WASHINGTON, May 6-Behind the scenes a master plan is being completed here to train millions of minute men to protect the civil ian population-if war should come to the United States.
 There is no prediction here that war will come. But Army men say it would be official negligence. in these days of total warfare, not to train civilians to protect them selves.
 This master plan includes h e programs for housing and adequate food about which you have heard much already. But the nub of the plan lies in giving civilians re- hearsals in fighting fires, dealing with incendiary bombs, protecting water supplies, augmenting commu- nication lines, spotting invading air fleets-the defense techniques the British had to learn when war was upon them.
 Many government specialists have cooperated TOT months on these plans Army and Navy men chemists, radio men conservation ists, communications experts and doctors. They have been assisted by dozens of trained civilians.
 NeighbOrhOOd Affair
 Training will be given to police and fire fighters. But the plan also calls for you and your neighbor and the man two-doors-down to register for volunteer training and rehearsalS.

Two sets of such people are all ready getting their names on the dotted line First are the volun- teer lair spotters" the Army is calling Second, the amateur ra- dio operators.
 The Army wants 100000 volun- teer "air spotters" signed up by September l. These spotters will be trained to identify military planes and to phone warning to air fields.
 Two r-sctice sessions have been held. Chs in New England, one around New York City. This is how the rehearsals work. Suppose minute-man farmer on Martha s Vineyard sees enemy" craft. He runs to the nearest phone, shouts army flash" to the operator. She puts his call through to Mitchell Field, Long Island, so he can say, "Martha's Vineyard, six enemy two-engine bombers flying south. Overhead at 9:52 a.m., altitude about 10000 feet
 In region prepared for a re- hearsal there will be many spot ters. The calls will pile into the regional air command, Mitchell Field. Each. call will help the air command plot the flight on a map that will tell the officers where to send interceptor planes
 The Army says volunteers can write to Brig. Gen. J. c. McDon- nell, Mitchell Field, Long Island; Brig. Gen. c. H. Wash, Fort George Wright, Washington; Brig Gen. w. H. Frank, Tampa, Flor ida; or to Brig. Gen. M. F. Har- mon, Riverside, Gal.

British Foreign Secretary Gives Review of War
 Before Commons

LONDON, May 6.-British For eign Secretary Anthony Eden today told the members of the House of Commons that the sooner war materials reach the battlefields in Africa and Europe the sooner the war will end.
 Eden expressed faith that Turkey will stand by Great Britain in the present crisis and told the Arab peoples, including the Iraquis, to be- ware of an Axis victory.
 During Eden's review, which he opened with a statement by the government that there is now time for full dress debate on the con- duct of the war, heckling members of the House of Commons many times interrupted the Foreign Sec retary, especially in reference to United States aid with "let us do our bit ourselves" Once Eden promptly replied that he is "presupposing the maximum efforts ourselves and the United States"

 The bombers will be far greater than the present bombers, airmen claim.

 British Help
EmphdtiedIIy Strong Lei. fer on Subject Is Made
 Public in New York

NEW YORK, May 6.-John D Rockefeller, Jr., has come out strong for aid to Great Britain. On April 25, MT. Rockefeller sent a letter to Arthur Hays Sulzberger of this city, stating his viewpoints explicitly and in straight forward manner that leaves no doubt as tc his stand.
 The letter, released today, is as follows:
 Dear MT. Sulzberger:
 You and I have had several talks during recent months regarding the relation of the Americas to the European war. There are certain definite conclusions which I have now reached. May state them briefly.
 Let me say at the outset that like most people, I hate war. All my life have hated it. I have al- ways preferred the ways of peace and have followed them whenever possible. But when all peaceful methods have failed and the issue was worth standing for at any price even if it meant fight, I have never hesitated to see it through on that basis.
 That is my position regarding the present conflict. It is my firm conviction, arrived at in anguish of spirit, that the people of the United States and of all the Amer icas should see this conflict through; that we should stand by the British
The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-05-06

WASHINGTON-To date, 40 bil- lion dollars has been appropriated by Congress for defense and aid to Britain, and everywhere the ques- tion is being asked, what is the sta- tus of this colossal armament pro- gram? Are the planes, the tanks, the guns, the ships, the munitions coming out of the factories in the quantities the critical world situa- ton demands?
 The answer to this biggest do- mestic question-mark varies from different authoritative sources.
 From President Roosevelt, Cabinet members, and OPM Director Gen. eral Knudsen have come optimistic assurances. John Biggers, conscient- ious OMP Production chief, recently told a Senate committee, We are within 100 days of quantity output of defense production"
 But from others equally informed have come less cheerful opinions. Bernard Baruch, tall, outspoken head of the World War Industries Board, has bluntly told Roosevelt and Defense chiefs that the progress of the defense program is too slow and too lax.
 Potent New Deal executives have added the complaint that industry generally is still too intent on "busi- ness as usual" They also contend that despite the size of the defense program, it is still far short of real security for the nation and should immediately be greatly expanded
 Little has been said publicly, but this is very live subject in inner circles and has been discussed more than ever in recent weeks. Now it
