IS GAS BAN A BLIND?
COMMUNIST STARTLES REICHSTAG “IMMENSE PREPARATIONS” (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) (United Service) Reed. 9.5 a.m. LONDON, Sunday. According to the Berlin correspondent of the “Daily Mail,” the Reichstag was startled during the debate on the Bill ratifying the Geneva Poison Gas Protocol when the Communist deputy, Stocker, declared that the ratification was merely a blind to divert attention from Germany’s immense poison gas preparations. “This Bill provides for the prohibition of so-called bacteriological warfare,” he said, “but what Is the use of this when everybody knows that the cultivation of the most dangerous bacilli has been going on for years in the Baden aniline works?” The Bill passed the Reichstag by 16 votes to four. The House afterwards adjourned.
