Nikita Admits Nuclear
Blasts Harm To Health
MOSCOW (AP) Soviet Premierlinto a needlessly fast response on
Khrushchev told a cluster ot the Berlin nuestinn. But vihenl
newsmen at a reception that the
Soviet Union will drop nuclear
testing "when the others stop.
Earlier today, he acknowledged
that nuclear testing is harmful to
health.
"We will stop when the others
stop," Khrushchev said in an
swer to a question by correspond
ents. "If the West continues test
ing 'there will be more tests!
here."
This was a reflection of the So
viet device of blaming the West
for beginning the testing of nil
clear weapons, although actually
the moratorium was broken by
the Soviet Union.
To further questions at a party
honoring the 4th anniversary of
the Bolshevik Revolution, Khrush
chev also said the Soviet Union
does not want to hustle the West
asked how long the Soviet Union!
would wait he replied, "Not in'
definitely."
He conceded nuclear tests are
harmful to health but insisted
universal disarmament is the
only answer.
"There is talk of the harmful
affects of experimental nuclear
explosions on peoples' health,'
the Soviet premier was quoted by
the soviet News agency Tass.
"Yes, it has been scientifically
established that they are harmful
to health.
"But the use of nuclear weapons
in war is a million times mofe
dangerous, not only for the peo
ples' health but for the very lives
of people for it is clear that
these weapons are not being pro
duced to be kept in storage."

My $30 fallout shelter consists of
a hole In a backyard hill, bags of
dirt, and some railroad ties.
Anyone with a basement is
lucky he could build a shelter
more easily, and perhaps more
cheaply.
My costs were:
Burlap bags $11.00
Nylon string and Jieedle to
sew bags 1.00
Railroad ties 9.00
Trucking in the ties 7.00
Zinc chromate to treat
burlap bags 2.00
Total: $30.00
1 dug horizontally into the slope
of the hill, and put the dirt
bags, using them to build walls
five feet high on both sides to
make an enclosure of about four
by six feet.
Another wall in front, with an
offset, provides a door. It's wide
open. Radiation from fallout can
not go around corners but peo
ple can to.get in or out.
Railroad ties are the roof beams,
with a two-foot lover of dirt-filled
bags resting on top. That gives 28
inches thickness of dirt and wood.
A corner of your basement
would provide two ready-made
walls with a few feet of dirt or
sandbags piled up outside. Then
build walls consisting of sandbags
or concrete blocks Wi to two feet
thick, again with an offset en
trance. The roof and upper stories of a
house would keep much fallout

An air filter for the shelter is
good idea, but not absolutely
necessary. Some radioactive dust
might seep In, but probably not

in significant amounts through or
dinary air circulation.
An essential item is a radiation
meter. Unfortunately, ettective
ones still cost about $23. It is
needed to tell you if seeping dust
is reaching dangerous levels. If
so. sweep it out with a broom.
Fallout eventually becomes ordi
nary dirt. But you must avoid or
get rid of it while it is radioactive.
Try Sleeping Pills .
The man wjth the expensive
shelte'V could unwittingly track ra
dioactive dust into his shelter on
trips in and out, and so concen
trate dangerous amounts, unless
he knew about this hazard. So
everyone needs a broom as well
as a' meter.
You should plan to stay inside
your shelter at least 48 hours. Sup
pose fallout descends an hour aft
er the burst. In seven more hours,
it is only 10 pr cent as intense
as it was when it first landed. And
4!) hours after the burst, or 48
hours after landing, only one
per cent of the jiltlal radioactivity
remains.
In the next 12 davs, it declines
to become only one-tenth of one
wr cent of the initial Intensity.
This is considered a safe level to
permit moving about.
Forty eight hours in a small,
cramped shelter or hole is no pic-1

You might well take sleeping

OLYMPIA (AP - Washington
generated mote than three times
as much electric power as Oregon
last year, the Washington Depart
ment of Conservation reports.
The agency said 38 million kilo
watt hours, or M per cent of the
total for the Pacific Northwest,
were generated in Washington. PJ.
that amount 4.3 million was
turned out by private utilities
Oregon generated 11:7 million
kilowatt hours, or 21 per cent of
the total, the agency said. The
amount included 4.2 million kilo
watt hours from private sources
Idaho generated 9 per cent and
Montana 5 per cent of the Pacific
Northwest total of 55 million kilo
watt hours.
i,iie agency also released a
comparison to show that electric
rates charged by mutuals and co
operatives average 1.27 cents a'
kilowatt hour, rates of private
utilities average 1.22 cents, public
utility districts 1 cent, municipal
utilities 0G mills and irrigation
districts 75 mills.
Truman P. Price, supervisor of
power resources, said the main
reason cooperatives charge rela-l
lively high rates is that they1
serve mostly rural areas with
high distribution costs.
The lowest char ge In a compari
son of typical electric bills for
1.000 kilowatt hours a month was

MUNICH. Germany (AP)
Charges of murdering Nazi sol
diers in occupied Yugoslavia were
dropped today against ex-partisan
Lazo Vracarlc. The West German
government apologized for his ar
rest on a 1941 warrant.
Officials returned Vracaric's
Yugoslav passport and told him
the case against him has been
wiped off the hooks. His arrest
here last Tuesday while on
business trip had brought a wave
of protests from officials and vet
lerans groups abroad, particular
ly from countries that were oc

CHICAGO (UPI) The Air Line
Pilots Association todny set
strike deadline against Pan Amer
ican Airways or Friday night.
In a telegram to the airline,
the ALPA fluid PAA pilots "would
walk off their lobs at 11:59 p.m,
local lime Friday night to back
contract demands.
The ALPA said It would ar
range with the company to oper
ate all essential military or pub'

PAA employes about 1.400 pilots!
and is the United Stales' largest
International carrier, flying fromi
12 U.S. cities to 58 countries and
U.S. territories.
C. N. Snyen. ALPA prcsldont.
said the action was being "taken
reluctantly by the PAA pilots be
cause failure of the prolonged ne
gotiations, mediation and fact
finding left them no other alter

The ALPA, Snyeh said, had ex
hausted all procedures during tile
past 17 months under the Hallway
Labor Act and "no agreement of
substances has been reached on
rules, working conditions, and pay
proposals.. .and no further negotia

Among the important unresolved
Issues, he said, are the establish
