The first order of business was a survey of the coun ty with a complete check made of an nouses, ranches and buildings that might he used for sleeping accommodations and feeding fa cilities. The drive was snoarheaH- ed by the Business and Profes sional Women's Club, with the assistance of various grange or ganizations. All information was card filed. It is hoped that a com plete directory can be developed from this. Since the county is quite isolated from a telephone standpoint, the importance of radio facilities was determined. A two-year Droeram was planned and three mobile ra dios and six portable units were added to the county system in about six months. Later a 500 watt transmitter was added to the communication center in the coun ty yards. Both state and federal aid were received on most ot the radio purchases. The director was able to borrow some receiving sets and accumulated some usable transmitters from surplus. A spe cial receiver was acquired on the state police frequency so that the lire nan could obtain information immediately on stolen cars and other items. Under the tutelage of Bvrnn Warburton, a radio class was held for several months with good re sults, so that there are a number of amateur radio operators able to handle the civil defense net for communications efficiency. Radio pians tor tne luture are to estab lish a repeater system on Round Pass Mountain. This would aid the top half of the county in case of emergency. , . In order to receive the 3.000 to 5.000 outsiders in case of an at tack, the state agency is furnish ing the county with two complete cooking outfits, geared for the feeding of 500 people at one time. Also promised is at least one portable hospital, with a 500-bed facility, complete with power plant, surgical instruments and a fairly complete stock . of drugs. niucn progress has been made in the training of women in home nursing arid first aid, under the direction of Mrs. Edith Laird. The Red Cross has also done an ex cellent job in sponsoring first aid training classes. Standby power plants are to be acquired. Two small plants are now established to handle the communication center and can be used as portable outfits. For search and rescue activities four jeeps were acquired through surplus. One of these is used by the director and is radio-equipped. An Army weasel was also acquired, . for use during heavy snows and for transportation to the radio installation on Black Cap peak, east of town. A plane crash in the high mountains could also prove this vehicle of inestimable value. . Through the matching funds pro visions of the state and federal civil defense agencies, the county has acquired the minimum equip ment for radio monitoring and has started to accumulate personal dosimeters. It is hoped that by the end of the fiscal year it will be possible to equip all personnel with dosimeters and to have suf ficient monitoring units that three or lour squads could , be main tained in case of sn attack. In order to assist in law en forcement, the county has ac quired some police equipment which may be issued at the re quest of the sheriff. It has been the practice of Lake County's civil defense officials to acquire materials and equipment that can be used, for the most part, in local situations and for local events. It is not possible to prepare fop emergencies without stocking some articles which do not have everyday use. McKinney said, but the county stock is. for the most nart, quite useful in everyday life.
