BLACKOUTS-Light
In these trying times there may be a blackout
called anytime so be prepared by having at least
two rooms prepared so you could have light in
them without it being visible from the outside.
These rooms should be the kitchen and bathroom.
If need be, you could live in these two rooms.
We are not a nation of people who can or need
to live in the dark. We should try to live a nor
mal life as nearly as we can—doing our part in
the civilian defense of our country, The Best
Country in the world!

MEET YOUR AIR RAID WARDEN!
Your Air Raid Warden brings you this leaflet so you may
know what he or she can do to help you protect yourself in case
of air raids.
Your Warden is your friend. Welcome him—get to know him.
He has some advice for you on which your life may depend!
Do these things when the Air Raid Warden calls:
1. Have him meet every member of your family.
2. Tell him where you are to be found when you are away
from home—where you work.
3. Tell him about any member of the household who is ill or
handicapped. Tell him about all small children.
4. Show him the room you intend to use as a refuge room,
ask his suggestions for fitting it up. Follow them—he
knows!
5. Ask him what are the official air raid warning signals,
the official “all clear,” for your community.
6. Show him your attic or garret, ask his suggestions for
protecting it against incendiary bombs. Also garages or
outbuildings.
7. Show him where gas and electric shut-off switches are.
in all buildings.
8. Ask him to point out good shelter in the neighborhood,
should you be caught outdoors in a raid sometime.
9. Answer his questions—trust him; he is a sworn public
official, and must know in order to protect you.
10. Carry out his suggestions for storing emergency water,
sand, etc., cheerfully and promptly.
11. Ask him how you can help, where you should go to vol
unteer your services. Calm, strong, able people are needed
for volunteer service. Do your part.
♦
♦
♦
Remember what your Air Raid Warden’s name is, what he
looks like, where he is to be found. He is your best friend in an
emergency. He can protect you and help you to do your share
in defeating the Japs, Nazis, or any other enemy!
F. H. LA GUARDIA
U. S. Director of Civilian Defense
Should an air raid come to your community, you can do your
part while protecting yourself. Remember these six simple rules:
1. Keep calm and cool.
2. Stay home.
3. Put out lights.
4. Lie down.
5. Stay away from windows.
6. Don’t telephone.
Don’t run—walk. Don’t scream—be quiet. Don’t crowd into
public places. If the raid starts when you are away from home,
lie down under shelter. Keep your mouth open by rolling your
handkerchief and putting it between your teeth. Put your hands
over your ears. Protect the back of your head. Don’t look up.
In the house, go into your refuge room and close the door.
Make yourself comfortable. Relax. If bombs fall near you, lie
down. A good place is under a table with sturdy legs, or a couch
turned upside down.
Keep away from yvindows. Don’t look out. Put out all lights
you cannot closely screen, so no light reaches the street—the
light that’s out or covered tight will never guide a Jap!
Revised instructions: Make no attempt to shut off the main
gas valve. Simply turn off the stove burners that are lit, not
the pilot light. If the house is badly damaged, the main gas valve
should be shut off. Once the main valve is turned off, for any
reason, do not turn it on again yourself. Call for a trained man.
Your local gas company is working out further detailed direc-,
tions with your local defense council. Watch for these instruc
tions, then follow them.
If an incendiary hits your house, go put it out with a spray
(never a stream, jet, or splash) of water. It will burn out rapidly
under a fine water spray—a splash or stream makes it scatter
molten metal. When it is out, go back to shelter.
The chance your home will be hit is very small. Keep cool.
Stay off the streets. Again we say—keep cool!
Appoint one member of the family for your home warden to
remember all rules. Mother makes the best!
Stay quiet indoors or under shelter till the “all clear” sounds.
Don’t believe wild rumors. Don’t crowd. Don’t scream. Don’t
telephone. Don’t start disorder or panic. Do what the Air Raid
Warden tells you to do. Be strong, be calm, be orderly. Lick the
aggressors—everyone can help. Do you.r share!
