MT. LAKE PARK

Here's an unofficial slogan coming
from Fort George G. Meade, Md: "If
you're not in the scrap over there, get
in the scrap over here" All week
past we have been receiving clippings
and letters regarding the salvaging of
scrap iron. This month you will have
a chance to show what you can do.
Here in the Park we were amazed at
the many people picking up old nails
and small gadgets of iron. In many
counties out of this state there are
regular official salvage depots. Why
not one in this county, or better yet,
one here in our own community. One
letter that came to us seemed to
cover the situation a great deal clear
er than we could possibly do We give
it to you just as it came to us.
To those who have been asking
themselves, "What can l do to help
the War effort? here is your answer.
Every piece Of iron ore used to make
guns, tanks. etc, must be fused with
an equal amount of scrap iron. The
streets and alleys of Mountain Lake
are Uttered with this essential.
The iron in one old shovel is suf-
ficient for four hand grenades-an old
lawn mower will help make six 3-inch
shells. A worthless old tire will pro-
vide material for ~ gas masks A few
hundred worn out skillets or kettles
will make one big aerial bomb.
Farmers can bomb Toxic, three hits
minute for couple of years, if they
will rake up and send every pound of
scrap on farm. Old nails are par
ticularly good because nails are made
Of better material to start with.
SO let me suggest that every time
you walk out, bring home all the old
metal you see until you fill big box
which you will have placed on your

Diesel Engine

Danger of War Gases
In Contamination of
Food Is Pointed Out


Ways by which foods may be pro
tected from contamination by war
gases, and may be contaminated
to use an up-to-date term-if exposed
to such gases, are pointed out by DIR.
William F. Reindollar, Chief of the
State Bureau Of Chemistry in recent
informal report to DR.. R. H. Riley, Di-
rector of the State Health Depart
ment The report, which follows, was
prepared in response to requests for
non-technical information on the sub
ject.
Chemical warfare agents are gen
orally classified as % vesicants or
blister gases mustard, Lewisite,
ethyldichlorarsine); (2) lung irritants
Chlorine, chloropicrin, phosgene); (3)
lacrimators or tear gases (bromo-
benzylcyanide. acetophenone); az
strenutators or 'sneeze' gases adam
site, diphenylchlorarsine); 90 smoke
(sulfurtrioXide. titanium tetrachlor-
ide); and CO incendiaries powdered
magnesium, white phosphorus, Their
mit). There are also gases which are
systemic poisons such ds hydrocyanic
acid carbon monoXide, and hydrogen
sulfide, which however are of little
value in chemical warfare.
chemical agents most likely to con-
taminate or damage foods are
mustard gas, those containing arsenic
such as Adamsite and Lewisite, and
irritant smokes. Direct contact with
either solid, liquid, or vapor forms of
these substances may contaminate
food. Some foods absorb gases very
readily. Among these are oily or fatty
foods, Clutter, cream, meat, fat,
mayonnaise, etc., flour and cereal
products, and to a somewhat lesser de-
gree, green vegetables.
"The best protection for foods and
drinking water is to keep chemical
agents away from them. This may be
done by placing them in sealed cans,
bottles, or jars. The average domestic
refrigerator is gas tight and will af-
ford adequate protection if kept closed
during a gas attack. Cellophane if
sealed is impervious and makes a good
protective material which may be dis
carded. WaXed paper gives limited
protection against gas vapors and
little or none against liquid chemical
agents. Paper bags and cloth sacks
are of no value at all for this purpose.
"Sealed food containers which have
been exposed to mustard or Lewisite
gas may be decontaminated by treat
ing with paste or 'slurry' of equal
parts of chlorinated lime and water,
followed by adequate rinsing. Foods
that are contaminated by volatile
gases such as chlorine or phosgene
may often be rendered fit for use by
airing thoroughly, washing, or if pos
sible, heating gently Such foods al
though safe will probably be unpalat-
able.
IF food in an open container is con-
taminated with mustard gas, arsenical
agents, or irritant smokes there is nc
sure way of rendering it safe Regard
less of the need it should be de-
stroyed."
