New 'Secret|| NEW ZEALANDERS LEARN TO THROW BOMBS NORWAY'S

Weapon' Is All Nonsence

HITLER is not only going to curdle our blood, he is going to. paralyse our nervous systems. It is the latest secret weapon.

The Spanish newspaper "Infor→ maciones, a paper which was subs!- dised by Germany In the last war, has been explaining how it is to be done,

We are to be attacked by "certain cffluvia" produced by radio, which "In combination with electro-mugne- the powers attack the nervous system In a relentless and nuave manner."

This, os the context revenis, is not intended as a description of Lord Haw-How. It is a plere of Hitler

science.

"The phenomena of paralisation of psychle and vegetable ife in well known in all biological laboratories," says the Spanish nerve curdler.

So after the radio "effluvia” has finished with him, “the individual goca on living unconsciously and, withart will, teses his intelligence."

New Zealand troops stationed in Egypt have been training since early in the war. Here a few of them are learning to throw bombs.
