Fast recalls first atomic holocaust
j_
Four-day event reminds residents of blast victims,
sheds light on current hazards
By HEIDI SWILLINGER

Between 50 and 100 Eugene
residents will commemorate the
Hiroshima Nagasaki bombings
with a tour-day fast this week,
says organizer Dorothy Gran
ada
The purpose of the fast is to
remember victims of the first
nuclear holocaust. Granada
says
In addition, "we want to
educate people about the es
calating nuctear Arms race”
she says, - • *-->• -
Granada, a staff member of
First Step, the Eugene chapter
of the Non-Violent Tactics
Development Project, contends
that "we are daily being brought
much closer to a bigger
holocaust” than occurred at Hi
roshima and Nagasaki
Granada says organizers are
hoping to motivate people to
call for a nuclear arms freeze
between the United States and
the Soviet Union
"We need a freeze before the
first-strike weapons are in
place," Granada says, adding
that the "first-strike" MX,
Trident and cruise missiles are
classified as offensive rather
than retaliatory weapons
"They're no good as defen
sive weapons They're to be
used in an offensive war,"
According to Granada, a
weapons freeze is "essential"
within the next three years,
because after that time "it will
be extremely difficult, if not im
possible. to verify if the other
side is complying with the
freeze,” because the cruise
missiles are small enough to be
"hidden anywhere — haystacks,
barns, tractors or trucks. "
This will be the second year
Eugene has participated in the
commemoration, but Granada
says it has been held around the
country since 1945.
The international fast will be
observed in France, Germany,
Britain and Japan, as well as
more than 150 communities in
the United States, Granada
says
Those attempting the fast
should be in good health, she
says, and tasters should drink
plenty of the purest water
available
Granada advises tasters to
relieve themselves of as much
stress as possible, and she sug
gests taking time off from work
or finding a friend to take care of
children and meal responsibili
ties
The commemoration starts at
5:30 p m Wednesday with a
common meai for tasters and
supporters The fast begins on
Thursday and will end Sunday
with a candlelight walk to Alton
Baker Park.
A number of workshops, films
and discussions will be held
during the four-day period.
Childcare will be provided for
some of the activities.
The event is sponsored by
Citizen Action For Lasting
Security, Clergy and Laity Con
cerned, First Step and New Call
to Peacemaking
