Speed and Efficiency Led Civil Defense Talk
Dr. William E. Warner Ohio civil defense executive director spoke at the Rotary Club on organization for survival. He said civil defense differs from military defense and hinges on speed and efficiency to minimize damage through coordinated government action, with focus on protection from bombs, sabotage, and biological threats. He warned against panic, stressed resource dispersal, clear communications, central coordination, and rapid training, noting Ohio’s front yard of critical areas and substantial plant security spending. Guests included city manager J. R. Barrett and city commissioners, county officials, and police and highway patrol chiefs.
