Excerpt from Delaware State Medical Journal, 1943, Vol. 15Is there a likelihood that a chemical war fare will be launched against the civilian population Of America? NO one can answer this question. The hazards and surprises Of war are many. Since the time Of the cave man, man has taken any means within his power to destroy his enemies. Such is the trend Of pitiless warfare today. Therefore, as medical men, we are bound to consider not only the devastating effects of high explosives in mechanized warfare, but also the possible introduction of acute epidemical diseases, viruses, chemicals, and in short, any meas ures that might be adopted to destroy us and against which no peace-time treaty is an effective deterrent. The Office of Civilian Defense has included protection against gas as a necessary measure Of defense, as has like wise Great Britain.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
