Possibility of Gas Attack
Cincinnati Enquirer

tCincnpati Enquirer .q
While reports on the use of poison gas by enemy
nations crop up periodically. and while there always
will be possibility that such tactics will be employed
as the Axis cause grows and more desperate
there seems little real for believing that over
all gas attacks form part of immediate German and
japanese military plans. q
There are two excellent reasons for this. First the
enemy realizes so long continue to increase our
air strength, that retaliation will be terrible and
devastating Second, study Of the effects OF gas
warfare during the first World War shows how well
the Allies even then able to cope with what was
brand-new battle weapon.
When Germans first used chlorine gas in April,
1915 against French and Canadian troops at Ypres,
the effects most imposing. Entirely unprepared
to meet such attack the Allies suffered 20000
casualties in that comparatively small sector OF
those, 5000 or rs per cent-proved fatal
Immediately Allied military authorities began to
work out methods for combating gas attacks, and
to produce gas for by their own troops. The
tempo of gas warfare increased greatly. In 1913,
Allied and German armies used four times the tonnage
in gas that used in 1916
AS the offensive use of gas progressed, so pro-
crossed the defensive for combating such at
taeks AS against fatality rate OF 25 per cent In that
first attack the rate at the end of the war was one
Allied dead out of thrtysx gas casualties To-day,
with Allied troops and British civilians well trained
gas defense, it is probable that the toll would be
much less than that. f@-
In the first World War, Russia had the highest
number of casualties result of gas attack Some
470 500 Russian troops put out OF action by TINS
method Of those casuals. more than 10 per cent
died 1t is entirely likely, with that record behind
them. that Red leaders now are as well prepared
to defend themselves against repetition OF the Ger
man gas operation as are the Allied armies
Not only are the United Nations ready to defend
against possible gas attack; we also are ready TO
launch such attacks ourselves In every battle zone
our armies have on hand ample supplies of gases
Just as deadly any the Nazi mind, evil as it is,
ever has devised BY this threat alone, good part
of Hiters probable desire to use gas has been
discouraged.

This is not a decisive dag in the
planetary direction. Benefic aspects
balance adverse influences. There

HEART AND HOME: The clergy
are under. a promising rule OF. the
stars which seems to assure accept
ance of religious teachings by men
and women, especially those who
previously have been interested in
philosophical Oh, oriental cults. Re-
turn. to long cherished faiths will
be encouraged by planetary influen-
ces. Again reports of miracles that
result from answered prayers will
! be numerous from battle scenes.
| Chaplains of Army and Navy will
render extraordinary. service which
puts them on the plane with world
| famous heroes. as
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Women
as factors in the world of business
will be prominent because they are
growing in power and efficiency
which will cause the continuance
of great numbers in postwar trade
and industry. Only minority OF
the volunteers in shops and factor
les will relinquish wage-earning in
peacetime. it is prognosticated. This
means that the problem of provid-
ing employment for returning SOL
diers will be greatly emphasized,
but it, will be solved by expanding
enterprise. ss 81
NATIONAL ISSUES: Return of
great numbers of Jews to Palestine
will be opposed by many statesmen,
American and English, but accord

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR S
Political crises in Britain and the
