§ 24. Mr. Hannahasked the Home Secretary whether he will permit workers in factories to help with ordinary air-raid precautions, especially in the Black 1382 Country, where little other help is available, always having in mind the fact that the workers may be expected to return to their tasks more cheerfully if they have first-hand news from their mates as to how their families have fared in an air raid?
§ Sir J. AndersonI appreciate the value from all points of view of active co-operation between the trained A.R.P. personnel of factories and those of local authorities. In recent months regional commissioners have given their close attention to arrangements for ensuring such co-operation, particularly where especially heavy air raids occur in densely populated localities.
