the gravest danger in event Of

alton of this or any other area
"as mere nonsense" should the
country be attacked.
ITO evacuate the people Of
Washington to Virginia - or

with a downwind bringing ra-
diation fallout would be sheer
suicide" he told the Ameri-

Many highways leading out

Cites Responsibility
when the battlefront is
transferred from afar to the
backyard, the responsibility Of
the Federal Government also
is transferred to the backyard
as far as defense Of its citizens
is concerned" Mr.. Holafield
said.
Unfortunately, we do not
have an effective Civil Defense
( program today" he said. Thus
far, the Federal Government
has been unwilling to accept its
responsibility of providing for
the protection of their people
in the event of an enemy at
tack"
Mr.. Holafield estimated that
an adequate shelter program to
protect the public would cost
between SIS and $40 billion and
said that the money could be
taken out Of the military budget
without harming national de-
fense.
Sherley Ewing of Pikesville,
Md. who is president Of the
National Association Of State
and Territorial Civil Defense
Directors, estimated that there
are now no more than 20 shell
ters in his State.

count Easements "where people
can take food down in event
