gases. This action had created feel
ing of security regarding such a pos
sibility.
Germany had subscribed to the
agreement, and when her armies disre-
garded this pledge and became the
first TO use gas shells. the impression
was that they had now thrown every
consideration Of humanity to the
winds.
This action by the enemy forced the
allies to adopt this weapon themselves
as a matter of seIf-protection. From
that time on the employment Of gas
became common to all combatants.
The use Of gas in warfare presented
an entirely new problem to us, and
the organization of a service to handle
it demanded immediate attention. The
first plan Of the War department pro-
vided that the engineers should devise
and handle the mechanical features
and the medical department the chem
zeal, but this soon proved to be imprac-
teal and it became evident that, as we
had maintained at the beginning,
separate service would be necessary.
Meanwhile application was made for a
complete chemical laboratory to be
shipped to France for use mainly In
investigation as supplementary to sim
liar work in the states.
Gas Service Established.
Considerable information concerning
gases and the organization of gas
troops had been gathered by my staff,
and on August Is Lieut.. Col. Amos A.
Fries was designated as chief of the
gas service. He made some further
investigation of the subject in the Brit
ish and French armies, and as a re-
suit an order issued September 8
established a department known at
that time as the gas service.
Experiments were at once begun to
discover new gases and devise i'm
provements in gas masks. To save
tonnage and avoid the dangers of ex-
plosion in transit, it was decided.

ices, to request the shipment from the
States of the basic elements and man.
ufacture the chemical products in
France. After thorough tests of diff
ferent types of gas masks we adopted
the box respirator used by the British.
and preliminary purchase of 100000
was made to meet immediate demands
for training.
With the development of trench
weapons and special tactical methods
of defense, never had the offensive
been more costly in human life than
in this war. The ingenuity of the allies
was put TO the test to devise new en-
gines of war that would make the at
tack possible without excessive losses.
While the tank, which was simply an
armored caterpillar traction motor car,
was favored by many officers as an aid
to advancing infantry, this opinion was
by no means unanimous. Our investi-

gave US much concern. Italy was even
worse off. due to the greater distance
from the source of supply.
The outcome of our efforts, with the
very effective assistance of Admiral
Mayo, was that some Golfers, one of
which was already at Brest, were or.
dered into service for immediate use
and these were supplemented later BY
vessels from the shipping board. An
organized cross-channel service was
completed under the control of our
quartermaster department and later
transferred TO the transportation de,
partment. Although the coal question
became more or less critical at vari.
Gus times, in the main we were fairly
well supplied.

vicinity of the Grand Banks off New
foundland.
The coast guard was created by act
of congress in 1915 which brought
about a merger of the revenue cutter
service, and the former life-saving
service. The revenue cutter service,
to which the coast guard traces back,
was established in 1870 during the Sec
ond session of the First congress upon
the recommendation of Alexander
Hamilton, the first secretary of the
treasury. The Continental navy had
been disbanded at the close of the
Revolution and there was no organized
armed force to protect the coasts of
the new republic and to enforce the
customs laws. By November, 1871,
ten ships were ready for duty, and for
a period Of seven years these ships,
later, were the only armed force of the
United States on the seas.
In every war in which the United
States participated the revenue cut
ter service, ancestor of the coast
guard, performed brilliantly. During
the War Of 1872 its vessels, assisted
by small gunboats, protected our coast
al trade from the ravages Of the hos
tile ships sent out by Great Britain,
1.-The Mistress of the Seas" to harass
our coast towns and our shipping. In
addition to fighting off privateers, it
also ran down and captured many
British merchantmen. In the wars
with the Seminole Indians in Florida
this service co-operated with the army
and navy in breaking up the rendez-
vous Of the Indians, in transporting
troops and supplies, in carrying dis
patches and in blocking rivers. In
the Civil war it had a part in both
naval engagements and in blockade
work.
Thirteen revenue cutters co-operated
with the navy and seven with the
army during the Spanish-American
war. One of these, the McCulloch,
helped Dewey at the Battle of Manila
Bay and won special commendation
from the admiral and another, the
Hudson, took part in the action at
Cardenas, Cuba. The officers and the
crew of the Hudson were awarded
medals by congress for their rescue
work Of the torpedoboat, Winslow, in
this engagement.
This fine tradition was carried on
by the coast guard service during the
World war. On April IL, 1917 Pres
ident Wilson modified the coast guard
and the lighthouse service under the
command Of the secretary of the navy
for the express purpose of resisting
the submarines. which it was virtual
ly certain that Germany would send to
attack our coast. How real that dam
ger was and the important part which
the coast guard played in curling the
ravages of these deadly under-sea
fighters was revealed for the first time
two years ago when Little, Brown and
company published William Bell
Clark's book, when U-Boats Came to
America"
In addition to operating in home
waters, the boats of the coast guard
service also served on the other side
of the Atlantic. Six of its cruising
cutters were sent abroad to join the
naval forces in the war zone. princi-
pally as ocean escorts working from
England to Gibraltar. While engaged
in this service, the Tampa was sunk

