2. Appointment of a plant air-raid precaution chief. Baurat Schunck has been designated for this.

3. Establishment of a plant air-raid precaution program by the plant air-raid precaution chief.

This plant air-raid precaution program includes:

Communication between the plant alarm post and the public air-raid warning service, the latter to be organized by the authorities. Enemy planes must be reported to the authorities, and from there to the plant alarm post, sufficiently early to allow for carrying out preparatory measures before the arrival of planes.

The following key words are to be used: 
 
  For preliminary warning  “air raid danger”   
  For main warning   “air raid alarm,” and “end of air   raid alarm” respectively   
  For all clear   “end of air raid danger”   
 
The following steps are to be taken at the key word “air raid danger”:  
 
  Notify certain plant officials.
  Hold the reinforced fire brigade in readiness. 
  Man the first aid stations. 
  Hold all motor vehicles in readiness. 
  Notify the workers assigned to work squads. 
  Take precautionary measures for the sudden cutting off of steam, electricity, gas, etc. 
  Prepare for the interruption of difficult production processes. 
  Prepare for blackout if after dark.  
  Open the shelters for the employees. 
 
The signal for “air raid alarm” or “end of air raid alarm” will be sounded by means of an alarm which must be audible in all places of work. When the signal is sounded the whole staff, except in plants which cannot interrupt production, is to go to the shelters intended for it in each plant. The personnel belonging to the so-called “active crew” who cannot stop work, must have gas-protection equipment and have been instructed in its use. The personnel assigned to “work squads,” which must also be equipped for gas protection, must proceed to the shelter designated for each squad. Upon “end of air raid alarm,” the decontamination squads will start their activities first; after them will follow the repair and demolition squads, and only afterwards the “passive crews” will leave the shelters and return to their place of work, led by plant air-raid precaution officials or foremen. In the near future (a special request will be made for this), a list will have to be made of active employees-that is all those who cannot leave their places of work — furthermore, all person- […el]
