CIVIL DEFENCE
BRITISH ORGANISATION CONTINUATION AFTER THE WAR (Rec. 8 p.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 25. Continuation of the Civil Defence organisation after the war was forecast to-day by Mr William Mabane, Joint Parliamentary Secretary of the Ministry of Home Security. “It is clear from the Atlantic Charter that at any rate until the world has reached a far greater degree of political stability than we have known hitherto, those nations that desire peace must be in a position to preserve it. So after the war it does appear to me that we shall certainly not be able to abandon our civil defence organisation, albeit we shall be able to transform it once more into the army, not standing by, but trained and at call—a necessary and proper supplement to the armed forces,” said Mr Mabane.
