AIR RAID DANGERS
MASS INSTRUCTION PLANS IN BRITAIN ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS ENJOINED. ALL TO TAKE THEIR PART IN CIVIL DEFENCE. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON, June 7. The Minister of Home Security. Sir John Anderson, announced that Britain would become a huge class-room for mass instruction in air-raid precautions. Local authorities throughout the country had taken over halls and arranged meetings where the public could learn how to deal with faulty gas masks and protect themselves, their homes and families from incendiary bombs and gas. The public must attend these meetings. Thousands of people throughout the country had not taken their place in civil defence, and the time had arrived when they must. Civil defence personnel could then be released for other work of national importance.
