SECRET PLANS
CIVILIAN ARMY FOR EUROPE. TO FOLLOW ALLIED INVASION. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, February 16. Secret plans for a civilian army to follow the Allied invasion of Europe have been worked out, says the “Daily Mail.” The War Office, the Home Office and police chiefs have produced a scheme designed to promote smooth and. efficient control of reoccupied territories, including provision of essential services like gas, electricity, water and railways and also emergency feeding and housing for civilians. For the maintenance of order and traffic control, special police may take over civil administration in the captured areas. Civil defence personnel, firemen and nurses are likely closely to follow the invaders for duty in harbours and base towns, which will certainly suffer bombing.
