: LONDON.—Special details have
now been published of the par
liamentary bill by means of which
the Churchill government will re
establish, as from beginning of
1952, the Home Guard of the vol
unteer defense force, on the pat
tern of World War II
A notable part of the bill is that |
it divides Britain into two sections.
" The eastern section, where the’
¢ American atom bomb bases are
! concentrated, will be provided as
6 quickly as possible with a far
. stronger and more effective vol
. unteer defense force than the rest
" of the country, which will be re- |
~ quired to build up only a nucleus
. defense organization. |
; The dividing line runs north to
. south from Flamborough Head to
. Selsey Bill. East of this line, the
aim will be to recruit 100,000 men
in battalions of effective strength.
The rest of the country will be
. organized in skeleton battalions
: totaling between 20,000 and 25,000.
Alarm Foreseen
The view of the Attlee opposi
tion is that this measure is mis
timed and is likely to caues alarm
both at home and abroad, and,
© furthermore, is a provocation of
the Russians.
Nevertheless, on the grounds of
trying to maintain national unity
" and bipartisan policy on matters
. of defense and foreign policy, Cle
' ment R. Attlee’s Laborite opposi
' tion has given notice that it will
. not oppose the Home Guard bill.
. It will concentrate on amending
and modifying it in committee
. stages of the bill’s passage through
. Parliament,
E Emanuel Shinwell, Defense
: Minister in the late Labor govern
. ment, called for assurance that
" the Home Guard would not be
. used in any industrial dispute. He
. was given this assurance by Win
ston Churchill’'s War Minister,
. Anthony Head.
- The bill which was given its
' second reading, provides for an
unpaid peacetime Home Guard of
- 125,000 volunteers, who will be
. trained and equipped as economi
~ cally as possible for an annual
~sum of about 2,500,000 pounds a
¢ year.
4 Main Tasks Cited -
~ The main tasks will be the
- guarding of key points like air
. dromes and armament factories,
Iz,The members will help civil de
" sense organizations in the event
- of heavy air attack. Home guards- |
_ men will be equipped as soon as \
- possible with rifles, Sten guns, tin |
© hats, and armlets, Uniforms will |
- come later. Meanwhile, there will
-be an allowance of 2 pounds, 12
. shillings to defray cost of damage
to Home Guardsmen's own cloth
= ing.
" The minimum training period
. in every three-month period for
. every Home Guard unit will be
4115 hours, or just over one hour a
. week on the average. Enlistment
. will be voluntary. Volunteers will |
. sign on for two years and will be
" subject to military discipline when
“ion duty or when mobilized.
i 18 to 65 Age Limits
3; There will be no penalties for
~é’.-',;‘f.failure to turn up for training.
U Agze limits are 18 to 65. In the
E’fe\'ent of war, the Home Guardl
. “would be rapidly expanded to
£1900,000 strong. During World War
;;i 11. Home Guard strengfh reached
o.a peak of more than 1,700,000.
.4 Mr. Churchill, on his visit to
@ President Truman in January, will |
~f'“{;'undoubtedly use reestablishment |
¢y of the Home Guard — with the
%‘?,eflort and sacrifices it requires
¥ from the ordinary citizen—as fur
gg,‘ther evidence of the consciousness
¥ iwherewith Britain is tackling not
§r;,-only its own defense, but the de
¥ sense of America’s most import
¢ ant atom-bomb base.
#% The Home Guard would be conr
<. plementary to the defensive
’:j%strength of the regular armed
;;;r_,'forces. But Britain’s armed com
£¢ mitments in many other parts of
¥ the world, notably in the Middle
’E:East and Malaya, make the Home
§~’Guard a much-needed standby.
