Clwil Def .. se By R. Hal Silvel'8

Clvn Defense Dil'ector

(The Greenbelt News Review has agreed as an added publ-i-c service to publish a C-ivil De­fense Column to help enlighten its readers re the necessity for having a strong and efficient Civil Defense organization.

Th4s column will attempt to describe the organization and operation~: of the Prince Georges County C'i'L'il Defen.<te Agency which wa.~ recently establi.sherl by your County Commission­ers.)

Functions of Civil Defense If there should be an atomic at­

tack on the United States, the ci­vilian population would probably cl:'me under attack immediately. Our principal cities would prob­ably be hit simultaneously.

Our survival will depend on the ability of our civilians to recover as rapidly as possible after the first blow.

Civil Defense also has the addi­tional duty of combating natural disasters and consequently Civil Defense goes Into action whether an area has been devastated by a tornado, hurricane or by a nuclear bomb.

Civil Defense Is buleally the voluntary efforts of people. Indi­vidually and in groups, together with local, State and Ff!'deral gov­ernmental department. and agen­cies, to protect themaelves, thr!r famllles. homes as well as com­mercial and lndu.atrlal •!lltabli sh· menta and other community faclll· ties such as schools and recr~a­tlonal and 80Ci&r qendes qalnat the effect. of warfore and natural dlsastera.

An Old Amerteaa Conc!ept In AeUon This concP.pl of protection Is n()t

a new one In the American way of life. In colonial times our torl!l'­fathers banded topoth~r to fight otr their enemies; .they ,_.ent in groups to help each other clr.ar land for a new farm in t.he wildf'r· neu; they mutually aolved their problems In the old town lllt!f!ting. In more recent times this concept is exeompllfted ln the mutual aJd of the threshing e~ eonslsttnw ot neighboring larmera helpiJns ea.ch other. The volunteer ftre depart­ment that many commnnltJea ba\•c­ls another form Jn whleh :t~ Idea Is expreued.

CI.UDefeueua......._t to ..... , .....

We are vulne\able today beocaullle ot technical developme.nts In war­fare since World War 11. We may be more vulnerable tomorrow u these advnncements In warfare continue. Our long-ranp c:ivU de-­fense plaDnlng must continue ..o Jonw .. the peace or the wodd ill threatened. Wha~ Ia long-ranp elvtl dofense "!

PlucJcy Variety Sto~e Runs Out oJ Gas; Service St:ation Has Plenty· For Title

Varit"ty Store needed three w:ins in 4 row to tiE• Scn'ice ~tatio~ for Co-op's Babe Ruth League fil'flt-half championship.

The little "Fon· Horn" walkt>d 9 Gas­men but was miserly In the matter ot doling •3ut base-hits-just three. He struck out 7 In chalking up the firRt shut-•3ut of the BRL aeaaon. Vau~hn was a hit of. okay with

a ·bat In his fists, too. The rookie hurler got two hits, one a triple, oft losln.r-pltchers Bobby McGloth­lin. Tall Billy Morin and short Donnie Elltep also rapped out two safeties oft' McGiothl;n, All three of the.'Je h:itters talJJed twice.

Greenbelt residents can ·attend: th«' swimming pool Jn the evening hours at a 2 for 1 rate, the ~ity council decided last Monday night. · A child can attend the pool free lf' accompanied by an adult who pay,s full admission, under the .same.· plan. . .

The council action, following the recommendation of the citizens' recreation advisory board, includ-. ed a proposal to permit one bus­load of children from the county playground program each day. However, it was learned that the county swimming program had stopped for the remainder of .. t.be season.

City manager Charles McDonald disclosed that attendance at the swimming pool has dropped an av· erage of 17 adults a day since the bus-loads of children have halted. He added that a season slump is customary during August, how­ever.

The advisory board's report also recommended for the 1956 season a family subscription plan to be ba.aed on a "minimum operation ftgure .. tor the swimming pool after a review by the city manager: and the inclusion or the operation ot the poOl into the dty tax structure and yearly budget.

"It is the opinion of the Advisory Committee that there Is not a :resi.:. dentlal CLAMOR being made with reference to the swimming pool, but that a small group is attempt­in" to make It a town issue," the report declared. ~er suggestions that "merit consideration" ar9 changing closing hours from 5-8 p.m. to 4;,5 p.m., to permit a longer ~nvlmmlng period In the evening fr-om 5 to 8:30 p.m.

The report was signed by Robert Halpin. acting chairman, and read by Allen Chotiner, chairman.
