AT present many places on the South-East Coast have their own system of warnings with regard to air raids, but an endeavour is now being made to Secure greater uniformity. In the meantime the Chief Constable of Essex has made arrangements to notify the inhabitants in the principal centres of the approach of aircraft. The warning will consist of three short blasts of a siren followed by continuous blasts for 15 seconds, and this will be kept up for three minutes. All inhabitants are urged for their own safety to seek the nearest possible shelter as soon as the siren is sounded, and under no circumstances to congregate in the streets. 560
