But its actual operations will be

Here is how the home defense
program would operate:
The OCD will operate on a de-
centralized basis almost entirely
through existing state and local
defense councils, which have al
ready been established in IS states
and me District Of Columbia.
The general plan is To enlist
every available civilian in some
form OF defense cooperation and
training, and to give as many
existing organizations as possible
some connection or responsibility
for the defense program.
No immediate connection 10
planned between the various civil
liam defense bodies and the state
