Moreland replied in vigorous language, declaring that the accused can’t hide behind his opinion.” The judge advocate protested against the “unmeasured manner in which coun- sel speaks when he refers to disre- gard of the rule.”” ‘Counsel for the defense,” Col. More- land asserted, “refers to the manual and the rules there as being more lib eral with regard to introduction of evidence than in a civil court.

Poore announced that he did not concur in the legal opinion of the law | member, and thereupon the court with drew for a_fiveminute executive con ference. Upon returning it was an nounced that the court had decided to accept the recommendation of the law member and that the motion to strike out Mrs. Lansdowne’s testimony there fore was overruled. The first witness argument over Mrs. Lansdowne's testimony was Col. J. Edward Cas. sidy of this city, a reserve officer of the Chemical Warfare division of the Army, who qualified himself as an ex pert on chemical warfare. Under ques- tioning by Representative Reid, he said that he was chief engineer of the 92d Division overseas and was commander of the Corps of Engineers with the st Army Division through- out the Argonne offensive. He re turned to the United States in March, 1519, and became executive officer in | the office of the chief of engineers, re- taining that post until 1920, when he | left the service | He said that he had made a study of chemical warfare for combat op erations, had made a study of all in- formation available on the subject, had conferred with officers of the Army {and civilan experts on the matter and had frequently lectured on the sub- ject. He testified that he served at { the front for three months during the { World War when gas operations were | being put into effect on a small scale. Witness Qualified. | The witness then was tested as to | hts knowledge as to the vehicle used for ving such gases into the en emy territory, when Col. Sherman Moreland, trial judge advocate, inter- posed to ask the purpose of the line of questioning. Then Representative Reid directly qualified the witness by asking: “Are vou prepared to state from vour observations and study what amount of gas it takes to cause the evacuation of a certain area?” When the witness replied in the affirmative Representative Reid pro- duced the statements of Gen. Drum before a congressional committee in which the Army officer stated that to gas an area the size of the District of Columbia would take 3,439,150 pounds of mustard gas to cause a concentration. or 9,573,850 pounds of mustard gas to cause an evacuation of the area. Mr. Reid asked if this was correct or incorrect, and he replied that the statements were absolutely incorrect. He then was turned over to the prose- cution for cross-examination. When Col. Moreland asked him if he had }read a certain book approved by | “The only Irrelevant. law acor member, mended following the undesirable to both sides are used. 4fsen. Amos A. Fries, chief of the the | wonld have eag-| ! Martial Overruled After Wrangle—Gas Expert Heard in Colonel’s Defense. Chemical Warfare Service, as & book fo rthat branch of the Army, He unswered in the affirmative Col. Moreland asked him what the book said about the amount of gas | needed to gas a certain area. When he sought to read from the book Col Moreland stopped him and directed him to give it from memory he said he had read it thoroughly. He then answered that every gas attack is a particula problem nd would have to be considered by itself. Discusses {'a'culation. Col. Moreland then asked him if he undertook to say that Gen. Drum's statements were purely theoretical, and he said “no,” that the “rule of thumb” method was used in calcu- lating. Pressed as to what he meant by this, he said that, for iastance, it was a “rule of thumb” that it took 700 artillery shells to cut through a barbed-wire area. This was not al- wiys true, he said, because it m: take )00 shells, and it all depends upon the officers in churge of the fire. Asked if he remembered what the book had to say as to the numper of pounds of mustard gas required to cover an aree of 100 square vards in order to force an evacustion, the wit- ness sald he did not think the book made any reference to square yards, but that the matter was based on a targ of 100 meters square or 10,000 square meters ‘Do you know how many pounds of mustard gas it would be necessary to use on an area 100 yards square asled Col. Moreland Something i ided the witness. e that it does not take 515 pounds of mustard gas for every 100 yards square?” pressed Col.

Drum hased his state- ments on the book would it be inac curate?” asked Col. Moreland. i Reid Raises Objection. At this point Representative Reid arose and threw a bomerang into the prosecution’s questioning when he said that this was not a proper ques- tion hecause it had not been shown that Gen. Drum at the time he made the statements ever knew the book was In existence or that he sed his statements on it. Not Knowing that the book was in existence it was not proper evidence, This paralleled the prosecution’s at- tempt to keep Mrs. Lansdowne's testi- mony out of the record because at the time that Gen. Mitchell made his statement the Shenandoah which Gen. Mitchell sald would “be a whitewash,” had not been completed. Col. Moreland sald that Gen. Drum had hased his statement on the book, after turning to an officer sitting by his side, from whom he obtained the {nformation. tepresentative Reid said that he wanted the records to show that Maj. Willoughby had vouched for this statement. Col. Moreland objected to this, and, for the record, stated that he wes “reliably informed” that Gen. Drum had made the statements in the bLook. Then the witness sald that if Gen. Drum based his statement on the figures and without any knowledge of the subject he would be correc When Col. Moreland asked the wit- ness if Gen. Drum made his state- ments intentionally Mr. Reld objected and the trial judge advocate began a conference with M dent Howze walited patiently moment and then adressed the trial judge advocate, saying.

