Gas Types
Public Should Know
Different Kinds

Following are the types Of gases
encountered which the public
should know:
PERSISTENT AGENT - One
which will maintain an effective
vapor concentration i'm the air
at point of release for more than
10 minutes.
NON PERSISTENT AGENT
One whose effectiveness IL
dissipated within 10 minutes.
CASUALTY AGENT - One
capable OF creating a dangerous
or killing concentration.
HARASSINC AGENT - One
used to force masking and slow
up enemy operations.
SCREENING SMOKE - Used
to blind hostile observations; has
little effect upon personnel.
INCENDIARY - A chemical
agent which, upon exposure TO
air. generates heat and causes
fire.
LUNG IRRITANT - Causes
irritation and Inflammation OF
the bronchial tubes and lungs
when breathed.
VESICANT, OR BLISTER
GASES-Affects both exterior
and or interior of human body,
causing blisters and infiamms-
ton.
LACRIMATOR, OR TEAR
GASES-Affect eyes, causing
smarting and watering.
STERNUTATOR GENT-
Causes sneezing and headaches,
followed by nausea and tempo
rary disability.
SYSTEMIC POISONS- Affect
heart and nerve action. or cause
strangulation.
DECON TAMINATI ING
AGENT--Any substance used to
absorb, neutralize or destroy
chemical in the field. =.

homes where gas could not reach
them. These places. however,
would be the most dangerous IL
struck by high explosive bombs.
The best protection against both
agencies Is found in gas and
bombproofed cellars, easements
and subways. Air conditioning
apparatus. with minor modifica-
ton, may offer adequate pro-
lection against gas attacks il
windows and doors are reinforced
against blast effect from ex-
ploSions.
Spaces for group protection
should be established in public
buildings. and the gasproofing of
private dwellings should be carried
out by individual home owners.
VULNERABLE SPOTS
The sections of city more
likely to be attacked by enemy
aircraft are those in the vicinity
OF railroads or railroad yards,
public utilities or large manu-
featuring establishments. Bomb
ing Of residential areas will gener-
ally be incidental to an attack
upon some key point Of military
value.
In order to provide for gas

danger in large cities where hum
dreds OF thousands Of people live
within a small area. the base
ments OF all large apartment
houses, school buildings, public
libraries and art museums should
be bomb and gasproofed. Where
a residential section comes In
close contact with factories or
other possible enemy targets, the
number Of gasproofed shelters and
bombproofs should be increased.
HOW TO GAsPROoF
Gasproof first aid shelters will
be needed for gassed patients and
space should be set aside for per-
sonnet Of degassing stations where
those contaminated with blister
gas may battle to remove the gas,
and be given fresh clothing.
In gasproofing all window open
ings should be closed by wooden
shutters and blankets, or some
more elaborate seal, and air lock-
entrances should be provided. The
air lock Is simply q system OF
double doors or arranged that one
door Is always closed and thus no
draft is permitted to enter the
protected room.

Analyses Dangers
OF Gas to Civilians


each, this has already been done
by our office OF civilian defense.
There will be q small group Of
people composing the active. pro-
tective services and the larger
group of passive population for
whom the whole scheme Is de-
signed
The active population is COM
posed Of members OF the local
Are department, medical service,
nurses, aid raids precautions
service and certain anti-gas spe-
cialists. In addition there are
those who are charged with the
maintenance of the necessary
public services, communications,
light power. transportation and
security.
In most countries the active
civilian protective service for gas
defense includes group OF pro-
lection supervisors or wardens, a
first aid group, degassing units.
repair crews and the public services
such as fire, light and power.
The whole idea Is to have an
organization which will permit an
early return to normal conditions
after an attack, and to reduce
casualties among the passive popu-
lation to a minimum. Individual
protection will be required for
every one within the area Of
possible attack.
The members OF the air raids
precautions services and the en-
tire active population will probably
be equipped with service or heavy
duty gas masks and, where neces-
sary, with protective clothing to
keep blister gas from the skin.
Civilian gas masks have been de-
signed for the passive population.
SHOULD RECOGNIZE GASES
Along with the training in the
gas mask, a knowledge of the
gases themselves is required. A
man should be able to recognize
the war chemicals by their char
acteristic doors: training in the
Identification of agents Is an
important part of the protective
scheme. 1t is best accomplished
by exploding small tubes of diluted
agents in the open so that students
can recognize the odors without
danger of getting too much. Gas
Identification sets are provided for
this purpose in the army.
Recently our army has de-
veloped an ointment which is
effective against the liquid blister
gases.
To prepare sufficient numbers
of gasproofed shelters in con-
venient places so that all may be
taken care of quickly and without
undue confusion, is a tremendous
problem, and requires careful
preparation and complete organi-
zation. This preparat on and
organization has already been
undertaken in the United States,
but much remains to be done.
BEST PROTECTION
In an attack from the air. people
may be subjected to both high
explosives and gas. If 1t were not
for high explosives, many safely
might seek refuge In the upper
stories of large buildings or, per-
haps, even the attics OF their own

Copyright, 1919, by Flying"
md0dztne.
In the many writings upon the
dangers to civilian populations
from gas there have been two
views presented; each one has
been the extreme.
Some writers have asserted that
large bombing planes carrying
chemical agents may drench cities
and towns with gas and literally
blot out entire populations, others
have said that chemicals will not
be used against cities and towns
because of ineffectiveneSS.
Both views cannot be correct
In fact, both are absurd. The
truth lies in the middle ground.
Gas is a valuable weapon against
industrial and political cente~s
just as 1t is a valuable weapon
In orthodox warfare and to the
same extent. 1 believe that in a
gas war the chemical weapon
will find wide use as an important
auxiliary to high explosives. II
will not wipe out populations, nor
will it entirely Supplant ex-
plosives; but it will be a most
effective Weapon.
TAKE PRECAUTIONS
II this is true, it follows that
provision must be made for the
Viduals against chemical attack.
Hostile nations are concerned for
their own cities and have been
making careful anti-gas prepa-
rations for the past 10 years or
more.
The Japs, who are especially
vulnerable to gas in their thickly
populated island empire, have for
years held repeated gas defense
exercises in their large cities and
have a well-developed civil de-
Tense scheme.
The great problem in any plan
for protecting populations against
air-chemical attack is to prevent
panic. disorganization and delay in
repair, only most careful training
and preparation will accomplish
this.
TWO METHODS OF DEFENSE
There are two methods of de-
tense: The active defense by the
air forces assisted by anti-aircraft
artillery, and passive defense
which includes protection against
gas.
In the protection of any civil
population IL Is first necessary to
divide noncombatants into groups,
since different equipment and diff
ferent training is required for

Expected to Come Up
At Oct. II Session

Arguments over service, transfer
and chadges are expected at hear
ing before the District Public Utili-
ties Commission on the present
transfer charge between the Wash
ington, Marlboro & Annapolis Motor
Lines and the Capital Transit Co
The hearing sischeduled for 10 am
October IL.
Involved in the case, affecting
many residents of Southeast Wash
ington, Is question of whether
there is any discrimination in fares
or services. Specifically posed for
the hearing is whether, if discrimi-
nation is found, it should be remov-
ed by abolition of the present 2-cent
transfer charge (on locals between
buses of the two companies.
The PUG yesterday ordered con.
struction of a wye turn back in the
streetcar tracks of the Capita
Transit Co., at the end of the Up
shur street line, to permit operation
of streamlined type cars on thi.
line. Two previous plans for a turn
around were disapproved but the
third one, now ordered, calls for ex.
tention of tracks along Upshul
street east of Second street, and or
Second street north of Upshu,
