EMERGENCY MEDICAL UNIT
TO BE FORMED LOCALLY
Directors And Heads Of Depart
ments Named at Meeting; Sup
plies And Workers Needed

Plans for the formation of an
Emergency Medical Service for Oak
land and the surrounding territory
were effected at a meeting held Mon
day, February 8, at the City Hall in
Oakland. This meeting was called by
Dr. E. l.. Baumgartner, Director of
Emergency Medical Services for part
of Garrett County. The organization
which is to be manned largely by in
dividuals who have had Red Cross
training in First Aid and Home Nurs-
ing will be activated in time of any
emergency.
The set-up will be that of combi-
nation first-aid and casualty station
and will be located in the basement of
st. Pauls Methodist church. The staff
of the casualty station is as follows
Directors, C. E. MacMurray, Lowell
LOOMS and S. Townshend Naylor;
Chief of Fracture Section, Mrs. Virgil
Kelley and julius Littman; Chiefs of
Burns Section, Mrs Melvin Right and
Mrs. Lowell LOOMS; Chief of Miscel-
laneous Injuries and Medical Emerg-
encies, Mrs. S. Townshend Naylor,
Mrs. Julius Littman and Mrs. N. L.
Broadwater; Nursing Supervisors,
Mrs. Eugene Harpold and Mrs. f. /.
Baumgartncr. The above named divi-
sions leaders have all had advanced
first-aid training. They will be as
sisted by a volunteer corps of persons
who have had Home nursing and
Standard first-aid courses. The entire
program will be under the supervision
of Drs. R. R. Williams and E. l..
Baumgartncr
Supplies Wanted
1t is necessary that certain sup
plies and services be furnished by
residents of Oakland for the proper
functioning of the unit, Dr.. Baum
gartner stated. A canvass of the town
will be made at which time the loan
or gift Of certain things will be asked.
Items needed are: Cots, blankets,
sheets, pillows, pillow cases, basins,
towels, hot water bottles, electric
pads, extension cords, ice caps, bed
pans, The loan of cars and trucks will
also be sought in case of emergency.
There are a number of other volun-
teer workers who will be required
such as messengers, litter bearers
and general assistants. Volunteers for
these services should communicate
with the directors living in Oakland.
Since this project is for the protec-
ton of all in case of any disaster, it
is very definitely a project for the
community as a whole and should be
given the utmost of support by all
persons in and about Oakland, DR..
Baumgartner emphasized

Col. Henderson Tells
Spoilers Their Work
Is Vital to Defense
Importance of System Stressed
Before About $50 Attending
Meeting Tuesday Evening

Importance of the air raid spotter
system and the Importance Of all
other so-called defense systems were
emphasized Tuesday night by Col.
George Henderson of the Internal
Security Division of the Third Serv-
ice Command, as he addressed about
$50 spoilers and other interested per
sons at the Court House in Oakland.
Col Henderson declared plans were
being formulated for greater coordi-
nation of various defense units which
will probably include the organiza-
ton of groups or assignment of exist
ing groups to anti-sabotage observa-
ton. 1--WE must do the same thing on
the ground that you plane spoilers
are doing in the air" he said.
Urges Preparedness
"The greatest mistake we here in
America can make" Col. Henderson
said, ''is to get the idea we are safe
and secure from attack or invasion.
So long as Hitler knows that his sub
marines can sink ships almost at will
in the battle of the Atlantic, we have
little to fear, but with the tide of the
battle steadily turning in our favor,
we must be prepared for several pos
sibilitics.
"These include air raids along the
Eastern coast; submarine shelling of
Eastern coastal cities; commando
raids along the seaboard; surprise
airplane attacks similar to our Doc
little raid on Tokyo; widespread sabo-
tage; and heavy bomber raids far in
land. These are not mere possibilities.
"The worst can happen here We
must be ready for the worst, no mat
ter what form it takes. He reminded
his audience that in Norway, where
people felt reasonably safe in 1910,
they were betrayed from within. When
citizen soldiers went to the armory as
invasion threatened they were fired
upon by men already in the armory
In Holland the Germans landed be-
hind the trops on Dutch airfields. In
Belgium bridge guards were shot
down by Germans disguised as Bel
gian civilians. Pearl Harbor took us
by surprise"
Col. Henderson praised the work of
tha o,,I 4O1I Of +1,oi,,
portance to the army in checking the
flight planes. He urged them to con-
tinuc their work and increase the
number of persons interested and al
ready serving.
"Thc system of spotter stations is
far more important than even the
spoilers realize" he said, "for on you
depends the ultimate safety and Sc
curity of all Americans. You are
working for the army which depends
on you for accurate information on all
air activity"
The meeting was conducted by A.
G.. Hcsen, district director. Corp. V.
H. Tiffeney, of the regional office in
Philadelphia, outlined the history of
the spotter service and exhibited
motion picture training film, outlin-
ing the work of the air raid warning
system and giving actual demonstra-
tions of what happens when a spotter
reports plane or planes Howard P.
Loughric, supervisor of Garrett and
Allcgany county spoilers, and Mayor
L. NJ. Fraley also spoke.
The meeting was part of Ground
Observer Corps Aircraft Spoilers
week in Maryland, as proclaimed by
Governor Herbert i. O'Conor.
Prior to the meeting a number of
Legionnaircs had dinner with Col.
Henderson.
