-Four DefenSeS
Against Radiation

State College, Miss. - The
four life saving words in event
of a nuclear war may be dis
lance, time, shielding, and de-
contamination.
Each of these is an important
defense against the dangers Of
radiation, according to Charles
w. Sappington, rural defense
specialist of the Cooperative
Extension Service.
Distance from the source Of
radiation gives protection from
that source Of radiation. As dis
tance increases, the intensity
Of the radiation from that
source decreases, he explained.
This is important in finding the
safest place in a large building.
Usually it is safer near the
center of the building than it is
near one Of the walls, because
of the increased distance from
the radioactive fallout particles.
Time is one of the most i'm
portant defenses against radia-
ton. Radioactivity can't be de-
stroyed; it must be allowed to
decay. The decaying process
happens with the passage of
time.
The rule for radioactive decay
is that as the time after the
explosion is multiplied by
seven, the intensity rate of the
radiation is divided by ten. For
example, the intensity of the
radiation at seven hours after a

ness of that material that will
reduce the radiation exposure
by one-half. Three and half
inches of earth or two and a
quarter inches of concrete will
do this. Therefore, each time
that this amount of earth or
concrete is added to a fallout
shelter, the amount of protec-
ton provided by the shelter
is doubled.

Greyhound Profit
Rises in Quarter

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP).-
Melvin C. Frailey, president of
the Greyhound Corp, told the
annual stockholders meeting
yesterday that first quarter
earnings and revenues rose
substantially.
Mr.. Frailey said first quarter
net consolidated income will
run about $4,924,OO0 compared
with $3,670,00O in the first
quarter of 1862, or about 30
cents a share, compared with
81 cents in the like quarter of
last year.
"Your company is in the best
financial health in its history"
Mr.. Frailey said. I'VE are vir-
tually free of debt except fol
some notes taken up a number
of years ago."
He said the Boothe Leasing
Corp, acquired in 1862 by
Greyhound, has afforded the
company a good outlet for the
Investment of its accumulated
cash funds. He quoted D. P.
Boothe, jr., president of Boothe
Leasing, as estimating Boothe
would double its last years
earnings in 1868. The 1862
earnings were $853,820, about
double the 1861 figure.
Mr.. Boothe told the stock

mum, glass and plastics.
Mr.. Suits said plastics, once con-
sidered novelty decorative ma
terials, rapidly are finding struc-
tural uses of real consequence and
give promise Of great future ad-
vances.
Although polymers (plasticS)
have not yet taken over major
structural parts of automobiles,
their use is growing rapidly in
that industry, and meanwhile they
have gone a long way down the
road in the case of home ap-
planes" he said.
Mr.. Suits said that on a cubic
footage basis, although not on a
weight basis, uses Of plasticS in the
Unitkd States already approach
those Of steel, and plastic costs
are coming down.
Automakers now consume more
steel than any industry except con-
struction. Makers of refrigerators,
kitchen ranges and other home
appliances also are heavy steel
consumers.
