Following is the key to the accom-.
panying map which gives the loca-
ton of Sc mass meetings scheduled
for tomorrow at 8 pm. to nominate
air raid wardens for the variou;
communities and a permanent Ex-
ecutive Committee on Civilian De.
fense.
Col. Lemuel L. Bolles, executive
direction Of civilian defense, stressed
the fact that every citizen is urged
to attend mass meeting, whether
he is a member of a citizens asso-
citation or not
The colonel warned against apathy
and compared the warden establish
ment to insurance, remarking you
don't take out insurance thinking
you are going to die tomorrow"
While some meetings have planned
elaborate programs, the job each
meeting has been asked to do is
simple:
l. Name candidates for a deputy
warden and three assistant deputy
Wardens in each area. Each group
may nominate more to give the
Commissioners a choice in making
appointments, but this is the de-
sired minimum.
Name Permanent Committee.
2. Name permanent Executive
Committee to work with the war
dens when appointed. The size OF
this committee is up to each meet
ing, but three to five members has
been suggested as desirable by civil
ian defense headquarters here.
Following is the map KEY. The
number shown is the number on

PARENTS COOPERATION
REQUESTED TO END b.,
e. CYCLE MENACE

This week a boy riding bicycle
without lights was struck by a car.
The operator of the automobile
cannot be charged with fault be-
cause the boy did not properly
comply with the city ordinance re-
quiring that his bicycle be equip
ped with lights. id
The danger to the boys riding
bicycles without lights will be
greater during the fall and winter
because of the shorter days The
boys themselves cannot properly
be blamed for operating their BIZ
cycles but the parents should not
permit their operation unless they
are properly equipped. q
It is unfair to both the boy and
the mOtorist to permit bicycles to
be operated without proper equip
ment. Accidents viii inevitably
follow If the boys persist in using
bicycles improperly lighted.
The city officials have request
ed the cooperation of the parents.
A few cents spent in property
equipping your boys bicycle may
save him from a serious injury for
which no recovery could be had
from q motorist who might acct
dentally and without fault run
MIN down. ~

 Washington, April 15.-When Pres ident Roosevelt let Jugoslavia know that she could expect American aid in the way of war material, the announcement was highly welcome music to the ears of the 800,000 Jugoslavs who dwell in the United States.
 The Southern Slavs have played a full role, not only in the United States of today, but fairly far back in American history.
 The present Jugoslav population of America Is broken down as fol- lows: Greats, 100000; Serbs, 180 200; Slovenes, 220,000. Some came b..ore the World War, a great number came during that war and the years that immediately succeeded 1t, and fewer came after Jugoslavia got on its feet, 50 to speak.
 The main centers of Jugoslav population are Pennsylvania (par- ticularly Pittsburgh), Ohio (particu- larly Cleveland, Michigan (particu- larly Detroit and Flint, and Cali forria. Tn the east the Jugoslavs are employed mainly in the coal mines, the steel mills and factories. Tn California they are farmers, or chard owners and fishermen. U. s. 300 YEARS AGO
 Cleveland is the biggest Slovene city in the world outside of Ljubl- jana, capital of the Slovene section of Jugoslavia itself. They both have about the same Slovene population --60,000
 The Slovenes in Cleveland support two daily papers published in their language and @ number of week. lies and monthly magazines.
 It is the general belief that Jugo- slavs began coming to this country within the past few decades. The fact is that the first officially known
