For one thing. the destructiveness Of
the bombs now being made in this country
and Russia already make the recentlv-ron-
Quoted evacuation drills obsolete The re
cent drills were BASED On the possibility Of
atomic bomb attacks
Yet the evacuYtions practiced would not
have afforded protection against an attack
with more destructive weapons now being
made and available The fall-out Of radio

almost beyond estimation had the recent
evacuation drills"been the real thing
There has been dangerous amount If
