Im not a Mormon, but I certainly believe in your philosophy of emergency preparedness with a large storage of food, water and other emergency supplies.

Kearney who traveled across country at his own expense to address a large group of Boun- tiful residents concerning threats and how to prepare for nuclear or natural disaster. Mr. Kearney is one of the most informed persons in the potential nuclear attack. Shelters may be dug into the side of a hill or deep into the ground.

KEARNEY said the U.S. government has failed in any attempt to educate or prepare the citizens of this country for a nuclear attack. At the same time, Russia is lulling the U.S. population into the belief that there will never be such an attack. But Russia is not telling its he people this propaganda, said. Russians are preparing for a nuclear attack while Americans are falling behind.
