WHAT TO DO IN
GAS ATTACK IS
RECITED -BY OCD
Seattle Spl.) Adequate pro-1
tection against gai atuckf does!
not require the equipping of!
the entire civilian population
with gas masks, nor is there
any Immediate contemplation of
auch a program according to a
statement today by Stanly W.
Donogh, director of the north
west sector of the Office of
Civilian Defense.
"There seems to be consider
able confusion on the part of
h nubile concerning gas at
tacks and need for gas masks'
aid Donough. "It Is true that
we have received large num
ber of masks and we are hoping
to receive additional supplies.
These are being allocated to the
most effective places for train
ing and protective purposes,
be said.
Donogh states that contrary
to popular belief gas does not
spread over wide areas but is
concentrated in limited districts
and hanes close to the ground
It Is comparatively easy for the
public in affected areas to avoia
dancer by leaving the area or
"by going to the upper story of
their home or a aowmown
building.
Instructions for protection
against gas were outlined by
Mr. Donosh as follows:
1. Self aid is the best aid for
orevention of injuries due to
war sases. War gases arc uau
ally not dangerous if you take
steDS immediately to remove
them from the eyes and skin
Effective means to accomplish
this should be In the kitchen
and bathroom of every home.
Always keep on stock a supply
of laundry soap and baking
oda.
2. If you are inside build
ing, remain there and go up
stairs, for war gases cling to
the ground. Do not leave your
home unless it is absolutely
necessary. If you are outside
and -not able to get indoors im
mediately, walk don't run to
get out of the gas area. Avoid
puddles of liquid agent and
basements, valleys and other low
places. .
3. If you have been exposed to
a war gas a. Breathe through
cloths wet with baking soda
solution, b. If you are outside
of a building, first remove your
outer clothing and leave it out
side before entering, c. Wash
your hands and then your face
with laundry soap and water,
d. Wash your eyes at once with
a large amount of a solution
of baking soda: one teaspoonful
of baking soda in a glass of
water, e. Take a bath using
plenty of laundry soap. f. Wash
your eyes again with baking
soda solution. Repeat.
4. If splashes of liquid gas
have gotten on you a. Blot up
as much liquid as you can
and be careful not spread it.
b. Daub the contaminated area
with cloths wet with Clorox or
other similar chlorine solution.
c. Repeat steps b, c and 4 in
S above.
9. Remain calm. Lie down
and cover yourself with a blan
ket. Medical aid is on the way.
There is no Immediate serious
danger from exposure to any
known war gas.

"You br it does I As a retailer, I'm the link, you might say,
between manufacturer and consumer. And what affects each of
them under these wartime conditions is mighty important to me."
1 "Tak Mrs. Consumer. She and her family have to plan their
shopping more carefully tlian ever these days. They have to
know in advance how and where they can male their dollars
go furthest, hi order to find out, they read ntuspaptr ads."
" """"
3 "It's plain to see what this means to manufacturers. They
know the best help they can give me In moving their goods off
my shelves is ntvspaprr advertising here in this community.
And today this is stronger, faster-acting support than ever."
O "Why? Well, they've always turned to newspapers for news
. . . and that means buying neu s In the ads, too. Today, with all
this big war news popping, more people than ever are reading
newspapers . . . and paving even closer attention to the ads."
A "Then, too, manufacturers these days often have to change their
' sales or distribution plans overnight, and newspapers are the
only place where they can keep their advertising in step with
these sudden changes, and keep customers coming in here."
This retailer It right! Wartime conditions ere changing the making and telling and buying
of goods. And the service of newspaper advertising, to manufacturer, dealer, and con
tumer, ii greater than ever before. Today, more than ever, manufacturer produce more
sales for their retailers . . . and themselves , . . when they advertise in local newspapers.