training of airplane pilots, and accord
ingly arrangements were made for our
men to enter flying schools in England,
France and Italy after they had passed
their preliminary tests at home. Va
cancies wer" held for us in the schools,
but we were unable to take full advan-
tage of this opportunity for training
because of the delay in sending over
flyers. However, we proceeded with
the establishment of our own training
centers, the first of which, located at
Issoudun, was planned for capacity
of 800 pilots by spring.
Use OF Gas New Problem.
The use of poisonous gases in war
fare had been discussed at The Hague
conference in 1899. with the result
that several nations pledged them
selves against the employment of pro-
jectiles the only object of which was
to give forth suffocating or poisonous

as the result Of that disaster.
Chaplains, coast guardsmen-they
also served and died. But there is
still another group whose sacrifices
are too little known and whose men,
DRY should be honored on Memorial
day. They are the 271 heroic women,
members Of the army nurse corps, who
laid down their lives Although none
was killed in action, three were wound
ed by enemy fire. Two lost their lives
and one was seriously wounded in an
explosion in target practice on one of
our transports at sea. A hundred
more had narrow escape from death
when the transport on which they had
just embarked had a collision in New
York harbor which sent it TO the bot
tom. But pneumonia and influenza
caused the death of nearly $50 and
overwork, exhaustion and poor living
conditions accounted far the deaths of
the remainder who gave their lives
for their country just as truly as did
any soldier who fell in the firing line.
Three members of the army nurse
corps received the American Distin-
guished Service cross. Here are their
citations: Miss Helen G. McClelland,

that evening. AS this was exactly three
months after l had reached Paris. the
time seemed to be passing very rapid
ly, with little apparent progress
against the day when an American
army should be on the front line.
The Importance of shipping for
America was beginning TO be consid-
cred in allied circles. / received a
letter from General Robertson. British
chief of staff. who spoke of their in
creasing losses and of his anxiety re-
garding the voyage of our troops
across the Atlantic. As TO tonnage
for US, he said. it was entirely between
Great Britain and ourselves. as none
of the other allies could furnish any
to speak of.
On top of this. in conference a few
days later with Lord Derby. the Brit
ish minister of war, | was told that
on to furnish US with ships as trans
ports.
The substance of General Robert.
sons letter was cabled TO Washington
suggesting the importance of taking
advantage of the opportunity offered
to obtain additional shipping. few
days later we were told that needful
arrangements for transatlantic trans
ports were being made by the ship
ping board.
Gloomy Time for Allies.
There was little in the general stu
alton to give comfort to the allies.
Losses by the British through continu-
ing operations were still growing.
There no longer remained any doubt
as to Russia's fate, and it was conse-
quently certain that German troops on
that front would be released for serv-
ice in the west. Under the circum-
stances the tired allied people were
easily Influenced by rumors.
The pope's proposal, issued in Au-
gust, started some talk of peace. but
as 1t failed to condemn Germany's vio-
lation of treaties and her inhuman SUBJ
marine warfare, the note did not make
a favorable impression on the allies.
In fact, it was criticized in terms that
were not at all moderate The vari-
Gus replies from the different govern
ments did. however, arouse some hope,
which was altogether nwarranted by
the real attitude of the belligerent
powers on either side.
The discussion was unfortunate, be-
cause the French people, not realizing
that peace was improbable, lost some
of their courage, and the depression
from this and other factors caused un-
easiness among both civil and military
leaders.
From our sources Of information.
which included the intelligence bu-
reaus Of the allied armies we got the
impression that Austria. Bulgaria and
Turkey would make peace on any reas-
enable terms if they could do so.
