time fuses they were to be exploded when several hundred feet above the fortress. A ton of dispersed mustard gas would account for every living thing within space of an acre.
 ''The plans had been built and test ed; the containers were made; the mustard gas was ready. France and England had given their consent which they at first withheld, fearing reprisols. Such operations were to have been started this spring. It is probably just as we'll that Germany gave up in November"

THE CITY PARK.

There has been some discussion among the business men of Pine Bluff as to whether the people of Pine Bluff really want a city part or not Some years ago several pub- lic-spirited citizens offered to the city tracts of land that were ideal park sites. At that time the city au- thorities, with the exception of one or two far-sighted members, did not think enough of the project to record the deeds and file the property for the city. And the matter was theI. dropped.
 Recently, however, a number of To- cal business men have renewed the effort to obtain a park for the city and Roy Kemp introduced a resolu- tion at the Rotary Club suggesting that that body get behind the move. ment. A committee was appointed and is endeavoring to locate site that will be acceptable to the city.
 Pine Bluff is probably the only city of it's size in the entire country that hasn't city park. Other cities have regarded parks as the first move to. ward city Identification and have found them a paying proposition. An attractive city attracts outside atten- tion, makes an impression on business men and interest, seeking locations for industries, and appeals to class of home-seekers who make the best citizens. A park is business asset and not municipal luxury. /
 The largest manufacturing com panies and corporations of the coun- try have secured and equipped parks for their employees at enormous cost, simply because they realize that "all work and no play makes Jack dull boy" And if Jack has not a place to play and find wholesome recreation he either stagnates or gets into mis- chief. And stagnation and mischief tend to tear down business and in dustry
 The argument has been preached that the city can not support the up. keep of a park. "Where there's g will there's way" Other cities have found out that municipal play grounds decrease the work of proba ton officers and lessen the cost o1 juvenile courts. They make for bet ter citizens and therefore decrease the cost of police courts and jails.
 There are Pine Bluff boys and girl. in the city jail, detention home, re formatory and in Little Rock insti tutions. Somebody in this city is pay ing for their maintainance, either di recently or indirectly. They were put there for minor offenses and petty misdemeanors.
 Why not put this money in a park and give them a chance?
