"It has been clarified," stat- ed the committee report, "that immediately an alert should take place, everyone is to take cover until the 'all clear' is given. Previously we were all under the impression that the key personnel were to man the basement of the courthouse in event of an emergency; howev- er, this is not the case. The basement is to be manned when the 'all clear' is given, and peo- ple are able to come out from cover for a short period of time at least, and are to await their instructions." of the EMD co-ordinators say there would not be casualties," said Reeve Morgan Agnew, of Clinton, in presenting to Huron County Council the report of his emergency measure commit- tee. "We are bound to have casualties, but we can minimize them a great deal if we operate on our own. Self-preservation is predominant among us all." The chairman related some incidents experienced at the front in wartime to illustrate his point. "We would appreciate it if the planning committee would have a little more' co-operation," he said. "Of course it was not clear in people's minds what to do. This is a very necessary thing. If you listened last night to the London program by the Middlesex co-ordinator, you will see it is a complicated affair. There is much to do to keep roads open, because there will be much going through when the all -clear is sounded." "The initial warning," Huron co-ordinator Murray MacDon- ald said later, "is just to turn on your radio and make any preparations not previously at- tended to. Then there will be an announcement from the Prime Minister, or the Premier, or failing him, the warden." Mr. ,Agnew's committee has agreed to purchase for the courthouse basement food sup- plies for 14 days, pressure -style lamps, stove, beds, etc., suffici- ent for personnel numbering 30. It has been agreed that tele- phone jacks will be installed, .w.11;ri;rlurl;rryrll;rrjerk ;r}I;1"iu'i;wl,wl;rA;A.,I ;AY :wirl1‘..r.�I;r1�r}:µ 7 VodlpYour o, AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR YOUR FAMILY! - Build your own RECREATION ROOM For a Low Monthly Payment Just call Seaforth .Lumber Lt Every family needs the casual comfort of a recreation rdom.

Then it will be the duty of the planning committee personnel to. organize their du- ties in co-operation with the co- ordinator and the• people so named by him." "The community group or- ganization," said Mr. MacDon- ald, " has had one year of op- eration, and is now in opera- tion to a degree in Goderich and Wingham and to a lesser degree in Exeter. The communi- cation plan has been approved. Emergent headquarters of the county should be completed by the end of December. Recep- tion area plans are resolved and approved by zone and province, and are being used as p guide by the province. A survey of population has been done by age, trade and sex, buildings completed for accommodation, and a survey made as to hospi- tal accommodation. "From the public education point of view, more than 50 books have been given to groups this year. Visits to towns, meeting municipal offi- cials, have been completed. There have been 12 television programs to a district which includes Bruce, Grey, Middle- sex. Wellington and Lambton. A continuous supply of publica- tions has been established in each library. We had exhibits at the trade fairs in Wingham and Goderich. "A new bylaw has been pass- ed, based on our experience, and of course is still on trial. "Zone C1 of the Royal Cana- dian Legion has pledged full support in emergency, and St. John Ambulance in the area. "Mr. MacNaughton spoke to me in Clinton last evening and said that this had set quite an example at the provincial level. "We have hit both sides of a pendulum swing in the past year. We heard it expressed at one time that EMO was not needed, and then in the Khrush- chev-Cuban crisis the enthus- iasm went the other way. Both were, good for us, and showed how adequately or inadequately we weire•prepared at municipal level and the individual family unit. We have gained much, "There are only two or three shelters in .our couhty. I would. say there are hundreds of base- ments and first floors prepared. There has been a lot of gain from these crises, which could well be a• blessing in disguise. Now the Indians and Chinese are going to have a cease fire. but in both trouble spots the parties are still armed with lethal weapons. Khrushchev has' a specific aim, but it is domina- tion of the world. We had a few hunters killed this fall, and by accident we could have a war, t&ecease both international hunters have their weapons still. "I think we can safely say we are not behind any of the other counties. I forecast that this year we would have a fair- ly cheap year. We did not spend our full budget, but I feel now we have the experi- ence we should in the coming year spend every penny we can get. After two years, cost should go down." Reeve Roy Adair: "When we set up this local organization— we are organized in Exeter, but the man chosen cannot continue —when organized again is .there any way the man chosen has money coming from county • or local level for expenses?" Mr. ,MacDonald: "The ma- jority should ,come from the county, and toward the ,end of this month I will be asking 'or- ganized communities for an outline of what they want to do, involving expenditure, and that will be included in, my budget." Mrs. Mooney, deputy reeve of Goderich: "I have been asked how the alert is going to be given in Goderich." Mr. MacDonald: "I do not know. I suggested the same as in the Wingham group, that is, returning to the old fire bell; and also the Presbyterian church has a carillon loud speaker. Initially, the thing will be bell -and fire bell." To Reeve Valentine Becker, of Hay, Mr. MacDonald said that Huronview at Clinton "is probably the most adequately secure building in the county. The whole staff could move in .and function from the base- ment. Emergency hospitals will be in Wingham and Goderich high schools. I have surveyed only three hospitals, and Wing - ham is most advanced." Remember, it takes 'but a moment to place an Expositor Want Ad and be money in pocket. To advertise, just phone Seaforth 141.
