Public Sees Immediate Need
For Civilian Defense Units
By KENNETH FINK
Director, Th0 New Jersey F°U
Setting up New Jersey civilian
defense units u quickly as possible
meets with widespread approval
in all sections of the state,
Judging by a New Jersey Poll
survey just completed.
More than
three out of
every five New
Jersey voters
questioned on
the matter see
immediate need
for setting up
civilian defense
units throughout
the state.
Only one in eight feels they're
not needed yet
When New Jersey Poll staff
reporters asked a cross-section of ]
1,000 New Jersey voters in 17 of |
the state's 21 counties and in '44
different communities:
"How do you feel about having
civilian defense units set up In
New Jersey at this time—do you
think it's very important to do
this es quickly as possible, or do
you feel it's all right to do but
there's no rush about it, or would
you eay it's not needed yet?"
The results were:
Quickly as possible 62%
All right but no rush 16
Not needed yet 13

FOR
SEE
Sentimect for immediately setting
up civilian defense units in
the state is approximately the
same in all population groups
measured. About three out of
every five men and women questioned
In. all city sizes, age
groups, occupations, and educational
levels, feel it important to
set up civilian defense units as
fast as possible.
And there eeems ta be little
difference in attitude along political
lines. Democrats, Republicans,
and In-depec dents—all agree
on their need.
Chief reason for favoring such
action in Russia's present attitude.
What should undoubtedly be
heartening to state and local
leaders charged with New Jer-
sey's civilian defense is that a
good majority of all those questioned
eay they would be interested
in joining- civilian, defense
units at the present time.
When New Jersey Foil staff
reporters asked:
"Would you yours-elf have any
interest in joining a civilian
defense unit in your locality at
this time if one were "being
formed?"
The replies were:
Yes 55%
No 39
No opdnion 6
Previous New Jersey Poll eurveys
have shown majority sentiment—and
usually a very substantial
majority—in favor of being
prepared militarily for any
emergency. For example, only
last month a New Jersey Poll
eurvey showed an overwhelming
majority of the state's voters
favoring extension, of the Selective
Service Act for another 3
years.
And today's results indicate
that the New Jersey public believes
it wise to have civilian defense
units ready in case of sudden
emergency.
Baby Crop Watched
As Business Signal
Business h«« Its eyes on the U.S
baby crop, which is running
1,000,000 more- than in pre - war
years. The all-time record was
3,700,000 births in 1947 followed by
3,600,000 in 1949. The Census Bu
reau sayo marriages are down
somewhat but births are still ris
tag. Of course, population gains
mean bigger demands for hous
ing, furnishing, food, clothes and
schools. The outlook is for an in
crease to more than 46,000,00
families within five yeere a
against today's 42,000,000.

Employment Conditions
improved in April
Employment condition* throughout
N«w Jersey improved generally
during April according to
a report today by Employment
Security Director Hoffman. Compeneable
unemployment insurance
claims dropped and benefit payments
fell 1B percent, Hoffman
said.
Last month a total of 309,776
compensate week claims is reflected
in total state unemployment
compensation benefit disbursements
which dropped to
$6,616,000 compared with $8,174,-
773 paid out in. March.
Although there ww a "HgtLt increase
during April in the volume
of new unemployment, Hoffman
said the condition was entire^
normal and was caused by the
post—Easter lull in the garment
manufacturing industry.
