AIR RAID SHELTERS
STEPS TAKEN TO IMPROVE REQUEST TO THE PUBLIC (United press Asn.—Elec. Tel. Copyrlglit) (Received Sept. 20, 1 p.m.) LONDON, Sept. 19 The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry ol Home Security, announcing in a broadcast speech that active steps are being taken to improve the air raid shelter facilities in London, both in regard to amenities in the existing shelters and for extending the provision of public shelters, where the occupants can gain a satisfactory rest, said: “The enemy wants to make casualties of us all. Unfortunately, he must make casualties of some of us and we all sympathise with those who have suffered already and admire the fortitude with which the sufferings are being borne. “But if each of us, by individual efforts in studying the use of a shelter, can deprive the enemy of one casualty, then we too, like the soldiers in the line, shall have played an active part.”
