Mr. and Mrs. E. O. Teague and

Word has been received in

mony took place in St. Phillips'
Catholic church in that city on
es in metropolitan New’ York City
to make an effective blackout. And
the switch operation is but one
little detail of the problem of civil-
ian defense.
Indications • such as these,
backed by the knowledge gained in
warfare more than two decades
ago, has inspired the American Le-
gion to begin an 'educational
course to inform its members what
must be done to prepare this coun-
try for an all-out civilian defense.
National Commander Milo J.
Warner, who led a Legion mission
to England to study civilian de-
fense efforts, reported that the
their civilian defense shortly after
1935, though actual bombing in-
vasion of the British island did
not get under, wayuntil 1939. Even
so, the start was not too early.
Educational Campaign
National headquarters of the Le-
gion, compiling its educational
campaign for civilian defense on
research conducted for more than
a year, is now issuing preliminary
instructions showing exactly what
must be done in any American
community to take care of the
home front in time of war.

Based on Experience
It is based on the Legion’s ex-
perience in practice blackouts held
in connection with the Army, the
War Departments’ studies of the
problem, and information brought
back from England by National
Commander Warner showing how
civilian defense actually operates
in time of war.

More than 10,000 farmers have
attended and taken part in the 25
cotton insect control meetings and
.dusting demonstrations held during
past three seasons in Texas, with
which the East Texas Chamber of
Commerce has cooperated.
The educational phases of the
cotton insect meets were under the
direction of the Texas A. & M. Col-
lege Extension Service. Noon day
barbecue luncheons and programs
were sponsored by local chambers
, of commerce and insecticidal firms.
The dusting machines in operation
were shown with the East Texas
Chamber in charge. Latest meth-
ods of increasing cotton yield
through proper effective control
measures for boll weevil, flea hop-
per, leaf worm, and boll worm were
described and demonstrated.
