(UPI Radiotelephoto) Institute of Decorators Works on Shelter Designs By GAY PAULEY " UPI Women's Editor New York -flJPD- The Amer ican Institute of Decorators hopes to make less grim the grim business of shelter in event : of atomic war. Thfe AID this week in troduced its s u g g e stions for radiation fallout shel- JLx&a ters., built to Gay Pauley .government specifications but designed to do double duty, from den to be a pleasant as well as pro tective haven. . . - , Six AID ' members from various regions of' the coun try drew plans lor rooms to mins and Mrs. Helen Clawson.

Nielsen, i Chicago, past president of the AID will be built to scale for- dis play at the semi-annual home furnishings market in. Chica go January 2-22. Color ren derings of the five other" rooms will be part of the ex hibit, which the AID worked out with the National Office of Civil and Defense Mobili zation. Nielsen's room meets the compact 12 feet by eight feet, six ' inches which civil de fense authorities say could shelter as many as six persons for two weeks, if equipped with food, water and sanitary facilities. Every Inch Used Nielson makes every inch do double duty and uses col-er-azure blue for the walls, natural walnut for the ceiling beams and storage sections, and varying shades of gray for sofas and floors. One wall comes with a made-to-order sofa, recessed in one of the long walls, and designed to double as a bed. A trundle bed for the child ren fits under it. And a third bunk cranks down from the ceiling, where it- is .stored when not in use. A -mural in cave dweller design and red, brown and gray tones adds depth, to the whole area. . A storage unit in the wall at one side of the sofa pro vides ' rooms for batteries, first aid kit, conelradio, trans istor television and space for reading matter. A part of tnis same long wall has a walnut facade which hides store room enough for two weeks supply of canned foods and their equipment. It revolves like a lazy susan for easy accessibil ity. . , Folding Cooking Unit A second bunk with stor age drawers underneath oc cupies part of the other long wall, where Nielson also made room for a comfort able arm chair, a combination work table and folding cook ing unit, and under-table stor age for folding chairs. He also recessed the water storage tank which is de signed to connect with the regular household supply but will store 40 gallons, in event the regular source is cut off. A lavatory unit, behind sliding door, can be convert ed to a chemical toilet in case of emergency. Nielson added a folding door blackboard and incorp orated a hopscotch board in the vinyl floor to help amuse the children. A stationary bicycle does double duty-it will provide exercise for the family, who aa they pedal also pump fresh air into the shelter through a radiation screening filter. Other decorators were Tom Lee New York, who did work and sewing room; Jack M. Rees, of Kansas City, who equipped a shelter as a fun room; Mrs. Dorothy H. Paul, Los Angeles; hobby room; Haygood J.
