Protective Measures Found W WASHINGTON, March 29 -(ff) A survey of coast guard units in Alaska convinced three high- ranking officers of the SPARS, coast guard women's reserve, that assignment of SPARS to the ter ritory, will he welcome. : "There are many jobs in Alaska lor which SPARS are well quali fied," asserted Comdr. Helen B. Schleman, assistant director of the SPARS. "Both officers and enlisted men are eager to see SPARS take over jobs. Many of these men are anxious to be sent Into more active combat duty. Others have been stationed in - Alaska for long periods and de serve transfer to the states." Tentative plans call for station ing about 300 enlisted SPARS ana 30 racers at aistnct heaa- quarters in Ketchikan. Assign ment of SPARS Jo other towns, including 'Sitka and Juneau, also is under consideration. Commander Schleman said the civilian organizations of the Alas ka communities "are ready to wel come the SPARS into various community activities. -roe Uu, cnamDers 01 com merce, Rotary clubs and mayors of various towns expressed great interest in the possible assignment of SPARS to their communities,' she added. witn commander scnieman on the inspection tour were Lt. Cmdr. Teresa M. Crowley, newly appointed SPAR personnel officer in the Alaska district, and Lt L. Dorothy Be vis, SPAR personnel officer at Seattle. -I By Frank Carey Associated Press Science Writer II WASHINGTON Why havent ! we Used poison gas against 'the Japanese? There are several, reasons, 'although there are no' treaty restrictions against its use in that war theatre. ; Theoretically, the use of noxious or blistering fumes would seem to be an ideal tactical weapon to drive the enemy out of the concrete- and-steel fortifications encountered on island outposts. - i f : This would seem to be especial ly true since we have developed methods of spraying gases from airplanes with a minimum of ex posure to our own fighters. But there are these consider a- tions: President Roosevelt has thrice said we would employ gas only as a retaliatory measure of the enemy himself started using , it. Our whole philosophy on the mat ter is that gas warfare is "in humane" and that we,, as a civiliz ed nation, would not take the first step. The president has been dear that Axis use of gas against "any one" of the United Nations would be regarded as. use against us. Since he last made such a pro nouncement, the JChinese have charged that the Japanese have used gas against them in certain instances, but' whether the evi dence is conclusive enough to war rant any action on our part re mains to be seeh. While there have been no offi- Here's a New Way to Put on The Feed Bag CLEVELAND Percale chick en feed bags because of shortages in white cloth bags prompts re quests similarto , this one from dealers: I want a 100-pound bag of scraicn zeea, provided you can give me a bag of the same pat tern I got here last week." xne pracuce started' about a month ago, explains C. A. Hen- ricksen, local feed dealer.. "The gist of it is," says Hen- ricxsen, mat one Dag makes an apron and two bags make a dress. The material is of better quality than women have been able to fbuy lately. They're going for the new feed bags in a big way since manufacturers were forced to re sort to use of gaily-figured dress goods as feed sacks. Brothers Meet Everywhere SIOUX CITY, Ia.-tP-Although one was here and one was in Salt, Lake City, the - brothers George and Albert DesJarlais joined the navy the same day. .Meting as they were about to be shipped out, they bid each oth er a fond farewell only to be as signed to the same ship. I After being I separated for months, they ran into each other on a street in Perth, Australia. I After 30 months of sea duty, the ships of both put into port for repairs. Starting from opposite coasts, they arrived home within three days of each other neither j knowing the other was on fur lough. ; f Soldiers Take Cash, Sweet Nothings Co . FORT WORTH.

C nit 11 cial statements on the subject, the general view In diplomatic! circles is that we would take retaliatory action oiuy 11 there was; major use of gas on a large front, such as when the Germans first used it against the Canadians at Ypres during the last war. H ( With regard to the Chinese, there la also this,factor: Some ob servers feel that if we should take action against the Japanese for a reported use of gas in isolated in stances: against the Chinese,? the Japanese; might make it still worse for the Chinese In the large areas of China they now control, . Another possible reason we nave not employed gas is that protective measure against these 1 weapons have been highly developed since the last Nu"- We have j perfected clothing, salves, detecting devices as well as improved macks, and presumably the Japanese have also so that use of gas. might not be so physically effective as one would ' Now that we have taken most of the small island outposts in the Pacific without using gas, it is un likely that we will use it, because it, would be far more effective in small areas than in large ones, be cause of wind conditions and other factors. I . M: But military officials will snake no statements on the possibilities of using gaspossibly to keep the enemy guessing. Gas probably is more powerful psychologically than physically. If we wanted to use gas, we'd. be breaking no treaty If we did it Whereas ,- Germany signed the Geneva protocol prohibiting the use of toxic gases in' time of war, the United States and Japan did not. j Maj. f Gen.

Porter, chief of the Army's Chemical War fare Service, has said: ' - v I The Senate of the United States after full consideration of the facts, refused to tie the hands In war of the greatest scientific and indus trial nation of the world.
