Stuart ForbeS, at county coun- cil, Although suggesting por- table generators as a possible solution to the problem in event of a recurrence, Mr. Forbes warned that each individual must think about it and make some separate provision for these problems.. "Thirty years ago we were self-sufficient, heating with coal," said Reeve Elgin Thornp* son of Tuckersmith. "Has the committee any idea of what would happen in the case of a long blackout?" "1 think you will find the government can supply organi- zation, equipment and know- how," Mr, Forbes replied, "but the plan boils down to the in- dividual and what he has pre» pared for himself. If this was a long blackout you would have to revert to the conditions of 25 years ago, 1 think the porta- ble generator is the answer to a power failure." "It means a lot of us would have to have power plants, " re- marked Reeve Thompson. Modern farm machinery is equipped with safety shields and guards to protect the operators. Safeguards left in the tool shed cannot do the job.
