Defence League schemes covert militia volunteers
The letter outlines forming special constables to guard vulnerable sites such as reservoirs wharves tunnels bridges and oil facilities with volunteers over 45 joining a league. Enrolment is nonbinding with option to decline and aims to mobilize early. Women’s organisation is separate with a voluntary register planned by South Australia authorities. Finances rely on small donations or per capita levies up to 2d per head, no central levy yet.
