CLAIM GAS
is HUMANE
WAR WEAPON
lRy The Associated Press.

London. Feb. 2.-There would be no
more reason to forbid the use OF gas
than to prohibit the employment of ri
iies in the next war, says Major-Gc
al Sir Louis Jackson of the Royal Eli
gineers, formerly in charge of offensive
gas production. There were, he declar-
ed, gases which killed painlessly and
1t was easy TO conceive cases in which
it would be more humane to use gas
than explosive shells. 1t might be pos
sible to come to some arrangement
whereby no gas should be used that
caused unnecessary suffering.
In recent address before some OF
the leading lights in the military world
he stated the world was on the eve
of the most extensive notifications in
the art of war known to history, and
the changes made in the recent war
were only the beginning 1t was neces-
sary TO use new arms with the know
ledge that the nation which best did so
would have a great advantage in the
next war.

WHATEVER NAY
EMERGE FROM RUSS
WILL Be MENACE
(By The Associated Press. )


Sunderland, Eng, Feb. Winston
war, declared in an address he deliver
ed here that while no one can tell what
will emerge from Russia, '':t will be
something very menacing to civilization
and especially dangerous to the British
Empire"
"BOlshevist fanatics are determined
to destroy civilization democratic par
Iiaments and the liberties of free peo-
PIES" declared the minister.
Europe and Asia are in Il desperate
condition. The allies may abandon Rus
sia, but Russia will not abandon them.
The ghost of the bear will cross the
SHOWS and menace them.
New forces are springing up in Asia
Minor, and if Russian bOlshevism and
Turkish MOhammedanism should join
hands. the situation for Great Britain
would be grave. KOlchak and Deni-
kline have protected British interests
in the past, but the armies of KDlchak
are almost gone, the armies of Deni-
kline are in jeopardy and if they were
to disappear. serious danger would i'm
mediately arise.
1T is possible that there may be a
combination between kaiser militarism
and German bOlshevism to, destroy the
German republic. We must see that
that does not happen. We are contin-
ually being told that we should not
tradei with Germany again, but how
are we to get our indemnities unless
we trade with her? France and Ameri-
ca are taking all steps to trade with
Germany, and we should not be called
on to stand aside"
