DEADLY NAZI GAS
(Rec. 1.30 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 3 The Germans had war gas 100 times deadlier than the last war’s mustard gas, one drop of which would cause complete paralysis and kill within 20 minutes, says the “Daily Express.” q It is revealed that the Germans had 10,000 tons of bombs and shells filled with this gas and intended to use it as a final V weapon to deal a kncck-out blow by dropping gas cargbes on Britain. Scientific workers at the I. G. Farben laboratories discovered this colourless gas. They worked in special rubber clothing which they changed ten times each shift. Nevertheless, some workers were killed through the gas seeping through to the skin.
