This year,' Rritain is spending
$1,715,000,000 on rearmament,
building anti-aircraft guns
(above) and fixing out defense
troops with oilskin suits (right)
as protection against disastrous
mustard gas. Though the nation
is outwardly calm, A.R.P. has
perfected an amazing organiza
tion of 600,000 community
“wardens'” who will have charge
of A.R.P. fire brigades, first aid
units, evacuation and contamina
tion squads. Moneyed classes are
building underground bomb
proof shelters where they will re
tire to live in comparative com
fort during raids. Rut poorer
classes cannot afford this luxury,
indeed cannot even afford gas
masks, thereby creating a de
fense problem of major impor
tance.
