Washington (UPD The gov ernment has no hope of pre venting "tens of millions" of deaths in blast areas in the event of an all-out nuclear attack. What it wants to do, accord ing to the nation's civil de fense chief, is to have fallout shelters for people who are lo cated where there is only fall out radiation. Nothing can be done for those close to the explosions, he said. Assistant Defense Secre tary Steuart L. Pittman, in charge of civil defense, said "There is probably no shelter construction that we know of that is practical and within reach," which would save people in the immediate area of a nuclear blast. "We don't hope to save the lives of the millions of people who will be exposed to the direct effects of the explo sions," Pittman said in a tele vision interview ABC-Youth Wants to Know. Although there would be tremendous loss of life in a nuclear attack, Pittman said, a "complete fallout shelter system would save from 40 million to 120 million persons from death by fallout.

"I think that most people assume that New York and all the large cities would be hit.1' he said. "This is much less certain than is commonly sup posed." The government, he said, was placing "very little reli ance on home shelters as a so lution to the problem the Sizable Losses Noted At Close Of Market Today JAPANESE RAILWAY TUNNEL OPENED Tokyo-iliPluTh fifth longest railway tunnel in the world was opened Sunday between Tsurgua and Imajo on the north coast of central Japan.
