Duff Defense Speech Draws Mixed Reaction
Harrisburg January 1951 Gov James H Duff warned that local communities must bear most civil defense costs as federal and state aid cannot cover the burden. The address to the 1951 legislature drew mixed reactions from Republicans and Democrats, with some praising the analysis and others fearing municipal strain. Duff urged each community to organize its own civil defense and prepare for possible atomic or biological attacks, noting immunity cannot be guaranteed. He praised the initiative but warned of privations and continued national risk.
