The Districts blackout test on
Friday night was characterized yes
terday by Civilian Defense Director
James M. Lands as the best he has
seen in this area.
Mr.. Lands chief criticism was
aimed at few police officers who
turned street lights on at the sound
of the second sustained blast, which
is the signal allowing traffic and
pedestrians to move but continues

these incidents comprised the least
excusable flaw in the blackout."

Mr. Lands said reactions to the
signals were generally prompt and
thorough.

said Mr. Lands, they were quickly
switched off again when the error
was discovered. In one area, how
ever, about half a mile north Of

from the time the second sustained

Therefore, as other parts of the
Commlssion's statement make clear,
they would now seek organized in

at the points at which world inter-
dependence is strongest. Thus.
much of this collaboration might be
regional, e. G., European or Pan
American, and much of it might be
topical, e. g., commercial and finan-
clal. But there would be an overall
framework of political organization
sufficiently broad to develop to meet
whatever the needs of the future
might prove to be.
The Commissions proposals are
less sweeping than many being put
forward. Their success will be due.
IN part, to the fact that they do not
attempt too much.
