Clay Issues Report
By the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, July 22.-New
York is getting up its guard.
Spurred by war signs, officials have
put civilian defense preparations
on a rush-order basis.
The hastened program is State
wide. but the emphasis is on New

point of danger in any atom bomb

Broad plans are being mapped

Creeping Socialism
Must Stand Up to
Comic Booklets
BY the Associated Prsss

A comic book attack on Creep
ing socialism" described as "our
greatest menace in this country"
was announced yesterday by Will
liam H. Wood, president of the
National Research Bureau of
Chicago.
The booklet, America Under
Socialism" pictures an American
blinded by the bright promises
Of so-called security" with "the
social state" gradually increasing
controls over his life and freedom.
Mr.. Wood said 500, 900 copies
of the 16-page booklet had been
ordered to start.
To-day with few 'socialistic'
ideas In effect 1t Is estimated that
you are giving away one out of

as blood, food and fire-fighting
chemicals. the worst possible stu
alton must be assumed. At the
worst, he said, as many as Is
United States cities might be hit
on the first day of war. Mr.. Larsen
emphasizes this is an assumption
for planning purposes only.
Great Disaster Possible.
Experts have estimated there
may be up to 100000 casualties
from an atom bomb. At that rate,
is bombs could cause 100000
casualties-the greatest war dis
aster, in human lives, in world
history.
How Americans act in such a
disaster might mean the differ
ence between victory and defeat.
If they panic. w. Stuart Syming-
ton. chairman of the NSRB, has
said, the first sneak raid could be
fatal.
Mr.. Larsen Is making studies
Of recent disasters, like the South
Amboy IN. j. munitions explo-
sion that killed 81 persons and
injured 312 on May 10, for hints
on how panic can be averted.
Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg, Air
Force chief of staff, says that in
any war first Aid Force priority
must be given to knocking out
the enemy industries and mill
tary installations, second priority
to defending American cities with
interceptor plants and antiair-
craft devices.
IF we could foresee the posi-
bility Of achieving 100 per cent
effectiveness against enemy air
attacks. through any system Of
air defense technologically and
economically feasible, we might be
inclined to reverse these priori-
ties" Gen. Vandenberg told a
Senate Appropriations subcom-
mittee.
Defense Far Behind Europe's.
United States civilian defenses
probably are far behind those of
European countries and Russia.
A pamphlet by the Joint Con-
gressional Atomic Committee says
20 million people are reported to
have participated in 1947 in Rus
sian voluntary" civil defense ex-
ercises. About 5 million are be-
blieved to be receiving civil defense
training each year.
The United States began talking
Of peace-time civilian defense
plan as long ago as 1916. Organi-
zation Of volunteers is incomplete
now because the target date Of
1858 was set.
Defense officials say there were
two arguments for not creating a
huge defense organization years
before it might be needed.
|, First was the cost, which they
say will be extremely heavy. Sec
ond, they believed If great num-
bers Of volunteers were enlisted
and no emergency occurred for
years, it would be difficult to hold
their interest and keep them from
dropping out.
Debate Delays Plan.
Debate over how much respon-
Sibility the Federal Government
should assume for rescuing people
from bombed cities has delayed
some city and State plans.
Mayor Elmer E. Robinson of
San Francisco has demanded that
the Government place more en-
phasis on military help for ci-
villains. He also told the Joint
Atomic Energy Committee that |
the Government should designate
