the Great War. IS authority Tor the
statement that all the great nations
are studying the same problem and
he intimates that French scientific
genius should be employed therein
instead of worrying about submar
ines and airplanes.
"ft is useless, nc said, "to got
angry about something which we
are unable to prevent. But il would
be q crime not to DO everything in
our power TO save the world from
the horrible danger of chemical
war
General Weygand quoted German,
British and American experts in
support of his thesis that the prob
lem of poison gas is the foremost
before military thinkers today. He
recalled at the Washington disar-
mament conference 1922 five M.
tons agreed that they would not
use poison gas in tho next war and
that they would "do their utmost
to get the other civilized nations Of
the world to make the same agree
ment.'' But so far Germany, Sow
let Russia nor China have not re
spohded.
Is Superior Weapon
Does this mean, he asks,
"that the Germans intend to
smother their enemies in the next
great war with poison gas!' They
have answered the question them
selves. An expert opinion given in
Berlin says: "Chemical warfare
gives the most scientific nations 4
superior weapon which will confer
on the cleverest people u chance TO
win world supremacy.
Is Germany alone in this respects
Weygand quoted the secretary OF
the International Law Association
of England as follows: The only
way to prevent chemical war is to
