" CHEMISTS PREDICT MORE DEADLY WAR New Discoveries Reported to Convention Tell of Means of } Universal Destruction. By the Amsociated Press, ITHACA, N. Y, ¥NT, pleric acid and other high explosives, it is asserted, will be &hot off with greater speed and make war more deadly as the result of the fnvention of & new booster detonator of wide application in both peace and war, described today before the American Chemical Society by the inventor, Bennett Grotta of Tam- aqua, Pa. The time September 11— of explosion of TNT wnder any circumstances is_infini- tesimal, it was explained. By the use of the new detonator it is pos- sible, it is declared, to produce the time of explosion still further. The future of automotive transpor- tation in America, T. A.

The largest and best pro- teeted cities, irrespective of their size or distance, will be exposed continu- ously to destruction and mutilation. There will be no way of safeguard- ing women or children or the old or the infirm “But the reme lies not in stoppi of chem- istry in warfarc. . . .
