City Still Burning
The remaining Jewish residents
of Safed, the Hebrew city which
was sacked in a brutal Arab raid
last Thursday, were being evacuated
by British troops today.
The city Is virtually demolished.
Fires are still smouldering, and
hardly a house still stands intact.
Little Is known of the reported
raid upon Beisan, but considerable
surprise was created when 1t be.
came known that the Arab hordss
had attacked Christian settlement.
The Greek orthodox quarter of the
village was pjllaged, and although a
definite check Of dead has not yet
been made, the casualties are re.

United States Consul General Paul
Knabenshue has reported officially
that eight Americans had been
killed and is injured, some seri.
ously, thus far.
Hope is expressed that no further
casualties will result among the
American population, as there Is
heavy concentration of British
troops at virtually every spot where
American residents are located.

SENATE NOT TO
ACT ON JUDGES
Confirmation of Hoover
Choices Held Up.

BIZ SeripDs-H Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The
confirmation of two appointees for
United States district judges will
be part of its unfinished business
when the senate adjourns tonight.
Because of the lively opposition
to the recent nominations of AL
bert L. Watson of Pennsylvania and
Richard j. Hopkins Of Kansas, no
effort will be made to confirm them
To save President Hoover of the
embarrassment of resubmitting
their nominations, the senate at
the request of Senator Norris of
Nebraska, chairman of the judi
ciary committee, unanimously agreed
to amend it's rules to eliminate the
necessity of new nominations. This
means that the two nominations,
which have been reported favorably
by the committee, will be held over
for the December session of con-
gress without prejudice.
Efforts were made last week to
confirm Watson and Hopkins but
senators would not lay aside the
tariff bill for the time required. In
the case of Watson at least, five
speeches are contemplated while
the Hopkins appointment also is
likely to provoke long discussion.

EXPERIMENTS IN
CHEMICAL USE
FOR WAR MADE
United States Continues
Work Until Treaty Is
Ratified.
BY LYLE G. WILSON
United Press Stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Chem-
ical warfare service is a thriving
unit Of the army despite the SEN
ate's ratification Of a treaty to
abolish chemical warfare and in an
annual report published today it
was revealed army chemists are at
tempting to extend their chemical
devices to protection of uniforms,
tanks and even battleshipS at sea.
In contrast with largely routine
work reported by chiefs OF older
arms of the service, the report of
Major General II. L. Gilchrist, chief
of chemical warfare, is a story of
experimentation in strange fields.
The senate's ratification of the
Washington arms conference treaty
which the state department says
was designed to abolish chemical
warfare does not hinder Gilchrist.
That is because other signatories,
notably France, refused to ratify
the instrument and 1t can not be-
come operative until ratification is
complete.
u. S. Carries on Work
SO long as other armies are free
TO experiment with chemicals for
battle purposes, the war depart
ment maintains its chemical war
fare service at the highest possible
level Of efficiency.
Laymen may not realize what is
perfectly plain to military men who
know an emergency may sometime
cause them to battle gas cloud with
gas cloud.
For instance. no one knows how
far chemical in the future may be
developed for use against tanks,
armored cars or battleships; nor is
there any certainty some agile
Drained foreign chemist may not
devise a gas cloud which would dis
integrate an attacking soldiers
clothing leaving him in the most of
a charge as nude as goldfish.
Such matters are occupying
Americas chemical warfare re-
search men now.
Army and Navy Experiment
II motors or warships can be
rendered useless by gas, the army
wants to know about it, perfect
the method and devise preventive
measures. Navy funds are used for
experimentation on naval subjects.
Similarly work is in hand on de-
sign of clothing which would be
impregnated with a substance to
protect the body and limbs of the
wearer against gas.
The field army of the future,
under recent authorization, will
be equipped with a laboratory
which. If necessary. could analyze
and devise protection against sur
prise gases looSed by an enemy.
