Canberra, F.C.T. Precautionary measures against gas attacks on Australian cities are being taken by the Commonwealth Government.

Replying to Sir Henry Gullett (U.A.P. Vic.) in the House of Re presentatives, the Assistant Minis- ter for Defence (Mr. Francis). said that a committee of Air Force, Navy, and Military officials, which had investigated the problem, had indicated that, in its opinion, the possibility of the gas attack on Aus- tralian cities was not very great. However, action was being taken to prepare plans which would be put into operation should the occasion arine. In addition, the training of police and ambulance personnel in anti-gas measures was being con- sidered. The possibility of manu-: facturing cheap serviceable gas- masks and protective clothing was also being investigated.
