,p comedian, Jack earned living on
arranged method of utilizing all
branches of communication on a CO.
ordinated scale would result in even
greater safety factors where lives and
property are concerned.
The feeling is that there should be
set up an organization which would be
trained for future emergencies. just
as National Guard and Naval Reserve
units are trained during peace times.
The F. G. c., under Comdr. Craven's
direction, is initiating the civil phases
of the project and help of Red Cross,
Army, Navy and Coast Guard officials !
is anticipated.
1T is entirely probable that within
the next few months the F. C. c.
will call national conference Of the
relief and military agencies, along
with private groups in Washington to
draft basic plan whereby all modes
of communication might be brought
into play in any emergency.
The project may involve such steps
as location of emergency short-wave
equipment at various vantage points
SO it could be brought into use in case
of flood, earthquake or some other
emergency, just as the Forest Service
maintains fre-fghting apparatus at
strategic locations in heavily wooded
areas. Moreover, such a plan might !
embrace issuance of licenses by the
F. C. c. to relief groups permitting
automatic starting Of operations in
time Of flood, fire, earthquake, hurri-
cane. or some such other visitation
At the projected general conference
broad principles of communications
relief work probably will be laid down.
