AIR AND ARMY DEFENSE
 IN ARGENTINA
BY EYERETr A. BAUMAN

UnlEe0 Press Staff Correspondent Buenos Aires, oct. B. UP) Long delayed defense preparations are being rushed by Argentina, follow ing Brazil's declaration of belliger- ency, which brought the .ar to South America and to Argentina's frontiers. Brazil entered the war against Italy and Germany Aug. p. In a series of swift steps, the Argentine War Ministry has laid the groundwork for greatly ex- banded military forces and nation wide civilian defense against air attack. Two bills, introduced in Congress within . forthnight after Brazil's war entry, authorized the president to introduce military training for men of all ages and to lconscript the entire population, re- gardleSS of age, sex, or nationality, for Argentine Air Raid Protection. Immediate induction of 300,O0 reservists inso tho armed forces is provided by the legislation, while 40, 100000 pesos ($10,7O0O0O) will be spent annually for anti-aircraft defense.
 Order First BlackOut
 Meanwhile, military authorities have ordered that Buenos Aires South Americas largest city, un- dergo a trial air alarm and black out for the first time in its history. Routine air drills already have been held at Argentina's naval and mili- tary bases, but the capital whose population density is of one per four square yards-has never heard an air siren.
 Private organizations, carrying on futile agitation for air-de- fense preparation during the past year, had obtained only alf-heart- ed support from municipal authori- ties. Cellars capable for use as shelt- CTS were surveyed.
 Now Belgrano, luxurious suburb and site of the city waterworks, will be put through 8 full-dress anti- air rehearsal when President Ra- mon S. Castillo returns from his trip to Bolivia. Anti-aircraft bat teries now being spotted through out the area, will put up curtain of fire when Argentine army air units stage a mock defense of the waterworks.
 Issue Dim-Out Rules
 Capital citizens are being Syste- l matically enrolled in air-shelter 1 groups and instructed in the art | of blacking-out. Col. Raul Con- zalez, head of the army anti-air defense units, has issued regula- | defense units, has issued regulations calling for a double blackout" of | lights. Lamp visibility must be limit ed to IS feet, while entryways. win- l dows and other sources of light eS- cape also must be thoroughly shield ed.
 Householders with curbs, trees, fences or homes bordering upon | streets are required to paint white | road borders to help blackout driv- ing.
 Phosphorescent traffic signs will | be installed at all intersections.
 The newspaper La Razon," sup porter of President Castillo's for eign policy of prudent neutrality" explained why the new defense steps are necessary despite the governments efforts to remain at peace" :.
 "No matter how great our will | to remain neutral" La Razon pointed out, events of the past decade prove that pacifisrn may be worthless in the face of unforeseen in the international conflict. On.y powerful defense will make this nation respected"
