Summary	The Director of Civilian Defense will from time to time make available to localities of the United States, its territories and possessions, equipment and supplies for the protection of persons and property from bombing attacks, sabotage, and other war hazards. Such equipment and supplies will be made available by loans to communities within the States, which communities may in turn distribute, under the direction of the Local Defense Council, the equipment and supplies to responsible and qualified individuals or organizations, all in accordance with regulations issued by the Director of Civilian Defense. Each borrowing community will designate a Local Property Officer who will act as custodian of the property and will be responsible therefor to the Office of Civilian Defense. State Property Officers are to be appointed to maintain records with respect to all property loaned in their respective States or areas, and property may, in certain instances, be delivered to the communities through such State Property Officers. State Property Officers and Local Property Officers will deal with and distribute the property only in the manner prescribed by the Director of Civilian Defense. Regional Directors of the Office of Civilian Defense are to supervise the activities of State Property Officers and Local Property Officers. The equipment and supplies shall at all times be at the disposition of the United States Government, and the United States Government shall retain its full rights as owner, lessee or borrower, as the case may be, of such property. To such extent as may be practicable, all such supplies and equipment shall at all times be clearly and distinctly marked as the property of, or under the control of, the United States Government, Office of Civilian Defense. These regulations governing such loans are part of the agreement of each community receiving such as loan, and in addition should serve as a guide to State and Local Property Officers in the performance of their duties.--p. 1.
