Possibility Of Limiting
 Poison Gas Use Depends
 On Science Writer AUers
Danger to Which Unrestricted Development of Science Will Expose Humanity Vividly Real ized by Military Experts

By MAJ. GEN. SIR F. MAURICE (Written for the International News Service and the London Daily NewsD
 LONDON, Dec ?. Major Lete- burc's study of chemical warfare, in his book. The Riddle of the Rhine v has presented to us in an authorita- tive form the dangers 10 which the un, restricted development of science di- rectcd to destruction will expose hu- manjty.
 Since the subject of the use of poison gas in warfare was mooted at this years meeting of the British As sociation there has been much discus sion in the press. and find that a number of scientists have declared that the use of poison gas as in their opinion not inhuman. or at least not ,morc inhuman than the employment of explosive shell or other forms of de- struction.
 I desire to combat this view because,

as have stated previously, believe that the possibility of limiting the use of poison in war depends largely upon the scientists My opinion has now been endorsed by the Assembly of the League of Nations. which has adopted the report of it's Third Commission on the reduction of armaments. That re. port contains the following passage:
 "lt has been stated that inventions have been made or perfected since the war whereby wholesale destruction of the civil population would be possible by the dropping of poison bombs and like from the air. nor is there any reason to suppose that the limits of invention in these fiendish devices have been reached And if, as seems possible to the committee to be argu. able, the employment of these wn1- poms will he rendered mprIcticabl" if there were no secrecy about them, the possibility of obtaining complete

COSMETICS RUIN PEARLS.
 SAYS LONDON JENELER

LONDON, Dee. 2-"Tho woman who uses cosmetics and wears pearls is un- knowingly allowing her gems To die a lingering death The better the pearl the more easily cosmetics kill it."
 In these words a well-known London jeweler complained of the women who are continuing bringing pearls to be repaired, stating that the color and mellow tints are fading
 We cannot exactly tell these wom- en that if they cease to smear their necks with cosmetics the pearls will retain their color, and even improve with time he said "A pearl thriyes only when worn near the actual skin. It deteriorates so badly when worn over a painted neck that after half a dozen seasons it loses d considerable part of it's money value"

publicity for scientific research in this domain is certain my worth exploring
 APPEAL TO SCIENCE
 Accordingly the committee recom- mends that the Temporary Mixed Com mission should be asked to consider whether an appeal should not be ad' dressed to all scientific men in the world urging them to publish to the world the results of their discoveries in such matters. so that the knowl. edge of them, having become public property, their use as weapons of war by any single state may be rendered improbable"
 Clearly, if any number of scientists do not consider the use of poison gas inhuman this proposal of the League Of Nations will not be of much value. But there is no doubt that the use of gas by the Germans in the second bat. tie of Ypres was regarded as a barbar- ity. So much was this the case that many distinguished soldiers were doubtful whether We ought to use gas in reply. ,,..a
 By The Hague Declaration of 1889, which was signed by both Great Britain and Germany, the signatories agree to abstain from the use of pro jeetiIes, the sole object of which is the diffusion of asphyXiating or delctcrious gases In The Hague convention of 1907 both England and Germany agreed not to use poison or poisoned weapons. Germany got round these agreements because the gases used in the second battle of Ypres were. strictly speaking, not poison, and they were discharged from cylinders, not
