Abstract

WE are to-day faced with conditions hitherto almost unknown in history. Whereas, prior to the Great War, wars were fought between professional armies comprising a comparatively small section of the population, to-day war means that the whole community is involved in a life-and-death struggle. Air attack as a weapon used for the destruction of lives and property and as a means of undermining the morale of a nation is a very potent one, and there can be no doubt that until nations abandon aerial bombing, whatever the type of bomb used, whether it be high-explosive, incendiary or gas, it is imperative that the best resources of a country should be enlisted to reduce the effects of such enemy action and to maintain the confidence of the people in their strength and ability successfully to resist such attacks.
