PRECAUTION

| AGAINST AIR ATTACK

SHELTERS IN CELLARS

Paris, May 17. Concluding a series of meetings called by the Prefecture of Police to perfect the defence of the Paris population against air attack, two commissions charged with organis- ing the "passive defence" system have recommended that all Paris- lans acquire gas masks as soon as possible and that proper shelters be constructed in all apartment buildinga.

The commissions' recommenda- tlona were not intended to alarm the population, which is already fami-

to Har with efforts combat the effects of gas attacks and incendiary bombs, but it was pointed out that if the people wait until they need masks before they buy them, it may be too late.

"The public should be warned that it is to their greatest Interest | to provide themselves with masks. as their manufacture can only be the developed in proportion to orders received. Wo ennnot, there- fore, count on suddenly satisfying numerou demands coming Fince."
