The assertion was that Doctor Schweitzer employed, financed and guided u Doctor Schoele, who, at Bogota, N. J..

Occupy lug a place In what is to he a s. mi official brief to congress, its accuracy would ordinarily remain unimpeacliec yet according to n former federal war chemist find professor of clionii.-try the statement is completely wrong in

Doctor Schweitzer may have onployed, financed and guided DncP • Schecle for some reason, hut no h cause the younger man had just dis covered mustard gas. for that was th'work of Victor Meyer, a chemist ol Heidelberg, In DSC,, or 83 years m ■, anil 2M years before the world war began. The gas is generally known to chemists and has been since Its discovery by Meyer. Although given tl • name of mustard gas during the war t has been recognized by chemists since 1 SS(‘ as diehlordielhyl-sulphlde and tl “ has been recogrilzed by chemists since methods, statement of the gas' romp" sition and a remarkably complete investigation and description of lis terrible physiological effects publish' The chemical Journal furnishing il • news of the discovery in 18S6 i.s wide-y read and said by chemists to be on II • shelves of every chemical library. Hence, whatever Doctor Schweitzer did l"r Doctor Sehceie find whi'icv.. Doctor Schecle may have done for Ha German government he did not di cover mfistard gas in 1913 and trai mlt Its formula to the authorities a; Berlin.
