BABSON ASKS YOU A QUESTION

I don't place much confidence
in Evacuation Plans. The theory is
that on sharp short blows of whis-
ties, horns, etc., lasting minutes,
the city should evacuate. Those in
automobiles may be able to do it;
but am too dumb to imagine a city
of $4,000 or upwards being able to
do so. Besides, where would the
people go? How could the near sub
urbs house or feed them? What is
the Federal or State Civil Defense
organization doing to provide suffi-
cient shelter? If / should be caught
without an automobile in any city
when the alert was sounded,
would not try to get out. I would go
to the nearest building or home
and ask to go to the basement.
Every basement should be limited
shelter; but I understand that
to have one bomb proof and fall
out proof, it should be built into
the cellar or yard with concrete
blocks and covered with feet of
dirt. Shelters against fallout should
be kept stocked with drinking water,
canned food, old clothing, toilet con-
veniences and d battery radio. For
particulars write to the Federal
Civil Defense, at Washington, D. c.,
for their free booklet on Home
Shelters for Family Protection in
an Atomic Attack TM-5-5." Let
me ad the sad fact that less than
one per cent of American homes
have sent for this booklet.
Bomb Hits VS.. FallOut
The force of an atomic bomb is
many thousand times that of the
largest TINT bomb ever made. 1t
not only has a terrific powerful ex-
plosion but creates heat of 5000

Washington And News Releases
Every department in Washington
is showering newspaper editors with
releases" about Russia to make
people war-minded". But you will
find very little instruction as to
what to do in case Russia should
decide tonight to strike u.s. Pre-
sumably, the reason is that prepara-
ton for war temporarily boosts
business and employment; while
the only sales the Civil Defense
people can help are those of the
manufacturers of shovels and a few
needed dugout and hospital sup
plies. -
/ am a fairly intelligent man, but
I did not know until yesterday that
when the radar at our national
border signals an alert, all ra-
dio broadcasting stations except
two must shut down. This alert
means that Russian planes are COM
ing and can reach you in Is minutes.
The two operating stations are
$40 and 1910 kilocycles on your
radio dial. Mark these two numbers
on the wall near your radio-all
newspapers should carry them on
their radio page until every man,

STATE DEPARTMENT NONSENSE

The State Department, 1T has been reveal
ed, paid modern dance group $275000 in
salaries and gave it cocktail parties which
cost the taxpayers some $1,800.00. This was
the information given Congress recently by
j. F. Magdanz.
Oddly enough, this sort of nonsense has
been going on for years. The idea behind
the whole bamboozle is, of course, to give
other countries an idea of how we live-or
to exchange our culture with that of other
countries. 1t is close question whether we
have gained anything in recent years by
exchanging culture with foreign nations
Certain, tours, and certain artists, have made
good impressions, but other have made bad
impressions, and too much of our American
cultural exchange has been on the level of
rock n roll and jazz.
Many Europeans, especially, are repelled
by the modern American jazz, or New York
city stuff, or hillbilly music, and the thou
sands of dollars plunked out by taxpayers,
and spent by the State Department, brings
us little or no benefit. 1t is time such assin-
inc programs are brought to an end.
Milford chronicle., 1958-05-23

pie would rather be killed outright
by such bomb than left alive but
injured.
The bCmb, however, directly
affects only a small area of, say,
five miles. With the fallout, the
situation is very different. This is
the dispersal of the mushroom
cloud made by the explosion of the
bomb This may travel 20 to 80
miles according to the winds and
weather. The Civil Defense has not
yet succeeded in waking us up to
the need for escaping from this
deadly fa1lout in the air. Before
closing this column, let me publicly
render thanks to Mrs. Bell Land,
Director Civil Defense, Crystal
River, West Fla, who awakened me
to the situation.
Money Spent On Backyard Shelters
Should Be Tax-Deductible
Congress is wise in spending bill
lions for missiles, submarines, and
radar systems; but with all this
protection, one or two Russian
bombers could sneak through. This
is no reason for us to get faint
hearted and compromise with Com
munism, but it is reason for us to
spend much more money on shell
ters and on educating families to
make their own shelters. The news
papers should encourage this.
Furthermore, money spent on
such shelters should be deductible
for income-tax purposes. TINS
would cost the government nothing
And a great mass movement to
build shelters would increase en-
ployment all over the nation, and
not only in those cities where mis-
sile, automobile and airplane plants
are located. Let us teach our chill
dren self-suryival.

on May 29 if they have not already
done so. The number of pupils in
grade one for September will be
one of the factors determining how
many must be on double sessions
when school opens.
The regular teachers for pupils
in grade one will direct the activi-
ties on orientation day. Since many
new students will be fatigued by
noon, it is sincerely hoped that par
ents will call for their beginners
shortly after 1900 noon. Those

lar dismissal hours.

Saturday, as you know, was Arm

1t was an honor to be chosen and

Food Is A Good Buy

The dollar and cents price of
food has gone up, but ths time it
takes to earn the food money has
gone down, according to w. T. Nc
Allister extension marketing spe-
cialist at the University of Della
ware.
In 1910 it look the average wage
Garner 552 hours to earn enough
money 60 buy a basket of groceries.
In 1856 it took the average wage
Garner 9.4 hours to earn enough
money to buy that same basket OF
groceries. Back in 1929 1t took 81
hours to earn that grocery basket.
OF course, the average wage earn
er today is eating more and better
food than in the past. One of the
things the food buyer today is pay
ing for is processing and services.
such as ready-mix -four and ready
to bake pies, TV-dinners and the
like.
The actual proportion Of the in
come spent for food in recent years
has been between 25 and 29 per
cent. For the same amount and
type OF 1000 the consumer was Bett-
ing in 1853, it would take less
than 20 per cent of his income.
McAllister says that what this all
means is simply that the food buyer
today is getting a good deal Retail
food prices have gone up, but not as
rapidly as income This is partly be-
cause of increased efficiency on the
part of farmers. They are producing
an abundance of food which has
held farm prices down.
Some of the reasons the consumer
blames his budget trouble to food Is
because he is eating meat and other
more expensive foods more often
than he used to, and because he Is
spending his income on other things
which he didn't have before such
as Tv sets. automatic washers and
two automobiles.
Food is the most often bought
item on the bill so IL catches lot
of the blame for a tight budget SIM
ply because il is so handy.

miss Mrs. Moore and hope that she
will soon be back with us.
Some time ago our troop visited
the fire house. Mr.. Maloney showed
us all of the equipment We also
went to Mulco Products to see how
wooden spoons and forks are made.
Everyone gathered up a few to take
home as souvenirs.
At our last meeting we visited
the Milford Chronicle Publishing
Company Mr.. Bob Yerkes took us
through and gave each one an
engraved plate with their name
on it. He also gave copy of the
latest edition of the Milford Chron-
icle to everyone.
We have completed several pro-
jects since our troop has been or
ganized. For May Day, we made
baskets for our mothers and put
pansies in them, which we later set
out at home. Then for Mothers Day,
we all made pictures for our mo-
theirs out of plastic doilies.
Our meetings for the last three
weeks have been at the home of
Mrs. Margaret Ann Donovan. Mrs.
Donovan's mother, Mrs. Dickerson,
is the shutin that our troop has
adopted. At one of our meetings,
we helped Mrs. Dickerson celebrate
her birthday.
On Saturday we took a trip up
to the Dover Air Base. We saw all
of the different kinds of planes and
went through one of the large cargo
planes.
We are all looking forward to the
Memorial Day parade. Our troop
will be marching with all the
soldiers, National Guard, Scouts,
etc. We hope big crowd comes out
