- Owing to the comparable ineffec

been used in Korea the past two

(1) What Is the Defense Against
Ordinary Bombing?
Naturally, the fighter-plane is the
best defense against the bomber-
plane. This means

(2) What k the Defense Against
Ahomic Bombing?
The original atomic bomb, such
as used in Hiroshima in 1945, has
been greatly “improved” by increas

reducing the size of the bomb and
was understood.
In Clinton Thursday free and con
fidential tests may be had by any
person 12 years old and older, at
the following places: 11 a. m. to 7

Radar is supposed to give cities
warning against such bombing; but
the time element is very short. The
sad fact is that the destrcctive pow
er of atomic bombing is terrific;
and, thus Car, almost no practical
defense now exists against such.
There is also the “H,” or hydro

structive. These could be dropped

oi Evacuation?
If evacuation is the only
tion against atomic bombing, why
don’t we hear more about it? The
reason is twofold. The first reason is
the great expense of making ar
rangements in advance for the mass
evacuation of a large city. This
would require rebuilding of roads
for exit, provision for underground
bomb shelters, and the necessary
temporary housing and feeding fa
cilities, outside the cities. About
20,000,000 people are now living in
the twelve U. S. cities which our
Government has listed as most vul
nerable.
The second reason is the opposi
tion of real estate and other busi
ness interests to talk about evacua
tion. The Chambers of Commerce,
the Real Estate Boards, and the
-Builders Associations of these 12
cities will not discuss mass emer
gency evacuation. They are ter
ribly fearful that such plans would
so frighten people as to start evacu
ation now!
The^Sdvertisement in today’s is
sue, according to company officials,
inaugurates “a similar but entirely
new program to be published dur
ing the coming year in outstanding
weekly newspapres in the two Car-
olinas.” '
The Liberty Life office in Clin
ton is manged by Ratchford W. Bo
land and is located in the First Na
tional Bank Building. The company,
which has in excess of $564,000,000
of insurance in force and 67,000,000
in total resources, maintains ap
proximately 100 branch offices
throughout the Southeast and has
over 1000 field representatives and
home office employees.

(4) Is Decentralization Sorely
Coining?
I cannot believe, as many do, that
the big cities are already “dead
ducks”. I, however, do believe that
decentralization is to become an im
portant industry. It offers great op
portunities to real estate interests,
builders and other businessmen.
Farm land within 30 miles of large
cities will double in value. This
rural land will be used for new
homes, new shopping centers, new
factories and new office buildings.
One more thought: The present
“Businessman’s’* Administration at
Washington cannot afford a business
depression now. Obsolescence puts
a limit to the bombs and airplanes
which may be made now to hold in
reserve. As the expenditures for
the above and other military sup
plies will be reduced, a great Cam
paign of Decentralization may be
substituted fti its place. This could
give business another read “shot-An-
the-arm.” Moreover, the country
as a whole, especially the small cit
ies, should permanently benefit
from such expenditures.
COFFEE POT
The coffee pot should be thor-
ougly boiled out, with a solution
of baking soda added to the water,
at least once a week.
CRACKS in FLOOR
For filling cracks in the floor,
soak old newspapers in strong
alum water until they form a soft
pulp, and press hard into the
cracks. This method is more suc
cessful than using putty, and when
the hardened pulp is covered with
paint, will hardly show.
