'Fu||-Dress' Afraid Test
Carried Out in n. Y. Area
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 9.-More than
12,500,000 persons participated last
night in spectacular, full-dress re-
hearsal for what they hoped would
never happen-an enemy air attack.
Army bombers playing the role of
attacking planes roared overhead
in a tri-State air-raid test for Della
ware, New Jersey and Southern New
York, to afford what Maj. Gen.
Thomas A. Terry OF the I'd Service
Command said would be full training
for all branches Of civilian defense.
Huge Army searchlight beams
stabbed the skies, following the
planes on their training flight.
Meanwhile, civilian air spoilers were
under orders to report the planes
just as they would report enemy
planes In the event of a real attack
As the planes approached each
warning area from the south the
warning signals were sounded-the
yellow long before the planes reach
ed the borders Of the States, the
blue as they neared the areas and
the red as they came directly over
head. The second blue was sounded
as the planes passed out of bombing
range in each area, and the all-clear
followed as the hypothetical danger
ended cOmpletely.

Trade unionists no longer regard
international labor unity simply as

as a precise weapon which can con-
cretely aid in winning the war In

Bolivian labor, according to the
AIN correspondent in La Paz, Is
convinced that the decision OF the
U. s. government last week to send
