NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1921. liAYS CALLED FAKES General Fries Sajs Reports Are Greatlj Exaggerated , Washington, Nov. 11. Published report of the development of new poison fajna with "super-natural powers" of dostruetlon, or of the tv oiution 01 death dealing rays of ter rible effectiveness, are both "ridicul ously erroneous" and 'Seriously mis lead ln(," Brigadier General Amoa A. FrlfJv chief of tbe chemical warfare, aervlce, asserts In hU annual report recounting the progress made dur ing the last fiscal year by the army chemists "All known rays and power obey certain definite laws," General Fries aid, adding that tha same restric tions applied as well to gases. "Here and there advances are mado In un derstanding those law and direct ing them; but It Is believed proper and safe to say that no real scien tist can yet foresee the day when such control of these substances Is possible that life and machinery can i:be destroyed at anything but short distances distances too short for any considerable use In war." General Fries emphasized his tatement that It was the business of the chemical warfare service to "keep abreast of all thes devel opment," and to Instruct the army nd navy In the handling of chem icals of all kinds. In obtaining In formation as to poisonous chemi cals, he said the service was expert, adding: "It has more Information on poisonous chemicals than exists . In any other Institution In America and possibly In the world." . Kmphaslzlng the uses already found In peace times for this In formation, GeneriJ, Fries pointed to the development by the service of the theory and method of treating colds and other diseases of the nose, throat and lungs with chlorine gas which had already grown Into the establishment of clinics throughout the nation and In the successful ap plication of the method to curing In fluenza among horses and cattle. "It Is not a panacea," General Fries said, "but wherever the chlorini can reach the germs of the disease In sufficient concentra tions It will kill them. The most startling side of this w ork has been Its cure of whooping cough. Prac tically 100 per cent of whooping cough cass have been completely , cured, or the- distressing symptoms nearly all banished. It Is a boon to childhood such as Is not found once In a general ion." Another beneflelent use found for war chemicals had been the appli cations' of tear-gases to assist the police, General Fries said. "Like chlorine It is a boon to mankind and particularly to those who arc charged with the thankless task of upholding the law ln criminal cases.' ' " Generar Fries also spoke of the 'research work In connection with using poisonous compounds to pro tect wooden structures from marine borers, and the efforts to control boll woevel ' depredations In cotton states, adding that the opportunities for such work as this through chem ical research are boundless.

The death of the gearshift In automobiles often has been announced, but the funeral hns never taken place. The latest ad vance ntice of the passing cf the gearshift and the d.fferontlal ts a complicated mcchan'jm shown first at last year's auto salon, and exhibit ed again In perfected form this year by one of the best makers of France. I It has been tried for two years on trucks and tome test cars, but prob ably won't get on tho market until next year, It Is a series of rutchets automatically thrown Into action progressively as the car gains speed so that the motor, continuing to turn at a normal speed, applies its power at what corresponds to a very low gear at tho start, and at an Increas ingly higher gear as the speed In creases, until direct drive Is reached. As there Is neither differential nor gearshift tho driver hns only to start, let in his clutch and step on the accelerator. Tho amount of gas alone determines tho power applied, and the sped, is dependent upon the power required to move the cor. Besides simplifying' a ear, this mechanism Is intended to obviate shock to the engine and prevent stalling tho motor. If a heavy load were put suddenly upon the engine the mechanism automatically would adjust Itself, changing the gear to a lower one that would allow tho en gine to maintain an efficiont speed while propelling the car at a lower , tytte. Pope Urges Priests I To Enter Politics I Munich, Nov. 21. Catholic priests are not only permitted, but are urged to participate in national pol itics, Pope Plus told German cler gymen recently, according to the Bayrlscher Kurler.
