BIG PART N ffen Thousand and Soldiers Toll Turning Out Shells to‘Roult Germans. Edgewood. Arsen in Maryland Won lace of Leadersbip Over Allies In Scferitific’ Progress and iness of Output—Gas Fac-~ tory City In Itself. ' ‘Baltimore, Md.—While the men who. Bave been working in shipyards and tmunition plants have. recelved just praise for their fulfillment of patriotic duty, there isan army of nien 10,000 strong who have warked faithfully, ¢arefully screened from public. notice; Performing some of the most. impor-. tant work of the“war, work which waa. largely responsible for the early sign- fig of the armistice, who have re- @gived no recognition ‘at all. ‘Day after day they have secretly, worked in the manufacture of the pol-' fonous gases which routed the Huns and impressed upon the Germans ‘the: ingenuity and resourcefulness of the, American brain. ‘These men of the Edgewood arsenal | stayed on-American soll, never had'the: excitement of an ocean voyage or ‘ad- venture in a foreign country or th hero-worship of ‘those who, ‘have ‘bee overseas, and yét while. ‘staying Hight in this country, they ran greater risits than niany..of the ni¢n on the, firing. Mine. , 09. 2< 300-at-One Time in Hospital. Phe ‘hospital -at ‘Kdgewood is now ‘occupied by 300 men: who have been gassed or burned while about ‘their country’s work. There have ‘been. as greac heroes at ‘Edgewood as on the battlefield. There is in the ‘hospital a blue-eyed boy in early manhood, smiling bravely through scars which are today as vivid ‘as the first day, months ago, when they brought him, a writhing bit of humanity, to ‘the hospital. Nor is-he the,only one. ‘There are others, some of whom have been gassed twice and thrice and are today invalided in Colorado, having devel- oped tuberculosis, Hundreds of: others are -maimed ‘and will always bear. the miarks of thelr sacrifice for-Uncle Sam, which they. gave so giadly without ‘any: of the glory, stripes, promotion or ‘encourage- ment given to the ;men in the camps: and trenghex; The, signing of the armistice has Dinde it possible for the: public to have. the first insight into the vast, work, which has been accomplished at the}: Edgewood arsenal, where has been’ -Mmanufactured and ‘shippefl safely. “over there? ihore gas than has been; made by England and. France ¢ éin- bined. ‘Far ‘removed from prying eyes, these thousands: of ‘men have: produced gases ‘which will’ go down in history as among the greatest achievements of the war. } Gas Factory a City In Itself... ‘Where on October 24, 19}7, sfood a bare waste of forest, now stands what is ‘a-small manufacturing town and a city in its activities, nL chemical plants have risen with lightning rapid- ity. There are the chlorine, phosgene, chloralin and mustard gas plants, and then down near the water the. large filing plant where the big shells were filed with deadly poisons and sent.on their errand of freeing humanity. Edgewood arsenal covers a tract of 900 -acres, adjoining its companion unit, ‘the iat Aberdeen © pro’ ne grounds, wh: 2 gus were fied ‘out ‘that. were “ée- ash the strongest of-Ger- tions, At. the gtsenal \ Utswas confidently pre-. dicted, - wg ively; Be- cured, ané“certainly. at ‘smaller’ hu- man cost, by the gas products which it was confidently declared would smother the Metz forts. Upon these 300 acres:have been con- structed a large number of immense chemical plants with the necessary ad- Juncts, all on an extensive scale, con- nected by 35: miles of. railway, oper- ated by United Stites army crews, | working three shifts a day. At first it was attempted to run the arsenal with civilian labor, but. the hazardous character of the employment made‘this: class: of employee so uncertain, “al- ‘though fancy wages were offered, that ft became necessary to use. enlisted men exclusively throughout the plant. \ ‘The result has been that Work ‘6f: ‘a highly alized iittre and extra’ bezardous has been done by men re-, ceiving from $30-a month up, and {in- der rigorous military. discipline... The research, laboratory. work of the |- ‘arsenal has been highly fruitful and the gases of the “Gern be mild in terrible products. ‘of t Sapeteed, Furniture Uphélstery Repaired, Re- finished and Packed. ——————— ete eae ittees like “/) ata On, Yeaving : ‘connecy WT _ poss.
