On Civil Defense
Problems Tuesday
(Continued from page 1)
The second problem concern
ed the emergency that would ex
ist following a nuclear attack
on Portland and the McNary
dam. and the group was asked
to consider tht local consequen
ces and what actions would be
imperative under the emergency
situation.
Fallout Considered
Finally, the third problem had
to do with fallout that would
come following a nuclear at
tack and how the community
must respond.
At the luncheon meeting In a
preliminary talk. Chase discus
sed the defenses of the rorth
American continent.
"There will not be another
Pearl Harbor because of our de
fenses," he said. He, explained
the DEW line (distant early
warning). BMEWS (ballistic
missile early warning) and the
umbrella of radar protection
provided by SAGE (semi-automatic
ground environment).
In explaining the magnitude
of nuclear potential. Chase said
that a one megaton bomb was
equivalent to one million tons
of TNT. This would be equiva
lent to a trainload of TNT 200
miles long, he said.
After the connection was made
with CoL James, a public infor
mation officer at NORAD head
quarters, the report was made
v tv,oro that three unidenti
fied aircraft had been spotted i

two of the cases, and in each
case the craft was determined
to be friendly.
Actual Report
Since this was an actual re
port and not a simulated one,
it brought pointed attention to
the continuous vigilance of the
nation's defenses.
Col. James said that NORAD
currently is also tracking 721
objects in space of which 192
are payloads (satellites) and
most of which are American,
while 529 are space debris.

Desert Entry act. was there rep
resenting the North Morrow
County Irrigation association
which has done some preliminary
work towards development stud
ies. Their filings, however, have
temporarily been somewhat
thwarted hy a group of Portland
ers who have filed on the lana
with the announced purpose of
developing it by Irrigation and
with the reputed backing ol
millions of dollars.
Teterson said that an engin
eers' study by the association he
represents is expected to be com
pleted next week so that a state
ment may be made to the county
court.
Should a Bureau of Reclama
tion project be developed, there
would be a 160- acre limit per
individual. Judge Jones said.
This is Just half that allowed on
BLM entry. Some opposition was
expressed to this limitation. Al
so under a Bureau of Reclama
tion project, the person must
live on the land.
