Most glaring revelation of the rehearsal, however, was that not enough people take such an event seriously. Today, as Cache county civilian defense council officials studied results of the practice air raid, they admitted that most of the city would be demolished, many of the Inhabitants killed, other hundreds wounded, before anyone would "get down to business.

The resolution also asked for one-- y e a rs compulsory military training for all American men before their 22nd birthday as a postwar policy. The legion recommended that in order to render complete service to the country it is necessary that there be enacted a national service law whereby manpower may be assigned and utilized in war production whenever and whereever it is needed, just as assignment is made of manpower to the armed forces.
