SHARED BUNKS IN SHELTER

Shelter chaperones are needed in some London boroughs. A police officer investigating a disturb- ance in a West Ham shel- ter found two young cou- ples in bunks.

"This sort of thing is going on all over the district, but we are powerless to stop it." Mr. A. E. Waters, chief A.R.P. officer of West Ham told a reporter.

"The only solution is to have paid personnel with definite au- thority on duty cach night. Young couples find dark corners in the shelters to carry on their love making. Voluntary war- dens have not the authority to stop sharing bunks.

The voluntary warden must find a policeman, and by the time the officer arrives the couples

have gone.

"By supervision we are doing all we can but without the proper authority of paid personnel, or a Ministry order to segregate

"And with the problem men and women sleeping acpar. ately arises that of married cou. ples who won't separate.”

A Ministry of Health official said: "Restrictions should be dealt with locally, and police officers called if order cannot be kept."

When James Kitch, aged nine- teen, a labourer, of Clive Road. Romford, was fined £5 at West Ham for obstructing the police, it was stated that he told young couples in bunks: "Take no notice of him, it is nothing to do with

the police. We can stay here as long as we like."

WOMEN GOING TO birth-control clinics be- cause they DO want babies seems all wrong. But that is what is happening.

"We have been amazed at the number of women who have come to the clinics recently seeking our help in their desire to have babies," Dr. Marie Stopes, the well-known birth control expert, told a London reporter.
