FIRE CHIEF GIVES
A few hints on what, to do In
case of air raids were given last
week by Fire Chief Roy Elliott
of Medford, working in coopera
tion with the Jackson County
Council of Defense.
Chief Elliott attended the Ore
gon fire chiefs' school and con
vention at Bend in September
where he heard Constable Scott
of London's Scotland Yard ex
plain the methods found most
efficient in that city's long ex
perience under aerial bombard
ir.ent. The constable was brought
to the United States to attend
gatherings of fire chiefs for the
purpose of acquainting them
with best practices in fighting
bomb-caused fires.
Chief Elliott quoted the fol
lowing advice as given by Con
stable Scott:
1. Stay home. The safest place
In an air raid is at home.
2. If you are away from home,
get under cover in the nearest
shelter. Avoid crowded places.
Stay off the streets. The enemy
wants you to run into the streets,
create a mob, start a panic.
Don't do It!
3. If incendiary bombs fall,
play a spray from a garden hose
(never splash or stream) of
water on the bomb. Switch to
a stream to put out any fire
started by the bomb. Switch
back to a spray for the bomb.
The bomb will burn for about 13
minutes if left alone, only about
two minutes under a fine water
spray. A jet, splash, stream, or
bucket of water will make it ex
plode. 4. Under raid conditions, keep
a bathtub and buckets full of
water for the use of fire depart
ments in case water mains are
broken.
5. If you have a soda-and-acid
extinguisher (the kind you turn
upside down), use it with your
finger over the nozzle to make
a spray. Don't use the chemical
kind (small cylinders of liquid)
on bombs. It is all right for or
dinary fires.
6. Should gas be used, go at
once to the most "inside" room
in your house (fewest doors and
windows). Pasta paper over
glass. Stuff rags in window
cracks and under doors.
7. Spread one inch of dry sand
over the floor of the ceilings (in
attic). In case an incendiary
bomb comes through the roof
and ceiling the sand will flow
down on the bomb through the
hole, aiding in extinguishing it.
8. But above all, keep cool,
stay home. Choose one member
of the family to be air raid war
den who will remember all the
rules and what to do. Mother
makes the best.
BATTLESHIP LOSS
IN AIR ATTACKS
Washington, Dec 13. UP)
The Polish government notified
the- state department tonight
that as of December 11 a state
of war existed between Poland
and Japan.
SMALL WHEAT CROP
Chicago, Dec. 13. UP) The
United States' first war-time
wheat crop is likely to be the
smallest in several years, unless
there Is a sharp expansion in
acreage seeded in the spring
wheat belt next summer.
Washinqton, Dec. 13.-
The sinking of four dread
naughts Japanese, British and
American in the battle of Pa
cific amid impressive reports of
the effectiveness of aerial bomb
ers aroused congressional de
mands today for a reappraisal
of the warship-versus-airplane
controversy.
Such an investigation was
considered of urgent importance
I in the 1'ght of an administration
bill, introduced yesterday, to
authorize a 30 per cent increase
in the navy's surface fleet.
Chairman Walsh CD., Mass.)
of the senate naval affairs com
mittee, who announced he in
troduced the legislation at the
request of President Roosevelt
and the navy department, said
the degree of vulnerability of
battleships to aerial assault un
doubtedly would have to be
threshed out.
The measure would authorize
an eventual addition of 900,000
tons to the surface fleet, but
the Initial appropriation would
be for about 300,000 tons all
that can be handled under pres
ent conditions. The total author
ization, Walsh said, was suffi
cient for seven or eight 43.000
ton battleships, six or seven
20.000-ton aircraft carriers and
some 27 cruisers, 80 destroyers
and 47 submarines.

RECRUITING SERVICE
The new building, however,
could be apportioned as the
navy saw fit, and most legis
lators believed a substantial
portion of the funds would be
allocated for battleships, to re
place the one sunk and any
damaged in the Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor.
Senator Wiley (R.. Wis.), an
other member of the naval
affairs committee, told reporters
that before any authorization
was granted he and others would
want to know whether the navy
and army favored giving prior
ity to battleships or bombers.
Agreeing that the events of
the last few days had changed
the naval picture, Senator Byrd
(D., Va.) said that as a veteran
advocate of building more bat
tleships, he too was beginning
to wonder if more stress should
not be placed now on construct
ing bombers.
