Praise for the Fire Department

The complimentary tribute to the excellence
of the Richmond fire department by H. H Fried
ley, state fire marshal, is we'll deserved and our
community joins in the sentiments expressed by
the state official. Richmonds low per capita fire
loss Of 40 cents, average for nine years. com
pared with other cities of the state that show an
both the fire chief and his men have done good
work
Systematic inspection, advocated by Fire
Chief Miller, and carried out by members of the
department, explains in measure the low aver
age. Fire Chief Miller believes in fire preven-
ton. Remove the cause of fires, and you will es-
cape conflagrations, is his theory. The sound
ness of his reasoning is reflected in the excellent
showing of the department and in the warm
praise which the fire marshal bestowed upon
him and his fire fighters.
The public has co-operated with Fire Chief
Miller. This is an element that must not be over
looked entirely. Intelligence displayed by the
citizens in carrying out his instructions and as
sisting the firen1en in removing combustible mat
ter has contributed in earning the tribute for our
city.
It is pleasure to know that the good work
of the fire and police departments of our city is
recognized elsewhere. Too often we fall into
the habit of ruthessly criticizing the men who
work for us in a public capacity, overlooking the
truth that these men rule conscientious
in the discharge of duty and willing to enforce
the law. word of compliment now and then
encourages them in the performance of duties
that not all of us would care to assume, and if
we did, perhaps with less zeal and ability than is
shown by the ncumbents now in our service.

GENERAL MARCH
SAYS POISONED

Nations No Longer to Permit
Its Use, He Declares,
nBy Universal Service

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-Poison
gas as an instrument Of war IS TO be
ou,awed. Any nation that uses IT
in the future will bring down upon
It's head the combined condemnation
Of the civilized peoples Of the world
This was the declaration Of Gen.
Peyon c March. chief of staff, be-
fore the house military affairs com
mlt,ee Continuing he said.
Poisoning Of the air is Just as
much to be abhorred and avoided as
poisoning Of water. But II any gov
ernnent Ike the former German gov
eminent, which was without morals
or humanity. should usc poison gases
in war the United States must be pre-
pared for defense.
1T is provided in the peace treaty
with Germany and IN the league Of
nations that chemical warfare must
be abolished. We hope that in future
wars there will hr no poisoning at
least OF non -combatan,S with such
gases Under the treaty Germany IS
prohibited from importing chemicals
for use IN making poison gases Tor
war purposes"
Chairman Kahn suggested that in
order TO be prepared against some
predatory nation which might start a
poison gas warfare, the United States
should have effective implements Of
defense. such as gas masks and anti
dotes. He asked General March II
it was his idea that those things
should be developed by the war de
par,ment or BY civilian chemists and
inventors The general replied:
1T is the purpose of the war de-
partmcnt to keep abreast of the world
in this matter. The United State
cannot run the risk OF being unpre'
pared for any eventualty In view
however, OF the steps to be taken BY
the great nations OF the world Il
abolish Sas warfare, the war depart
ment has thought IT wise not to rec
ommcrd the creation OF all indepen
dent chemical warfare division OF
corps, but to sugget ,ha, there be ;
chemical section under the engineers
corps which is permanent corp
OF the army and composed of experts.
While this development Of the re
cent war is to go INTO the discard
however. another OF the new engine
Of death will be developed TO the high
est state OF efficiency 1t is the tank
which General March said will be
come more valuable as their size ant
armament are increased. The com
mi,tee was told tina, the limit in tn
size OF tanks and the size OF the gun
they carried soon will be reached
The chief of staff revealed that III

pleted. No information as 10 the d,
