MOST DEADLY POISON

interior department exposition here,
is a tiny vial II contains specimen
of the deadlest poison ever known
T.cwisite" the product of an Ameri-
can scientist.
Germany escaped this poison by
signing the armistice before all the
resources OF the United States were
turned upon her
Ten airplancs carrying "Lewisite'
would have wiped out, it is said every
vestige OF life--animal and vegetable
in Berlin. A single days output
would snuff out the millions OF lives
on Manhattan Island. A drop poured
in the palm Of the hand would pene-
trate to the blood. reach the heart
and kill the victim in agony.
what was coming to Germany may
be imagined by the fact that when
the armistice was signed "Lewisite'
was being manufactured at the rate
OF ten tons a day. Three thousand
tons OF this most terrible instrument
ever conceived for killing would
have been ready for business on the
American front in France on March

"I.ewisite" is another of the big
secrets of the war, just leakink out.
II was developed in the bureau OF
mines by Professor w. Lee Lewis OF
Northwestern University. Evanston,
ILL.,. who took a commission as a cap
tain in the army.
The poison was manufactured in a
specially built plant near Cleveland.
called the "MOuse Trap" because
every workman who entered the
IstOckade went under the agreement
not to leave the eleven acre space
until the war was won. The object
of this, OF course. was to protect the
secret.
Work on the plant was started
eighteen day after the bureau Of
mines had completed its experiments.
