"It has been proved by exper ience that the civilian popula tion must tie trained in all phases of its own protection or it will pay a horrible penalty in the destruction of life and pro perty. Common Sense "That we should prepare to meet this onslaught is but prac ticing common sense. Explosive or incendiary bombs have no re spect for young or old, political or religious identities. The rank and file of civilians saved Eng land. We can do no less than profit by their experience by training and self-discipline.
