T COOPERATION EXCELLENT N Last night's practice Alert! showed excellent cooperation .on| the behalf of the people of Ju-| neau -and vicinity in complying | with the dimout regulations, ac-| cording to. the Juneau Civilian De- | fense Council. While a few yesi-| dences and businesses are showing too much light, as a whole the dim-out is very effective and prac«’ tically all over-head glare has been eliminated. Few violations of the Alert were reported; but, some misunderstand- | ing still exists, concerning the pur- pose of practice Alerts, Director R. E. Robertson said today. They are essentially to teach the public to promptly seek safety should an ac- tual raid occur. Therefore, neither pedestrian or automobile traffic is permitted during them. But, should an actual Alert occur, which would ! have no advance notice, the public would be given time, as previously stated in the Empire, to go to their homes and to close their businesses, unless no time intervened between the actual Alert and the actual | raid. About 150 members of the first Aid, chaplain, auxiliary police, and air raid warden corps reported in! last evening.
