GAS-MASK ISSUE
Forty Thousand For E.P.S. In Wellington Area
An allocation of 40,000 civilian-type respirators has been made for E.P.S. personnel in the Wellington area, and their issue will begin shortly, it is stated, though none will be made available at present to the general public. Instructors responsible for the distribution and fitting of the masks will undertake a special course at the gas training school in Wellington. Though a fairly large stock of respirators'is to hand locally, and more are lining received, the number will'be insufficient for distribution to the general public. After E.P.S. personnel have been equipped, the remainder of the respirators will be held in store for distribution if and when the need arises.
