Steps lo Consider ' o
Here are the steps the FCEA
suggests should be3 considered in
selecting a "life preserver" home
shelter:
1. Ifoyou live within 19 min
utes of the downtown section
of a large city, ypu rrJed sub
stantial protection against blfpt.
heat, and nucl&ar radiatiijn. For
lowest cost if your h8me has a
basement, choose a corner in it
nearest the probable target area
to build your shelter.
It shofild be strong enough to
withstand the blast pressure and
to support the debris load if your
house should collapseYour shel
ter also should have enough
shielding material around, and
oveP it to reduce nuclear radia
tion to safe levels. This shield
ing may be provided by such

The ordinary home will reduco
radStioi by only 8nje-half. Ra
diation f?i the average basement
willdbe not less thanol-10th that
outside. On the other hand, three
feet of earth over a typical root
cellar or low-ost backyard shel
ter, will reduce tol-5.CW0t the
radiation of tffat outflde. This
considered adequate. '
6tKr S,uppliet
Persons in such shelters would
be able to leave within a reason
able time after attack.
Yet some time mus,t be spent
in any shelter. Provision? there
fore, iust be made for fiiis stay.
Of prime importance would be
a portable, battery type radio as
the onlv Source of official Civil
Defense information and instruc
tions. There also should be a
first did kit in or near the shel
ter well as a seven-day supply
of food and water. Other sup
plies needed would in elude
blankets, warm clgthiijg, pliers
