They have no mobile canteens, but must hope for the use of army field kitchens, which are forthcoming where bombing has been severe. After the 1,000-bomber raid on Cologne, detachments of the army sanitary services had to be sent to the city to help the local services prevent the spread of disease. There have been reports of a lack of medical sup- plies, and in May the police chief of Ham- burg appealed to all householders to acquire their own first aid materials. No PrivaATE SHELTERS There is nothing like the Anderson or Morrison shelter in Germany, and the standard domestic shelter is the house cellar, which is shared by the occupants of the blocks of flats in which most town dwellers live. Most have not been reinforced, because timber for props is lacking. The basement walls between adjoining houses have been pierced to provide ways of escape for people trapped under collapsed buildings. The duty of arranging for the cellar to serve as a shelter was not the public authorities’ but the landlord’s. At first, tenants had to pay their proportion of costs approved by the authorities, but so much friction and delay | arose that the State now refunds all ap- proved costs in excess of 10 marks. Since the domestic shelter is shared by a group of families, friction between neighbours and complaints of the noise made by other people’s children are fairly widespread. In charge of each shelter is a public functionary who is a sort of petty policeman, and apt to behave as such. A leading German news- paper on one occasion advised this official that he “should not immediately threaten with punishment under the law, but first make an appeal to reason,” and in the same article, pointed out to shelterers that they were liable to “undermine the authority” of the warden by “pointing out small deficiencies in the arrangements.” These cellar shelters are not, of course, bomb-proof, and with many they are un- popular because people have been drowned in them when water mains were fractured. In Berlin in the autumn of 1941, 600 Ger- mans were drowned when a big cellar was flooded. In November, 1941, officials of a railway station in Berlin were drowned in a cellar, and in Hamburg and Cologne there have been authentic reports of casual- RIVER BARBECUE | DINE AND DANCE CHICKEN DINNERS AND MEALS CAMPBELL RIVER, B.C.
