These licenses have been issued by the state since the tax year (for beer licenses) began May 1, and it is anticipated that the num ber for the state will reach last year's total of 5,148 before the tax year ends nine months hence. Col. Reed Heads Flight Command fc (Continued from page $) - aren't on the alert, or studying their silhouettes, they're usually in the air practicing gunnery, throw ing lead at land and towing trgets. They have to be on the ball all the time, for they've got one of the toughest jobs in any war, when the raiders come. The long months of waiting for attack doesn't make the job any easier. It is drilled into them, hour af ter hour, that it takes team work to repel any attack; that they must stay in formation unless the squad ron leader orders otherwise, pass up every temptation to get on one's own or to give onlookers a thrill. This interceptor flying is deadly serious business; on its efficiency depends often the lives of thousands of people down below. Colonel Reed simply can't get over talking about the efficiency of the many thousands of civilians who have answered their country's call as ground observers. They're the key people without whom the system couldn't function, he says. If civilians didn't take over the observation posts, army personnel would have to be detailed to the job. One doesn't have to figure much to come to the conclusion that if New England alone needs over 125,000 observers, there must be two or three million spread around the country. The army just couldn't spare that many men for such duty. Even with that young army at work on airplane spotting, the figh ter command needs more civilians everywhere- at observation posts, in filter stations, information centres. It's interesting work, with excitement cropping up very once in a while. If you want to take on such work, you can't get in direct touch with Colonel Reed; his address and 'phone number are secrets. But put in your applica tion at the Office of Civilian De fense, Room 914, at Tremont street, and it will be acted upon quickly. Working to Perfection There can't be any more impor tant duty, just at this time, the regional commander states. This is the summer season; the time when long range bombing attacks are most likely to strike. More volunteers are needed all through the organization. It can't help but be a tremen dous thrill to the first observer to spot an enemy aerial attack on New England. He'll report the planes to the filter, station, which will snan the news on to Information Centre in seconds of time. From there the interceptors will be ordered into the air as the course of the in vaders is plotted by the reports of succeeding observers. While this is being done, the an tiaircraft representative will be putting his batteries on alert all over the region, and the CAA man will be warning every transport plane in flight or on fields. Of course, the representative of the civilian ARP will be busy, too, getting the information to the cen. tral office so that whatever air raid warnings may be needed can be sounded. '. "I can't be too emphatic telling you that the system is working to perfection in every test,'' Lieutenant-Colonel Reed stated. "Don't ariv anv credit for that to me nor to the armed forces; the civilians are doing the job. All we ao is act when they tell us what's happening. "Honestly, J could sit here all evening telling you specific cases of fine performance, unselfish duty by the civilian personnel. There's a fine family tilling a market gar den not far from Boston father, mother, a son and a daughter, four of them altogether. They've been manning an observation post day and night, haven't missed report ing a single plane in the air, for nearly six months, now.' "They actually seemed apolo getic writing in the other day ask ing that a couple more observers be assigned to their post; the mark et garden is taking up an awful lot of their time at this season, but they can still trive long hours every day to plane spotting. I call them 100 per cent patriots. , Deadly Serious "Then there were two girls who were assigned to Information Cen tre, when we were in the worst throes of organization. Those girls worked at their regular jobs in offices from 9 to 5 ery day -cent Sunday. Thsn. they grabbed a bite to eat and tumbled into bed until 11 at night, when they had to get up, report to the centre at midnight to work until 6 a. m. They kept that up for two months, giving up all recreation, losing sleep, to serve their country with out pay of any kind. Man, that's real service.
