ASKS NEW SYSTEM
TO STORE POWDER
Ordnance Chief Proposes
Army Keep Supply Under
Water to Lengthen Life.

An underwater storage project for
all reserve stocks of smokeless pow
der is urged by Maj. Gen. c.. c. Will
lfams, chief of Army ordnance. in his
annual report to Secretary Weeks,
made public yesterday at the War De-
partment. The plan was recommend
ed by a committee of ordnance ex-
perts, who studied the problem. par
ticularly the experience of the French
government.
1T has been found that powder de-
teriorates much more rapidly in dry
storage than in wet" Gen. Williams
said. In fact. during the calendar
year 1923. at the Charleston ordnance
reserve depot, two magazines and their
contents were destroyed presumably
due to spontaneous combustion result
ing from deterioration of the smoke
less powder in storage.
underwater storage of stock of
smokeless powder will, it is believed
serve to prolong the life of the pow
der, and postpone the day on which it
will have to be replaced by new manu-
facture.''
Outlines Progress.
Gen. Williams also outlined progress
made during the past five years on re-
designing practically all ordnance ma
teral. Lack of funds had progressive
til it has been contracted ito cover
reasonably well only infantry, pack
and divisional material. the smallest
caliber of anti-craft material and one
type of tank"
The department now finds itSe'f un-
able to carry out even the contracted
program during the coming fiscal year
to an effective degree" he added
New designs of material are ready
for production of pilots. but funds are
not available forl their completion
With relation to the small arms
ammunition manufacture during the
past fiscal year. the report says that
3.42S,000 rounds of 80 caliber ma
tional match cartridges turned out

tion yet produced"

Negotiations, therefore, have been
carried on between the German gov

ing the conditions on which the lat

Chronic coughs and persistent

You can stop them now with
Creomulsion, an emulsified creo-
sote that Is pleasant to take. Creo-
mulsion is a new medical discov-
cry with twofold action; it soothes
and heals the inflamed membranes
and kills the germ.
OF all known drugs, creosote is
recognized by the medical frater-
nifty as the greatest healing agency
for the treatment of chronic
coughs and colds and other forms
of throat and lung troubles. Creo-
nulsion contains. in addition to
creosote. other healing elements
which soothe and heal the inf1amed
membranes and stop the irritation
and inflammation. while the creo-
sote goes on to the stomach, is
absorbed into the blood, attacks
the seat of the trouble and de-
stroys the germs that lead to con-
sumption.
