Civic Women's Club hears Civil Defense for Kane County Kane County most likely will not be a target in the event of a nuclear attack, but every place will be subject to radioactive fallout in such an event These were introductory words by Frank Reeder, before the Kanab Womens Civic Club, for a on lecture and demonstration Civil Defense. Mr. Reeder and Mr. Einer Johnson, along with Sheriff Norman Swapp, Kane County Civil Defense director, were guests of the Womens club held last Thursday at the Parry Lodge in Kanab. The two men had met earlier with the County Commission to set up a County Civil Defense plan, which actually has been in the making for some time. The county plan will be forthcoming in the next few weeks, as soon as printed material is completed, the men aid. The plan will contain information about what to do and where to go in case of a nuclear emergency, along with a complete list of approved public fallout shelters in the area, and directions on how to reach them. There will also be instructions and information explaining how to build a shelter in a home should a person be unable to reach a public shelter. Since many residents live outside of downtown city areas, these intructions are of particular significance. Mr. Johnson pointed out that Civil Defense is not only a good thing in case of nuclear attack, but also in case of flood, fire or any large scope emergency. Mr. Johnson said that engineers have surveyed Kane County for fallout shelters and stated that the County is fortunate in that there is sufficient shelters. Maybe they are not just what youd like, but they are available, he said, pointing out that they may include caves, etc. He said a person would be 40 better off in a fallout shelter than outside. A home, without any modifications would be only 19 better than outside (speaking of a basement). The plan which has been agreed upon between Civil Defense and the County, also contains general information regarding nunclear radiation and fallout. While it is hoped that residents will never have to use this information, it should be kept in a safe, convenient place, stated Billy Terril, County Commissioner in charge of Civil Defense. Studies indicate that in case of a nuclear attack by an enemy, over 100 million lives would be saved by proper fallout shelter. Many people would survive the initial blast but would then be exposed to lethal radiation fallout unless proper shelter was provided. Each of the forthcoming folders will have instructions on how to use the basement, crawl space, or walls of a home for shelter for those people who do not have community shelter available to them. Also included is a complete list of supplies that would be needed during a nuclear emergency. The information developed in the Kane County Community Shelter Plan could save the lives of citizens in the event of attack. This information has been the results of careful analysis and professional planning. I urge the people of Kane County to read the information carefully and then put it with their other valuable Commissioner Terril papers, said. Mr. Reeder and Mr. Johnson were delighted to meet with the Womens Civic Club while here to discuss the plan with the County Commission, and expressed pleasure with the meeting. |
