West Germans Given Nerve Gas Testing Aid
West Germany admitted the United States supplied small quantities of nerve gas for testing to aid gas warning gear and masks. Rep Richard D. McCarthy criticized the move as dangerous and potentially illegal under the 1954 West European Protocol, noting questions about clearance with other nations and U S storage on German soil. The episode follows earlier disclosures of nerve gas storage in Okinawa and plans to bury old gas in the Atlantic coast.
