Gov. Dever Asks Cities
And Towns To Appoint
Civil Defense Directors

Governor Dever today forward
ed to each newspaper in the
Commonwealth an official copy Of
Executive Order Number Two,
calling upon the appointing au-
thorities in each city and town
to appoint a local Civil Defense
Director and furnish the name of
such appointee to Director John
F. Stokes prior to Sept. Is.
In issuing this order the Gov
ernor said: Civil Defense is a
matter which vitality concerns the
safety and in fact the very life
of every person within the Com
monwealth. Damage from pos
sible hostile attack spreads like
ripples on the surface of the
water. There are no places in
Massachusetts which would not
be involved either from bomb
damage, confiagration or demands
for aid in the nature of medical
assistance, fire protection, evacua-
ton shelter or otherwise.
Therefore" the Governor as
serted, there can be no COM
munity within the Common
wealth without a unit of Civil
Defense organization. 1t is my
firm belief that every community
is anxious and willing to partici-
pate in this Civil Defense pro-
gram and the purpose of Execu-
tive Order Number Two is to
make certain that there be no
laggards and that every member
of the team will be ready when
Director Stokes calls upon them
to play ball. /, accordingly, shall
use my power as Governor to fill
any vacancies which may exist on
Sept. 25."
