Civil defense training urged as blackout plans loom in valley
Commander G H Ellis calls for full civilian defense training over three weeks as army blackout plans may take effect by July. St Albans district lags with only about a third enrolled. A gas defense class started at Central school with more sessions possible if interest grows. Other events include Red Cross nutrition class, canteen course, and numerous local club meetings. A house to house canvass is planned by the Jefferson district war bond committee this week.
