EXTRACT FROM WARFARE REPT':., MADE PUBLIC
 
EFFECTIVENESS OF CHEMICAL WARFARE NOW RECOGNIZE
 ED BY WORLD ARMIES

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. g. (P Neglect of proper preparation fol the employment of or the defense against an efficient, war weapon borders on national suicide" Major General, Amos Fries, Chief of the Chemical Warfare Service, declared in his annual report to Secretary of War Davis made public today. The report declared that "a speedy and sure victory" in any war can be as- sured to the United States only by adequate use of the unique super iority the country enjoys as to chem ical resources.
 This position as to chemical re- sources of the United States" Gen. Fries said, twill give it superiority over any other nation or group of nations which will mean success in any future war, but a state of chem ical preparedness will never result if We slacken or neglect our military development and training in chemi- cal warfare. It must be recogniz-- ed that there is absolutely nothing inherent in chemical warfare to pre- vent its consideration as a logical and perfectly juustifable means of waging war"
 General Fries noted with particular interest "the recent chemical war fare developments in Russia, where that portion of the national defense has launched on a large scale, backed by great public enthusiasm" He said that despite many disadvant- ages," the morals of the American chemical warfare service was excel lent, but added:
 Nevertheless, without a drastic increase in appropriations, we will soon be. the weakest among the half dozen most powerful nations in chem ical warfare"
 Supply stocks for the service left over from. the war had been reduc- ed practically to nothing" General Fries asserted, adding that annual appropriations were not sufficient to replace this loss or ito maintain the war reserve for foreign projects"
 On the question of defensive meas ures against gas attack, General Fries said that masks for use in continental United States '''are non- existent" and that the supply in overseas garrisons was difficient in number and in proper sizes.

W0MAN'S CLUBS FAIL.
Social Motive Not Enough to Hold
Members Together.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 3.0Clubs for
women are not a success in London, at
least those merely for social inter-
course, and several have gone into
bankruptcy, while others saved them
selves by the process of amalgama-
ton.
Something more than social amen
tiles are required to keep a club to-
gether, and this is exemplified by the
fiourishing condition of the Ladies'
Carlton Club, which has an important
political atmosphere and is in close
touch with the Unionist central office.
Another, the Gardens Club, is thriving
because of its specially interesting
lectures by prominent people in the
gardening world, it's regular garden
dinners and well equipped garden
library.

December 81 1925. The campaign has
been carried into Washington. whose
residents are asked TO contribute to
the s1,400,00 yet to be raised, S3,6oo,-
900 already having been pledged.
Reasons for raising the fund, as
outlinra by representatives OF the
Hampton -Tuskegee endowment fund,
are this following needs of the two
universities:
Two mlIlOn uOIldrS LOT increase VI
endowment to provide for teacher
training of collegiate grade now re-
ouired by Southern States
One million dollars for endowment
for teachers salaries.
One million dollars for endowment
Of maintenance of buildings, repairs
and current expenses.
One million dollars for needed new
buildings and equipment.
The campaign now in progress Is
inspired by the belief that an increase
in the facilities of the two schools
will be a big step forward in the
solution Of the negro problem. Lead
ers of the movement are confident
that when the areas of interraotal
understanding created by Hampton
and Tuskegee men and women are
broadened the national negro proc
lem will have been solved
