General Brigham s recommendations were no doubt prompted in part by the action of the Joint Board in the summer of 1935 in confirming CWS responsibility for research and procurement of chemical warfare materiel for the Army, the Navy, and the Marine Corps.

As a result of our recent visit to Edgewood Arsenal, I am not favorably impressed with the idea of rehabilitating the Chemical Warfare manufacturing plant. It would seem advisable to have more manufacturing work done by commercial plants and utilize funds to become available for the Edgewood Arsenal for experimental and developmental projects. The question of secrecy in manufacturing processes may have some effect on outside manufacture but should not prevent it.

The unrest abroad in the mid-thirties revived interest in incendiary bombs. In 1935 a reporter on the New York Herald Tribune covering the Italian invasion of Ethiopia found a partially burned bomb that had been dropped by an Italian plane. He shipped it back to his newspaper, which gave it to Professor Joachim E. Zanetti of Columbia University, a CWS reserve officer. Zanetti passed it on to the CWS, which then analyzed it. In the summer of 1936 Maj. Gen. Claude E. Brigham sent an officer to Europe to gather information on incendiary bombs. In December of that year, the CWS added an incendiary project to its program, and chemists began experiments. These experiments provided them with the experience and data that were to prove extremely useful when the service began to produce incendiaries a few years later.
