BOY SCOUTS PLAN
TO HELP GUARD
NATION'S COASTS
Movement Working With
, Government For a Work
Boys Can Do
The Boy Scouts of America have
.found another way to fulfil their
obligation of "duty to country" by
•co-operating with the naval author
' ities in the protection of our coast.
For this purpose the Emergency
,-Coast Service has been organized and
tsteps are now being taken to pre
•par the Scouts in coast cities and
Howne for this service.
No scout may participate In this
emergency coast service unless he
{makes voluntary application, has the
.approval of his parent or guardian
'and of his school authorities (if he is
Ja schol boy> and is recommended
.'by his scoutmaster. In the coast
• work only boys who are tifteen years
of age or over will be accepted;
'scouts uuder fifteen may sign to as
■sist in the service at certain hear
quarters and stations as messengers
and such other work as will not ne
cessitate their being away from
Jiome over night. It Is distinctly un
derstood that no boy in the Boy
Seor.t emergency service binds him
self in any particular to enlist in
either the army or navy or any
branch of military service.
The duty of those who participate
in the coast service under the direc
tion of the naval authorities will be
to maintain vigilant lookout at visual
stations and light houses along the
•'coast, acting as messengers and or
derlies at navy yards and navy hear
quarters and in general performing
useful and helpful to the
'country in time of national emer
gency. They will work in shifts for
limited periods of one or two weeks'
duration at a time, so as not to inter
fere too much with their school
•work. So far as possible boys on
duty will be kept within reasonable
distance of their homes. It has been
>agreed that the naval authorities will
.not shift boys in this service from
one place to another without the
consent of the Home Department,
nnd the Home Department will se
cure special permission of parents or
guardians before such shift is put
Into effect.
Before the services of the Scouts
can be accepted in this capacity leg
islation by Congress is necessary.
This legislation is being prepared
and has the hearty approval of the
Secretary of the Navy and other
naval officials.
Records at the Boy Scout head
quarters show that there are over
75,000 Boy Scouts living within a
short distance of the sea coast, ev
eryone eager to be og the greatest
-possible service to his country.
By such service as trained Boy
Scouts will be able to give, it is
probable that thousands of able
bodied men may thus be relieved
fo rmore active service in other
capacities.
