Rlaph Richards of the Soli Conservation Service and Ross, Ihe Soil Conservation engineer of Bend, showed a map with six tentative reservoir sites for con taining water from the nuclear plant. These would range up to 2.000 surface acres, and all would require darns. They would be at elevations of .some tJOO 800 feet.

Thus, it I fig ured that there would be some two hours and 15 minutes avail id le to travel and paik at a shelter rehire fallout is likely to reach the rountv. Some would chou" to use or improvise private belters rath er than to go to the public shel ti rs. In cae of a Jarre wale enemy nuilear attack, fallout would present Ihe fur greatest danger to the citizenry. Watson said. Some Wi of the land area would be dangerously affected b fallout radiation. Coder the school hours plan, shelter space would be set aside for children, but under the peak peak plan there is no particular priority for school children. Much of the discussion at tlv meeting Thursday night center ed on Ihe welfare of children and attempting to determine the reaction of parents whose first impulse would be to find their children. With this in view. he committee felt that the pro visions of the school hours plan should apply if an attack came during school hours, since they would be sheltered in space available and parents could know that they were safe. However, in lone, where there Is insufficient approved space to accommodate even the school population, this could not reas- nablv apply, so the peak-peak plan would be in effect at all tines there as it would in other areas, except in Heppner where the school hours plan would ap ply during school hours. Members of the committee ex pressed the feeling that steps should be taken to provide for adequate shelter space here. Judge Paul Jones said that he believes that temporary shelters affording adequate protection could he constructed at a cost of $2 to $3 per person. As a result of the discussion and recommendations, the plan will be worked out in detail and the information will be distrib uted through brochures to Hie public, who then will be advis ed what to do and where to go if an attack should occur.

Paternotte saya, "and it Is preferred that they are all in the same business more or less." The trips can be arranged by writing Maupin Tours, Law rence, Kansas, which arranges such details as accommodations and air fares The inquiries should be made to Peggy Fisher. "And mention Paternotte's name," adds Dick. The person who arranges for the tour nets as delegation host. While his expenses are paid, "he earns it." in the words of Krebs. He handles all the correspond ence, communications and oth er details among the members of the tour. A Spokane tourist rranged the European Jaurt last summer.

By American standards, the first class hotels In Russia may be a little less than that, but they are the best available. Paternotte said that he had to be back In Belgium by March 31. but from his frank admira tion of this country, one got the idea that some day he might like to lead People-to-People tours of Europeans to America. r" ...AND 10 THINK, 0NIY AWCCK AGO YOJ MERC UUD UP IN BCD.' 1 YOU TOOK SUCH C000 CARE OF ME NlTH THOSE SICK.