Moreland. Ccl. Cassidy sald it would require 160,000 pounds roughly, and for an area of 60 square miles 500 tons would be necessary. Says Figures “Absurd.” Taking the flgures given by Gen. l)rll_ll* 9,671,584 peunds of mustard gas as Deing necessary to cause evacua- tion of the District, Col. Moreland again asked if they were correct. The witness replied they were not and it would be “absurd” to assume they were the result of the formula he fol- lowed in determining 900 tons. | Col. Moreland asked that provided | these figures were in the book which the Chemical Warfare Service had ap- {proved would he object to them, and | Representative Reid asked that the [book be produced. An argument en- {sued. and was finally settled by Col.

Representative Reid then took up the questioning and asked why Gen. Drum’s testimony was misleading. “I heard Gen. Drum make four statements,” and here Col. Moreland objected because the witness was not giving a direct answer to the question. Gen. Howze also cautioned the wit. ness ““to stick to the question.” ‘To evacuate the District of Columbia with gas it would require 900 to 1,000 tons, the witness said, but no intelll- gent enemy would use mustard gas, as Gen. Drum referred to. They would use tear gas instead, he added. The trial judge advocate once more objected to the answer because he de- clared Gen. Drum mentioned only mustard gas in_his statement, and Representative Reid declared, “We want to show that he decelved the committee, as mustard gas is not the gas to use. Col.

King, and Gen. Howze ordered them from the courtroom Returning (o the map, Col sidy sald there are 16 square miles in the District “worthy of consideration of an enemy commander. But he would not use musturd gas.” Gen. Howze showed considerable irritation at this answer and inter rupted to once more cautfon the wit ness to stick to the question, adding giving us a lecture on the | e s subject What amount of gas would be re quired for that area?” ked Mr. Reid, Reld “1 object,” said Col.

Col.| Cussidy was asked if gas bumbs were dropped during the late war. and the witness replied they were, but none on large cliles. President Howze| wanted to know what steps had been taken to change any defective datu {in the manunl approved by the Chemi- | cal Warfare Service, which he had| criticized as incorrect. The witness | said he could not answer the question.

Dargue. chief of the war pl section of the Army Afr Service and a pilot for the past 15 years. was the second witness calied. He explained his duties, in cluding handling all matters pertaining to war plans in which the Alr Service was concerned and also to peclal projects like the world flight. He was designated by Gen. Patrick to work on antiaircraft tests and told of the decisior a committee last April to fix 13 cubic feet as | the v 3 1 airp targets gure could be from tests then underwa at Aberdeen Proving | Grounds. The tests there, he said, showed the danger area of an airplane to be about 6,000,000 cubic feet New Target Not Used. Representative Reid questioned him closeiy as to whether this new target as used at the T Tilden, N. antiaircraft tests, and Maj. Dargue plied the commanding oflicer of the 2d Corps Area had be informed of the new figure, but it was not adopted The witness was asked if he was at Camp Dix during the bombin, te there and responded t he | attended thesn as an observer. He said that the tests were to determine | whether the Coust Artillery could | eliminate and shoot down airplanes before the latter reached their 1 Jective. When he was asked if there were orders regarding the publicity in connection with these tests, Col. More- nd interposed an objection, ani the court told Representative Reid tu lay | down a basis for the question. When | he sought to do this there was fur-| ther objection from the trial judse | advocate, but it was not sustained Maj. Dargue testified that there was an order from the War Department in which it was said that it was the de sire of the Secretary of War that pub- licity in connection with these tests be avoided. When he and Gen. Pat rick arrived there, he continued, they found a large number of men in ci vilian clothes who were indentified as reporters. On making some inquiry as to the reason for their presence he was informed by Maj. Wilby that the 1id had been taken off of publicity in the 2d Corps Area. Representative Reld asked him if the lid had been taken off publicity for the Afr Service and he said that it had not. Then getting down to the actual tests, he testified that he heard six alrplanes come over the target, a simulated ammunition dump, and drop thelr “bombs,” which in this case were flares. said that it was night, and | he was unable to see the planes until | after they had performed thelr mi sion, when they turned on their nav gation lights. In all cases, he sald. the machines dropped their flares prior to illumination by the search light on the ground. He said that each bomber, according to orders for the test. was supposed to drop his bombs when in the target’s area. Of- ficers were stationed on the ground to insure that they did this, otherwise they would not score a hit. Had the bombs been dropped in accordance with these orders in time of war, they would have landed past the targets. Under the rules of the tests it was a miss, he said, If they released their bomb before getting within the defined area Testimony Draws Fire. Repeated efforts were made by the prosecution to keep out of the record testimony as to a conferenc called last Summer to discuss insurance for fiyers. The witness testified that he was one of three officers of the War De- partment designated to meet similar committees from the Navy, Post Office Department and Veterans' Bureau, 12 in all, to consider the matter of additional insurance for flyers. Further questioning along this line was halted temporarily when the prosecution sought to develop whether he was the custodian of all the rec- ords relating to this matter, and Rep- resentative Reid sald that this was not proper, as the witness might not have all of the records, but what he did not have the prosecution could produce, if it desired. The courts at this point took a recess until 2 o'clock, leaving the question as to the admissibility of such records as Maj. Dargue had until that time. % PAID ON SAVINGS DEPOSITS MORRIS PLAN BANK Undaer Supervision U. S. Treasury 1408 H ST. N. W.
