WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 195B HERALD ANT) NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE FIWKKN Radioactive Fallout Described WASHINGTON Wl Dr. Ralph E. Lapp said Tuesday radioactive fallout from an H-bomb could make a big target area unlivable , for several years . by peacetime ' standards. ' Lapp, a physicist and writer lecturer, said in remarks pre pared for a House Government Operations Subcommittee study ing civil defense: "Naturally, any person trapped In a fallout area, let's say he's lucky enough to seek a good shel ter, wants to know when It will be safe to emerge and resume normal' life above ground. PRONOUNCEMENTS ' "Official government pro nouncements imply that this might be 36 hours. In my estimate it Is much longer." - Lapp did not specify how long he thought it might be before an H-bombed area might be sale. He noted this would depend on many different circumstances, adding that in wartime "one is not apt . to pay much attention to peace time safety limits." , But under peacetime standards, and without decontamination measures, he said, "much of the fallout area would be denied to habitation for several years." "It must be stressed." Lapp said, "that no one has any prac tical experience In decontaminat ing thousands of square miles of territory." v ' i Lapp said that with the radia- ' tion danger from H-bombs, civil defense planning should be geared to an "evacuatlon-to-shelter" con- cept involving construction of per ipheral shelters and "the made do use of existing suburban struc tures." SUPER BOMBS The atomic scientist-author said 'super-bombs" may have a tem porary power limit of SO mega tons (force equivalent to that re leased by 50 million tons of TNT) because of present limits in bomb carrying capacity. The 60 megaton figure, pre viously mentioned in subcommit tee testimony, is 2.500 times as powerful as the World War II A bomb which destroyed Nagasaki BLESSING VATICAN CITY, Ifl Pope , Pius XII will impart his. blessing i "Urbl et orbl" (to Rome and the world) before pilgrims and Ro mans in St. Peter's square at noon Easter Day, April I, the Vatican secretariat of state announced Tuesday.

Murrow s See It Now CBS-TV offered an excellent, fair-minded study of the Egyptian-Israeli cri sis. On Wednesday came "The Twisted Cross" on NBC-TV. a doc umentary, largely In film, of Nazi Germany. On Sunday there appeared an excellent dramatization of Shaks peare's "Taminn of the "Shrew" on NBC-TV. On the same day CBS-TV presented a searching and dramatic study of the nature of mental illness, a documentary film entitled "Out of Darkness." Two Shakespeares and three documentaries may not strike some as great diversity, but the over-all effect on anyone who saw all the programs could not fall to impress. Even a year ago the two major networks were not engag ing in such Imaginative program ming. Each of these programs was good in a different way and' to compare them can be fallacious. Not all were equally popular with the public.

Murrow s study of the Egyptian-Israeli crisis trailed in third place compared to regularly scheduled programs on the other networks. Trendex reported. But the next evening "The Twisted Cross" on NBC shot iar ahead of Its competition, which In cluded a couple of very popular regular programs. This result.
