CHEMICAL WARFARE
ACTIVITY IN GERMANY ALLEGED TOXIC MATERIAL BOUGHT Reed. 9.50 a.m. ‘ PARIS, Tuesday. The rapporteur on the Army estimates told the Chamber that though Germany benevolently ratified the convention against chemical warfare, the German chemical industry was purchasing toxic material which was adaptable to warfare, simultaneously with the turning out of smoke-screen apparatus, and likewise fire-extin-guishers which were easily convertible into flame-throwers.

Russia and Japan were also studying, while Britain and Italy only would renounce chemical warfare in the case of their opponents similarly renouncing it.
