Civilian defense. There's not much that is omitted in the equipment of these special gas and electrical emergency trucks. On the floor in front of the trunk are, left to right, the following items: a fitter's kit for repairing small gas leaks; a rubberized blanket for electrical work; an atmosphere testing machine; an inhalator; a Phister fire extinguisher; an air blower ; a lux fire extinguisher kit; a splicer's kit containing insulated hand tools; a fuse kit; a manhole guard rail and a rubber mat for electrical work. The worker at the left is wearing a special mask with a half-hour suplly of oxygen for use where a fresh air hose is not practical. He is also wearing rubber gloves for repair work. The man standing in the center is holding a hand operated manhole pump. The truck and its equipment were on display at Madison Square Garden, New York, as part of the huge civilian defense show held there in October
