Canned Foods Protect
Against All Forms Of
Emergency Threat

Canned foods offer the public
their best food supply under con.
ditions that may result from ato-
mic, biological or chemical war.
fare, it was stated in Philadelphia
this week by John c. Hemingway
Clyde, N. Y, president of the Ma
tional Gamers Association, at the
5Sth Annual Convention of the Tri-
State Packers Association.
Civil Defense planners. MIR
Hemingway stated, recognize the
Importance of protectively pack
aged foods in emergencies. Her
metically sealed tin and glass con-
tainers provide the most complete
protection against any kind OF
warfare that may create a SER

A lot has been said recently
about the essentially of canned
foods under nuclear situations, but
their desirability under these other
types of threat should not be over

Committee on Civil Defense has
supervised construction of a 700
man shelter against fail out, germs
and nerve gas. In the press re-
lease announcing the completion
of this shelter in Washington, the
A. c. S. pointed out that Army ra-
tions and canned fruits and vege-
tables are on the list of supplies
to be stored away in the shelter.
Canned foods are therefore an
essential commodity in all forms
of civil defense, Mr.. Hemingway
stated. I'm their packaged form
they supply safe foods in both SOL

variety, and provide balanced nu-
triton for the indefinite periods
that may be expected as the re-

satisfaction of their drink require
ments in an emergency area will
be of Importance second only to
that of medical care, and the inn
mediate availability of an uncon-
taminated food supply will become
a requirement for the population, y
he said.
In connection with atomic war
fare, Mr.. Hemingway explained,
the food must be protected against
fallout or radioactive dust" All
canned foods which remain intact
will be fit for consumption, while
other foods not so protected may
be dangerous. 1t will be neces-
sary, he said, to guard against ra-
dioactivity from the dust on the
exterior of the cOntainer, and both
tin and glass packages are adapt
ed for quick and thorough clean
ing.
These claims are based on off
cial reports of the Atomic Energy
Commission, the Food and Drug
Administration, the Army, and the
Civil Defense agencies, issued fol-
lowing the tests of canned foods
under nuclear blast conditions at
Yucca Flat in 1855, where they
were found to be blast-resistant,
radio activity-resistant, and to re-
tain their nutrient values after
TOng-ran.ge tests of exposed sam
pies.
The same protection, he stated,
exists in regard to agents employ
ed in biological warfare, and the
facility OF cleaning hermetically
sealed containers will be of great
advantage.
''The built-in features they pos
sess, such as balanced nutrition,
great variety, and liquid content,
coupled with the ease of attaining
external protection, give canned
foods unique Importance in meet
ing the problem of emergency sub
sistence. They would be morale
builders under the conditions of
shelter life" he said

The answer came from readers,

The curate's friend is an an

In the good old days it would
stand by the curate's chair at
afternoon tea parties. He could
help himself unObtrusively to the

His stipend was minute, and the
