U. S. Needs Civil Defense
JOINING CIVIL DEFENSE
CAN MEAN YOUR SURVIVAL
<T.h\s Jf the eighth of a series of articles on civil defense, based on the booklet "This Is
Ctvil Defense (repared by the Federal Civil Defense Administration. It may be obtained
f£mtencentsPFintendent °f Documents’ Government Printing Office. Washington, D. C.,
By MILLARD CALDWELL
Federal Civil Defense Administrator
The most important reason for anyone to volun-
W'fffl teer for Civil Defense work now is that his or her
rWj life may depend on it. From that point you can add
more names to the list which may be dependent on
you in some hour of crisis: your own family, your relatives,
your neighbors, and other friends in your community.
The protection of your own*-
home, industrial property and war
plants, public buildings, the place
where you earn a living, your
municipal facilities, your transpor-
tation system, farm lands, cattle,
forests, harbors—everything which
has to do with your life today,
multiply the reasons why you
should volunteer for civil defense
work NOW.
Every good American will
want to volunteer for civil de-
fense. He knows it is his duty
to do so, for there is no other
way to recruit the millions of
workers who will be needed to
defeat an enemy on the home
front. If we are attacked—and
remember that we can be attack-
ed—the hard, terrible task of
getting our cities and industries
back on their feet will fall main-
ly on civil defense volunteers. It
is not a job for those who can’t
face facts or aren’t willing to
work. It is a job for real
Americans with courage.
No one can do the civil defense
job but the American people them-
selves. The Armed Forces have
their own job to do. There are not
enough people in Federal, State,
or local government agencies to
do the job for you. It is one of
those things you will have to do
yourself. And you will have to be
prepared for any emergency. There
will be no time to take a civil de-
fense training course, or read
booklets, when the bombs fall. All
that must be done before if you
want to better your chance for
survival.
Service Means Survival
One local civil defense organiza- and decide where you fit in.
tion has adopted the slogan “Ser-
vice Means Survival.” It is a good
slogan to remember. It sums up
the meaning of civil defense. An
efficient, tough, determined civil
defense program can mean survival
for the American people.
It’s easy to find out where to
volunteer for civil defense work,
and the services you are qualified
to perform. Visit or telephone
your local civil defense head-
quarters, or watch for announce-
ments from your local civil de-
fense director. Your newspapers,
radio or television stations will
give you information.
Your Red Cross chapter is ready
to train you in first aid right now.
This training is required of all
civil defense volunteers. If you
are not able to volunteer,' you
should take the latest Red Cross
first aid course anyway. It is wise
for you to know first aid no matter
what may happen.
Red Cross Courses
The Red Cross gives courses in
home nursing and nurses’ aide
also. It is wise to have some
knowledge of these courses too.
Then you might be able to save a
life in your family some day, war
or no war.
You can help by being a Red
Cross blood donor. Thousands of
pints of blood would be needed
after an enemy attack.
There are ten major volunteer
services ih your civil defense. All
are vital and will be discussed in
the next three articles. Read them

Not Prepared
An advertising salesman
boarded the Chiet and took a
roomette. He carried with
him only a small grip, and
the porter inquired of his -
other luggage.
“I have none,” said the
man.
“Why. 11 thought 'Tnu were!
a salesman,” said the por-
ter.
“That’s right, I am. But I
don’t need a lot of luggage;
I sell brains.”
The porter scratched his
head and finally said, “Well,
you are the first traveling
salesman that ever rode this
train without samples.”

A Vote For The
Water, Sewer
and Street
Bond Issue
Is a Vote For a
Better and Healthier
Honey Grove
A- r •
Below we are pointing out some reasons why
we believe the voting of Bonds for Water, Sewer
and Street Improvements is needed for growth
and development of Honey Grove.
Your City Commission called the election fol-
lowing a meeting with Sanitary Engineers of the
Texas Public Health Service, requesting the City
( ' 3
of Honey Grove to bring its Sewer System to
within the minimum Health standards required
by law. And wanting our town and community
/ ' y»1
toi improve we have called this election for
Tuesday, Oct. 30,1951
Eight Reasons Why
Your Vote Should Be
YES:
it.,
1. Additional extension of Water and Sewer
lines not now served.
2. Additional Water supply for industry growth.
3. Additional water supply for fire protection.
4. Decrease in your Fire Insurance rate after in-
stallation of improvements.
5. Sewer system to comply with State Health De-
partment laws.
6. No increase in water and sewer rates.
7. No increase in Property Tax.
8. Sewer and Water Bonds will be paid solely
from revenues of Water and Sewer System.

City Commissioners
