GREENSBORO Ddlly NeWS/
The Daily News does not at the
moment recall just how far it went in
insisting that somebody really ought
to do something about Judge Grady S
acting as grand dragon of the Klu
Klux Khan. 1t does seem to remember
that it contented itself with a rather
soulful ooh, YEAH" when the judge
laid his pistol on the desk in front
of him while presiding over a trial
at which there was a suggestion that
violence might be offered to the de-
PENDANT This is sort of PREDATORY to
an admission that Judge Grady is not
one of our chief weaknesses-we have
to take him for the matter of several
years, but oh, how we could leave him
if occasion afforded!
His most recent eXhibitionism con-
sisted in closing down the January
term of Vance county Superior court
in the middle of the week because
counsel for the defense and the pro-
secution in a case charging second
degree murder-we think in the form
of criminal operation-got to lbick-
ering over the selection of jury.
ering. If there is anybody who doesn't
have to put up with officious, nag
cling lawyers, it is the judge presid-
ing. So, although we don't know
whether Judge Grady desired to at
tend the inauguration or do some
thing else, we shall insist that he isn't
earning his wages of something like
$4,000 per annum when he walks off
the job and leaves trial he has be-
gun for some other judge to finish.
AS regards his walk-out in Vance
the situation is aggravated by the fact
that there are 80 prisoners jamming
and overlooking the Jail at Hender-
son and the jailer has reported to the
grand jury that conditions are we'll
nigh intolerable. If he wished to defer
the murder trial, he might at least
have tried the appellants from re-
corder's court and others charged
with mere breaches of the peace
something less serious than homicide
These would have been just about
his size, anyhow.

Now mustard gas does not have to be put down all at once It is a persistent" gas that will re- main effective from three days to a week, and longer in soft ground or in protected spots where wind and air may not reach it effectively.
 Mustard gas actually is a sort of oily spray, lingering where it is dropped and blistering all who touch contaminated objects or come within range of its vapor. Because of it's persistence, mustard gas can be laid down a patch at a time, so a single enemy air fleet could make repeated trips if it had near by base. But calculate the trips necessary to soak 320 square miles of New York at 465 plane loads a square mile.
 Other gases are less persistent. Phosgene, ranked with mustard as one of the successful gases, loses its effectiveness in the air in 10 to 15 minutes, so if a city is to be wiped out with it, the whole job must be done in two or three min utes.
 For gassing city area with phos- gene, 3,628 large bombs per square mile are estimated as necessary. That takes 18l planes per square
