If it’s possible to Plane from Halifax to Eng- it’s possible for a plane to this direction, and in a very! hours, T will concede that there is no! imminent danger of long, sustain- €d and repeated air attacks such as England has experienced, But should we enter into a state of war, there is not only a possibil- ity but a likelihood of short, sud- den surprise attacks, particularly on our cogstal cities and indus- trial centers, Purpose Is Panic Such attacks, while not causing} great damage to life, would tend! to confuse’ the orderly prosecution | of the War. ‘That would be their purpose! "Unless people are taught, what to’ bxpect ‘and what to do} about it, if ten planes, or even} one, were to. come over here, it) would immediately create panic, ; a demand for air-raid shelters, | for more anti-aircraft guns, and; for the use of all our forces, par- | ticularly the air force, to protect | the civil population. The crea-) tion of such a demand would @ivert our industries from the! ylanned production of offensive war weapons. i The technique of war has changed. All customs and rules) and laws heretofore known no} longer hold good. Today, there is} no such thing as a first line trench. War is no longer local- ized. Civilian populations, non- combatants, no longer enjoy the; I comparative safety of other wars.| their daughter, Helen Mary, to Any city or an entire country is exposed to the danger of enemy fire. New weapons of war and new means of transportation have orought the civilians of a country into the first line trench along with the army and navy. To meet this new technique of waging war, we must acquire a new technique of defense. A new branch of defense must be built up—Civilian Defense, For this purpose, the President, pursuant to the authority given him by Congress, has established the Of-| fice of Civilian Defense. The} purpose of that Office is to pre- pare for the training of the civil-; ian population, a training just as/ essential as that of our armed) forces. } Big Job For All You and I, every single one of us, are officers in this new army which we are now recruiting, and we have a big job to do. A primary part of that job is, of course, the organizing of per- sonnel, volunteer forces which} will be trained as air raid protec- tion wardens; fire fighters, medi-/ cal Uiits, ‘ind ‘units for relief | work, thé caré’6f children and for | canteen work. 5 But apart from’ these’ specific k tasks, there is a larger and all-;, embracing’ task whith’ must be} tackled in every city, town and village throughout the. country. | We must organize a nation-wide) campaign of eduéation to avoid panic: Such a campaign must be} item No 1 in the activities of any state or local defense council, or any department of the State or the city or the community. Every effort must be used,| every agency utilized to warn the; people against rumors, gossip and false reports. They must be! taught to rely for information as to their safety or the possibility of danger only upon their own! state or local officials.
