"Special training and new problems related to the local defense program are to be discussed at the Monday after¬noon session."

Pledged Time Instructors, at a meeting Sunday in the civilian defense headquarters, pledged all their available time to conducting classes, and plans were laid for a new class for preparing instructors to begin the first of the year. The newly created instructors will then relieve the present corps of teachers of a part of their load, Mr. Bramwell said. The classes were organized be¬cause of the large number of re¬quests for training received after reports revealed the city is short of men and women trained in first aid for service in case of emergency.

Bramwell, first aid training director for the Weber chapter of the Red Cross, who said certain contents of that issue are desires for use in first aid classes now being taught. Mr. Bramwell asked that persons having copies of the issue telephone the Red Cross office, 7961. “Every effort made to obtain copies from the publishers has proved futile,” Mr. Bramwell said. “We can use as many copies as we can get, and will appreciate the cooperation of all to get them.”
