Sweden with their own shelters,
capable of withstanding attacks of
A-bombs. The total cost will be
about 400 million kronor. These
shelters, which will be blasted out
of solid bedrock, should, accord
ing to the board, be made COM
mercially profitable in peacetime
by being rented out as garages,
community rooms, etc. Funds have
been provided to cover the con-
struction of eight large establish
ments in Stockholm during the
next year, while five more of the
$50 needed shelters will be started
in other parts of the country.
Plans now formulated comprise
thirty-seven rock S h ell ters in
twenty-four cities, of which. Stock
holm will receive eight and Goth
enburg and Malmo three each.
The number of ordinary shelters in
Sweden is about $4,000, with
capacity of one million persons.
Some 1000 new shelters of this
kind are needed annually.
