SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 28, 1942 Defense Corps Schedules Realistic Bomber Workout Will Douse Imaginary Fire Bombs on Top Of Buildings An air raid workout which will call every department of the citi¬zens' defense corps into action Monday evening has been scheduled by Commander R. C. Glasmann. All services will concentrate in one area, as yet undesignated, upon summons from the corps con¬trol room, the commander said. Air raid wardens will function in their capacity as disaster spot¬ters and directors of relief serv¬ices on the scene of the damage; auxiliary police will stand guard and auxiliary firemen will carry hose lines to the building tops to douse imaginary roof fires set by non-existent incendiary bombs. Streets will be blocked off while utilities and public works crews of the OCD repair "broken" mains for gas and water, mend blasted sewer lines and repair "damage" to overhead power cables. City police and firemen will di¬rect their auxiliary units in the workout, and Red Cross leaders will assume direction of medical assistance and transportation prob¬lems in the test. On Smaller Scale Commander Glasmann said the workout will be on much smaller scale than that attempted two weeks ago when the medical serv¬ices were tested in Liberty park area, and will probably be con¬centrated in a single block. Prin¬cipal purpose of the action test is to give experience to the control room in moving its units to the scene, since most of the crews that will be engaged in the repair and rescue work are either experi¬enced repairmen or highly trained workers in their field. The "alarm" will not be general, and unless persons happen to be in the area selected for the test, it is unlikely they will be aware that the test is being made. Commander Glasmann reminded all services that travel on the workout is to be restricted to a speed of 15 miles per hour, the speed assigned for all travel in a blackout, even for emergency ve¬hicles, such as fire, police, and ambulance cars. Fewer Vehicles A minimum of transportation facilities will be used, in contrast to the medical division's test where approximately 50 cars were placed in service. Each division will use its own vehicles, with only the Red Cross Weber county chapter ambulance being held for emer¬gency transportation purposes. City and county officials and army observers, together with mem¬bers of the state defense council's protection division, will be on hand to check operations and offer cri¬ticism, the commander said. The joint board of city and coun¬ty commissioners has granted per¬mission to install more telephones, hooked to the city-county switch¬board, in the control room to fa¬cilitate the issuance of orders to field units by division leaders seated at the control table before the large chart and map of the county, which covers one wall of the room. The alert will be sounded for the control officers at seven p.m. Monday, with the "red" or raid signal scheduled to flash at seven- thirty p. m. Bell Elimination To assist in reducing confusion in the control room, F. D. Sawyer, the Weber county defense council's communications chieftain, has worked out a system of installing lights on the control room tele¬phones in place of the bells now used. Whether facilities for the changeover are at hand is doubt¬ful, however, and it is likely that Monday's test will be conducted amid the ringing of at least 10 telephones working overtime. JUNE 29, 1942 Nurse Pays Visit During Journey TRIP EAST . . . Lieut. Juanita Redmond of Swansea, S. C., the darling of Bataan nurses and the sweetheart of Major Floyd ("Slugger") Pell of Ogden, en route to Washington, D. C., on official business, was met at the train by Mrs. W. O. Pell of 321 Twentieth, the mother of Major Pell. Major Pell was killed on February 9 when his fighter plane was shot down during the first Jap raid on Port Darwin. JUNE 30, 1942 RED CROSS AIDS MANY MILLIONS WASHINGTON, June 30 (AP)— President Roosevelt submitted to congress today a report of the American Red Cross showing that more than 15,|000,000 persons in Europe, Asia and Africa had re-ceived "effective assistance" through that organization. The report said the value of the foreign war. relief made available to all foreign countries by the American Red Cross as of April 30, 1942, totaled $60,732,194. Of this amount, supplies pur¬chased or committed from govern¬ment funds for the benefit of 12 countries were, valued at $46,254,864. Funds for these supplies were made available under the emergency re¬lief appropriation act of 1941 and the third supplemental national defense act of 1942. "The total loss at sea has been very small," the report disclosed. "Out of $24,092,037 worth of kov- ernment - purchased supplier shipped up to April 30, 1942, only $653,113 worth have been lost at sea. "Except for the requisitioning for military use in Australia of supplies consigned to China and on the high season Dec. 7, 1941, and the presumed loss of a small quan¬tity in Java, there has been no confirmed confiscation of Red Cross supplies and no diversion by authorities other than the Amer¬ican Red Cross of any suppliles from the purpose for which they were intended." Bataan Nurse Sees Mother Of War Hero Lieut. Juanita Redmond of Swan¬sea, S. C., the darling of Bataan nurses and the sweetheart of Ma¬jor Floyd "Slugger" Pell of Ogden, visited with Mrs. W. O. Pell of 321 Twentieth, the mother of Ma¬jor Pell, during a train stop in Ogden Saturday evening. Major Pell was killed on Feb. 9 when his fighter plane was shot down during the first Jap raid on Port Darwin. Nurse Redmond lanced many a gangrened limb in Bataan and at¬tended General John J. Pershing during his near fatal illness sev¬eral years ago. The only possession she brought with her from the Philippines was a tattered letter in which the World war com¬mander praised her for her "ex¬cellent attention." On arrival in Australia her first act was to visit the grave of her sweetheart major. She brought to the U. S. with her his air corps wings which his group commander had saved for her. Miss Redmond is en route to Washington, D. C., but did not state the nature of her business. She left the west coast Friday, accompanied by another nurse w was with her on Bataan. JULY 2, 1942 RED CROSS TO GET OWN FUND Refuses to Participate in Joint Campaign With Units SALT LAKE CITY, July 2 (AP) Because of a necessity for freedom of action in caring for domestic disasters as well as -war needs, the Utah chapters of the American Red Cross will not participate in any joint fund raising campaigns, David O. McKay, chairman of the state advisory committee says, "We are convinced," said Chair¬man McKay, "that the Red Cross can not be considered as a local agency in view of the national and international scope of its work. Neither can it be regarded as a wartime agency alone, as it will serve long after the war. Certainly it should not become merged in special fund raising campaigns which are created only for the war period and will include, as to numbers, only a small proportion of the communities in which there are Red Cross chapters and branches." The Red Cross will hold a com¬bined war fund and roll call cam¬paign next March.
