Air Raid
Precautions
Editor's Note: This is second of a
series of lessons in air raid precautions
prepared under the direction of tha
Marion County Civilian Defense coun
cil and its ARP organization to ac
quaint civilians with activities under
taken for their protection and with
means they mar use to aid. Civilian
defense authorities have suggested that
this series, appearing daily in The
Statesman be clipped and kept for ref
erence. DUTIES OF AIR BATH
WARDENS
The ARP emergency bulletin
lists 29 separate duties ' and re
sponsibilities of air raid wardens.
The public is already well famil
iar with the first of these? Circu
late and encourage, assist with
and insist upon compliance with
blackout regulations by everyone
in the block.
Every block warden In Salem
and Marlon county has made or
soon will make a survey of Jiis
area to know details of all
buildings from loading chutes to
fire escapes; to know location
of fire plugs, water line valves,
phones, electric switches, gas
shutoffs, manholes to conduit
lines and sewers and fire haz
ards of all kinds.
He must provide extra watchers
where necessary to detect the lo
cation of fallen bombs that might
be overlooked by others.
The warden must have knowl
edge of bombs of all kinds and all
that they imply; he must have
knowledge of the roping off and
protection of gassed areas until
decontaminated by the regular
squads. He must be prepared to
determine cases requiring hospit
alization or lesser treatment in the
event of attack.
Direction and assistance of
rescue squads and firefighters,
together with advice on the beat
lines of approach, nearest water
lines connections, danger points,
lives endangered and other vital
information are part of the
block warden's duties.
It is his business and, by the
way, each block air raid warden
has one duly constituted assistant
to aid him in time of stress to
record and report raids, damage,
loss of life and the morale of per
sons in his block.
No need to list all the 29 points
