The engineers in their survey
made these assumptions:
/. That one bomb would be
dropped on each target. Actually,
most experts say that If enemy
planes would be able to get over
a city they would drop more than
one bomb.
z. That the bomb would be az
times as powerful as the Hiroshima
bomb. No explanation was made
why a bomb of just that force was
assumed.
3. That the city attacked would
be a typical one and that the
bomb would be expected on or
about the midtown area where
average building heights would

Civil Defense Lists
Heavy Equipment for
Use in Emergency

The Washington Civil Defense
organization has made an inven-
tory Of steam Shovels, bulldozers
and other equipment in the area
which would be needed in case Of
an atomic bomb attack.
This equipment would be
wheeled into action to open lanes
through rubble-clogged streets to
start rescue work and fire fight
ing.
The listing of heavy duty equip
ment is part of an inventory being
taken by States and cities
throughout the Nation. Govern
ment engineers have calculated
how much rubble and debris would
block city streets in case of a sue
cessful attack. What would be
needed primarily would be steam
Shovels. cranes. clam-Shell buck
cts and bulldozers.
Sequence of Steps Listed.
Inspector James E. Fondahl, di-
rector of Civil Defense for the Dis
trict. and P. Y. K. Howat, head of
rescue and repair services in the
CD organization, listed these steps
as among those taken to cope with
destruction made by an atomic
bomb:
1. The location. of heavy duty
machinery, tools and other equip
ment has been ascertained through
questionnaires to 604 contractors,
builders. lumber yards and hard
ware concerns.
2. A roster of every company
with equipment available, giving
the names of two persons who
could authorize the use Of the
equipment and where they can be
reached day or night, has been
prepared.
8. An organization has been
formed to bring in the aid of engi-
neers, architects and skilled and
unSkilled construction workers
who would be called on in the
clearing away of debris and in
repairs.
All Gear Available.
The object of the inventory of
heavy duty equipment, Mr.. Howat
said, is to be able to surround a
devastated area with practically
all the equipment available in the
area.
He said Julian w. Berla, archi-
J tect, and Clement F. Preller. pres
ident of the Washington Central
J Labor Union, are in charge of list
ing the workers who would be
: needed. Mr.. Preller, he explained.
has charge of the roster of skilled
+. and unskilled workers in the
building and construction trades,
and Mr.. Berla of the group of
engineers and architects who
would be called on for technical
aid.
Calculations of prospective dam
age have been made by engineers
for the Federal Civil Defense Ad-
miniStration. AS a basis for their
figures they selected Sc cities and
industrial towns regarded as pos
sible targets for atomic bomb at
tacks. The list was not made
public.
Not Average City.
Mr.. Howat pointed out that cal
c,IlationS for annverage city would
, not necessarily apply to Washing
ton. Maximum building heights
here are generally less than in
other large cities and streets are
wider.
