FIRE-WATCHERS IN ENGLAND.— The Minister of Pensions (Sir Walter Womersley) stated in the House oi Commons that arrangements were being made for all fire-watchers, whether paid or unpaid, or with whole or parttime duties, to be enrolled in an appropriate civil defence organization under the Personal Injuries (Civilians) Scheme. Persons so enrolled would be civil defence volunteers, and would therefore be eligible for consideration for compensation in respect of injuries involved. (Rugby).
