The scheme includes the provision of gas masks, arid of a complete gas suit for everybody called on to work out of doors, also the storage of neutralising chemicals at the hospitals, and schools and the first aid stations. The population will be warned through observation posts, which will telephone every post office and simultaneously will also broadcast a wirel.ess warning. Other warnings will consist of the ringing of the church bells, sounding of the factory hooters and lire alarms and locomotive whistles. The fire brigade would also envelop the threatened areas with an artificial 'fog.
