Gas Warfare
“ Devil’s Cookery Book ” GERMAN ORGANISER’S VIEWS. IMPRACTICABLE IN FUTURE STRUGGLES. ißy Cable—Press Association—Copyright.] (Received 21, 9.40 a.m.) London, Dee. 20. The “Observer’s” Berlin correspondent state’s that Professor Julius Myer, organiser of the German gas attacks in war time, has written a “Devil’s Cook ery Book,” revealing the composition of German poisonous gases. Nevertheless, he suggests that the next war, whenever it occurs,'wTTl be the most humane ami not the most terrible, on record. Professor Moyer assorts that there is no danger of aerial gas bombardments causing terrible losses, owing to antiaircraft measures and the impossibility of obtaining intensity of fumes from the long range at which aeroplanes would be compelled to operate. Gas warfare should be the safest, owing iu the possibility of equipping troops with chemical antidotes to resist the must dangerous gases until only temporary disablement was likely, from which men would recover as speedily as patients from anaesthetics. The death rate, would be nil.—-(A. and N.Z.)
