Cites Hamburg Incident.
Had Hamburg suffered the collapse
of theater resulting in the death OF

gene killed, there would have been but
very little publicity regarding the ac-
cident," Mr.. Bulls said.
BY International agreement. Ger
many Is forbidden to manufacture gas
for military use Only three German
firms are authorized to make phosgene
for use in the dye trade. The firm
which owned the Ieaky phosgene tank
is not one of these three firms.
ut is not implied that the phosgene
gas was made secretly for military pur-
poses. The very fact that the city
did not know of the exist
ence of this phosgene tank proves the
difficulty of preventing any nation
from storing gas for military purposes
II It wanted to do so. even though this
were forbidden by international agree
ment
