WASHINGTON, R-Secretary<
of the Interior Mckay Saturday
announced appointment of a four
member survey team to study all
department operations in Alaska
and recommend changes aimed at
economy and efficiency.
Mckay said the teams itinerary
will include all sections of the
territory where there are depart

berg, an attorney at Fresno, Calf,
and Robert Coote, member of

The Alaskan survey is part of

Mass Evacuation
Drill in Spokane

OLYMPIA, Wash, R-The ma
TONS first hydrogen bomb slim
ulated practice mass evacuation
of people from a metropolitan
area has been set for Spokane,
Wash, on April 26.
Vice Adm. Daniel E. Barley,
Washington States director of
civil defense, announced Friday
the inland city Of 10000 popula
lation will give the first test per-
Torrance in a drill limited to ap-
proximately 10000 of the city's
inhabitants.
Persons in the south sector will
walk in a southerly direction
when a signal is given at 9:35 am.
Those on the other side Of the line
will proceed north. They will con-
tinue until another signal halts
their march.
Buses Inen WILL pick up the
walkers and return them to the
business district. Under actual
bomb-danger conditions, Barley
said, the buses would carry the
people out into the rolling hills
which surround the city.
The test will be on voluntary
basis and no effort will be made
to compel compliance.
Barley expressed the belief
evacuation would be possible
under actual conditions because
the country is developing a radar
screen which should permit up
to four hours warning.
