Americans Should Learn
What to Do, Where to Go
If Airblitz Should Come
By Don Whitehead and Frank I. Waller
New York, June 13 Special Newi Serviced Many strange
and fearsome and important lessons are in store for Ameri
cans from Europe's unnatural sky-war on helpless human
beings.
The U. S. Office of Civilian
Defense, directed by Mayor F.
H. La Guardia of New York,
will teach them. They will be
gin soon. They are dedicated to
protection of the non-combat
ant.
War may never come, but the
OCD insists that potential vic
tims here know beforehand,
and be fortified thereby, for
the things it may be too late
to learn if some day warplanes
roar to our shores.
They include:
"The taller the building the
afer its occupants; bomb dam
age Is comparatively negligible
to steel and concrete structures.
"Buildings supported by walls
alone readily collapse.
"Massed residences made of
wood cannot be protected.
"Bomb-proofed private gar
ages and public buildings are
the safest air raid shelters.
"Huge municipal above
ground shelters are not feas
ible. "Subway protection is ques
tionable. "Modern building basements
are relatively safe.
"Private home and small
apartment sub-cellars are risky.
"Death and injury is inescap
able for many.
"Great fires cannot be pre
vented, but may be controlled.
"Hunger privation, disease
and mental and nervous dis
orders are constant problems.
Gas Threat Known
"And the enemy will use
poison gas whenever it no
longer fears retaliation."
All this the British know.
They have told officials here.
The next step is to make the
people understand, and win
their help in a national effort
to save their lives in the event
of war.
OCD believes Europe's air
blitz would have been far less
effective if weaker neighbors
had been informed and armed
to resist, as their nation now'
has a chance to be.
Officials will concentrate first
on protection of buildings hous
ing 100 or more persons
whether they be apartments,
hotels, theatres, office buildings,
factories, warehouses, stores.
shops and all manner of prop
erties. Lesser units and the in
dividual household, too. will re
ceive safety instructions and
escape facilities.
The big task is to handle
mankind marked for mass mur
der in the great concentrated
centers and on crowded streets.
Fifth columnists spotted these
first for the luftwaffe in 17 van
quished European countries,
with devastating effect where
defense mechanism faltered and
hysteria took its toll.
In LaGuardia's plans wardens
for each strategic city will des
ignate "safety" areas, namely
those in which buildings offer
air-raid shelter.
The superintendent or man
ager will have charge of his
building's defense plan, the ten
ant defense groups, first-aid and
rescue supplies and be respon
sible for sounding the alarm.
He will be the "control direc
tor." Classes Planned
Key men will conduct defense
classes, regulate the blackouts
and enforce rules for personal
behavior of their people while
bombs are falling.
The service squads will con
struct and maintain shelters, co
operate with police and fire
men, assist mobile first-aid and
rescue squads, safeguard water
and gas lines, roofs, sanitation,
boiler rooms and steam pipes,
ventilation, elevators, refricera-
tion, auxiliary power plants and
the thin beams of permissible
indoor lightning.
An oddity of air attack Is
that only one bomb in a mil
lion strikes center atop a sky
scraper. Americans have shud
dered in apprehension of thou
sands of persons toppling to
death from great heights if
these buildings were hit. Bombs
more likely strike a glancing
blow and rip out sections of
sidewall without serious dam
age, or hit the street and spat
ter the first six floors with
steel splinters.
The central structure stands
and the basement are safe from
collapse of superstructure. Oc
cupants are more or less secure.
