    Death Sp
iray
Held by Nazis
During War
I By Keanie Taylor
Associated Press Scinc Reporter
MOUNTAIN VIEW. Calif.. Feb.
24 -(AV- The nazis had a liquid
death spray potent enough to Tia ve
knocked out whole division of
men in exposed positions, says a
U. S. army engineer who helped
destroy the stuff.
A dime - sized spot of the liquid
.on the skin, unless wiped off
quickly, would kill a man in two
minutes, asserts Alaj. James M.
Graham. It would penetrate or
dinary clothing and some kinds
of eas masks.
- The Germans called thi3 liquid
Tabun. The word is a combina
tion of the names of the scientists
who invented it. Army intelligence
officers found 125,000 tons of the
stuff stored in carefully hidden
caves In Bavaria.
Graham had charge of the en
gineering phases of its disposal.
He related some of the details in
a national security week address
before the San Jose, Calif., cham
ber of commerce.
, Tabun was a military secret un
til about six months ago, when
some information about it leaked
out to the American public. One
thousand tons was spared from
destruction and shipped to Aber-
Graham reported. Dockmen, un
able to smell chlorine in the
Shipment, refused to unload it.
Service personnel had to be used
cor the Job, Graham said.
The stuff is so nearly odorless
that a person has to know exactly
What he is smelling for before he
tan detect it with his nose. To the
experienced nose it has a faint
ruity aroma. Graham added. It
ooks something like used crank
case oiL
Subject to Soviet Control
' The scientists who developed
Tabun were in Berlin when the
Russians took over and probably
became subject to Soviet control,
plajor Graham said.
When first news of the poison
pray leaked out the army's che
fnists still hadn't figured out its
formula but they probably know
t by now, Graham reported.
- This much is known: It is a
powerful nerve poison, like snake
venom, but it has the added abili
ty to penetrate the skin and get
Into the blood stream. It does not
require a body opening or a.-cut
In the skin as a Dortal of entry.
It is very persistent it will re
main potent in the sprayed area
for a long time.
Graham expressed the belief
that the Russians wouldn't be in
terested in making the stuff even
If they got the formula from the
captive scientists. Its long - term
Contaminating ability is a disad
vantage except in special circum
stances, he said.

Dispute Marks
Finale of Labor
Bill Hearings
' WASHINGTON, Feb. 24
The senate labor committee's tu
multous public hearings on the
Truman labor bill came to an end
Wednesday on the same note of
discord which prevailed from the
start of the sessions.
The committee will now decide
whether or not the bill will go
to the senate floor as drafted.
The bill would repeal the Taft
Hartley law and replace it with a
modified Wagner act..
The final flare-up at the public
hearings was between Senator
Taft (R-Ohio). leader of the anti
repeal forces, and William Leiser
son, a labor-management arbitrat
or and a former member of the
national labor relations board.
Leiserson told the committee the
Taft-Hartley law is "just no good'
and heads "toward government
dictation."
Taft, who got around to pound
ing the table with his fist before
he finished, retorted that Leiser
son was making "an utter mis
representation of the intention or
the effect" of the law.
Defending the T-H law injunc
tion provision, Joseph E. Moody,
president of the Southern Coal
Producers association, was asked
by Senator Morse (R-Ore) wheth
er the mine owners want the Taft
Hartley injucntion provision
against critical strikes "in order
to hold a threat over Mr. Lewis
. . . and maybe get him into jail.1
"No," Moody replied. "The Taft-
Hartley law requires honest bar
gaining."
But Morse pressed the matter.
saying: "If he (Lewis) said its
no soap, gentlemen, you don't
think, do you, that if you've got
an injunction weapon behind the
door, isn't that sort of loading the
dice in your favor?"
Moody said he did not agree.
The emphasis, he added, - should
be on collective bargaining, not
tne injunction.
Plans Nearing
Completion for
McKay Party
Plans are nearing completion
for the Salem citizens' party to
pay respects to the new Oregon
governor, Douglas McKay, as i
fellow resident of Salem.
The public party will be a com
bination of reception and dance
on Monday evening, March 7. de
signed to honor McKay's two
decades of service to his city,
county and state. Mayor Robert
ELfstrom heads a large group of
committees which have been busy
for over a month planning the
affair.
Gov. and Mrs. McKay will greet
guests in the Mirror room of the
Marion hotel. Four orchestras jrtil
play for dancing in both the arm
ory and the Crystal Gardens.
A number of loose leaf sheets
will be circulated through the
crowds to be signed. These sheets
will be included in a guest book
to be presented the governor and
his wife at the armory late in
the evening.
Mayor Elfstrom has stressed the
informality of the -affair. He re
marked Monday, "we want every
one to come and honor Governor
McKay, a man who has given so
much of his time and effort to
Salem." He added that "this is
everyone's party and informality
is strictly the order."
The reception will be held be
tween 830 and 10 pjn. Refresh
ments will be served at both
dances throughout the evening. C
A. Kells Is chairman of the com
mittee on decorations.
