better prepared to cope with the situation, he pointed out.
 There are many angles to the work, he said. Transportation is a significant item, for in case there are wounded here, they would prob- ably have to be taken to hospitals in Waterbury. The drivers should be familiar with all routes to Wa terbury for the main artery of travel might be blocked, he added.
 Most local drivers probably feel they could drive blindfolded to Wa- terbury, they feel so familiar with the route, he said. But the driv- CTS in case of emergency should know all routes well for they might have to drive almost as if they were blindfolded, that is at night without lights in case of attack, Mayor Scully warned. And in the event Waterbury defense workers have to come to Naugatuck, they also should be familiar with the routes whether or not the situation will arrive, your guess is as good as mine, but we must be prepared for 1t in case 1t does"
 If the Naugatuck valley should be the object or subjected to an air raid and the attendant disas- ter in all walks of life, anything we do now will help alleviate 1t, he declared. He congratulated the lo- cal council on Its progress thus far.
 Warden Brophy expressed ap- preciation on behalf of the town for the work being done by the lo- cal defense council and its chair man. It is the duty of every citi- zen in Naugatuck to cooperate in this effort, he said. He added that although we hope we never will have the need of putting into effect these preparations, we should re. member Washington's advice, "ln time of peace, prepare for war;" he said.

Defense Work In
 Valley Is Stressed
Borough Council Has First Full Meeting Many Speak
 CTS Stress Need of Preparation

Naugatuck, Sept. l1-The serious and vitally important work which lies ahead for the Naugatuck de- fense council was explained and stressed at the first meeting of the entire council lest night at the fire house. Speakers included Robert O. Deming, assistant to the state administrator of defense; Warden Leo Brophy, Edward J. Weaving, chief air raid warden here, Mayor Vincent Scully of Waterbury and Clarence E. Jones, chairman of the local council.
 MT. Deming said intelligent prep aration is needed and warned that even thuogh insurance men say chances of actual attack is s per cent, "thiS is Q tremendous risk" as our lives, property, honor and everythin gwe hold dear are in- volved.
 The small premium we must pay for that protection is practically nothing, he said. Hitler uses the weapons of extreme apathy or in- difference, which we find here, or extreme fear, he said. He explained the broad powers of the state de- fense council and said the chair" man of the defense council in each community is second ot none in the community in time of emergency.
 Connecticut Is the state where much of the country's munitions are manufactured and in the event of attack 1t is generally agreed 1t would be one of the first points attacked, with cities such as Bridge port, Hartford, Waterbury, Tor rington, New Haven or Hartford be- ing the points chosen, he added.
 He stressed the value of imagin. ton as a quality for committee members, pointing out if the mem- bers can forsee most possible emer- gencies, they will be better pre- pared to meet anything that may arise.
 He urged that each man do one job and do 1t well. He told the large group which attended that trials of actual problems have been made in several communities in the state and the results have been quite successful and valuable. He urged that after the local commit tees are completely organized and tasks assigned, similar experiment. of an actual condition which might occur in time of attack be made here, with the community being in- formed only what week 1t might oc. cur, and the committee members being notified what day but not what time of day 1t nigh hap. pen.
 He pointed out in invading % na- tions, Hitler has followed the same method, with Germans, disguised as citizens of the invaded nations, seiz- ing vital points, and MT. Deming added: "Why should we expect any, thing different2"
 He stressed the need of int0gya. ton of plans with each sub-com- nittee knowing It's own reSponsibtl- ity. He said every town in the state has Q defense council chair. man and all but 9 communities have organized their councils.
 Mayor Scully Talks
 ~The finest type of public service to which anyone in America can aspire today iS to volunteer and to he active in civilian desense," Mayor Scully of waterbury declared. rSc said we all hope no attack comes but f nothing happens, no harm IS done bv pfeparat'on. If an attack occurs, we will be much

TGI1s CHART SHOWS what one gallon win
 do for you if you're an average driver. in an average car, on an average road. Of course, some of the newer light cars will deliver nearly as much mileage at 3S as they do at 2S; while really heavy car, regardless ofits age, won't give you 20 miles to the gall ion under any conditions. But we're talking about the average. Now for some arithmetic.
 If you roll along at the easy pace of 2S m.p.h., you burn 50 gallons per 1000 miles and it costs you about $s.7s. At 3S m.p.h., you'll use Ss gallons; at 4S m.p.h., 60 gallons; at SS m.p.h., 6o gallons; and at 6S m.p.h., you'll have to pour in 80 gallons to cover that 1000 miles. The cost in the latter case will be about $l4OO. But that's not all; let's figure some more.
