Excerpt from War on War: Campaign Textbook 1. London in a Gas Raid. "Is it true that practically the entire population of London could be killed by gas within twelve hours?" Thomas A. Edison was asked recently. "It is not true," he replied, "the thing could be done within three hours. There is in existence no means of preventing an airplane flotilla from flying over London tomorrow and spreading over the millions of Londoners a gas which would asphyxiate those millions in a relatively short time." 2. The Lewisite Gas. "The Americans had ready for the 1919 campaign the Lewisite gas, a mysterious compound whose effects, however, are known. It is invisible; it sinks so that it searches out life in cellars and dugouts; breathed, it is instantaneously deadly; if it settles on the skin, even over a fairly small area, it poisons the system, causing death within twelve hours. On good authority it is stated that a dozen one-ton air bombs loaded with Lewisite gas could, given a favorable wind, eliminate all life in Berlin. This gas was not used in the Great War, but we have the formula for its manufacture. So, doubtless, have the European nations by now." - Will Irwin, War Correspondent and Lecturer. 3. Gas Not Banished Yet. "You can bet your life that if we have another war and if we are attacked, we'll use gas," said Rear Admiral William S. Sims, U.S. N, at the annual dinner of the Albany Medical College Alumni Association, June 13, 1922.If we are attacked, we will use gas, he continued, and we wont care how, when, or why. 4. A War of Life and Death Uses Every Effective Weapon. "The new warfare is marked by the ruthless use of every possible agency for destruction of life and material.
